Complain to Corporate media

Today's Observer did mention a figure of 250,000 peaceful demonstrators and about 200 violent, but accompanied the piece with large photos of violence and again didn't cover issues or police intimidation. I emailed the editor.
Please everyone take the trouble to complain - show that there are huge numbers of people that would support more accurate reporting. This is a small action that we can all take - every little bit helps.
for Peace

We know what to expect from the corps (didly squat)... but we have to support each other... and btw i'm not hippy attitudist - just think people can and should take action on whatever level is accessable for them.

This article alleges that a "hardcore anarchist" organisation from the UK known as "Globalise Resistance" started a riot on Las Ramblas!
Apparently, the GR activists started chanting "one solution, revolution" and "resist, revolt, fuck capitalism", and then all hell broke loose . . .
In a sense, this is exactly what happened. Except that when the riot cops moved in, Globalise Resistance pegged it! Apparently the Trots have taken a vow of celibacy when it comes to fucking capitalism!
I would say "fuck the pigs", but that would be bestiality.
