Schmidt gave an example to illustrate his point: a teenager commits a crime, goes to juvenile hall, and is released. In America's legal system, the person can apply and have the crime expunged from their record then legally state they were never convicted of anything. But the same isn't true on the Internet. A potential employer could still run a reference check online and find out about a crim…http://www.twitpic.com/cotec1

After rallying at Union Square, delegations from practically every union in the city marched into the streets and made their way down Broadway on the five-mile trek to City Hall.

We think that we need to support the rights of immigrants and really push to build a movement to tie it home, with all these working-class issues,” said Justin Kennedy of Socialist Alternative.

#union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Occupy Buffalo sues city over raid http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130427/CITYANDREGION/130429217/1010 A predawn police raid that removed Occupy Buffalo from Niagara Square last year has led to a lawsuit accusing the city of using excessive force during the operation. The local Occupy organization claims the city violated members’ civil liberties by using bulldozers and heavy equipment to remove the tents, tables, chairs and other personal items at its encampment in front of City Hall. The group’s suit, filed in Buffalo federal court, is seeking a court-ordered judgment that the city violated people’s rights, as well as ,000 in damages.

The show, titled Art for an Oil-Free Coast, which features dozens of artists, including venerable Canadian wildlife painter Robert Bateman, landed this week inside Calgary City Hall targeting the proposed .5-billion Northern Gateway pipeline, which could carry Alberta oil to British Columbia for export.
