POLICE STATE: "New NATO/G8 Ordinances Proposed by Emanuel Would Become Permanent"

read more from chicagoist....

"When Mayor Emanuel introduced changes to the city’s parade ordinances last month that would increase fines for violations at protests and change park hours ahead of the NATO/G8 summits, he said the changes were “temporary…just for the conference and it’s appropriate.” The Tribune reports the mayor’s office acknowledged yesterday however, that those changes would be permanent. In addition to a major increase in fines, the ordinance would also now reduce the hours for a legal demonstration to two hours."
