Memo from the Institute of Iconography
Department of Manifest Disinformation re:
     Project Proposal and Call for Resistance.
 
It has come to the attention of the bored of directors that some aspects of yesterday's project proposal may potentially invoke the wrath of certain law enforcement agencies. We feel it pertinent to clarify the Institute's official position on such matters. Given that the proposed location of the Global Potlach Liquidation Clearance and Garage Sale will be at the next G8 Summit meeting, many of our affiliates were concerned that the presence of thousands of soldiers and police at the last meeting may cast doubts as to the legality of the Potlach. They requested that we provide instructions for dealing with riot police. The following is the stated position of the Institute's legal experts:
 
The Institute of Iconography does not advocate any attempt to be more absurd or confrontational than corporate goon squad rent-a-cops. We advise our members and associates to read them the riot act and order their officers to disperse peacefully or they will be considered a police state and collectively shunned.
