As FTAA protests come to a end the anarchists prepare to launch a new battle in the Southern California area. May Day 2001. Anarchists say that it is a international day of militiant action. Anarchists claim that this year they will get revenge for what happend in Haymarket over one hundred years ago. How will they get it? They will not comment. Even the exact location is kept secret though they hint that it will be close to downtown Los Angeles. Instead of a location, they put a hotline number on the flyer, as well as a web site. One thing is known, the black clad anarchists made a damaging impact on last years October 22nd protests in Los Angeles in a scene right out of Monday night at the Democratic National Convention. Their website tells people to get protective gear, and where to buy it. It even has a link to a group called "Ya Basta!", where they tell you how to make shields, and disarm police. What will they do next? How far will they go?
