Police Preemptively Raid Apartment & Arrest Activists Ahead of NATO Summit

…Police broke down a door to access a 6-unit apartment building near 32nd & Morgan Streets without a search warrant. Police entered an apartment with guns drawn and tackled one of the tenants to the floor in his kitchen. Two tenants were handcuffed for more than 2 hours in their living room while police searched their apartment and a neighboring unit, repeatedly calling one of the tenants a “Commie faggot.”

(if anything this seems like an elitist way of thinking, since it shruggingly accepts that not everyone is gonna be a scholar. but scholars can't revolt by themselves.)

I think this is correct.

Btw wanna be clear that this is "interesting" just in the sense that it reveals how focuses in certain areas tend to perpetuate themselves.

a car full of livestreamers got pulled over and ordered out of vehicle, guns drawn

tim p is crying in panic on his livestream, he's convinced if they go back to their crash pad to get their things they'll be arrested

"we learned a little while ago that our apartment was raided while we were doing coverage of actions, and on our way back there we were surrounded by police cars, cpd emerged guns drawn and ordered us out of the vehicle"

tim trying to figure out if its safe to go home or if they'll all be arrested with, say, empty bottles in the house as evidence.

Chicago police had begun investigating the men as early as May 1, using information purportedly supplied by two informants whom the suspects believed were fellow Occupy backers named Moe and Nadia.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Sunday, 20 May 2012 05:23 (11 months ago) Permalink

pre-RNC '08 there was a raid, similar charges, eventually downgraded to something like "conspiracy to incite a riot" iirc, but not before VIOLENT ANARCHISTS had been the headline for the duration of the RNC

The Galway one got closed down at 4.30am at the beginning of the week, think that might have been about the last one still standing. Though I think 2 others were shut at pretty much the same time.

Hoos: you could also try to contact Léo Bureau-Blouin or Martine Desjardins, representatives of the other 2 students federation. they are making common front. Talking to Amir Khadir could be of interest , too:
" MNA Amir Khadir of the left-wing Québec Solidaire as he suggested a campaign of civil disobedience may be necessary.
“This is a bludgeon law imposed by an illegitimate, corrupt government,” Mr. Khadir said. “I call upon all citizens to respect the laws. But we have to ask ourselves the question: Must we obey a law that takes away fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution? Can we be justified to disobey?”"

also, check this cool gesture from lolarcade fire

they were wearing the red square on SNL, symbol of the strike

other photos

march yesterday that led to scott olsen & a dozen other vets throwing back their medals

another angle

black bloc stands guard outside a church housing protesters for the night

"moe," now widely believed to be the undercover informant in the nato3 (5, now that two more have been arrested) case

also this

for fuller context on the above: see the black officer without a helmet in the background? a few seconds earlier someone had hit him in the head with a stick. a second stick gets raised in the crowd, and officer rageface decides to go ham, no pun intended.

so all of this is now completely under-the-rader more or less, no...? I don't see any mention of recent OWS activities anywhere in mainstream media outlets, not even negatively.

It's been all over Chicago news, though mostly w/ praise for the 'restraint' the cops showed in face of protesters.

Lots of talk on the news about CPD "facilitating" marches.
