Nash anons raided the opening of the ideal celebrity center today. Here's what happened.
Anons were told to leave the area because the CoS had closed the sidewalks. Anons stayed 1/2 a block away from the closure on a different street. CoS security guards approach and harass them into leaving. As they turn and start to walk away, security guards tackle and attack an Anon, placing him under arrest, screaming at him, handcuffing him, and dragging him away behind their barriers while he's yelling for help and to be let go. Anons call the police who took half an hour to get there, and then cited the Anon for aggravated criminal trespassing.
1. The Anons were not on the sidewalks marked closed.
2. The Anons checked with the permit office and were able to verify they were not on the sidewalks that were closed.
3. The Anons discovered that the permits filed to closed the streets actually expired YESTERDAY.
4. Every single thing, including the assault from behind and the kidnapping of the Anon was filmed. Video to be uploaded soon.

We were walking up 8th Ave to the party. THey had a huge stage up in the middle of 8th Ave, and had everything infront of the CoS blocked. THere was a "Sidewalk Closed" sign about 500 yards from where we were stopped. There were no signs anywhere else, other than a "Left Lane Closed" sign that we were just infront of.
Security guards swarmed, 3 from directly in front of us, and 2 that ran across the street. They said "Take off your masks or we'll take them off for you". They said we needed to "take our asses out of here". I asked the female guard, "Is this not a public sidewalk?" She said no, that they had purchased the sidewalks for the day and that we needed to leave. I replied that there weren't any signs. She started screaming that we needed to get the fuck out, so we turned to leave. As Anon 44 turned to leave, they came at him from behind, sideswiped his legs, and threw him to the ground. As they pinned him to ground, they screamed at him that he needed to leave. He said over and over, "I'm willing to leave! I'm trying to leave!" and they still screamed that he needed to leave. Note we were STILL about 500 yards from the first "sidewalk closed" sign. I called 911, it took them over 30 minutes to send an officer out. BY that point, we had 44 back, bruised and scraped. When he was walking away, he actually skipped back to us. ROFL. He got cited with a Misdemeanor for "Aggravated Criminal Trespassing". The cop that showed up 30 minutes after the 911 call refused me a police report. He was very rude.
We have 10 minutes of video. I am not going to post it until we've talked to a lawyer.
Also I'm going to edit out my 911 call and me crying hysterically.
Gear up for May 2nd, bitches. It's on.
