Communities United Against Police Brutality: All Hands On Deck For RNC Actions!

ALL HANDS ON DECK FOR RNC ACTIONS!
During the Republican Convention, CUAPB will play a number of important roles. Along with copwatch as noted above, we'll be involved in jail medical support, jail exit support, documentation of cases through our hotline, court watch/court support, and even assisting homeless people being swept aside in both downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul. It will take a lot of hands and we really need your help. You can plug in by coming to one of the copwatch trainings listed above or coming to our volunteer meeting on Saturday, August 23 at 1:30 p.m. at Walker Church. If you can't make it to the trainings or meeting, please email us back with your contact phone number and how you'd like to be involved.

First event on the list will be the Critical Mass on August 29th. This will be the one year anniversary of the attack on Critical Mass that resulted in many injuries and 19 arrests. It will also be a kind of kick off event for protests against the RNC. As such, we think the MPD may have "special plans" for this event and we need all copwatchers out with us that day.

"Less-Lethal Weapons and Police Tactics" Workshop

08/27/2008 12:00
08/27/2008 15:00

Modern law enforcement tactics increasingly emphasize the use of “less-lethal”
weapons over the direct application of lethal force. Among the most commonly
deployed are incapacitating tools such as pepper spray, tasers, and batons. While
often promoted as being virtually harmless, these weapons can actually be quite
dangerous but with proper knowledge and preparation many of their effects can be
controlled or avoided entirely.

This workshop includes detailed information on all known "less-lethal" weapons,
