I realize this will come off as naive to many out there in indy media land but I can't believe everything that's going down in St. Paul. I was appalled by the weekend preRNC raids but today's actions by the state are incredibly obscene and inexcusable. I've been glued to indy media sources all day. I feel anxious and terrified just sitting at home watching and I'm hundreds of miles away from this craziness.
