fuck the long beach kids who screwed Sarah over

by anon2 Sunday, May. 26, 2002 at 9:36 PM

with friends like you all who needs cointel pro or cops

it's real fucked up that this poor girl Sarah who was arrested Mayday 2002 in Long Beach was the only one fucked over when these other dumb ass so called revolutionary kids in Long Beach who are walking around free now. She was thrown out there to hang, and she was the only one fucked over while the rest of these so called revolutionaries are walking free because their rich mom or dad bailed them out of jail or they didn't have the guts to actually stand up for what they believe in and pleaded out. fuck you, yeah you!

Sarah the one who had no activist experience, who had no idea what was going to happen at Mayday because the dumb ass SKAA organizers were authoritarian and dicated what they wanted to do and didn't let anyone know, and let others walk into a confrontational police trap, Sarah was a street medic and she is the only one who stood up for what she believed and took this case to trial, and she is the only one that had any guts the rest of these thugs, and that's what I will call them because that's what they are are stupid kids who are running around just annoyed and mad and will never get anywhere and will end up just like their yuppy mom and dad eventually. Your politics are nothing but selfish bull shit, you are doing more damage to the movement than anything else.

Fuck you all for doing this, fuck you all for screwing Sarah over and showing everyone exactly who you really are. You were never there for her, none of you shit heads did a damn thing for her, talk about solidarity none of you came to her court case I didn't see even one of you there, you fucked her over and you let her hang to dry. You talk all this shit about repression and solidarity and it's nothing but shit, none of you fucks in Long Beach did a damn thing ever, you just get people in shit and than take off and don't do anything. You are pathetic and it's a shame that you can even call yourselves anarchist or activists. FUCK YOU ALL, and it's not the cops that are repressing you, it's because you are so damn dumb you beg for the cops to pay attention to you, and now they are.

you are repressing and mind fucking yourselves, but hey that's no big deal as long you get to feel good about yourself by wearing your black block trendy clothes, and chant class war and call yourselves revolutionary or freedom fighters you are all full of shit and you only care about yourselves and the other shitty people that you surround yourselves with.

Sarah and others like her are the true revolutionaries and the ones that will make any actual change, no wonder she stopped hanging out with all you losers and no wonder you all keep losing more and more friends. I will never come down to Long Beach or your sorry excuse of an infoshop again, as a colored man I cannot believe I even thought you all were cool at some point, I can't believe how pathetic you all really are. I am ashamed to have even associated with any of you.

I encourage everyone to write and rally around Sarah im sure these Long Beach fools will jump on the band wagon now, they totally forgot about her and didn't do a damn thing for her ever but Im sure now that people are talking about her these dumb kids will jump on the bandwagon and claim to have always supported her.

FUCK YOU!!!

I mean Mayday 2001

by anon2 Sunday, May. 26, 2002 at 9:43 PM

I meant to type that she was arrested on Mayday 2001 in Long Beach not Mayday 2002

we need to support sarah

by rtf Monday, May. 27, 2002 at 5:50 AM

Sarah was 100% comitted to going to trial and fighting these bogus uptheass charges since day one. She never backed out nor hesitated. When the prosecuter and judge decided to increase the penalty to 3 years maximum after 9-11, she still stayed comitted to going to trial while many others imediatly pleaded out. Mayday 01' was the first time being arrested for many people, including myself. At first tons of people were going to take their cases to trial, but then it turned only into a small handfull of about 4 people. I was one of those people but at the last minute had to plead because of another federal case. Sarah still hung in there and was arrested right there in the court room. Now she is serving a 6 month sentence in LA twin towers jail. For everyone reading this, just remember it could have been YOU, arrested in the court room, and sentenced to 6 months in LA county. Wouldn't YOU want people - especially those who were arrested with you - to have your back? An injury to one is an injury to all. That's the way we need to treat the situation, because THAT IS the situation. Sarah needs our imediate support and she needs it now.

I suggest we setup a benefit show of some kind to raise awareness on this issue, and to help her financially with the 1000$ fine she was given.

Infoshop

The lack of solidarity that was given to Sarah and other activist involved with mayday 2001 is fucked up, but the blame shouldn't be held against all LB people. The Long Beach Infoshop is now ran by a new collective with a new group of people, majority being colored. Hopefully their shit can get together to actually start creating positive change, and support Sarah(as well as Rukus and other political prisoners.) Hopefully we can learn from the past mistakes created in the movement and build on the knowledge we gain.

I wish I could've been aware of the mayday situation before...so that I could've been involved in helping out people like Sarah. I will try to support her and help in raising the fine money. Peace







Class Action Lawsuit

by Legal Advice Monday, May. 27, 2002 at 7:25 PM

What the demonstrators and others caught up in this state repression, espicially those who were prosecuted and aqquited, should get together, find a good attorney or group of attorneys willing to represent them pro-bono and SUE Long Beach class action! This should be a mega-lawsuit that would send the city of Long Beach into bankruptcy. Since MONEY is all that matters to these fools, then THAT'S what we need to go after! Then, maybe, they'll start to respect our rights once they know to do otherwise will cost them BIG-TIME(maybe even result in their complete shut-down).

Either the government represents EVERYONE or it will be replaced.

class action

by cheng Wednesday, May. 29, 2002 at 1:54 AM

there are about 10 people involved in working on a class action lawsuit already.

bullshit

by not falling for it Wednesday, May. 29, 2002 at 2:43 PM

haha yeah right so there are a few people of color that live at the infoshop now, but rampage is still their poor martyr, and Jeff and that other white girl Sheina or Sheila are still there talking their shit

the fact remains that nobody not even ONE of those people was ever there for Sarah. They only care about themselves and their other loser friends who are just like them. Anyone who is different, and that includes Sarah is always excluded and never supported. Im not falling for the fake and phony shit

too bad

by none Wednesday, May. 29, 2002 at 2:45 PM

too bad Sarah does not have the privelege that the rest of you have, and she's not able to be part of the class action lawsuit now that she has been covicted.
