Police prepare for rowdy protests on convention’s last day:
Protesters on bicycles snaked through the city Thursday as police braced for a surge in street demonstrations for the windup of the Democratic National Convention.
After four, largely problem-free days, police were expecting a “big day” of protests, since demonstrators typically look for the largest possible audience, said Boston Police Commissioner Kathleen O’Toole. Police tactical teams were out in force, she added, as they have been throughout the week.
With protesters largely confined to the Freedom Cage, I doubt much is going to happen.
