David Gilbert, a founding member of Columbia University Students for a Democratic Society and member of the Weather Underground, sits in a maximum-security prison in upper state New York in the Wende Correctional Facility.
He is serving a, 75 years to life, sentence for being a member of the Weather Underground group who along with members of the Black Liberation Army, robbed a Brink's truck on October 20, 1981.
Two Nyack, NY police officers Waverly Brown and Edward O'Grady and Brinks guard Peter Paige were murdered during the robbery.
Prison has apparently not mellowed Gilbert. He has a book out which he wrote in prison, No Surrender: Writings from an Anti-Imperialist Political Prisoner.
At the time of the robbery, Gilbert had a 14 months old boy. The mother of the boy, Kathy Boudin, also took part in the robbery and served a 22 years sentence.
With both Gilbert and Boudin sentenced to long terms, Weather Underground leaders Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn adopted the toddler, Chesa Boudin.
But Chesa's interesting lineage does not start with his radical parents nor with Ayers.

What would anyone expect a city that can’t keep sh*t off the streets to spend money prosecuting public urination?
They plan to focus on prosecuting people for eating sandwiches in public.
Why, they are already sh###ing in the streets
Chesa. Like Che...
Where do they find these people?
Good grief!
Is this going to be like that instant app the light rail yesterday?
People will be able to urinate out a drink, but they will be arrested if they are drinking one in while they wait for a train?
An interesting background for sure, this POS has.
That’s good, but my bladder won’t hold long enough for me to get there ...
The perfect hallmark for the Democrat Party and what it stands for!
Kiss the tourism industry goodbye. Better off visiting Fargo North Dakota.
Is that the video where the dude is eating a chicken sandwich and the cop is holding his backpack?
Yep, that’ll fix it. Can’t be prosecuting public urination or anything.
I’m sure capitalists will be to blame for the stench and disease somehow, given the crowd in charge.
Interesting wood chippers I hear.
That sewer is a rogue state.
"But, but, but ...... the weather's so nice!"
> I’m sure capitalists will be to blame for the stench and disease <
Personally, I’d blame Global Warming. Warm weather helps spread stench and disease. But wait. Global Warming is caused by capitalist factories. So I guess you’re right after all.
Refusing to prosecute public urination has only one certain outcome: more public urination.
I visited San Fran for the first time around 1995 or so I guess.. far as I could tell they didn’t prosecute it back then, whole place stunk of it.
