(Editor's Note: Occupy Redwood City sent to Patch this list of a dozen resolutions adopted by the group for the coming year. We are re-printing their note in its entirety.) 12 Resolutions for 2012 As 2011 draws to a close and we all reflect on the year past and look forward to what lies ahead, the idea of “resolutions” becomes prominent in our minds for a short time. Some of the most common things people often resolve to do when the new year comes is to shed a few pounds, take some more time for ourselves, or make an effort to give back to our community in some way. As participants in the Occupy movement right here in Redwood City, we want to urge our friends and neighbors to consider the following resolutions as ways to foster your personal well-being, your community’s well-being, and by extension the well-being of our nation and the planet.

Rosa Luxembourg famously said that those who do not move cannot feel their chains. This morning in Suffolk county court, the ACLU of Massachusetts and our client moved. And we felt our chains. I had gone to court to listen to our legal team argue a case to protect the First Amendment rights of our client, Twitter user @p0isAn0n, aka Guido Fawkes. That user, who wishes to remain anonymous throughout the proceedings, was the target of a Suffolk County Assistant District Attorney’s administrative subpoena to Twitter, dated December 14, 2011. As we wrote last week , the subpoena asked Twitter to hand over @p0isAn0n’s subscriber information, including our client’s IP address, which can be used to help track down someone’s physical residence.
WTF? (What the Fawkes?)
Massachusetts authorities apparently thought that asking nicely would suffice to keep secret their subpoena for information on a Twitter user involved with Occupy Wall Street. They thought wrong. So when the Suffolk County District Attorney's office sent its request to Twitter, its subpoena ended up in the inbox of the DA's target , following a decision by Twitter to share it as part of its privacy policy. The user in question goes by the handle @p0isAn0N, who last week posted the document in full on Scribd.

Talking-point politics, taken for political discourse is delusion. It's akin to the cunning nature of chatter in the mind of a neurotic. It masquerades itself as thinking. I will not offer the reader a well-intentioned flag to die under.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu has waded into an ecclesiastical row over a New York church's refusal to allow protesters from Occupy Wall Street to camp on a vacant lot it owns. The South African activist and retired church leader urged Trinity Church to heed the pleas of demonstrators to allow the camp and, failing that, at least to stop any violence or arrests at the site during a day of action this Saturday to mark its three month anniversary. Tutu, the latest in a growing number of church leaders to align themselves with Occupy called the movement a "voice for the world." A wave of evictions that has cleared encampments from cities and campuses across the United States has galvanised a clergy of different faiths to open their doors, and sometimes their homes, to protesters.
