DNC Protesters find “Secret Jail”

DENVER – Activist groups say the converted warehouse poses a threat to civil liberties. The city maintains the facility is needed in case of mass arrests during the Democratic National Convention.

“The public was never going to view this place, it was just found out,” Spagnuolo said. “They got caught with this place. They told our lawyers in negotiations that this place didn’t even exist.”

The makeshift holding center, dubbed “Gitmo on the Platte” by activists, is located on city-owned property near Steele Street and 38th Avenue. Newly-installed security cameras guard the exterior, chain-link fences and barbed wire form cells inside.

“We feel the city should be ashamed of this secret prison they’ve set up,” said Re-create ‘68 organizer Glenn Spagnuolo.

Spagnuolo and other activists gathered outside the formerly-secret facility on Friday to protest the city’s plan to use it as a processing center for all those arrested outside the DNC.

Now this is hilarious. The DNC is worried about protesters and are making a “Gitmo” for the people they are trying to save? I mean the message is change right? The Dalibama is crying for change, and demanding we close the Gitmo that houses those trying to kill us, yet those that disagree with the “DaliObama” will be imprisoned in a “Secret” jail in Denver?

The hypocrisy is mind blowing. Well it should be expected, they are of course POLITICIANS.
