June 24th-27th the evil scientists and greedy corporate assholes will be meeting in San Diego for the Bio Conference. On june 24th-27th the anarchists will be coming to San Diego to stop this meeting. On june 24th-27th Bio will wish they never came to SoCal. The Southern Kalifornia Anarchist Alliance is putting out a call for all anti-authoritarians to form up the Earth Liberation Bloc. Although the SoCal area has suffered a hard blow by the authorities, we must not give up. Increase the pressure! We will not stand for the rape of our earth! We suggest (not just the ELB, but everyone in general) that you bring lots of protection equipment. This site has a lot of info on such things. As you saw in Long Beach things can get rough.

We STRONGLY suggest people bring shields.

If Bio technology is not stopped it could fuck up our ecosystem forever!\"\r\n\r\nThis has already happened. A large percentage of corn products which are supposed to have non-Frankenfood corn are contaminated with it, due to the fact that farmers often grow both sorts of corn -- natural and genetically engineered -- on one farm, and Frankenfood corn pollen can drift from one farm and infect a farm with real corn and turn it in to cancerous deadly Frankenfood, too.\r\n\r\nrGBH has been banned in all industrialized countries except the U.S. because tests have proved it causes cancer. But since these corporations are based in the U.S., they make large contributions to republikkkans and demokkkrats to get their cancerous chemicals labeled as food and in to the stuff we consume.\r\n\r\nMy only hope is that if we don't stop it, that the human race dies off SOON, before all the rest of the life we share this planet with are murdered too by greedy corporate CEOs who think they can control the world. This is a struggle for life on earth now. Either we put an end to the corporate policies of profiteering scum, or we are all destined to die.\r\n","author":"desperation","parent_id":6873,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2001-05-20 15:05:07","modified":"2001-05-20 15:30:27","fileurl":""},{"id":6914,"heading":"skaa bores the fuck out of me","article":"hey skaa...\r\n\r\ni'm getting sick of seeing you guys around going on and on about how revolutionary you are, but not\r\n accomplishing shit. when was the last time you did anything that had any effect besides getting yourselves and other people arrested? i always see you doing things that i guess you think are fun, but are totally pointless. trying to tear down that little fence in san diego, getting beat up and arrested in long beach, etc... \r\n\r\n \"who's sexy?\" \"black bloc!\" why the fuck are so many kids in the black bloc only down for the \"sexy\" part of the movement? sure, antagonizing police makes you feel cool and revolutionary, but the revolution will not happen without those of us who are doing community organizing, education, etc. i'm not condemning black bloc (i'm a black bloc-er who has been in blocs with you)... i'm just criticizing those in the bloc who don't do anything except for when it comes time to put on a bandana and get arrested. \r\n\r\nconsider this a challenge. \r\n\r\n you're going to san diego for the bio conference. i can tell you right now that 15 white guys and a few tokenwomen and people of colour are not going to be able to shut it down. you'll get your asses kicked and hauled off to jail faster than you can say \"we're so revolutionary!\" so here's the challenge: \r\n\r\ni dare you to go down to san diego a bit early. figure out what's going on, where the various parts of the conference will be taking place, scout them out, and come up with something creative to do. plan what you're going to do before you do it for once. san diego is full of things that you could do that would be much more tactically effective than parading around in your sexy black clothes looking for something to smash. \r\n\r\n i double dare you, boys. get over yourselves and your macho \"i just wanna break something\" bullshit. you bore me.
