Buckets of urine, slingshots, anti-bus weapons seized in raid on anti-RNC protesters

TWINCITIES.COM, By Mara H. Gottfried, Elizabeth Mohr and Dave Orrick Article Last Updated: 08/30/2008 02:35:54 PM CDT

Ramsey County sheriff's deputies found weapons, [three buckets of urine], and devices to disable buses - among other items - in searches in the Twin Cities last night and today.

Authorities said the items came from "key members of the RNC Welcoming Committee," a self-described anarchist group.

UPDATE!!!

Police arrest RNC protest leaders
Washington Times, DC

Bruce Nestor, chapter president of the Minnesota National Lawyers Guild, said he was present where the urine buckets were taken and that none were identified in a search warrant inventory as urine.

He said two of the buckets were used to flush toilets and conserve water, while another was taken from an apartment that did not have a bathroom but was unconnected to the Welcoming Committee. He accused Sheriff Fletcher of staging a "political stunt."

Protest group wins reprieve to set up big TV at convention Minneapolis Star Tribune

Protest group True Blue Minnesota will get to set up its 20-by-30-foot television screen at Triangle Park near the Xcel Energy Center during the Republican National Convention -- at least through Tuesday, Ramsey County District Judge Kathleen Gearin said Friday.

True Blue had received a permit from the city of St. Paul but the Capitol Area Architectural and Planning Board refused to issue a variance, citing safety concerns. Lt. Gov. Carol Molnau, a Republican, heads the board and cast the deciding vote. FULL ARTICLE

Conversation with E

Hello Start Loving! :)
How are you? I've thought about and prayed for your provision and safety often since I met you.
Do you remember me? ( in the photo attached of the group at the protest against torture policies, I'm the shorter gal! :) )
* I hope you're doing well. I suppose you are since you're doing exactly what your mind, soul, and heart are guiding you to do.
I , on the other hand, am trying to figure things out still. Maybe not trying hard enough, but I'm doing alot of asking.
There's plenty of words I could ramble in this email, but I'll keep it short this time and most importantly I wanted you to know I haven't forgot your eyes.
And your advice about this time of my life being very difficult ( mid 20's...finding a core identity and purpose in this life) and about serving with the Catholic Social Workers.
Anyhow, I hope you remember me too.
Talk to someday again hopefully.
Peace & Struggles,

E

Dear sister,

I am so extremely glad to hear from you, and that you have not forgotten me!

NO I haven't forgotten you! It was glorious time we spent together, and no, I haven't forgiven you for leaving so soon.

Salvation, by whatever name, and this is what you speak of above, is simply and only becoming possessed by the needs of the least-of-these your global family. This is the path. There is no other. This is Life / Love / Peace / JOY. There is no other. Ever.

My daily salvation is The Lord's Prayer PRAYED THIS WAY and more broadly MY ESSENTIAL LIFE SAVING KIT. If you are ever dying for Life - go to these links.

Oh, my prayers are with you sister.

Your brother,

Start Loving - Wage Love or die.

Until Congress returns...

I take between 5-11 hours at the Peace Park vigil each day, covering for Thomas who has a stay away order due to disorderly conduct.

Working on-line for Impeachment, Free Palestine / Gaza, supporting any Heroic activism (see below and posts at WashingtonPeaceCenter.org ( Start Loving's blog)).

Health has fully returned, along with some edema of the legs.

Studying recently published books on Bush Crimes, Conservative Plots to Destroy the Liberal State, current events.

If I am awake I am serving.

MORE AND MORE I REALIZE THAT
THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT
CAN BE SAVED
ARE THOSE DYING TO BE SAVED.
.
"MANY ARE CALLED
(BY HEALTH, BY HUMANITY),
BUT FEW ARE CHOSEN
(RESPOND TO THE CALL)."
