Worth reading, from Salon's "Lost Liberties" series: This is not America. 10,000 demonstrators are met with 2,500 riot police in Miami, and get beat down pretty much just to shut them up. You know, shooting people in the back, applying force to elderly, questioning people about their political affiliations.
If you didn't hear about Miami having problems like Seattle, Genoa, etc., it's probably because they didn't. That didn't stop them from arresting a few hundred people... The City government calls it successful "security" measures. So apparently pre-emptive attack isn't just foreign policy.
