This conversation happened as the police (over 60 were present)
were arresting 38 protesters, including David Hartsough,
San Francisco Meeting, RSF. 14 arrests were violent,
including headlock, ankle twist, temple hold, and jaw
squeeze. The Santa Cruz FNB and East Bay Seeds of
Peace were stellar in their support.
Please write mayor jordan at City Hall, San Francisco 94108 USA
and tell him to ease the pressure. We have fed people
at that spot for two years without incident and now,
since Sept2, there have been over 100 arrests. We
have lost so much property to the police (buckets, trucks)
as to be crippled(at least limping).
People's rights are being taken. Women are being molested
as they are arrested. Men are being beat. Please help.

A suggestion to sell the food for a penny has been tried.
No permit.
As far as food not bombs being a local issue, why don't you
take it national.
