Flag of White AmeriKKKa burns in Chinatown during Ferguson protests

Right-wingers are screaming online about the fact that in many places Ferguson protesters are burning the flag that flies over police stations, the flag of US imperialism. One of the flag burnings was in Chinatown, no doubt the wealthy merchants that have taken over Chinatown were glad only US flags were set on fire.

Workers at H st Wal-Mart stage sit-in strike

On the 26th of November, associates at the 1st and H st Wal-Mart went on strike, staging a sit-in in the aisles of the store with picket signs. The demand is simple: that management stop retaliating against workers who demand pay raises or better conditions.

DC Ferguson marchers take over streets, storm Wal-Mart

On the 25th of November, thousands took to the streets for the second night of DC Ferguson protests responding the the grand jury's refusal to indict killer cop Darren Wilson. The protest took over the streets and blocked the intersection of NY Ave and 395 before marching south-and storming the Wal-Mart on H st. The only looting was the usual looting by Wal-Mart's bosses, stealing from their associates with their law wages and terrible working conditions. Protesters made it plain they were after management, not the associates actually working late to put food on their family tables.

Wal-Mart is known to have donated $10,000 to killer cop Darren Wilson's legal defense fund, so on Nov 25 DC Ferguson marchers "indicted" Wal-Mart for obstructing justice by storming the H st store!

WARNING: malicious wifi hotspot found near McPherson Square

On the 25th of November, with Ferguson protesters roaming the city, a wifi hotspot calling itself "Google Starbucks" appeared in the McPherson Square area. Upon connection I discovered it was replacing https certificates for this website and several others with invalid ones. Another connecton did not generate this warning, proving "Google Starbucks" to be intercepting web traffic.

Die-in at DC Police headquarters protests Ferguson, killer cops

On the 25th of November, people outraged by the refusal of the Ferguson grand jury to indict killer cop Darren Wilson staged a die-in at DC police headquarters. The die-in lasted 4 1/2 minutes, one minute for each hour Michael Brown's body was left in the street by the St Louis police department. DC cops too routinely shoot and kill African-American youth, they too need to listen to the fury of the streets on this issue.

Pro-KLX Sen Mary Landreau gets home demo on Capitol Hill

Early morning on November 17, pro-Keystone XL Democratic Senator Mary Landreau found protesters on her lawn, showing once again that the Keystone XL is the Huntingdon Life Sciences of oil. More than 50 protesters and a replica of the pipeline were there, early on a very rainy Monday morning. Meanwhile the Rosebud Sioux have declared that any attempt to cross their sovereign land to build the pipeline will be treated as an act of war. The reservation will be closed and equipment will be kept out.
