FTAA Protests

I was speaking with a friend of mine last night, and it seems some really, really heavy shit went down at the Miami meeting of the FTAA a few weeks ago. Obviously, I had no idea - media coverage has been very limited. I have a few links on my blog, but haven't been able to find much aside from independent media sources. This is ultimately less about international free trade than it is about domestic free speech issues - however you feel about the issues, the stories and images of this protest will make you question what sort of country you are living in.
