juldeaI have spent the last hour or so reading all of the associated links from this in horror.
The sum up: a rave in Utah, (allegedly, but I really do tend to believe the individuals more than the government on this kind of thing) on private property, was broken up by SWAT police with rifles, who (allegedly) used excessive force to beat, arrest, and otherwise be completely unreasonable in shutting this party down. I'm talking people being mauled by police dogs, false arrests, all the fun stuff.
Please check out the linked amateur video... and the collection of eyewitness accounts.
I wish I could do something to help this. Anything. It makes me sick to my stomach.

gaffman, zenandtheart, please let me know if you know of any ways I can help. I know you're international, but you might know how to get ahold of the right people, or just what I can do from the outside. I guess mr_teem might know some things, too...
