100,000 people isn't that many. Check the statistics of most major rallies in DC.

since my annual 8-28 of waking up late, feeling terrible and still being inspired by the ideas mlk presented being proudly displayed on whatever homepage i had, has been ruined by some klan wives rally in wa dc. i just want to say, glenn beck is that guy that used car dealers get together when the buses have been remodeled for comfort and affordability, to pay him 50 bucks and then have him jump in front of the first bus he sees. just to prove how dangerous a ride it can be. when there are fucking insane people out there.

Des Moines Police Fear Fair Fights Are Race Related

By James Swierzbin, ABC 5 News Reporter

Two Des Moines Police officers were injured and five people were arrested, after yet another fight near the State Fairgrounds, on Sunday. And now police are looking to see if race, may have played a part in all of it.

This was the third time large groups of young black people were seen assaulting individuals in and around the fair. The first incident happened at the end of the Fair's Eastsider Night, and the second was on Friday.

Police say that on Friday a white man was viciously assaulted by a group of black males and females. An attack that police think may have been race related.

Sgt. Lori Lavorato said today that, "...the police report, it states that a group of black males and females, were out at the fair yelling that (quote) 'It's beat whitey night.'"

Sunday's assaults weren't quite as serious, but involved forty-person deep crowds, tangling with both each other, and police officers trying to break things up.

Several Des Moines Police officers tried to break up the fights after they started at around 10pm. According to one of the police reports, a large portion of the fighting involved "...a large fight with black male and female juveniles assaulting white citizens." 

During that effort, two white officers were hit in the head from behind, while trying to make arrests. One officer had to use a stun gun to get control of the situation, and eventually chemical sprays were also used on the crowd, to get things under control.

Given the racial make-up of the crowd last night, Des Moines police believe that these latest attacks may also be racially motivated.

"We have reports that these juveniles were attempting to assault white citizens," said Sgt. Lavorato, "you know it's all under investigation at this point, whether or not this has racial overtones or not, we are looking into that."
