police
This time the Carrboro police has been nice enough to clarify the rules ahead of time:
"Hutchison said Carrboro Commune is welcome to protest as long as everyone stays on the sidewalk and out of the street. Anyone crossing the fence onto CVS property at 201 N. Greensboro St. will be warned to leave before officers start charging people with first-degree trespass, she said. Anyone who damages the fence, the building or land will be charged with damage to real property, she added."
Somehow I doubt that the flyer's assertion that all private property is theft is shared by many Carrboro residents.
Special Topic: Chapel Hill's Police and Fire Departments - An Overview
Presentation by Police Chief Chris Blue and Fire Chief Dan Jones.
Date:
Thursday, February 9, 2012 - 12:00pm to 2:00pm
Location:
Council Chamber, Chapel Hill Town Hall
This just arrived from Town Manager Roger Stancil:
In consultation with the Town Attorney, I have developed the following statement that we will provide the media. If you have any questions, please let me know.
At the Town Council meeting Monday night, I and many others felt frustrated, after issuing our statements and as the Council was deliberating, unable to respond to or correct the circuitous discussion between council members, Chief Blue, Mr. Stancil, Mayor Kleinschmidt, and Attorney Karpinos.
Two months later, Chapel Hill Town Manager Roger Stancil has published his memorandum to the Town Council, outlining his "conclusions, actions and recommendations" related to the occupation of and subsequent police raid at the Yates Motor Company building on W. Franklin St. last November. It's an impressively bland endorsement of paramilitary police action, largely devoid of content. Stancil wastes no time in reaching the conclusion you may have expected him to reach—that the police did everything right and nothing wrong—and that if anything needs to happen as a result of these events, it's that the CHPD should adopt a new media relations policy.
