Morning, all!
I’m running out of things to call random collections of Freeper drivel, but random seems to be the natural order of things in Freepistan. Let’s suit up and make sure all fittings and hoses are tight , because the first terrible tidbit really smells – I call it –Reeking havoc!
Ron Paul supporters arrested as La GOP Shreveport convention splits in two

Chaos erupted in Shreveport today as police officers arrested state GOP delegates who support Ron Paul for the party’s 2012 presidential nomination.
The dispute arose after the state party’s central committee issued “supplemental rules” earlier this week concerning the delegate selection process. A press release from the Ron Paul campaign this afternoon referred to the 11th hour changes as “illegal rules.”
After fights in the Rules Committee Friday, state party chairman opened the convention moving to pass the new rules, when the majority of delegates moved to elect a new convention chair. When Villere refused to yield the dais, the majority elected a new chair and turned their chairs. As this was happening, the Villere faction convinced the Shreveport Police Department to arrest some of the Paul delegates holding microphones for “trespassing.”
During the forcible arrests, Shreveport police dislocated the hip of the gentlemen in the video here, identified by the Paul campaign as State Central Commiteeman Henry Herford Jr. of Franklin Parish.

Louisiana politics!Henry Herford Jr. was elected by an overwhelming majority as new convention chair. Mr. Villere, who had appointed himself the convention chairman, refused to yield. When delegates began turning their chairs around, Mr. Herford rose to call the convention to order. Mr. Villere then convinces police to forceably remove Mr. Herford, who is injured and sent to the hospital! Video at source.(My first post. Member since 2004!)
