[Toughy]

I'm watching Channel 2 news right now......

Of the film they have shown of the 'riot' (which was apparently, the looting of a Foot Locker, a bunch knocked over newpaper racks and papers all over the streets and a whole bunch of folks playing 'catch me if you can' with police) all of the folks shown arrested with the exception of one black man, are white anarchists, probably from SF and Berkeley.

The thing that truly pisses me off about all the media is the inability to see where the violence that happens in organized peaceful civil disobediance/demonstrations/rallies comes from. It is always started by anarchists in my experience and the overwhelming majority of them are white.

It's 10:30 and for right now it's over.....they are re-opening some streets downtown.............however there are still a bunch of folks still on the street. And I am off to bed.


Oh yeah............the jury had no black folk on it, but was majority white, with asian and latino folk filling it out.
