I talked with my City Council person, Gary Schiff, who said something that caught me off guard. In an 11 to 2 vote (eleven against Gary Schiff and Cam Gordon) our city council gave Homeland Security control over our police.

So this explains everything.
Gary requests that we each call every city council person and support Gary and Cam in having hearings on these cases in which civil liberties were disregarded. Gary said he has heard many stories of civilians being physically restrained and sometimes wounded by Mpls. Police, and he is very concerned. HE CANNOT GET A HEARING ON THESE CASES IF THE MPLS CITY COUNCIL DOES NOT APPROVE. REMEMBER, THEY VOTED AGAINST GARY AND CAM. THEY WILL NEED OUR HELP IN UNDERSTANDING THE IMPORTANCE OF HOLDING HEARINGS.

Call 311 for phone numbers for reaching Mpls. City Council Commissioners.

Thanks so much.

2. Their hand was visible through out. This explains it.

These "fusion" activities have to be stopped immediately.

3. The JTTF strikes again.

Notice how they mark peace groups for investigation and infiltration. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it came out that the majority of property damage was caused by agents provocateur. The tactics of herding people into a dead end, gassing and then arresting them is despicable. This is Homeland Security at its finest.

4. So will Homeland Security control the police for the

November Elections? Think on this possibility. WTF is going on America?
