Anarchists and community activists attended a City Council meeting where the last item (29) was the prosecuters report on "the prosecution of anarchists". About 10 anarchists/activists showed up the meeting to respond to, and listen to the the agenda item, in which the prosecuter portrayed anarchists as violent criminals who broke the law and disrupted the city on May Day 2001, therefor giving the police justification to unleash the worst case of police brutality Long Beach has ever seen in the past 33 years.

Demonstrators suffered injuries ranging from minor wounds to fractured arms, and penetrating wounds from 12-gauge shot guns shooting scatter-shot projectiles. The prosecuter and police tell lies to justify their bloody outragious attack against a peaceful march - which unforantly turned violent thanks to police who decided to unleash their brutal riot.

Please listen to the sound clip to hear anarchists response to the prosecuters "report" in which he justifies the brutality and repression of anarchists and activists in long beach.
