it sucks to hear boston is dropping the ball, hopefully they'll find their voice. the LA protests were a little bit more organized.

Tonight there is a group of lawyers training normal citizens to become legal observers for the start of the occupation tomorrow. This is basically another term for a whistleblower against the cops. Snitches. They're going to act as impartial observers, acting in shifts to make sure no one gets the shit beat out of them for no reason etc. Basically they report the cops if anything gets out of hand. If my hands wouldn't be full with cameras I'd probably consider doing it. Seems like an interesting take on the whole ordeal: you can't be anything but neutral.. no protesting during the time you are there.
