Police threatening the media seems more consistent with the county PD's behavior, not the MSHP. Hopefully it's the former in this case.

Twitter's saying that the media is prepared, with at least some with gas masks. Coverage on the scene is probably going to be more extensive this time around.

Yeah. He was posting pictures and videos and comments, but it looks like he's busy.

People are saying the crowd is both pushing forward and pulling back as organizers talk people down.

Never forget that people will always want to see protesters get the poo poo beaten out of them. It happened to suffragettes, it happened to civil rights activists, it happened to OWS, and it doesn't matter how "respectable" or peaceful you are.
