As stated in another blog things got VERY UGLY tonight. I showed up when cops were arresting people blocking the franklin gate. In front of the blockaders there was a line of riot cops. At one point all the cops put on gas masks. People sat down in front of the cops. A cop said that anyone who doesn't want to people sprayed better move. At that point striker vehicles were moving out of the marine drive entrance. We all ran over there. People tried to block them when the cops opened up with pepper spray and pepper ball rounds. I inhaled a bit of pepper spray. At one point as everyone was running the cops threw a flash bang. A very short while later I saw one of the cops throw another flash bang and I shouted "flash bang". Someone had also said that they used CS(tear) gas. More stuff went on but I am to tired and frazzled to write more Jennifer
