By Paul Demko, Minnesota Independent
September 01, 2008

For a complete list of articles on the RNC, go to our RNC 2008 page.


As of 8 p.m. this evening, 163 protesters had been processed through the Ramsey County Jail. This includes 73 felony arrests, 42 gross misdemeanors and 48 misdemeanors, according to the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office. Arraignments will be held beginning at 8 a.m. tomorrow.

Police estimate the crowd at today’s protest rally was between 8,000 and 10,000. If accurate, that’s far short of the 50,000 anticipated by parade organizers.

Coldsnap Legal Collective, which has been diligently monitoring police activities throughout the day, reports different arrest figures. They’re reporting that 256 people have been arrested, with 119 felonies, 48 gross misdemeanors and 89 misdemeanors.

The musical, currently playing at Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, isn't an artistic breakthrough and it isn't the best show I expect to see all year, or even all month. It is, however, an energetic experience that's sure to meet audience expectations for a fun night out. And beyond the expected dance show, this staging offers an additional emotional punch, underscoring the various ways we deal with heartache and the ties that bind us.MORE »
