A footnote to: <http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/~cottrell/ope/archive/0804/0260.html>: two of the members of this group have been arrested by the NYPD. Note the video response "Final Outlaw Hip Hop Forever". In solidarity, Jerry <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJ-_1b6AO6w&feature=email Early this Wednesday (6/18/08) Rodstarz and G1 of the group REBEL DIAZ were up in Bronx on Southern Blvd in Hunts Point, when they noticed the police were harassing a street vendor who was selling fruit. The two went over to witness the cops in action and when they saw the police being abusive they pulled out a cell phone to video tape the incident and asked for the officers badge numbers. Subsequently they were beaten, detained and taken to 41st Precint in the Bronx under the direction of Captain McHugh. Rodstarz and G1 will be going to criminal court Thursday (6/19/08) and are being charged with obstruction of justice and assault.
