It’s only been a week since our “Conspiracy to Riot” mini-site has gone up, but the amount of feedback and support we’ve received from people is amazing. We’ve received donations from $5 to $1000 and every cent is helping us see this legal battle to the end. Today a RI attorney offered to help out our situation after reading an article about it in the Providence Journal, which was a pleasant surprise. There has been a impressive amount of coverage from websites and blogs. We also received this montage video for the “Conspiracy to Riot” song:
Our site is currently up to date in regard to Jared Paul’s legal case and his arrest story. Please reference Jared’s blog for the unabridged version of his wonderful travels through the St. Paul’s legal system.

“Real people were hurt in St. Paul, and real people have bills to pay, and real people need funding to continue their good works.”-Ted Leo
This will not go away. People are sick of being scared. People are sick of being bullied. Thanks for sticking it out with us and doing whatever you can to help the situation out. There is power in our solidarity.
Peace,
Sage
