Shout-out to all of you who are courageously out on the streets for real democracy and global emancipation!

A slightly newer version is also available, but is over 2mb and so cannot be posted here.

UPDATE 8/27:

Three video artists/journalists associated with Glass Bead Collective who were subject to an unconstitutional stop and seizure of their video equipment, personal property, notebooks, and phones in the early morning hours of August 26th, 2008, in Minneapolis, had all of their equipment and personal property returned in the morning of August 27th. Police obtained a search warrant on August 26th, presumably viewed all pictures and video pursuant to the warrant,and then released the property. The stated purpose of the warrant was to seek photographic evidence in support of an investigation of "criminal trespass." No charges have been filed or are expected.

New information has become available regarding the events on Wednesday, July 2nd when 8 people locked down to the driveway outside ATK (Alliant Tech Systems), a weapons manufacturer in Anoka, MN.

A source within one of the local law enforcement agencies that responded to the situation reports that at approximately 6 AM on the day of the lockdown, an hour and a half before the action took place, they received a call from the FBI to inform them of the impending action.
