I understand that I have a hot LZ waiting for me in the Twin Cities, but I’ll soon be departing for the RNC ‘08 protests anyway. Soviet Onion is reportedly already doing yeoman’s work as A3 field coordinator for the area, while my understanding is that William has already played a heroic part before going underground. First rumors of sweeps and then the raid on the RNC Convergence Space kicked off what is shaping up to be a days-long orgy of police raids, ad hoc response protests, arrest-kidnappings of RNC Welcoming Committee members by unmarked snatch teams on the street, press conferences, counter press conferences and more. Oh, and I hear that a few Ron Paul people are showing up as well.

I’ll try to use my mobile phone to post short updates, when possible, to my Twitter account or possibly this blog, so follow me there if you’d like. You can also use Twitter to keep up with the excellent protest legal support team, Coldsnap Legal Collective, as well as subscribe to general RNC ‘08 protest updates.
