Re: Sunday Aug. 7th: Help Turn the Cameras Around

"Beaten to Death" - ok. So, out of the thousands of people that get processed through central booking in one day, the police fuck up and "beat to death' one person. And now its an epidemic?

So you say end the war on drugs. How do you go about doing that? And yeah it's lame that weed is illegal, but if there is a drug dealer selling crack, or cocain, or heroin, or a drug that does nothing BUT destory communities - shit, I am not going to cry if he gets arrested, gets roughed up a bit. He is the asshole that wants to make a fast buck and he is willing to destroy his community in the process.

Since when did we start feeling sympathetic to murderers, drug dealers, and people willing to stab someone and rob them for $5?

Yes, I agree that it is a social construct, that there is racism, that people turn down this path because of the lack fo opportunities. But damn man, it isnt the only reason. There has to be accountability. Maybe instead of blaming everything around someone, how about blame that person.

Being an anarchist, living within an anarchist society means having respect for others around you, to each her own, cooperation, caring about the community. Cause that is about the only thing that could make it work. So I look at assholes that go around robbing people, mugging people, dealing drugs, killing poeple and say..if I were living in an anarchistic society and these people were acting this way I would hope my community would do something to address them. Do we baby them? Do we blame the society and say "oh, he didnt mean to beat that guys head in with a crowbar to steal his car. It is just because of our racist system." Fuck man. Get real.
