Students Hurt!
MSSD gate was recently forced open by DPS. They bulldozed the gate open. There were NO INTERPRETERS on the scene. Students were seriously injured. They also dumped massive heaps of “trash” by the front gates, mostly consisting of tents and students’ possessions. Students are very angry
Updates about College Hall Lockdown
Students locked College Hall at midnight, and stayed there until
approximately 8 AM this morning, when they vacated the building, due to a shortage of people to keep it locked down. They only locked the first floor. The building is still closed as of right now, and is secured from the inside. DPS has yellow tape around it, and Fernandes was seen on the scene.

Subject Gallaudet Situation getting worse
If u haven't done so, please call your senators (boxer/ feinstein) or show up at their office today! It is imperative to urge them to pressure BoT to solve this crisis immediately before any more people gets hurt. Ask the senators to contact the 3 congressional BoTs (woosley, mccain, mchood) to urge them to act and attend the BoT meeting this friday or sunday (or send senior staff) on behalf of Congress. It's time for those 3 congressional BoTs to step up.
Encourage ur buddies, families, co-workers to do the same!

Brian here.. I am at hospital right now with a severe injury on my right toe. I woke up this morning seeing 15-20 PPD destroying our fort, taking everything away. So I and other students formed a human chain around the gate. But they all physically assaulted our human chain by pushing the gate away. During the process of it, roller of gate smashed on my right toe...
We neeeed help here, they are doing violence thing to students. Students did not do anything wrong. Not even a dialogue or explaination from them for why to open up gate. They didn't even ask us to move or anything like that... They just bargained in and destroyed our fort. Then physically assaulted our human chain. Enough is enough.
I did nothing wrong! I couldn't believe what happened. Help us... Just want to let you know that I am a bit ok here.. My toe nail is all damaged and need to be removed. There's some bleedings. Will talk more about what happened in vp soon.. ILY xoxo

I don't know if there will be an 8pm meeting now because there is a large group of students protecting MSSD gates and now that they've got it locked down again Chris Corrigan (Mayor of Tent City) has said that there may be mass arrests once more. Ugh. Those willing to be arrested are asked to stay, others may leave. My pager is dying out *GRRRRRR* and my pager charger is elsewhere so don't have it on me. I'm really frustrated with DPS and administration because the students are TRUE BIZ peaceful. They are an *amazing* group of peaceful calm students. Yes, they are angry but it's like they are an ocean... their anger is like the undercurrent below the surface of the water, you know? They're not blowing up and making huge waves like the damn DPS and administration are doing with their violent tactics and actions. The students have been told by Ryan Commerson that they are all doing a wonderful job in keeping their emotions under control. It's okay to be angry and be on high
emotions, but everyone was asked to please keep their emotions under control just like they've been doing thus far. You guys should be PROUD of them, brought tears to my eyes when Chris Corrigan ended the emergency meeting today by saying after he did three "Gallaudet Unite Same!",
"Look at this spirit! They can never break our spirit!" It was beautiful. We all love Chris Corrigan. :)
I have to go... I was awakened by 5AM when a friend paged me, "WHERE ARE YOU? College Hall has been locked down!" Believe you me, I got dressed as fast as I could and ran down to Gallaudet at full speed, only to see the media have already set up camp outside the front gates across the street. But the students fooooooled the stupid DPS officers by going out the back door of College Hall while DPS broke in through the front doors and saw that everyone had left. HAHAHA! Students did NOT damage College Hall and took every precaution to take care of the property. Only "damage" I saw was where students wrote on a couple of whiteboards "JANE RESIGN NOW!" Damage? PUHLEASE... If there's any damage at all, it was done by DPS after all students had cleverly left.
Also, I think now the media have been PAH! listening to the students because I can see some of the reporters asking individuals about the situation so that looks good. Our own Vollmar said to Paul Kelly's face, "You are a liar!" Awesome... the spirit is strong and emotions are running high but we need more support. More money and more bodies... Come on you guys. I postponed my flight back home, you know. I love Gallaudet too much to stay a mere 4.5 days and feel like I didn't do much. So I postponed my flight back home until Nov. 1.
Gotta go. Be proud of Gallaudet students! Send prayers and strong spirits and brave thoughts for everyone! Mass arrests have me worried again. Sigh.
XOXO and hugs!

And as a result, his toe was ran over by gate's wheel (not bulldozer)... it's really bad, but at least his spirits aren't dampended. Un-****ing-believable, really...
