Court started this week for the May 3rd, 2006 critical mass arrests (yes, it has been nearly two years), and it has been the equivalent of hell.

Day one lasted 6 hours and was only the crowns chance to testify.  6hours of listening to

Thanks for going into more detail. I felt too overwhelmed to do so. I'm glad you got off, but I feel like it's a teeny victory; I hope we get more.

I'm glad you got your charges stayed.

What time on the 19th? ken thinks it is at 2:00pm, is he right?

I have been told that it is at 2:00 in court room 302. I'm assuming after the first day they will start earlier though, because starting at 2:00 when court generally doesn't go past 5:00 seems ridiculous.

what is alternative media? Maybe if you are sticking it on a public media site, you should star peoples names, like sgt. Dennison's.
But yah, go ahead and repost it, if you so please.

p.s. want to hang out?
