			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>PROGRESS REPORT FOR FEBRUARY 8, 2010<br />
1. Legal cases</p>
<p>I have three legal cases active at present.  You are aware of the case against Homeland Security et al.  The civil complaint has been mailed to the U. S. District Court in Manhattan.  A criminal complaint has been mailed to the JURY ADMINISTRATION OFFICE NEW YORK COUNTY SUPREME COURT, DA OFFICE OF SPECIAL PROSECUTOR, and CIVILIAN COMPLAINT REVIEW BOARD COMPLAINT UNIT for consideration by a NY Grand Jury.  One of my legal advocates has agreed to write the criminal complaint to be submitted for consideration by a U. S. Grand Jury.</p>
<p><span id="more-5035"></span></p>
<p>On April 17, 2007, I was arrested for protesting across the street from the UN building in Manhattan when the President of Iran was speaking.  I was not committed at arraignment, but agreed to attend a court hearing.  When the court did not respond to any of my queries, I did not appear at the hearing.  A bench arrest warrant was issued.  There is no intent of the court to prosecute the case.  The purpose of the arrest warrant is to make it difficult to sue the police.  I tried to get this warrant quashed in the NY Supreme Courts, but failed.  As a result I filed two civil complaints in the U. S. District Court.  In one of these cases, I sued several NY judges, the DA, and the NY City Comptroller.  In the other complaint, I sued the NY City police.  I intend to file criminal complaints against the NY City police.</p>
<p>The complaint against the judges et al has been dismissed by the U. S. District Court based on immunity arguments.  I have filed an appeal with the U.S . Court of Appeals: 2nd Circuit.  I have been awaiting a hearing for oral argument for 6 months.  I have written to U. S. Supreme Court Ruth Bader Ginsburg asking her to get the Circuit Court to proceed.  No response yet.  Judge Ginsburg is the Supreme Court judge who oversees the 2nd circuit appeals court.</p>
<p>The complaint against the police was accepted by the District Court, and a judge was appointed in January, 2009.  So far there has been no movement, though there has been an extensive exchange of correspondence.  I have asked the judge three times to recuse himself, but he  refuses to do so.  Recently I have filed a complaint of judicial misconduct against the judge with the Court of Appeals: 2nd Circuit.</p>
<p>2. My web page</p>
<p>Now, with the help of my webmaster, I am in the process of updating my web site at <a href="http://www.personal.psu.edu/jph13/">http://www.personal.psu.edu/jph13/</a>.  There are 5 new links on my home page.  These are:</p>
<p>a. Fully Informed Jury Demonstrations  Already posted are the e-mail summaries of the six events at which I was cited last fall.<br />
b. NY City Police Crimes as of 10-19-09.  This  has just been posted.  It lists 23 crimes committed by the NY Police in the last few years.<br />
c. Judicial Failure.  This has just been posted.  It shows the pertinent documents in my current lawsuit against the NY State judiciary.<br />
d.  NY City Police Civil Lawsuit as of 01-24-10.  This is just being posted.  About 10 of the 20 links have been posted.  I hope to get the other links posted in the next week. It shows the pertinent documents in my current lawsuit against the NY City Police.<br />
e. &#8220;Homeland Security: The U. S. Gestapo&#8221;  This has not been posted yet, but will be by the end of February.  It will show the pertinent documents in my current lawsuit against Homeland Security et al.</p>
<p>3. My current plans</p>
<p>a. The rest of February will be dedicated to updating my web page.<br />
b. In March, I hope to get the three new criminal complaints submitted, prepare and deliver speeches, and prepare my income taxes (ugh).<br />
c. In April, it is back to passing out FIJA literature at U. S. courthouses.  Some of you have indicated an interest in joining in this activity. I particularly encourage the retired elderly to participate for 2 reasons:<br />
i. You have nothing to lose if arrested.  You cannot lose your job.  You do not have one.  Your future cannot be destroyed.  You do not have one.  You will not be sent to jail. It is too costly to keep old people in jail and provide their medicines and nursing care.  The worst that can happen is a fine of less than $200 and parole.  Your parole officer will not have any interest in you, so that this would be a formality.<br />
ii.  Our generation of oldtimers caused the problem.  It is only appropriate that we attempt to fix it.</p>
<p>3. Courthouse action</p>
<p>Beginning In April, I will return to the US. District courthouses to distribute FIJA material.  There are ten such courthouse within reasonable driving distance for me.  These are in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and White Plains in NY; Newark, Trenton, and Camden in NJ; and Philadelphia, Reading, Allentown, and Easton in eastern PA.  I will need your help in targeting all of these places.</p>
<p>Targeting the U. S. district courts is a trifecta:<br />
a. We inform the jurors of their obligation to deliver justice.<br />
b. We will stop Homeland security from infringing on our first amendment rights.<br />
c.  Hopefully, the courts will get the picture that they must stop being in collusion with the police and start delivering rapid justice.  If not we will have to shut them down by massive acts of civil disobedience.</p>
<p>4. Tyranny Fighters E-mail list</p>
<p>There now are 132 names on my E-mail Tyranny fighters list.  However some of these are E-mail lists.  In addition two of you have informed me that you are forwarding the progress reports to your own lists of more than 400 people each.  Also our publicity team is spreading the word  Almost certainly we are reaching over 1000 people now.  This is a group that can have some influence if we all participate.</p>
<p>5.  Your assignment</p>
<p>Your assignments are threefold:<br />
a. publicity, publicity, publicitly<br />
b. Get new members for the Tyranny Fghters E-mail list.<br />
c. Plan actions of of your own.  Keep me informed of these, so that I can pass the information to the E-mail list.<br />
d. Let me know if you will participate at any of the above-named courthouses.</p>
<p>6.  My schedule &amp; availability</p>
<p>Currently I am slated to give talks on March 8 to the NY Libertarian Party (The State of the Union) in Manhattan,  on March 13, to the NJ Libertarian Party (The State of the Union) at Rutgers University, on March 27 to the Libertarian Party of PA state convention (Judicial Collapse), and deliver the sermon (Who are the Jews) on May 8 at Congregation Beth Shalom in Teaneck, NJ.  I will be in Cromwell, CT from February 10-13, the Silicon Valley, CA area from February 25-30, and in Las Vegas, Nevada from March 1-5.</p>
<p>I travel around the country a lot.  I am available to participate in actions or give talks in your area when I am in your vicinity for no fee.  It is worth the price.  If I have to make a special trip to get there, I will need travel and lodging expenses.</p>
<p>7.  Talks I can give</p>
<p>1. The State of the Union<br />
2. Police malpractice<br />
3. NY City police crimes<br />
4. Government Misonduct<br />
5. American Justice<br />
6. Jury Selection in Centre County, PA<br />
7. Truth about Marijuana<br />
8. Marijuana Smokeouts<br />
9. Fully Informed Jury<br />
10. Prison State &amp; Life in Prison<br />
11. Annulment of Bill of Rights<br />
12. How Bin Laden won the war</p>
<p>These are all variations of the same speech.  I just change the titles so that you think that you will hear something new if you come for another talk.  Actually, you will learn something new, because you will have forgotten what I said the previous time.</p>
<p>Warning: You should know that The Federal Protective Service, and possibly the FBI,  is intercepting my e-mails.  Another violation of our civil liberties.  Be prudent if you write to me.</p>
<p>Mike Benoit has written a book entitled &#8220;Sham and Shame of the Federal Income Tax.&#8221;   You can purchase it directly from him for five dollars. His E-mail address is in the header of this E-mail.</p>

<blockquote><p>Hi Tyranny Fighters:</p>
<p>We now are getting organized.  The following organizational help has materialized:</p>
<ol>
<li>Four photographers have taken videos of the FIJA demonstrations. Two of them I do not know. One photographer has provided the critical video of October 26, 2009, when I was charged with forcibly resisting arrest. Antonio Musumeci, a photographer who received a citation, has agreed to be a co-plaintiff on the civil case.</li>
<li>I have two legal advocates that help prepare legal briefs.</li>
<li>One of you has agreed to be my webmaster.  Stuff will appear on my web page shortly.</li>
<li>One of you has offered to write an article about the arrests  for publication in a mainstream magazine.</li>
<li>At least 3 of you are regularly providing publicity.  These are Garry Reed, Mike Benoit, and Antonio Musumeci. There are others also, but I am unaware of names or details.</li>
<li>Iloilo Jones of FIJA has been very helpful and supportive.</li>
<li>Some of you are forwarding my e-mails to your e-mail lists.</li>
<li>One of you makes my signs.</li>
<li>Staples has been very helpful in copying, binding and delivery of manuscripts.</li>
</ol>
<p>Future activities include two speeches that I will give: on March 13 at the NJ Libertarian Party Convention at Rutgers; and on May 8, I will deliver the sermon at Congregation Beth Shalom in Teaneck. NJ.  When the weather gets warmer (March or April), I will return to the Monday appearances at the U. S. District Courthouse in Manhattan.</p>
<p>Court cases: Today the civil complaint against Homeland Security and others went to Staples for copying and binding.  It will be mailed to the court on Wednesday hopefully (or Thursday).  Next will be the criminal complaint to the grand Jury of New York County (Manhattan). The criminal complaint is nearly in final form and should be submitted the first week in February.  Copies of these complaints will be posted on my web page.</p>
<p>In regard to the Homeland Security action, both Musumeci and I were summoned to magistrate court  for January 19.  I notified the court that I would not appear or pay the fines. Musumeci appeared with a lawyer from the NY Civil Liberties Union, which has agreed to represent him. However Officer Barnes, who wrote the citations did not appear.  The cases should have been dismissed, because the citing officer did not appear. However, the magistrate postponed the hearing for a month.  I assure you that if Barnes had appeared, but we did not, judgment would have been rendered against us. That is what equal justice means in the U.S.</p>
<p>Right now what I need from the rest of you is publicity, publicity, publicity.  Notify your e-mail lists and write letters-to-the editor. Also ask others to join us.  At the moment we have over 100 people on this e-mail list, but we will need 1000 in order to spread the actions accordingly.  I expect to go to the District Courthouse in Newark, NJ, as well as in Manhattan, in the spring.</p>
<p>Warning: You should know that The Federal Protective Service is intercepting my e-mails. Another violation of our civil liberties.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From an email received around noon, 2010-01-15:</p>
<blockquote><p>Hi Tyranny Fighters:</p>
<p>I received 4 summons from the District Magistrate of the U. S. District Court in Manhattan.   These were 3 citations and one misdemeanor criminal charge that I received while distributing FIJA literature in front of the courthouse.  The fine for each of the citations was $100.00, which I could pay by mail or appear in court on January 19, 2010.  I was ordered to appear on January 19, 2010 in court for the misdemeanor charge of forcibly resisting arrest.</p>
<p>I notified the magistrate by mail that I would not pay the fines nor appear in court.  Four reasons were given in my letter.  The complete letter is posted at:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.personal.psu.edu/jph13/Letter_to_U._S._Magistrate_of_January_4,_2010.html" target="_blank">http://www.personal.psu.edu/jph13/</a>&#8230;</p>
<p>From the above you can see that I have resuscitated my web page, which has been idle for over seven years.  I completely forgot how to use the web.  I have spent 5 full days relearning how to do this.  Much more material will be appearing there in the near future concerning the court cases.  If any of you have freedom pages on your websites, let me know.  I would be interested in looking at them and linking any appropriate sites.</p>
<p>I am adding a section to my periodic E-mails to inform you of freedom activities of other tyranny fighters.  If their activities are of interest to you, please contact them.  Their E-mail addresses will be in my E-mail open addresses at the top of my E-mails.  There are at least 3 people who would be delighted to hear from you.  They are listed below.  If you would like to be added to the list, let me know in what activities you are involved.</p>
<p>Contacts</p>

<blockquote><p>Dear ACLU Supporter,<br />
Negotiations on the final health care bill pick up speed this week. As you may know, anti-choice forces in Congress have used this legislation as a vehicle for advancing their agenda.</p>
<p>We must make sure that the final bill will protect reproductive freedom, not put it in peril.</p>
<p>Tell Sen. Frank R. Lautenberg and Sen. Robert &#8216;Bob&#8217; Menendez and Rep. Steven &#8216;Steve&#8217; R. Rothman to protect women&#8217;s access to abortion in health care reform.</p>
<p>Health care reform should improve people&#8217;s lives. That&#8217;s why we have to make the most of our last opportunity to insist that health care reform should improve women&#8217;s health and lives &#8212; not interfere in their ability to get the health care they need.</p>
<p>Representative Bart Stupak and other architects of the severe restrictions on women&#8217;s health in both the House and Senate bills are campaigning hard, threatening to derail health care legislation altogether if anyone tampers with the severe restrictions they forced into both bills. Even our allies in Congress are feeling pressure. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s so urgent that you take action today.</p>
<p>Both bills stigmatize abortion coverage and ignore the reality that abortion services are basic health care for women.</p>
<p>Tell your members of Congress that Stupak-style restrictions must not be part of any final legislation that goes to President Obama&#8217;s desk.</p>
<p>Anti-choice forces are working round-the-clock to keep severe abortion restrictions in the health care bill.  We have to work just as hard to get those restrictions out.</p>
<p>Negotiations on a final bill are happening now.</p>
<p>Please act immediately to insist on health reforms that will protect reproductive freedom, not put it in peril.</p>
<p>Thank you for standing with us.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Vania Leveille<br />
ACLU Legislative Counsel</p></blockquote>

<li>Women&#8217;s &#8220;reproductive freedom&#8221; is not in peril as a result of the upcoming bill.</li>
<li>I seriously doubt the bill will &#8220;interfere in their [the women] ability to get health care they need.&#8221; It will likely require them to pay for it explicitly.</li>
<li>Health care reform should improve people&#8217;s lives. I find it sad the ACLU is incapiple of recognizing that this or any similiar bill will do nothing of the sort. The health care problem stems from government intervention. Continuing the fascistic takeover of health care by corporations and the government is not the right solution. Reversing those interventions which create the problems are.</li>
<li>Abortion services are in no way a &#8220;basic health care&#8221; for women. According to a quick Google search there are 4.0945 abortions per 1,000 people in the United states. Of those 1,000, 508 are women (50.8% of population). Therefore, assuming no woman has more then one abortion, 4.0945/508 = .00806 or .8% of women &#8220;require&#8221; abortion services.</li>
</ol>
<p>I appreciate some of the actions taken by the ACLU, including the NYCLU helping me with my arrest and upcoming court date, but things like this are completely contrary to any form of liberty I&#8217;m a subscriber of. The government has no role, morally or constitutionally,  in health care or insurance.</p>

The Supreme Court of Canada transformed the country&#8217;s libel laws Tuesday with a pair of decisions that proponents say will expand the boundaries of free speech.
The court ruled that libel lawsuits will rarely succeed against journalists who act responsibly in reporting their stories when those stories are in the public interest.
It also updated the laws [...]

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Freedom Fighters</p>
<p>I will NOT be at the District Courthouse on Monday, since I am leaving town for three weeks on December 2.  You will not be receiving any e-mails from me for the next month.</p>
<p>I have completed the first draft of the civil complaint and sent it to our judicial advocate for comments and corrections.  From it he will prepare the criminal complaint.</p>
<p>Both complaints will be submitted on or about February 1, 2010.</p>
<p>I am suing the Department of Homeland Security, the New York City Fire Department, Saint Vincent Hospital, Bellevue Medical Center, the New York Downtown Hospital, and many of their employees for kidnapping, larceny, extortion, assault, perjury, coercion, unlawful imprisonment in the first degree, robbery in the third degree, official misconduct, and violation of my civil rights under U. S. Constitution Amendments I, IV, V, and XIV.</p>
<p>Your job is publicity, publicity, publicity.  Also, I am hopeful that each of you can recruit 1, 2, or more freedom fighters for my Freedom Fighters list.  We need to build our numbers so that we can swing into</p>
<p>larger actions. Currently there are 6 Freedom Fighters on the open list and 94 on the closed list.  This brings us to 101 (including me) members, which in my mind makes us officially a movement.  We are now ready to move into some stepped up activities, which I have planned after the civil and criminal complaints are filed.</p>
<p>However to move into major action, we need an army of 1000 freedom fighters.  I am counting on you to provide that army.</p>
<p>Seasons greeting to:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; ">Christians: Merry Christmas<br />
Jews: Happy Chanukah<br />
African Americans: Fulfilling Kwanzaa<br />
Atheists:  Thank you for doing God&#8217;s work</p>
<p>THE PRICE OF LIBERTY IS ETERNAL VIGILANCE</p>
<p>THE PRICE OF JUSTICE IS ETERNAL PUBLICITY</p>
<p>Yours in freedom—Julian</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Freedom Fighters:</p>
<p>Here is my report from the incident at the U. S. District Courthouse for the Southern District of New York on November 16, 2009:</p>
<p>FIJA  DEMONSTRATION  OF  11/16/09</p>
<p>I arrived at he U. S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, 500 Pearl Street in Manhattan at 11:45 am on Monday, November 16, 2009.  The weather was perfect: warm and sunny.  I stood in the middle of the plaza in front of the courthouse.</p>
<p>I started to pass out the FIJA pamphlet entitled “A Primer for Prospective Jurors” along with my handout  (see below). Two photographers, whom I do not know, were present  At 11:48 am, I was approached by two federal marshals, who  informed me that I had to leave.  I demurred.  They said that they would have to report me and left.</p>
<p>I passed out about 8 flyers, when three police officers from the Department of Homeland Security approached me at about 11:58 am.  The leader was my friend Officer Barnes from previous encounters.  After we exchanged the usual pleasantries, he placed me under arrest, and I fell to the ground.  He confiscated my remaining brochures and my JURY INFO sign.  He left a receipt and a citation 41 CFR, Sub C Section 102 #74.415(c), the same as previously (see below).  He unarrested me at 12:05 pm, and the police left the scene.</p>
<p>The Homeland Security Police also approached the photographers.  Apparently one left, but the other would not.  He was taking pictures of my arrest.  He was placed under arrest.  However, he apparently had a permit to photograph a trial, which was the reason he was there. He identified himself as a photographer for the “Post.” He was not cited nor any of his property confiscated.</p>
<p>Another pedestrian was standing about 20 feet away observing events. The police approached him nd told him that he had to leave.  Apparently standing on federal property is also an offense.  However,  apparently he left and was not cited.</p>

<div id="hidefrompromo" style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; font-size: 10px; color: #666666;"><img style="padding-bottom: 5px;" src="http://image3.examiner.com/images/blog/EXID26370/images/JulianAndPolice.jpg" alt="" width="371" height="282" /><br />
Julian Heicklen is confronted by police for apparently committing the<br />
crime of free speech on public property (screenshot from spycam<br />
video by bile)</div>
<p>Police arrested a freelance videographer and confiscated the memory card from his camera while he was recording FIJA activist Julian Heicklen Monday.</p>
<p>The videographer, who goes by the name of &#8220;bile,&#8221; was standing on public property at the time.</p>
<p>Heicklen, for the fourth Monday (jury selection day) in a row, was passing out the <a href="http://fija.org/" target="_blank">Fully Informed Jury Association</a> (FIJA) pamphlets, “A Primer for Prospective Jurors” at the federal courthouse in New York City.</p>
<p>After police briefly spoke to Heicklen and left, bile approached him and conducted a short interview.</p>
<p>As he explained on the <a href="http://freetalklive.com/" target="_blank">Free Talk Live</a> radio call-in show that evening, bile had heard about Julian&#8217;s previous activism and arrests and decided to support him by acting as a witness.</p>
<p>The police, with additional officers, returned and asked Heicklen to leave. He declined, so they announced he was under arrest. As Heicklen always does, he dropped to the ground and went limp and silent.</p>
<p><span id="more-4957"></span>It was then that Police confronted bile with his digital camcorder. When bile informed them that, &#8220;I was working for Free Talk Live,&#8221; they said he was under arrest for breaking a federal statute that regulates what people on federal property may photograph.</p>
<p>Bile was told he was guilty of photographing &#8220;without permission.&#8221;</p>
<p>After convincing the police to take only his memory card &#8220;for evidence&#8221; rather than his camera, and accepting a receipt for it and a citation for his offense, bile was released.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, police confiscated Heicklen&#8217;s remaining FIJA brochures, his JURY INFO sign, and left him a receipt and a citation.</p>
<p>Joel Kupferman, a lawyer and Executive Director of the <a href="http://www.nyenvirolaw.org/" target="_blank">New York Environmental Law &amp; Justice Project</a>, appeared at the scene and observed the events. An NBC reporter was also noted to be present.</p>
<p>For the first time in four trips to the courthouse to hand out FIJA fliers, Heicklen was released rather than arrested and then transported to a psychiatric hospital.</p>
<div style="margin: 10pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; font-size: 10px; color: #666666;"><img style="padding-bottom: 5px;" src="http://image3.examiner.com/images/blog/EXID26370/images/JulianBridgePlayer.jpg" alt="" width="230" height="187" /><br />
When he&#8217;s not fighting for everyone&#8217;s civil<br />
liberties, Julian Heicklen is a Diamond Life<br />
Master bridge player with over 5000 master<br />
points. Last May he competed at the<br />
Richmond Memorial Day Weekend Regional<br />
in Richmond VA. (photo courtesy of Jonathan<br />
Steinberg)</div>
<p>Articles covering Heicklen&#8217;s previous efforts can be read at the <a href="http://www.examiner.com/x-26370-Libertarian-News-Examiner?showbio" target="_blank">Libertarian News Examiner</a>. Also, Heicklen always writes his own reports on the day&#8217;s events and Len Flynn always posts them in their entirety on the <a href="http://njlp.org/home" target="_blank">New Jersey Libertarian Party</a> homepage.</p>
<p>Bile also wrote and posted his own detailed account of his encounter with the American police state, <a href="../2009/11/09/arrested-for-filming-the-arrest-of-julian-heicklen-on-federal-property/" target="_blank">&#8220;Arrested for filming the arrest of Julian Heicklen on federal property.&#8221;</a></p>
<p>But bile was one step ahead of the police. As he revealed in <a href="http://cdn1.libsyn.com/ftl/FTL2009-11-09.mp3?nvb=20091110165843&amp;nva=20091111170843&amp;t=03aff50471df74f31f092" target="_blank">his report on Free Talk Live</a> (he&#8217;s in the second half of the broadcast), &#8220;I had a little spycam that I had tucked in my belt that was recording the whole time just in case something happened with my camcorder.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bile&#8217;s spycam video can be seen at <a href="../" target="_blank">blog of bile</a>. Bile also escaped with his audio interview of Heicklen and it is posted on the same blog page just below the video.</p>
<p>In an email to his growing number of supporters nationwide, Heicklen explained the motivation behind his actions.</p>
<p>&#8220;Originally, I went to the US District Court in Manhattan to inform juries of their rights. For me this is now the secondary issue. The primary issue has become freedom of speech. Jury nullification has become the vehicle to reclaim this right.&#8221;</p>
<p>Heicklen ends his reports on this ominous note:</p>
<p><strong>Warning: You should know that The Federal Protective Service is intercepting my e-mails. Another violation of our civil liberties.</strong></p>
<p>However, a growing number of supporters have been responding to Heicklen&#8217;s call to action. The presence of bile, Joel Kupferman and the NBC reporter are part of that response.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I arrived at he U. S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, 500 Pearl Street in Manhattan at 11:45 am on Monday, November 9, 2009.  The weather was perfect: warm and sunny.  I stood in the middle of the plaza in front of the courthouse.</p>
<p>I started to pass out the FIJA pamphlet entitled “A Primer for Prospective Jurors” along with my handout  (see below). A freelance reporter form Free Talk Live was present.  At 11:48, I was approached by two federal marshals, who identified themselves as Musumeci and<br />
Sullivan.  They would not give first names and said that they had no badge numbers.  They informed me that I had to leave.  I demurred.  They said that they would have to report me and left.</p>
<p>I passed out about 15 flyers, when three police from the Department of Homeland Security approached me at about 12:20 pm.  The leader was my friend Officer Barnes from two weeks ago.  After we exchanged the usual pleasantries, he placed me under arrest, and I fell to the ground.  He confiscated my remaining five brochures and my JURY INFO sign.  He left a receipt and a citation 41 CFR, Sub C Section 102 #74.415(c), the same as two weeks earlier.</p>
<p>During the exchange with the police, the Free Talk Live reporter videotaped the event and interviewed me until he was stopped and cited by the police under 41 CFR, Subsection C,  §102–74.420 for photographing without a permit.  They confiscated his film.</p>
<p>At about 12:30 pm, while I was still on the ground, Joel Kupferman, a lawyer and Executive Director of the New York Environmental &amp; Justice Project appeared and observed.  Then the police left at 12:35 pm.  I stood up and the event was over.</p>
<p>We noticed that an NBC reporter was present, but we did not interact with him.  Joel and I went to a Chinese soup shop and had hot and sour soup.  I arrived home at about 3:15 pm.</p>
<p>Warning: You should know that The Federal Protective Service, and possibly the FBI,  is intercepting my e-mails.  Another violation of our civil liberties.  Be prudent if you write to me.</p>
