Joel Dow Arrested at Portland Anti-Police Demo, Charged with Felonies, Solidarity Needed!

** PLEASE FORWARD WIDELY **

As many of you know, a quick and severe response was generated against
police violence in Portland during the last week. A cop killed somebody
and the same night a riot took to the streets, smashing up things and
clogging up traffic. Marches continue and portland indymedia provides a
little less info than desirable.

Joel Dow was arrested at one of these marches and charged with:
ASSAULT II (B Felony) $250,000 Unsentenced
ASSAULT POLICE OFF (C Felony) $5,000 Unsentenced
RECK ENDANGER (A Misdemeanor) $2,500 Unsentenced
DISORDERLY COND 2 (B Misdemeanor) $1,500 Unsentenced

They need bail money fast, which you can donate via paypal:

Multnomah County Justice Ctr

Keep up the heat an keep throwing down,
