Thousands of activists seek permits to march in Philly during DNC

NBC10: On the day that thousands of Democratic delegates from every state and territory of America get off planes and check into their hotels in Philadelphia this summer, thousands more will already be rallying in Center City as part of an anti-fracking and clean energy coalition.

The first protest permit has been granted; others are pending, including several in support of Bernie Sanders.

The first sights and sounds of the Democratic National Convention will come from 5,000 activists marching on Market Street from City Hall to Independence Mall the afternoon of July 24, a day before the convention kicks off.

That’s how many people a group called Food & Water Watch has told the city to expect for their “March for Clean Energy Revolution.”

  1. Remember, Philadelphia is one of Hell’s Branch Offices – Open 24/7 for your convenience. You doubt me? The Democratic National Convention will make you a believer, trust me. 👿

  2. The Hajj for nitwits!!!! Ha!

    The format is nice, good job Mr. BFH. Typing is crisp and fast and all of the nasty jump-placed ads are gone. I too will wait in anticipation for the opportunity to “like” my fellow travelers.

  3. I notice that 8 headlines are interspersed throughout that article about the Dem convention. 4 of those headlines are about the DNC, and 1 headline is about Hillary. The other 3 are about Trump. They are trying to hide Hillary.

  4. Please can we get three things back?

    1. Reply. Even if sometimes it’s two people going back and forth like four-year-olds, I think being able to communicate with each other is essential to maintaining our smart-ass, superior attitude over lib losers. It’s called SOCIAL media for a reason. Nomasayin’?

    2. Thumbs up. This is critical to my mental health. I am being asked to do impossible things, things that don’t even make sense, all day long at work. I get zero approbation for my efforts. When I come home to see that a number of people here agree with my rants, it definitely lifts my spirits.

    3. Can we also have comments with more than 10 TUs marked with the old yellow border?
