Justin Barker stands at a preliminary hearing on battery and resisting arrest charges for interfering with a Fox affiliate's broadcast on Halloween. During KTVU's coverage of Halloween, Barker jumped in front of the camera and said "Fox News is bullsh*t, Fox News sucks" before the camera turned away. The video (which KTVU has pulled from YouTube) shows that Barker did not touch reporter Amber Lee, so the charge of battery is rather ridiculous. Apparently, the police see it as their job to protect the quality of TV news broadcasts. It's all very strange and the blogosphere is abuzz at sfbg.com, DemocraticUnderground.com, and sfist.com.

This is the drawing of the week for December 3-10, 2006.

One way to get "interactive" with this website is by sending in your interpretation or comments about any of the artwork. I would love to put these comments up online.

I paint pictures like this hoping that my subconscious inserts some meaning into them. Did it work? Does this mean something to you?

Outside the Staples Center in Los Angeles, while delegates inside at the Democratic National Convention worked to nominate Al Gore for president, two teens from the Anarchist Black Bloc addressed a crowd of thousands of protesters. "We are in solidarity with those people from around the world who have been killed by US imperialism and with all the people in America who don't vote."

I drew this picture at the San Francisco May Day celebration in 2000. He was part of a whole corps of black clad drummers who really kept the pep in the rally.
