Got this in an email from the command staff today:
A group called "The October 22 Coalition National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality, Repression, and the Criminalization of a Generation" is planning a protest on the sidewalk outside the Police Department on Wednesday, October 22, 2008 from 1645 - 1800 hrs.
The group has been advised to not obstruct the entrances to the PD, or traffic on the streets. 30-40 protesters are expected to carry signs, pictures, banners and drums. Protesters have been asked by the organization to wear black for the event.
We rarely get any kind of activism around here, I'm curious to see how much attention the protesters get. could be an interesting day, me thinks.
sorry, not much for a topic of debate but i'm sure it'll turn into a cop bashing thread so i went ahead and put it in here.
