DESCRIPTION:In solidarity with antiwar protests in San Francisco against the Obama Wars 
 in Afghanistan and Iraq (coming up: Iran and Pakistan!), we'll be 
 continuing to take accounts of police behavior and videoing cops on the 
 beat as they drive poor people away and give out tickets people can't 
 pay.\n\nHomeless vets are a significant proportion of the community without 
 shelter outside.  We demand an end to the obscene and murderous war abroad. 
  This is both a budget and civil liberties issue locally.  Police must be 
 discouraged from being a part of the local War on the Police, and the 
 merchant community that supports these outrages confronted.\n\nThe new 
 anti-homeless Downtown Ordinance public assembly constrictions went into 
 effect last week.  They criminalize more than one hour's sitting on a city 
 bench, make 3 unpaid infractions a jailing misdemeanor, and expand the 
 notorious "No Go" zones downtown for sitting, sparechanging, political 
 tabling, and street performing.\n\nAnti-homeless ticketing for sleeping at 
 night continues with shelter for less than 10% of the homeless community.  
 We'll also be supporting calls for a Tent City when the Armory Winter 
 Shelter closes in mid-April and encouraging organizing in that 
 direction.\n\nWe have video cameras and tape recorders; bring your own as 
 well.\n\nJumbogumbomeister Joe Schultz's tasty soup will NOT be available, 
 but we hope to provide some cocoa.\n\nIf you want to volunteer for Public 
 Records Act request work and other behind-the-scenes Copwatching, call 
 423-4833.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/03/19/18579233.php
