If you haven't heard Andre 3000 is going to play in a movie titled "BATTLE in SEATTLE" about the WTO protest in 1999, a peaceful protest turned into a riot, people broke into stores all throughout downtown. For the whole story follow the link. http://www.mtv.com/movies/news/articles/1594488/story.jhtml I remember that day well, I got two Cell Phones from Radio Shack that day (lol). Anyway what do ya'll think this will do for the Northwest?

The looters were some local cats who just happened to be down there and 'effed iShhh up b/c they could, after all the confusion started.

The Anarchists pushed dumpsters right up to the police line and lit them on fire eggin' them on.

Now Paul Schell and the Police respond way over the top? Of course no doubt, they're cops.

^^^^, Good looking for more info. I hope it's actually done well. Ya'll gotta really think about it, during the promotional campaign for the movie alot of eyes are going to be on Seattle just for the f*ck of it. People gonna google Seattle this Seattle that, we have to find away to make this sh*t really benefit us (The Whole Northwest) we need to do a compilation called SEATTLE RIOT or some sh*t like that. What ya'll think?
