Apparently, except we all know that's not how it works ... <g> I really didn't like this part: >>In 2001, when Michael Hyde was arrested for criminally violating the state's electronic surveillance law - aka recording a police encounter - the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court upheld his conviction 4-2. In dissent, Chief Justice Margaret Marshall stated, "Citizens have a particularly important role to play when the official conduct at issue is that of the police. Their role cannot be performed if citizens must fear criminal reprisals…."<< Eight years later and the ACLU hasn't gotten it overturned? Meanwhile, up here, our fascists are spending a billion on security for the G8/G20 meetings later this month ... there's lots of new sound cannons and shit in that figure, apparently -- London only cost 30M last year or whatever. All for the greater good of GS and their ilk ...
