On July 12, 2012 LAPD used excessive force on the citizens of Los Angeles creating an unsafe environment and violating the civil rights of the citizens they are sworn to protect resulting in a tactical alert being issued for the downtown area. LAPD has for weeks been arresting individuals for using chalk on public sidewalks in violation of settle law. MACKINNEY v. NIELSEN No. 94-15438

On July 12, 2012 LAPD made at least seven more such arrests before deploying at least an additional 140 officers in riot gear in the downtown area further escalating tensions with the citizens enjoying LA’s monthly Art Walk. Commanders on the ground then ordered officers to fire on citizens with rubber bullets, bean bags, and tear gas without warning and without issuing orders to disperse or declaring an unlawful assembly causing injury to many Angelenos. Eventually arresting 20 in a situation the commanders on the ground they created. More Information: http://www.change.org/petitions/mayor-villaraigosa-governor-jerry-brown-attorney-general-eric-holder-investigate-lapd-use-of-force-on-angelenos-at-art-walk-on-7-12-12

Full riot gear was worn by some officers during the ordeal. Rubber bullets and other projectiles were in use. The police were very aggressive. All this over chalk painting on the sidewalk???

Please Join Us For The Closing Reception of the Occupy Ventura Exhibit at
Bell Arts Factory

TODAY —Saturday, November 26, 2011
3 pm — 9 pm

ART • PHOTOS • INFORMATION • NETWORKING • MUSIC • OPEN MIC

The exhibit has been on display for the month of November. Come see the art and photos, find out more about the Occupy Movement and how you can be involved, hear music, and be part of an Open Mic. Also in solidarity with Small Business Saturday, there will be a Local Artisans/Vendors area*.

The ambition of this exhibit has been to fuel people with energy for the purpose of channeling creative efforts into creating some real, positive, meaningful and lasting change for people worldwide. It is part of the growing artist contingent of the 99% movement. The exhibit includes actual handmade cardboard poster signs used at Occupy Ventura rallies and photos of those actions. Like the movement itself, the exhibit is grassroots in nature and with emphasis on free expression. The experience of true and direct democracy and the quest of finding and giving voice for the concerns of humanity is what motivates and is at the core of this exhibit.
*LOCAL ARTISANS/VENDORS: In support of local artisans and local small businesses, we are offering space on Saturday to sell your art and/or products. Tables are free but we request a donation (donations go to Bell Arts). Please contact Eileen MacEnery to reserve your space by Friday. 805-651-9161.
