\nSEPT\/15-19;COURT SUPPORT RNC ARRESTEES
\nPosted by: “Lydia Howell” lhowell@visi.com<\/p>\n
Come support the RNC arrestees! The days of direct action are over, but
\nthe legal support work has just begun. Starting this Monday, people are
\ngoing up before the court and the state to face their criminal charges
\nfor expressing their dissent during the RNC. We need a strong showing of
\ncommunity solidarity in the court rooms to support our friends and
\nprovide a deterrent to judge’s behavior. Having lots of people present
\nat the upcoming hearings is an effective way of challenging the
\npolitical oppression of the RNC protesters. Come out and show your
\nsolidarity!<\/p>\n
Food and drink are not allowed in the court room and all supporters will
\nhave to pass through a metal detector (no guns, knives, or scissors are
\nallowed past security). While in court, supporters must remain silent and
\nwill not be allowed to carry signs through the security station; the
\nstrength of our collective presence will send the message we need to
\nsend.<\/p>\n
