From ABC News:
Orient Road Jail cleared out to handle RNC arrests
A big factor during the RNC is the potential for a large number of arrests.

In anticipation, in an unprecedented move, Hillsborough County jail officials announced one facility is completely cleared and essentially reconstructed just for the Republican National Convention.

The man in charge, Colonel Jim Previtera, took charge as he walked us through the Orient Road Jail.

The colonel began in the carport, where, he said, "The inmates will be unloaded, they will be searched and walked through a metal detector which has been added for this event."

The entire facility has been transformed. At around noon Wednesday, the last of the inmates, excluding a dozen or so trustees prepared to handle cooking and cleaning duties, were moved out to nearby Falkenburg Road Jail.

Anyone arrested during the RNC will be brought to Orient Road Jail.

"As you can see, everything here -- including the chairs -- are color coded to handle this process efficiently and thoroughly," said Previtera.

Officials have essentially created a temporary booking facility.

They are ready to handle a mass amount of inmates. Previtera said the system can handle 1000 additional arrests.
When you have been getting free stuff for so long and you see the free stuff going away, of course you are going to be upset. Time to batten down the hatches and make a big bowl of popcorn -- this is gonna get real interesting real soon. The joke is that the protesters think that they are sticking it to the man when, they in fact are just tools of the man -- Useful Idiots.
