Conan Nolan should not speak for the National Lawyers Guild. They made no such statement that LAPD was given "high marks" for the raid.

The raid was indeed brilliantly executed. It was also militant, SHOCK AND AWE.

"Divide sector tactic." Refer to the manner in which the police setup their lines to divide different groups from each other into sectors and push crowds around to arrest or egress points. Not all people whom attempted to comply with egress routes were indeed allowed to leave. I have interviewed people whom were kennled on 1st between broadway and spring whom attempted to comply with egress orders whom were arrested despite compliance.

LAPD sent envoys to NYC and oakland to consult on eviction.

"crowd was different than those other cities" which is a lie, all were as non violent as the next because this is a non violent movement, even in the face of MASSIVE state violence.

City council did not make the decision to raid, to the contrary, the mayor did.
