part of the reason i'm so excited about chicago (which, if i can get a ride by tomorrow, i may still be doing?) is that it's finally creating an opportunity to more explicitly make the connections between low intensity class warfare of attrition at home and the war machine abroad

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.

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.

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?”"
