Dave Mahoney Takes a Plea Bargain (and Still Has a Posse)
community rnc arrestee support structure, 01.06.2009 - 14:34

Monday morning in Ramsey County District Court, RNC activist Dave Mahoney pled – under pressure and significant duress – to a single count of second degree assault, a felony. Instead of going to trial on the 10 felony counts stemming from a single invented incident, Dave and the office of Ramsey County Attorney Susan Gaertner agreed to a plea bargain. Given the disproportionately ferocious, political prosecution, Dave and his attorney evidently found it in their best interest to agree to a 90-day cap on jail time, reduction of the (single) felony charge to a gross misdemeanor after the sentence is served, and the ability for Dave to return to his native England after the jail term. With credit for good behavior and time served, Dave is looking at 56 days or less in jail, as opposed to the decades possible if he had lost at trial.

marco, 19.05.2009 - 20:21

Carl Kabot is sending word around that Father Larry Rosebaugh (One of the Milwaukee 14) got gunned down yesterday in guatemala.

Associated Press and other corporate media peeps are moving VERY SLOWLY with this story. (I guess what else is new, right?)

Its direct correlation to Iran/Contra does NOT take rocket science to see and understand.

A Year of Actions in Milwaukee: 2008
friends, 24.12.2008 - 01:30

This is a compilation of some actions that happened in the Milwaukee area during 2008. It is in no way a complete list, nor does it give an accurate reading of all the resistances and conflict within the city (inherently permeated by them). The minor and major contradictions of everyday life within a city explode and take form in a multitude of effects, but what has been compiled here are what appear to be conscious efforts over the last year to experiment with conflict and build off of these experiences - to act in concert, in solidarity, for themselves or for fun, etc.

A more thorough analysis and elaboration of the direction things seem to be headed in is in order.
