“We understand there are those in our community who have expressed concerns about APD issues related to the Department of Justice report. We are working hard to make proactive improvements now and in conjunction with DOJ recommendations. While we welcome constructive discussions, we do not believe disruption of tonight’s city council meeting was a productive way to meet those goals.”

I can think of a more productive way to meet those goals.

Protester Nora Anaya took over Council President Ken Sanchez’s seat and called a “People’s Council” meeting. Chief Eden fled the building after being served a citizen’s arrest warrant, followed by the quick exits of some council members and Sanchez eventually cancelling the meeting after calling a recess that failed to calm the tension in the building.


:) Good for them. Too bad Chief Eden got away but I would love to see pics of the coward making a run for it.

Rebellion In The USA - Protesters Attempt To Arrest Albuquerque Police Chief

...The people are rightfully very upset, which led to a city council meeting being taken over on May 5th protesters. This display of civil disobedience even led to an attempt to serve Police Chief Gorden Eden with an citizen’s arrest warrant. As a result of the protest, the city council moved to prevent protests at their latest meeting, which may lead to free speech related lawsuits.
[...]
People have just about had enough, and civil disobedience will only grow greater in the months and years ahead. This is what happens when a nation morphs into a deranged, oligarchic police state. This is also why the Bundy Ranch standoff was such a huge deal, as I noted in one of my most popular posts of 2014: Why the Standoff at the Bundy Ranch is a Very Big Deal (http://libertyblitzkrieg.com/2014/04/11/why-the-standoff-at-the-bundy-ranch-is-a-very-big-deal/).
