nope.
the police did a massive sweep in this park,where normal folks were hanging and had nothing to do with the convention,and just swept everyone up for processing.
I am taking this all from memory,but if I recall,it was all on the pretense of trespassing,which was bullshit.
happened at a DNC convention in 2012 as well,if I recall.(too lazy to google).
but I remember that amy goodman from democracy now was arrested in that st paul sweep.she took it to court and won.
but that was never the intent of the sweep.
the intent is always intimidation.
