OCCUPIERS, THE STATE DOESN'T LIKE YOU!!


           Occupiers, the state doesn't like you, I suppose that is a compliment. As time goes on they will rack up the brutality against you, already there have been brutal repression in Oakland and now Denver. They will tolerate you and try to discredit you, but if there is a hint that you are a growing threat to their power, they will move in against you with all the force they deem necessary. Don't allow your movement to stagnate, think of new strategies to draw in more people, to broaden your attack on the system that is responsible for all that stinks in our society.

BECAUSE OF SOLIDARITY - IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.

       
         The eviction of the Occupy Wall St. movement in New York didn't happen, thanks to solidarity. The Occupy Wall St. movement called on support and thousands turned up and the billionaire Bloomberg gang postponed the eviction plans, well done. United the people cannot be governed, solidarity is the key to success when faced with authority, always remember, we are governed by consent, we can always withdraw that consent. Below is a letter from CodePink.



This morning at dawn I gathered with thousands of friends and allies in an emergency action to defend the home and heart of Occupy Wall Street. Just as we have organized against illegal foreclosure of our neighbors, we stood shoulder to shoulder with unions, city workers, and countless community members to prevent Mayor Bloomberg's shameful attempt to evict us from the park under the guise of "sanitation"!
At 7 am, to raucous celebration, the people's microphone announced that the owners of the park had postponed the sanitation plan.
SOLIDARITY.

Thank you for helping make this beautiful victory possible!
While we celebrate how the movement is gaining momentum, we must not disregard the brutality of the Boston and Denver police who descended upon peaceful protesters in riot gear and evicted them in the middle of the night. Unfortunately, Boston and Denver did not have as many people protesting their evictions as we did.



Tomorrow people will be rising up in over 950 cities in 82 countries for a historic global day of action and we need you to join us in the streets to send a clear message that you are fed up with the greed and corruption of the 1%. Join
our Anti-War March in New York or find an event in your city.
Onward for peace and justice,
Melanie, CODEPINK NYC Coordinator and OWS Organizer
P.S. Read Melanie's reflections from Occupy Wall Street.
