It started! “If you are not with us, you are against us…” Isn’t that so. Well, looks like people that do not agree with establishment will be put to jail. Among them my favorite journalist and an awesome person Amy Goodman. Why, well, because she is trying to show public how things like 1st amendment and various other freedoms are great for invading countries, but prosecuted with a military force in this country. Be careful Glenn Greenwald, you are next!
Goodman was arrested while attempting to free two Democracy Now! producers who were being unlawfuly detained. They are Sharif Abdel Kouddous and Nicole Salazar. Kouddous and Salazar were arrested while they carried out their journalistic duties in covering street demonstrations at the Republican National Convention. Goodman’s crime appears to have been defending her colleagues and the freedom of the press.

She got released since, but the whole thing is still completely unacceptable.
Here is the video with her after being released:
