\r\nPOLICE TERROR, CRIMINALIZATION, AND REPRESSION OF OUR COMMUNITIES MUST\r\nSTOP NOW!<\/b>
\r\nWe've tried marching, protesting, lobbying, talking to the ministers, city\r\ncouncils, and congress until we were blue in the face. Police terror has not\r\ngone away. The only way we can effectively stand up to the continuous\r\nbrutality, racism, murder and repression of our lives by this system is to\r\nestablish a revolutionary form of self defense within the community. We must\r\ntrain, and become active in the strategy of self defense as we cannot rely\r\non today's current system to protect us from it's own brutality, murder and\r\ncorruption. Our so-called \"leaders\" and \"representatives\" keep talking about\r\nfighting the war on \"terrorism\", when our communities, particularly those of\r\ncolor, are countless victims of police terror every single day.\r\n<\/p>
\r\nThe R.A.C.U.N Community Defense Program seeks to organize self-defense units\r\n(such as Cop Watch and Zone Defense Units) within our neighborhoods to put\r\nan end to the ongoing brutality, harassment, criminalization, murder, and\r\nrepression of our communities.\r\nAs the anti-war movement continues to grow in opposition to war on Iraq, we\r\nmust not forget to address the war that is being waged right here on our\r\nvery streets by this unjust system. Police terror has been inflicted on our\r\ncommunities too long. These are our communities, and we are going to take\r\nthem back!\r\n<\/p>
\r\nJoin us in forming an organized community defense program!\r\n<\/p>
