Dem Convention Won't be That Much Fun After All

This is really too bad:
Denver officials expect to spend more than $18 million on police equipment for the Democratic National Convention — but the purchases apparently won't include high-tech weapons that use sonic waves to incapacitate protesters or goo guns to immobilize them.

The dreaded crap cannon won't get a workout after all. And I was going to have a bunch of adult diapers made with the DNC logo on them. I figured I could sell a bunch of them in Denver.

Come to think of it, I bet I still could...

However, while the cops are trying to play nice, the protesters are doing anything but:
A new kind of warning has come up about protesters gearing up for the Democratic National Convention.

Denver firefighters have learned of a house full of urine being stored to throw at police. An internal memo is warning first responders that disgusting acts are a significant concern.

Protesters in other cities have used urine and feces filled balloons to throw at police and there are concerns that could happen during the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

Denver City Councilman Doug Linkhart has proposed an ordinance to keep protesters from carrying the so called urine bombs or other liquids in the protest areas.
I imagine that house probably smells better than the protesters.
