Roundup: "Don't F*ck With Our Activists" - Community Responds to Raids
Update 9/27--Latest Submitted Coverage: CCDC Statement Denouncing FBI Raids; 19 Demonstrations Planned Nationwide | Community Solidarity Statement with Raided Activists | Northland Antiwar Coalition Condemns Raids | Labor Beat--Chicago Press Conference Protests FBI Raids (Video) | Chicago Indymedia: FBI Targets Chicago Activists Amid Midwest Sweep; Activists Push Back | Fight Back News: Milwaukee Rallies on Sunday
Over 150 people attended a community meeting at Walker Church Friday night, most on less than six hours notice, to begin to respond to Friday morning's FBI raids and subpoenas to local antiwar and international solidarity organizers. (See video of the meeting at right.) At the church, activists confirmed that five homes and the Anti-War Committee's office were raided.
Organizers also announced two upcoming events: a protest outside the Minneapolis FBI office, 111 Washington Ave. S., at 4:30pm on Monday; and a solidarity committee meeting on Thursday at 7pm, location to be determined. The subpoenas ask activists to appear before a grand jury in Chicago, where a solidarity vigil was held last night as a raid was still ongoing in that city, on or around October 19, reported a Chicago Indymedia post.
Those following international news on Friday noticed an eerie coincidence--or perhaps not. On Thursday, the Colombian military assassinated the #2 leader of the guerrilla group Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia, or FARC. On Friday, President Obama met at the U.N. General Assembly to schmooze with incoming Colombian President Juan Manual Santos, leading to clear suspicion of U.S. involvement in the assassination. FARC is among the resistance groups termed "foreign terrorist organizations" by the U.S. and is listed in the warrant for Mick Kelly's residence. Another bit of interesting timing: just earlier this week, the FBI's Inspector General criticized the FBI for lying to the Justice Department about raids and surveillence of peace groups after 9/11.

The United States is a failed state. Time to break it up.
It is long past time for trying to repair the United States. The United States, the PRC, and the former USSR have proved to the world that large mega-states become oppressive and excel at crushing their citizens. The most progressive things we can do is to dedicate ourselves to the breakup of the United States. Only when we have smaller, autonomous units will we be able to democratically govern ourselves.
And if I could add to that...
An absolutely necessary first step is arming ourselves.
We can easily outgun the FBI.
We can easily outgun the FBI. If only Mick Kelly had been strapped when the raid happened, he would be free now.
since not everybody may get
since not everybody may get the sarcasm that i hope this post is (of course, nobody was arrested at the raids), i guess this would be a good time to reiterate for 1) any not-so-nice uniformed gang members reading and 2) the rest of us, that anyone (including #1) can post to indymedia without being filtered before posting, and their opinions are their own.
as always, actual discussion of illegal activities--you know, "terrorist" activities like talking about tipping over newspaper boxes (as in Erik Oseland's RNC8 "terror" case) or what have you--should never happen online, which makes us all much less likely to take the bait of ridiculous ideas like outgunning the FBI.
It's not like any of them
It's not like any of them aren't failed.

Or else what?
Or else nothing. Or else we shall say F*** again. Oh noez!

Timmy Ramone on Last Story Comments
Fullest apologies but for some reason I had my posts blocked on the last story.
Someone had posted anonymously on the AWC and FRS. Using all sorts of anarchist lingo like screw the authoritarian AWC etc etc.
Timmy Ramone had correctly pointed out the while he has had issues with the AWC that he stood in solidarity with them in this attack.
I want to second that. I have had many disagreements with the AWC and FRS and how they set up their rallies and their political positions. I have done so publically.
So to the anonymous "anarchist" I put out a public challenge. Come out in public, give your name and state your position on abandoning the AWC and FRS.
The reason I say this is that I strongly suspect that our "anarchist" friend in in fact a cop. Or indeed the FBI. Attempting to sow seeds of discord with in and amongst us.
In Ireland we do not use the term cop. The politically directed police forces are called the Special Branch and the FRU.
We do not call them cop. We call them the Filth.
So to the Filth who masquaraded as an anarchist.
make your name public or be exposed.
Filth.
I stand with the AWC and the FRS. The Filth wil not break that solidarity and they will not make us afraid either.
Amen to That!
Amen to that, Brother Michael! However, methinks our friend, the "Filth," has scampered. Which is fine with me. We'll continue to stand in solidarity with the AWC and FRS against the FBI.
Hey, does the "F" in FBI also stand for "Filth"? :)

Filth Be Gone
Timmy.
We are a couple of bottles of Filth Be Gone. Just spray and the Filth goes away.
In all seriousness though, I did this for two very specific reasons. To point out that the Filth will try and break solidarity but they will fail.
Equally important, to show them and other activists that we should NEVER be afraid of them.
Good seeing you at the rally Timmy.
Where Am I ?
I feel like I've gone to sleep a woke up in Nazi Germany, during the Third Reich. The America I once knew; going fast. The problem as I see it, to many of us are still tunned in to the Controled Corporate Media. We really need to get out there and be activists or where history.

If there is one thing you can
If there is one thing you can say about the RNC 8, they are brave and principled people. From day one, they have always said that any movement for their defense must also be about strengthening the movement as a whole. 1z0-053 dumps/000-152 dumps/650-295 dumps/E20-322 dumps/642-661 dumps/350-050 dumps/642-627 dumps/JN0-632 dumps/642-262 dumps/350-029 dumps don't speak for them but from what I've seen, they would never shy away from publicly supporting others under attack even if doing so would help their case. They fully embrace a political as well as legal defense. That's why I am proud to not only work for their defense, but to call them friends.
