While I agree they shouldn't be wearing the bracelets the fact that it's being ordered by the DOJ is irony at its best, hypocrisy at its worst.

Across the oceans: protesters in Hong Kong are using the "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" over in China.

From Alderman French's Twitter feed, protests are gearing up again tonight. Protesters also rode bikes today after they were told yesterday that there was a "ordinance" that they have to keep moving and not stand still. Is that constitutional?

Pots and pans, drums, and even cowbells are in use tonight. The police are getting pissed off and some are already in riot gear.

This is starting, once again, to have a very '60s era vibe to it.
