It's not everyday that the shi7storm makes a date.

On Sept 24 and 25 in Pittsburgh countless opportunities for news and change will present themselves.
Will we be ready?
We already have people in place...

But I'm thinking that there must be a lot more ATS operatives in Pits.
Consider this post the opportunity to announce yourself. Organise if need be and represent ATS as our eyes and ears on the ground.
Thanks!

I live in the city of Pittsburgh, the south side for those who know 'tahn. I will be staying at my girlfriend's all week (getting out of dodge). I see a lot going on around the city. Buildings being spruced up, city officials begging for more police presence, Universities and businesses planning to close.

I own a store south of the city in a quiet suburb, and have been seeing Apache AH64's flying around every few days. I can only assume they are doing dry runs for the upcoming G20.

I don't deny anyone's right to protest or free speech. I don't like destruction however.

I really think this is just not the place t have an event like this...logistical or geographical. Our city officials are commonly known as morons and were expecting a big 15 million dollar security grant for this. The feds told them to piss off. I know that they have 1/2 of the state police troops on call plus every available local cop and sheriff's department personnel. Word is they are very short handed for boots on the ground. They are making the police and the protesters camp together in Point State Park. A customer of mine's brother is a local police Sargent and they told him that there is a no call off policy that week. No exceptions.

How will the city pay for this, I really don't know. They are expecting twice as many protesters as London. Some are already here. Western Pa residents are very apprehensive about this, and the local media is not helping by all these scare stories they run every night on the news. If you are coming, please respect my city, but I also understand that you should protect yourself if you are going to be beaten down...

THANK YOU Van001!
Excellent report.
This is exactly what I see as the driving purpose of ATS, and this thread!

More like this please!
(you have now been added to the unofficial ATS Agency pool)

edited to reiterate:

Seriously folks, we have a real opportunity here.
I'm not calling for protesters. By all means, if you feel the need, go ahead. But I'm after REPORTERS and AGENTS.
(what's an agent? they don't exist yet...)
www.abovetopsecret.com...

I think there should be people posting, as it happens. Words, pictures, video, audio, whatever you can muster.

Reporters must be the people with the technology. They, ideally, will be people in Pitts but not at the site. Home towners that can easily access the internet. They can post, as Van001 did, what's going on as they see it, hear it from their local sources.

Others, agents, are in the scrum. I don't really care if theY're protesting or not, but they are along for the ride as UC protesters. (not provocateur, if you are not a protester, then remain not a protester, it's easy to get caught up in the moment.) (either way you still run all risks of your own volition.)

Those in the thick of it may not be able to communicate as well, but we have the time and the technology to overcome this if we want to. But it's not going to work if we don't organise now.

Who's in pitts beside Van001?
Who else is going beside warrenb?
Where will they be?
How will they get messages out?
Phone Cam twitter facebook text skype etc.
and to whom?
We'll still have to get the messages into ATS.
I can offer my services as correlator of info, arrange a muti-user twitter account for instance that repeats on a specific as of yet named ATS forum
Anybody got a better was to collect the data coming in from pits?

Is anybody but me willing to do some work here?
Is anybody listening?
Is there anybody out there?
