A trio of journalists who have a track record
of documenting police abuse at political
conventions were stopped and searched during
the early morning hours in Minneapolis.
Police took their video equipment, cell
phones, hard drive and notes about protests
planned for next week's Republican National
Convention.
No charges have been filed against the three,
according to Mineapolis police spokesman Sgt.

30, 2008. Saint Paul, MN Police Department
raids a home at 591 Iglehart Avenue at
gunpoint. The journalists include a
contributing photojournalist with "Democracy
Now", whose host Amy Goodman appears in this
clip jumping a fence to question police
officers.
This is part of a series of police actions on
the eve of the Republican National Convention
in St. Paul.
After several hours, all those detained were
released. No arrests. No property was seized
as result of the search warrant. The clip
ends with an interview with homeowner Mike
Whalen. At the start of the clip, a neighbor
shouts to the media and onlookers that we
could all come into her backyard to see the
detained people held in the adjacent
backyard.

For an example of good cop behavior check out
this video from the 4th annaul Iraq War
Protest in LA. You will see a squad of bike
and foot cops ORDERED to march into the
center of a permitted anti war demonstration
during a punk concert. They create a line
seperating the crowd. Tensions mount (no
shit). Finally a cop with some authority on
the ground say's "Why are we doing this?"
Since none of the ranking officers on the
ground have any idea why they were ordered
into the crowd... they leave. That's a good
cop. The one that says "why are we doing
this" when ordered to do fucked up shit.
watch it.
