Ticketing of London Critical Mass, England.

Reports are coming in of police ticketing and searching riders during last night's ride and this seems to indicate a stepping up of police harassment, maybe in advance of the House of Lords appeal hearing in October, or in imitation of heavy-handed New York and Minneapolis police perhaps?

Friday Critical Mass

Critical Mass tonight begins at 5:30 at Loring Park in downtown Minneapolis. Reports have been coming in of dozens to hundreds of police staging for possible mass arrests.

Communities United Against Police Brutality has put out an emergency call for copwatchers.

The RNC Welcoming Committee is encouraging organizers and participants in S1 sectors actions to consider not participating in the critical mass.
