So many police everywhere you turn in Chicago near the #NatoProtest in America this weekend & evident in every livecast. The menacing, huge police presence with paddy wagons, helicopters serve to harass, suppress & limit the rights of every American present. Emanuel’s militia response is also tremendously expensive & the funds must come from somewhere. Most importantly, the numbers show Americans want drastic cuts in the Dept of Defense budget now, an end to military action against civilians domestically & out of Afghanistan now.

Three: The OCCUPATION IS NOT LEAVING!
How the U.S. government is orchestrating this military response to American protest:
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel invited NATO to Chicago & says “it will be historic”

insisting the NATO Summit will not cost taxpayers a dime

“that’s why we raised private money and I secured federal money – so that’s number one,” Emanuel said. “And yes, I do feel like we’re going to be able to meet our budget.”
