Rally at City Hall Friday, 9 AM vs. Police Brutality Resolution
Submitted by haloka on Tue, 07/22/2008 - 08:19.
The Minneapolis City Council recently passed a resolution that strips away our protections from police abuse and brutality when we're exercising our rights to free speech and public assembly. Did you know their resolution allows the police to:
* Use rubber bullets when they feel it's necessary
* Confiscate or destroy cameras if they can be used for evidence
* Conceal their identities
* Infiltrate activist groups and target activists
* Withhold medical assistance after they attack people

IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT?
If you say, "No!," then join us! They passed this resolution without giving us a public hearing, but we're having one anyway!
Rally at the City Hall and tell the City Council they can't take away our rights without a fight!
FRIDAY, JUNE 25TH
9 A.M.
CITY HALL
350 SOUTH 5TH STREET
Brought to you by a broad coalition of Twin Cities-based activists. For more information on this issue, contact mgresist at minn.net or recycleme2 at gmail.com.
