In Dave's Qik video, you can hear the cops tell the protestors they're blocking the sidewalk and have to move. So the cops line up four abreast, completely blocking the sidewalk, and herd the group to the end of the block and won't let anyone past.

Well, I"m sure when you point out this obvious contradiction, they'll recognize their error, apologize, and make good on all the harm they've done.

Union Leader coverage:

I thought I overheard someone say that WMUR's cameras were there, but there's nothing on their front page about it. Not surprising; they tend to be big badge-lickers.

Flooding Strange Brew Tavern with a bunch of people ordering nothing more than soda or water might be a good protest.

Sickening! I counted at least 10 gooncops there. What a waste.

A most excellent plan by Mr Ridley to stay far away and film these POS.

I do not understand the stealing of the cameras and the legalities.
Any chance of posting all the names of the piggies who participated in their nazi games?

Yeah. If anything, they should have stole their chalk.

I wonder why they grabbed that girl at the beginning.

Another 1.2 gig's on someone's camera reportedly survived but isn't yet uploaded

there was a young lady in in white taping... would be good to know where her tape is or better yet just for it to be uploaded.

Something i'm unclear on:  Did authorities arrest people who were simply entering the building to follow the "camera return process?" If your answer is yes, how first-hand is your information, did you witness this yourself, and how many sources do you have on this...?

Mike here. My phone was stolen, and while inquiring about getting it returned to me, I was arrested on the charge of Disorderly Conduct.

I was the first one to have my phone seized, while inside the PD filming the arrest of Ademo. I was the 3rd person to be arrested, after Ademo and Wes, but before Neal.

I'm willing to provide more details if requested.

is that alleged "authorities" or self-declared "authorities"?

Mike what did they accuse you of in terms of the disorderly charge...

My hair often gets disorderly. These Oinksters should be ashamed of themselves.

I'm not a fan of the chalk as a tactic -- I think it reduces the clarity and appeal of the message.

But of course the behavior of the police, especially regarding the cameras, was entirely inappropriate.

sometimes the chalked message gets to say exactly what you wanted
