Outrage in Ohio: Angry residents storm State House
http://michiganimc.org/feature/display/7644/index.php

November 3 - Toledo, Ohio Hundreds of angry Ohio residents marched through the streets of Columbus—Ohio’s Capital—this evening and stormed the Ohio State House, defying orders and arrest threats from Ohio State Troopers. "O-H-I-O ! suppressed democracy has got to go,"they chanted. After troopers pushed and scuffled with people, nearly a hundred people took over the steps and entrance to the State’s giant white column capital building and refused repeated orders to disperse or face arrest. People prepared for arrests, ready to face jail—writing lawyers phone numbers on their arms, signing jail support lists and discussing non-cooperation and active resistance (linking arms, but not fighting back).

Do we see any news on this on CNN, ABC, MSNBC, and other corporate whore networks???

4. It should be a crime for the media not to report this
It's one of the most important stories in American history.

Edited on Sat Nov-06-04 07:33 PM by dweller
but then they were too busy covering (at least here on local) the 100 or so hooded group that descended on the NC Rep hdqtrs in Raleigh overnite to burn an effigy of Bush/Kerry (2-headed), spray paint windows, etc.

10. Media only reports events and celebrities
not issues. If a celebrity or public figure says something they may report it, but if an ordinary person tries to bring something to their attention they'll just ignore them. They only report ordinary people if there's hundreds/thousands of them doing something or they do something really stupid (and usually it helps if you do that stupid thing in front of a celebrity).

12. Heroes! Thomas Jefferson said "overthrowing your government every
so often is a positive thing" (paraphrasing liberally). I've been ready for 4 years.
