The Freaker’s Ball

By Mitch Berg

We share a city with some…”interesting” people. 

Lassie at True North notes that the “9/11 Truthers” are setting up shop over in Minneapolis:

 This Tuesday, September 11, many will reflect and say a prayer in remembrance or honor those who lost their lives in the wake of 9/11/2001. Then, there are those who think 9/11 was an inside job — the 9/11 Truthers. They plan to show their film “9/11 Press for Truth” and act out with some street theater in Minneapolis, with Coleen Rowley, former FBI agent.

Spend an evening celebrating our freedom of expression thru music, dance and spoken word (open mic time, too.)

Learn about the case for impeachment, find out about the campaign for a US Department of Peace, and discover great ways to work for change right here in Minneapolis…

Speakers Include: Coleen Rowley, former FBI agent and Time person of the year 2003, Marv Davidoff founder of the Honeywell Project…

If there ever was a better opportunity (or duty) to crash a party, this is it.

Hm.  Some parties, I’d like to crash.

Others, I’m happy to let stew in the fetid backwash of what Dostoevskii might have called their “brain fever”.

    I got into a political debate this weekend with some Democrats who get 100% of their news from the Daly Show. Some times who just have to walk away from the other side when they are too ingnorant to debate with.

    There’ll be at least a week’s worth of soundbites and video for any bloggers who can make it. I SO wish I could crash it, but have a BPOU meeting.

    These are the words that would make me run away fast (other than the asinine politics): “……expression thru music, dance and spoken word….”

    Good to know, Colleen. That’ll save Angryclown the money he was gonna spend on pepper spray.

    Hey, crashing the protestors’ party. Now there’s an easy way to prove your patriotism. So much easier than actually joining up and serving!
    (Let’s face it – you’ll just end up reading about it or viewing it online – but boy, will you ever blast them after the fact!)
