video of 2/16/03 breakaway march in sf. This seemed a test run. For first workday action if war. First confrontation. 2:40

Test Run? What else? It's been public for weeks that on 7 am on the first weekday after/if new starts in Iraq the financial distirct will be shut down. Even the mainstream media has announced it. Today, the mainstream media was in the midst of it, getting shoved around with the rest of us. One thing is clear to me, and I have video, is the that the horses they ride spooked real easy today. They are loose cannons no one needs when it comes to nonviolent cd. I'll have video on that later. this first file is for 56k. The comment file is broadband, 225k. Best viewed full screen.

what can i say. I was in the midst of it. Seeking the action even, till after six.

we gotta keep those horses out of there. Besides being dangerous, they poop all over the place, and get away with it.

Other things that are illegal for you and not for cops:

violating traffic laws
assult and battery
assult with a deadly weapon
well...come to think of it, pretty much most laws.

I don't particularly feel safe about the fact that people who are armed and usually on an insane power trip are allowed to break the laws that are supposedly in place for our safety without consequence.

One law for them, and another law for us (a good 4-Skins song). Fucked up. NOT justice.

It's better than dog poop because horses are vegetarian ruminants. A young man threw the horse poop into the mounted officer casing him to start chasing people on the sidewalk with a stick.
by just wondering
that if the young man had thrown dog poop instead, the cop wouldn't have reacted like that?

Which is better to throw at a cop, horse poop or dog poop?
