we have lightened them and made a local copy of this entire IndyBay

(That is, SBM does not necessary agree with
the words below just because they are copied here.
Our intention is to mirror the entire webpage unmodified, except for
lightening the photos.)

Nov. 11 DeAnza Protest pics. hope you enjoyed
them; got a sense of the action and environment.

at a point where the police
car was smashed, there were several ppl
from the crowd throwing eggs (i heard afterwards
going from several ppl to others) and a
few rocks(?) at the cops who were guarding
the backstage entrance and Powell decoy
car. i wasn't able to take any pics of that
as they were random and hard to capture.

In the previous picture,
Cops intimidating on lookers, photographers
from getting close as they have a male down;
threatening with the spray...one photographer
was jabbed a few times as he came close
taking a couple of snaps.

streetlights..
This is around 11pm. They announce that
those who arent moving forward will be arrested
yet some of those who had taken off are
being tracked by motorcycle cops, and other
cops go forward menacingly forcing the remaining
few who were still observing two blocks
away from this public community college!!!!!
(later a letter from the DeAnza president
asserts that the cops began taking in the
few protesters who were considered violent
and nonstudents which isn't true. ppl were
just observing and some of them were waiting
to enter parking lots back to their cars).
Cops also marched by and blocked areas at
Stevens Creek and extended into the shopping
center towards Coffee Society..

total police state image
(as if there was a curfew or violent confrontations
by all the protesters)!
"this is what a police state looks like!"
