Looks to me ...You've got this one badly wrong.<br /><br />Looks to me as though you value missunderstandings and lack of communication because they fuel physical confrontation with the police.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1786438112933136892.post-55072633515205986022011-02-10T10:47:16.899+00:002011-02-10T10:47:16.899+00:00Hey Random
We're a bunch of politically activ...Hey Random<br /><br />We're a bunch of politically active computer geeks operating on a shoestring budget with a passion for keeping us, our friends and our friends friends out of kettles. <br /><br />We're not some faceless corporate with spin doctors reading every communication to make sure it can't be misinterpreted.<br /><br />Kettling is a blunt instrument. And it sucks. <br /><br />Our take is that the cops use kettling partly because they can and partly because they're so lousy at communication. We object to both of these excuses.<br /><br />We're saying to the cops: Don't kettle - rather, send your messages out and avoid the escalation. You say you don't want to kettle. If you really mean what you say then prove it. Warn people you're going to kettle and warn them why. (added on edit:) And, cops, don't wring your hands and say we try to warn before we kettle but the protesters don't hear us. That excuse doesn't wash because we're offering you a way of getting your message out.<br /><br />So far there's been no response to yesterdays invitation ......<br /><br />Solidarity?<br /><br />GausieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16133330629371223872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1786438112933136892.post-57175020666261884442011-02-10T10:44:19.601+00:002011-02-10T10:44:19.601+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16133330629371223872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1786438112933136892.post-48213065370421020412011-02-10T09:24:01.448+00:002011-02-10T09:24:01.448+00:00Could Sukey even be an elaborate honey trap set up...Could Sukey even be an elaborate honey trap set up by the cops?
