This is sad to see. It's one thing to support your candidate, but there's no need to emulate OWS and act like assholes about this. This is a big part of the reason the pop media did not, will not, and won't take Paul seriously. His supporters are acting like jackbooted thugs...
It's also sad to see them, by any means necessary, subjugating the popular vote and using the state convention process simply to throw a monkey wrench into the works. Nobody was going to deny Paul a chance to speak at the convention, yet these animals who unthinkingly support Paul just can't leave it be. He didn't win any primaries for a good reason: There just aren't many people who support him....hate to say it, but some of these are the same tactics that Hitler used to take over Germany.
-Throwing punches because their candidate didn't win

-Booed Josh Romney off the stage and called his dad "White Obama" (There's that false narrative again. Just because Romney isn't an extremist and naive utopian, he's "Just the same").

-Crying because he finished a distant third (Romney won 62% of the popular vote in the caucus), Paul crybabies "Will do scorched Earth if we have to"

Even Paul himself is against their actions (same link): "In Idaho, isolated instances of grassroots activists working toward an ostensible "hostile takeover" of the GOP are not sanctioned by the Ron Paul national campaign."
Essentially, Paul, who has VERY FEW legitimate supporters, are trying to use strong-arm brown-shirt tactics and procedural tricks to circumvent the overwhelming majority of Republican voters who DO NOT FAVOR HIM to try and take over state conventions. This is a shameful way to attempt to keep a largely irrelevant candidate in the spotlight. The best the legitimate GOP party rank-and-file can do at this point is attempt to galvanize and by mobilizing, quash this insolent and petulant little attention whoring rebellion by a few people choking on sour grapes. This is NOT what the GOP needs right now.
A note: I'm not angry at Paul himself YET, but I am disgusted by his supporters....this seems to be rogue activity by his rabid weirdo fanbase. But he's going to need to tell his attack dogs to heel soon, or there will be repercussions. Dr Paul himself is old and done, but his son has a bright future (in spite of his recent over-the-top comments about Obama "being the gayest President [or something similar]). There is an important message here that is precariously close to being lost completely because of the moronic activities of a few uber radical whack jobs.
