Amy Goodman Arrested At The RNC
All I can say is WOW???!!! Everyday I see around me increased police state presence and fear of everyday people using their voices to stand up for something…anything….
While I don’t follow Amy’s work regularly, I do respect her work very much. I thought to myself, wow….did the media cover up DNC arrests or is this my imagination. I did see folks protesting the war during the DNC covered by the media, but the arrests based on conspiracy…e.g. arrests BEFORE anything actually took place?!! Come on. Sounds fishy to me at best and so not like the typical police I know. We can’t prevent crime, but we sure can prevent you from voicing dissent.
Crimes such as domestic violence, rape, sexual assault come to mind when I think of the lack of police protection available to protect us. Try to stir up some dissent at a public city council meeting here in New Orleans, or bring a few ants to the RNC and you’re in big trouble and headed for pepper spray.
Here is a clip I came across from Brain Wash The Movie featuring Amy. I have not personally seen it, but will do some research.
What do you think?
