I just looked at NewsOK.com and saw a picture of who I thought was Huti Reynolds (a Green Party of Oklahoma member from Porum) right on the “front page” of the website, so I called him on his cell phone and found out that he and Joni LeViness (a GPOK member from Tulsa) were among the 16 who were arrested at the Halliburton protests in Duncan today.
Hopefully they will be willing to share more about the day when they get back in town (they all have been bonded out), but I wanted to go ahead and post this heads up.
Here’s the story from that tells of the arrrests:
NewsOK: 16 arrested in Halliburton protest
NewsOK: Video story about the arrests
I’m very proud to see such a large number of Greens participate in this protest. Such an encouraging thing.
Also the national and international press is starting to pick this story up as are 194 stories on this according to Google news
Also here’s some coverage from Indymedia and activist groups…

How can they say that it was a success, it was a waste of time. All they did was cost the city of Duncan money. Thanks for
spending our local tax dollars you fags!!!
I work for a Halliburton competitor and I support them with utmost respect.
Quit wasting your and other person’s time. They got a 2.5 minute report on TV.
LOSERS!!!!!
Here’s the email I sent Kris Anderson…
“Hi Kris,
I’m curious why you think the Halliburton protesters are “fags.” Could you please elaborate?”
This is probably a waste of time to ask him to engage in intelligent debate instead of using insults and hate speech, but if nothing else allowing him to post his comments does discredit his position.
