He has sold albums by the million and was the idol of the 1960s protest movement. But yesterday Bob Dylan discovered what it's like to be just a face in the crowd. Police were called in a quiet seaside town after he was spotted freewheelin' down the street and apparently acting suspiciously. A 22-year-old female officer demanded to see his identification papers.
He assumed she would at least recognise the name if not the face. But she ordered him into the back of her car and took him to his hotel to check his story. Then she radioed her older colleagues at the police station to ask if anyone knew who Bob Dylan was.

JESUS BELIEVES IN EVOLUTION
"The Gods Are Real,
They Are Violent Aliens!
Wherefore,
Intelligent species probably evolved long before us, therefore,
They may have journeyed here and interfered with the development of life on earth, as science can deduce from patterns of rapid evolution, fossilized abductions, and hybrid species, therefore,
The gods of world religions, may be these aliens, therefore,
They give hidden prophecies about themselves, and secretly influence world events, and they pollute each others revelations with forgeries such as Genesis 1, therefore,
There might never be an Almighty God, as even the holy scriptures attest, therefore,
There is war among these alien gods, according to the law of Survival of the Fittest, therefore,
The alien gods compete for the genetic resources of earth, therefore,
The alien gods have haphazardly and imperfectly influenced the evolution of humanity and other creatures, as Genesis and the lost Biblical book of Enoch attest, therefore,
Because this cosmos is so filled with alien warfare, barbaric cruelties, forgeries, and genetic perversion, the Christian God has revealed to us that this cosmos is a failure, therefore,
Jesus Christ has endeavored to challenge the system, therefore,
Let it hereby be resolved the Jesus believes in evolution, and he hates it."

MEANWHILE ANARCHISTS FIGHT ANARCHISTS
“Don’t try to fight us, we are not pacifists, we will defend ourselves!”
[a couple of hours of moving bags, being forcibly moved, blockaded, physically and verbally attacked, and yes defending ourselves]
one apocista was pushed down stairs
one was pulled out of the room
one was picked up and taken out of the room
a female bodied persyn was almost punched in the face by a white male when 2 others pulled them back
female bodied persyn grabbed by a tall white man while others yelled get her
a mother of color came in to defend us and pull a poc organizer off one of us
poc organizers forcibly closing door on us, crushing our bodies and heads.
One grabbed a big board that was used to push us out the door.
After quite a bit of time and effort used by folks to get us out of that space, we remained standing.
The cops had approached, a call was made to one of us upstairs to inform us that there was a policeman outside and they were being talked to by a police liaison and the situation was under control. We looked around to see other people of color and a medium sized group of mostly cis white males that were left. While at this point mostly engaging in discussion with other POC and POC organizers some people convinced the remaining stubborn white people to leave, after telling the last white persyn there that they were not welcome in this space, the doors were locked and caucusing began.
After 20 minutes or so, most everyone had expressed their opinion, people were emotional, tired and the discussion ended. We removed ourselves from the space. One APOCista involved in the eviction conferred with a medic to try to regain normal breathing due to an asthma attack that had been taking place over the last 3 hours of the eviction. We all exited, we were greeted by friends, allies, and others that had helped us by participating in the action.
We said our goodbyes, and departed towards a locals house to debrief an discuss the events that had just taken place.
