True Account of Monday 23 Battle
. . . after the march turned south on 10th it wound up on the west lawn of Capitol Park where it had begun, the marchers began sitting in the shade under the trees. it was pretty hot. The crowd seethed with resentment at the overwhelming police state show of force along the parade route. It was clear to me that nothing was over. suddenly i saw a few black bloc anarchists bolt from the capital steps and sprint south towards N Street. this sudden action instantly stampeded the resentful crowd, and in seconds 100's of demonstrators were sprinting across the lawn for the N street side of the park. i dropped my bike and ran for it.

The Truth About Monday's post march Battle in Capitol Park
we freed the arm-locked black bloc from the cops and ran the police out of the park--- the Suck Bee lies!!!! after the march turned south on 10th it wound up on the west lawn of Capitol Park where it had begun, and the marchers began sitting in the shade under the trees. The crowd seethed with resentment at the overwhelming police state show of force along the parade route. It was pretty clear to me that nothing was over. One 30ish woman sitting near me began shouting: "Wasn't that fun? Excersiing our right to free assembly and petition our government for a redress of grievances through a gauntlet of riot police-- and the tank! the tank was nice!" Her voice broke and she seemed near tears, and the crowd near me, at least, voiced support and agreement. Face it, we'd been humiliated and totally defeated; our message of anti-biotech and anti-genetic engineering had been suppressed; drown out by the intimidating police state show of force. suddenly i saw a few black bloc anarchists bolt from the capital steps and sprint south towards N Street. this sudden action instantly stampeded the resentful crowd, and in seconds 100's of demonstrators were sprinting across the lawn for the N street side of the park. i dropped my bike and ran for it . . .

 Fewer people were protesting in Sacramento on June 24 than on the previous three days, and the police were more demanding, but energy was still high, and solidarity was stronger. The first action of the day was a creative, if somewhat quixotic, convergence on the Convention Center, where WTO delegates were meeting. Protesters danced, sang, decorated the sidewalks, and briefly took the streets. Police struck brutally, splitting the crowd and squeezing it between horses and motorcycles. Eventually, people moved on to the jail to show solidarity for an imprisoned comrade. At least two were arrested en route. Food Not Bombs served at this lively rally, where the protester-to-police ration was 1-to-1+. Afterwards, the crowd was escorted back to the Welcome Center along a police-chosen route from which no one was allowed to stray. Elsewhere, black bloc kids were harrassed but still had fun. Police also seized plastic noisemakers and indymedia flyers from a ten-year old boy (with an IMC press pass) and refused to give them back.

I was one of many people arrested yesterday. My offense? Covering my face in public, an act made illegal in Sacramento a week ago. I'm not entirely sure as to why I was singled out, as I was walking on the sidewalk and walking in the direction the cops had ordered. Also I was wearing my IMC Press pass and a medic bag. This was in front of the IMAX just as the call went over police intercoms that the delegates were soon to arrive. The police ran up and grabbed me from behind, wrenching my arms behind my back using pain compliance which was completely unnecessary as I was too surprised to resist. An inexperienced officer was assigned to apply the zipties while another officer explained how to do it. I felt a sharp pain in my wrist as the officer exclaimed,"Whoa! That's too tight! Well, we'll fix it later." My hands swelled up and turned purple and started to go numb as they went through the paper work and attempts to take my picture. I kept my head down and my eyes closed to prevent them from getting a useful picture. I was searched by a male officer with female officers standing nearby. I clearly stated that I did not consent to a search to which the pig replied,"Welcome to the state of California!". Myself along with the other arrestees were loaded onto the bus. The pain from the cuffs was unbarable. The others on the bus could see my discomfort and chanted until the cops finally "remembered" to change my cuffs. This would prove to be the least painful of my jail experience. least painful of my jail experience.

After the violent and unprovoked attacks on passive protesters outside the IMAX -- intended simply to clear us from the delegates' view -- about 60 of us regrouped on 11th and J and held a circle to decide what to do.

The `Left-Wing' Media? Review of the Monthy
"To the extent that their background and values determine the news, it is naive to expect that journalists with their establishment-centered professional training to be sympathetic with anything more than a kind of elite centrism, far away from progressive left-wing politics and regulations.. The conservative critique of the liberal news media is an intellectual failure, riddled with contradictions and inaccuracy." Owners and advertisers determine the news, not journalists.

History of Money and Private Central Bank Ownership by Freemason/Zionists Mafia
Henry Ford (founder of the Ford Motor Company in 1903) stated: "It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." (see The Foundation Economy by Fred Eggerton).
In this expose, we are presenting numerous quotes from past US Presidents and polictians and demonstrate how control and profits of the private Central Banks has been the catalyst behind many wars. Note that all four presidents who tried to end the banking monopolies were assassinated (Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Kennedy) and anyone who tries to expose these Banking Dynasties is demonized like Rep. Congressman James Traficant in 1993 and many others.
