Almost got violent for a few minutes there, cops tried to get rid of the press

The tweet mentioned Snowden, they're talking about Surveillance now and asking for answers because Homeland Security has been working closely with their mayors.
That's all I know. Just tuned in.

Shouts of "Back to the hotel,... the whole point is to let the mayors know we're here, not have a confrontation with the police".
It seems the consensus is not to return to the hotel right now.
Police line has been established.
