Amazing. You know you’ve gone too far when you have a nun arrested. Seriously? A fucking nun?
Yes, and the story is at the D&C, RochesterTurning, and our own Carla Palumbo’s blog. I suspect we’ll be hearing from Jon Greenbaum soon, as well.
Dirty deeds, done dirt cheap by our own Rochester Police Department Monroe County Sheriff’s Department (correction by Carla Palumbo, thank you!). Don’t they have some obligation to enforce our rights, too? I guess asking police to say no to Republicans is too much in our current America, but I’d hoped for better. Welcome to our police state, where Republicans set the rules, tap the phones and network connections, appoint the judges, appoint the prosecutors, decide for the governor what is and what is not enforcible at the DMV, rewrite fire codes and beat up nuns.

A Tribute to John Lennon
In my Internet wanderings I've just stumbled upon "I Dig a Pygmy: A Tribute to John Lennnon" - a piece of "live musique concrète" whose sound sources consisted entirely of the utterances and recordings of John Lennon and the Beatles. The piece was composed and performed by Paul D. Lehrman, who's works include projects for PBS, the Learning Channel and the Discovery Channel to name a few. You can watch his video performance and read the composition notes . . . More. . . ||

[...] weighs in on the mess, which included a nun being manhandled and arrested: Welcome to our police state, [...]
I don’t know if you ever met Sister Grace or been down to the House of Mercy, but she’s no stranger to getting arrested. She’s entirely about social justice, and isn’t afraid to put herself on the line to point to the politically embarrassing, horrible truth.
Which is very good for her. But still, when you’ve arrested a nun, it’s a clear sign that it’s time to reassess your policies.
The word I heard used was “man handled” and pushed around — I thats harder to deal with than a planned arrest. And they don’t like sister grace, they don’t like what she has to say, in fact when I was there Quattro used to leave the room when she spoke. She is no stranger to calling them out on things, were they just waiting for this chance? thats the scary part.
