An article in Thursday's Chronicle, written by Jaxon van Debeken, tells of the arrest of an anti-war protester for planting a Molotov cocktail during an anti-war demonstration. The arrest was based on a surveillance tape.
A San Francisco State student who faces a maximum of 10 years in prison on federal charges of possessing a Molotov cocktail was arrested after police recognized him as a protester they had booked just minutes after the device was planted.
Jacob Lehman, 25, of San Francisco appeared in federal court Wednesday on charges of possessing an explosive device--a Molotov cocktail--found March 21 on Market Street between Third and Fourth Streets, a day after 1,400 protesters were arrested.
Lehman denies the charges and was released on $200,000 bond.
This apparently prompted the folks at the anti-capitalist SF Indymedia site to publish advice on this matter for their followers. After reading this, do you Mom and Pop peaceniks still feel comfortable marching arm in arm with these characters?
