Pre-Protest Inspection






My day's end

I'm heading home now folks. I'm tired, sore, worn out, my batteries are dead, my memory cards are full, and I couldn't be happier. I have alot of video and pictures, which I'll be posting as I can. I couldn't do a live upload because I couldn't get online. Too many users it would seem. I'll have a nearly full upload by the end of the night.

Leaving to report

Well folks, I'm about to be on my way to McCormick place. I'll be uploading my pictures here as I can, and videos on my YouTube Channel. If you'd rather view the photos on Flickr, here's my Flickr Stream.

I just hope we can have a peaceful protest.

Where are all my posts?

Sorry folks, I either dropped the ball myself, or something dropped it for me. For the past month and a half I've been writing my posts and having them post themselves. Auto-posting can be great. Something happened, so they didn't post. I should have kept a closer eye on it. Sorry folks.

Anyway, I don't need to bore you with all the posts I missed. They are more then likely, the same things you've been seeing almost everywhere else. Again, I'm sorry, I'm just glad I checked it before the summits. Without further adieu, I'm back.

Quick rundown or recent news:

-8 arrests at Obama's Chicago HQ
-March through Canaryville and Bridgeport that included the assault of an 80 year old man and police threatening the arrest of citizens watching in the Canaryville area
-Police raid which included mistaking brewing equipment for Molotovs
-Buses of protesters arriving
-Another march on the north side
-March of nurses and anti-NATO downtown, group broke off leading in a couple of arrests

That's just a brief overview of the most recent news bits.
