'Arrest Gov. Snyder' protesters chant outside his Ann Arbor condo





ANN ARBOR, MI – More than 100 people stood Monday outside Gov. Rick Snyder's downtown Ann Arbor condo calling for his arrest for his handling of the Flint water crisis.

"Arrest Governor Snyder! Make him drink the water!" they chanted as snow swirled and the windchill fell below zero.

Michigan Rising hosted the march and protest Jan. 18. Protesters started outside the University of Michigan Rackham Building on East Washington and headed west to Main Street and Snyder's condo above the Four Directions retail shop, 211 S. Main St.



They marched around the block on Main Street from Liberty Street to Washington Street, chanting and cheering when cars honked in support. ..............(more)

I hope they run him out of the state in shame, personally.

I went to Bush's ranch and protested with Cindy Sheehan.

Most fun I ever had.

This one should be great too.

I recommend it for anyone who wants to play a part in "liberty and justice for all". (Flint victims justice)

Deny thousands health care.

Make their lives living hell.

Just like they want ours if we ever get sick.

Switching the water was a horrendous idea but to allow people to continue drinking water known to be unfit is unbelievable!

Then to go (6 days?) without supplying water to people!

I am blown away that this guy has gotten away with so much shenanigans during his reign'
