@Zlatxlat "#OccupyDenver Needs help. Anarchist are threatening to turn it violent." US has no BlackBloc philosophy; any "BB" are COPS.''

1. The name of the game is 'Ghandi Tech'
Meaning that those who come to be violent are either idiots or cops and should not be tolerated by peaceful protesters.

2. I wondered when this would happen (accustions of BB = cops). No, the bloc should stay conspicious...
...until that point at which the police start cracking down en masse, violently.

This is bullshit at it's extreme because I know people there with the bloc and they are in fact not doing bloc tactics, yet.

4. Why should they do anything? Their actions will be exploted by the media
They should really stay out of it.

6. They have been staying out of it, I personally think this is false flag.
Guys preparing to instigate and blame the bloc, as per usual.

The bloc always acts defensively.

3. They better not pull that crap
We won't know if it's agents or idiotic wannabe anarchists but it will destroy the momentum

7. imho if the hooligans were going to do something it would've happened by now.
So the bloc as it stands now is mostly self-constrained and the hooligans are either being suppressed by peer pressure or simply aren't there.

The bloc is present though, no mistake about it. They just aren't wearing the masks right now.

5. That would be a bad thing.
But I don't know how strong black bloc is in NYC. The last time I heard from them was when they torched a paper dragon in front of MSG.
