Kudos to the RP delegates for keeping as cool as they did.

it wasn't easy. i was having major trouble controlling myself at points. thankfully- i packed myself in the middle of an aisle.

So did we win the state?

magic eight ball says Yes!
but we won't know until credentials if we make it. (though a romney representative talked with our delegates and promised to aid them)
for right now we have 27 delegates romneybots 16

What happened after people turned their chairs around? Did they try to elect a bullshit slate of delegates to compete with the official slate?

Anyone here do blogs or citizens Media or have connections?

Can we get a story on how the Police policies and actions are are effecting the conventions? This is now I think a few times and Ron Paul's side has been the victim.
I too tried to find out some info on Shreveport PD FaceBook, but it is all being quickly censured or deleted.
These tactics need to be taken into account before everything done now, especially TAMPA!

we turned our chairs around to recognize/face our new chair as the old one would not stop blabbing into his mic.
we turned the back of the convention into a new front and continued.

I have no clue what is happening in any of these videos.

I am confused. What's with the Star of David?

NAZI party designated that jews wear a star of david patch on their clothes to single them out.

"...then they fight you" part really started?

Does he got insurance? What are going to be his medical costs?

There is no getting away with a typo on RPF!

Oh yes there is. If I wanted to, I could spend 24/7 pointing them out, and still only get about 3% of them. It's almost like no one here is a native speaker of English. Either that, or they just don't care, or maybe are doing their best to make every possible error for the purpose of making RP supporters look stupid to all the forum guests.

He will have to pay them and hope he has money left to post bond because once he gets out of the hospital he will hauled right off to the state cages.

Roger Villere is the name of the ego-maniac with the god-emperor complex.

I hope he is personally sued to the point he has nothing left and is homeless.

BRILLIANT!

Or speaking is an art form and writing to post is another art form and does not need to follow any predicated set of grammatical rules and like you said 'native speaker of English' wouldn't be a requirement, would it?

Those guys that were assaulted by the cops were obviously just a couple of those nutty Ron Paul supporters that had just climbed out of their Mom's basement with a joint in their mouth and went to the convention to start trouble. /sarcasm

Seriously, anyone that sees this ought to be ashamed of the GOP Old Guard. This was the most brutal, but certainly not atypical behavior of those losing their grip on power. We've seen other examples already in other states. It's just shameful.

Utterly off-topic, but if your entire point is to communicate via the written word, then it behooves you to make yourself understood as universally as possible. I might have something very exciting and important to tell you, but if I say "Ron Paul gist pebble toss gator tremble saucy wench!" instead of "Ron Paul appears to have come out of the Lousiana Convention with a net positive!" you might not understand my point. Likewise, I have some issues understanding some of the posts on the forums, and probably always will.

It has been a thorn in my side that, for well over a decade, people have used the internet as an excuse to forget the finer points of communicating to their audience. This doesn't mean every grammar rule and guideline becomes law, but if you are routinely spelling things incorrectly, confusing homonyms with one another, and structuring your sentences in ways that ruin their intended meanings... you are going to be misunderstood.

I think most Ron Paul supporters are very articulate and I'm often very impressed when I read the "Comments" sections of RP articles. Why so harsh?

Part of the fun is just that, learning and learning from others. That's why I participate, to learn. The English language is changing as fast as the Republican party with Ron Paul. Structuring, homonyms, people write with their best intentions but not to make a grade. Understanding is as much fun and delivering. I said it, pues.
