I'm starting to wonder if anyone is reading this blog

because i had a bad link to Noel's blog on myspace.

Anyhow, what was I going to say?

Oh, so the October 22nd Coalition in Houston posted to New Orleans Indymedia that they will take people in. They also posted info about their demo they are planning for the National Day of Protest:

"In the wake of Katrina; members involved with the New Orleans chapter of the October 22nd Coalition to Stop Police Brutality who have fled to higher ground in the Houston Metro area are welcomed with open arms....The Halliburton Shareholders Meeting Demonstration. Demonstrating outside the Tomball, TX Community Center where the Ku Klux Klan shows up. The overall malfeasence within the Houston Police Crime Lab and evidence room. Harris County as the death penalty capital in Texas. Rampant police abuse in Galveston, Texas southwest of Broadway and 25th Street. Arrival of the Minutemen. Where will this epidemic end?"

Some of those things are off the topic of police brutality, repression, and the criminalization. They must really have it together to have written their own local call.

The national O22 website is still down, but Houston O22 linked to it in their post. Ha!
