OMG * is going on over in North America?! ???
I'm am so frightened for the friends I have met on the internet from the mighty US of A and Canada.
The internet has been such a wonderful invention. It is bringing everyday ppl of the world so much closer together, so we may learn about one another, and that we are essentially all of the same flesh and blood, hopes and dreams, worries and fears. And that ultimately, we all just want peace and to be left alone by our govts in our living rooms, at the very least. But since the govts and their lacky authority slaves dont seem to understand that simple concept, then of course we are going to go out on the streets and protest for the values we truely believe in - for what should be countries of liberty and free expression.
Together we are learning that it is actually the corrupt govt and criminal corporate elite of this world who are trying to manipulate us into hate and fighting each other, when in reality it is their oppression, propaganda, half-truths and outright lies which we must protest against before it is too late. Before we wake up one day to find this sort of thing becomes acceptable in our societies and prevalent in the everyday lives of average people.
Things are getting really scarey over there, and it's seemingly only getting worse.
Police State: 2011Excellent video compilation of various protest and general arrest/abuse incidents - some you will recognise from recent months, and others from the past couple of years. (Clips from 2009 are the earliest date represented in this video).
Though this video contains footage of both innocents and criminals being subject to police action, remember that police are granted their authority and powers under a
social contract and are bound to carry out their duties within the frame work of law. What we see here is completely unacceptable, and a breach of that social contract.
What happens when there is nobody to police the police?
I was handing out fliers the other night at Summerfest, and I was saying "Support Freedom?" to get people to grab my material. One girl replied with "I live in America...you can't get any more free than that."
Well sweetheart...I wish you could see this.

Lastly, yes, the Toronto G20 summit was hijacked by violent Black Bloc Anarchists. Regardless, the footage here is of PEACEFUL PROTESTERS being surrounded and attacked for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
And yes, the guy in the Miami shooting WAS driving recklessly. But tell me...do you really think it's necessary to fire over 100 rounds into a vehicle and hospitalize four bystanders in the process over one driver? Do you?
