(Another article I posted this morning questioned whether the ‘Green Scare’ is actually an attack on radical environmental organizing, or just a ‘vigorous’ effort by governments and corporations to protect their property. It’s a good question, and of course we continue to ask questions and try to learn from what we see going on.

A ‘green scare’ in shades of gray
Invoking the Red Scare of the 1950s, some environmentalists claim the federal government is committing something similar against the green movement of the 2000s. Of course, it could simply be vigorous enforcement of laws against violence and property damage.

From Paul Loney, Tre’s attorney…
Hi folks,
Tre’s 5/6/2008 Jury Trial has been reset for 7/8/2008 at 09:00AM
before Judge James A. Redden. We needed to set a new trial date
because additional time is needed for pretrial investigation and trial
preparation. So there is no court appearance for May 6th. The July 8th
date is also subject to change.
