Russell and Barskey hold signs, protesting Big Mike's imprisonment, in front of City Hall, Veteran's Park, and Valley Street jail, in Manchester.

19 Jan, 2010 Big Mike's arraignment. A dozen or so friends attended court to see him, but got the runaround so Mike faced the machine alone. Experienced in the quality of keeper-captive communications we decided to send a message through the superior captive-captive communications network and showed some signs for Mike at the jail. Police and jailers don't like peaceful and laughing people on their territory.
