Protestors Storm, Ransack Bush-Cheney Headquarters In Orlando

Local 6 News reported that several people from the group of 100 Orlando protestors face possible assault charges after the group forced their way inside the Republican headquarters office."

"Local 6 News learned that most of the protestors were from the AFL-CIO and were taking part in one of 20 other coordinated protests around the country."

"PRO-KERRY FORCES INVADE GOP VICTORY CENTER
Oct 5th, 2004

(MILWAUKEE) – More than 50 demonstrators supporting Democrat presidential candidate John Kerry stormed a Republican campaign office in West Allis at mid-day today, trespassing, creating a disturbance through the use of a bullhorn in the office and then refusing to leave when asked."

It seems like there should be more reports if the actually was a "one of 20 other coordinated protests around the country". If these protests are all union related that would indicate "something" if they are from different types of groups [other than union] that would indicate "something else". Either way it's pretty sad.
