Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

marco:

This is the raw footage of the St. Paul police repeatedly tear-gassing a peaceful protest at the Republican National Convention, having given no announcements, orders, or warnings.

I have to keep reminding myself that this happened yesterday in the United States of America.

Mainstream media has not covered the RNC protests or the extreme police response.

(via Lindsay Campbell)

Woo hoo! Let’s bring on the Police State! Doublethink! Though Police! NewSpeak! I’ve got my copies of 1984. Or the new title, “Today’s America” in hand and ready to welcome out newfound “Security” with a total erosion of freedoms.

I think we’re protecting ourselves right out of the things we’ve protecting ourselves from.
