Denver Columbus Day Parade
Here we go again. Denver will once again be the scene for activist to act up and be scene as dissidents. Startig this morning at around 7 am, Aim (American Indian Movement) asks for protestors to assemble and converge on the State Capitol. Trying to block and disrupt a legal and permitted celebration of the man who is credited in discovering the Western hemisphere. (after the Vimkings and the Chinese)
Although Denver has celebrated Columbus Day since 1907, the 100th anniversary of Columbus Day this year. It will be marked by those who want to stiffle celebrations and disrupt family events.
Once again failing to prevent the parade organizers from getting permits to celebrate
this event. AIM, among others plan to pack the streets and block the parade.
The official parade begins at 10 a.m. at 15th Street and Court Place, and ends at 14th Avenue and Broadway.
Protesters involved with the AIM-Colorado will begin assembling at 7 a.m. for the All Nations/Four Directions March. They hope to converge at the state Capitol at 8 a.m., walking from the Mercury Cafe, Governor's Park, West Fifth Avenue and Bannock Street, and the Auraria campus.
Personally I would advoid going downtown to the event. Not insupport of the protestors but to advoid being hasseled by them and thier misguided political views. Good luck to those who go in finding parking and a safe place to enjoy the event.
