Greenpeace: Defending America's Ancient Forests: Klamath Siskiyou

June 24, 2004
7:57 AM PDT: Update From Rundeep

We just got word from inside the container that the first arrest has been made. Butch, a great asset to our team and our medic was just arrested. He was not locked down in any way and was completely non-violent and present on public lands so I'm not sure what the charge is going to be or why he was arrested but we'll continue on.

Run

I want to personally thank all of you for putting your bodies between the forces of destruction and the last vestiges of the ancient world. You are doing some of the most important personal actions one can take. My love and power to you.

Sounds like The Man has worked himself up into a frenzy--arresting anyone in sight. It's inexcusable for them to arrest folks on public land for just standing around. That's OUR land.

You all have a wide support network out here. We'll do whatever we can to help from the cities. Nonviolent direct action to protect the planet's living legacy is noble, not criminal. Keep the faith!
