See the footage from the mccain riots @ the RNC that the mainstream media didn't cover

Last week the mainstream media took the bait from the Republicans, and we were duped into believing that the RNC was delayed because of Hurricaine Gustav. The real reason for the delay in convention commencement is that police riots broke out all over Minneapolis / St. Paul.

Tens of thousands of people came to minneapolis for a week of protests against the war in Iraq and the policies of the republicans. The police caused riots that happened subsequently not only infringed on the civil liberties of the protestors, but rounded up hundreds of bystanders in the mass arrests including hundred of journalists. The national media stood by complicity by covering the snooze fest inside the convention walls while ignoring what was happening in the streets. People were arrested without cause, detained without charges, and in some cases tortured in jail. Running battles in the streets were commonplace, with the clouds of teargas and hail of rubber bullets almost impossible to ignore. Now that all the ballyhoo is settling down the pieces of the story are all coming clearly into view.

Get a sneak peek of some fresh footage at the special LOST FILM FEST event in Los Angeles TONIGHT - Tues Sept 9th to see what the mainstream corporate media isn't telling you.
