so many things to say about this. but I really don't want this to turn into a black-bloc flame war. But, let me just say if this sounds strangely like a fear tactic and until reading this you never thought to feel personally threatened by the mythical black-bloc group.. there's a reason, cause it's mostly BS. The Oscar Grant riot was a bunch of people without mask looting stuff... this hasn't happened once during the occupy movement.I just hope this doesn't scare anyone away from being downtown after the 9pm shut down.

The flier above (pdf) are guidelines for tomorrow night's First Friday Event
in lieu of expected potential violence from the group listed in the web site
above. Apparently at sites (unknown to me) this black bloc group has been
advocating that people come out en mass and cause trouble after First Friday
is over. We are asking that groups meeting in the building disburse by
11pm and that all doors, esp. doors to Broadway, 22nd Street and the Alley
behind out of 2135, as well as the gate into the front entrance of 2135, be
securely locked by this time. George will be there at that time to convince
all to leave the building and he will secure it.
Groups or individuals not adhering to this warning and coming back to the
building after that time may find themselves responsible not only for
damages to their persons but damage done to the building or others.
This is a serious issue; even the Security Ambassadors are being asked to go
home by midnight for their own personal safety, and there is no expectation
that the police will have enough personnel on the streets should this get
out of hand.
Many of you were not there a few years ago during the (Oscar Grant)
riots....it was not pretty, and there WAS damage to our property. Trouble
is NOT expected early in the evening. Enjoy yourselves, but try to monitor
alcohol consumption (your own and those around you) for the safety of all
tomorrow evening...and get home early....and SAFELY!
Laurie & George
