THERE ARE PEOPLE.....

There are people in the u.s. who are ready to make war on the imperialist pig government, and destroy injustice not just in the belly of beast, but as part of the world Revolution. The RCP is one of those groups. I also believe the Black Riders Liberation Party is one of those organizations, even though the two may have extreme disagreements. I support both of them. This is taken from the BRLP facebook page. I find it inspirational. I'm sure many people hiding behind their computer screens will criticize it easily. Fuck the lazy ass e-critics.

ARMED REVOLUTION IS THE ONLY SOLUTION TO PIG TERRORISM!

THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES

Carl Dix, National Spokesperson for the Revolutionary Communist Party, has been part of the struggle against injustice since the late '60s. Listen to what he has to say.
For Immediate Release - August 19, 2014

Carl Dix, Arrested in Ferguson, Called “Outside Criminal Element,” Says Systematic Police Brutality & Murder is Criminal, Not Peoples' Protest

Carl Dix, Arrested in Ferguson, Called “Outside Criminal Element,” Says Systematic Police Brutality & Murder is Criminal, Not Peoples' Protest
“There are no 'outsiders' in the struggle for justice and liberation,” said Carl Dix on his release from St. Louis County Jail this morning.
“The criminal actions in Ferguson come from the police who brutalize and murder people, not from people who have stood up and refused to accept that subjugation, or from people like myself who came from other cities to support them.”
Dix, of New York City, is a member of the Revolutionary Communist Party, and is the co-founder, with Dr. Cornel West, of the Stop Mass Incarceration Network.
“I came to Ferguson to stand with people who had poured into the streets after the murder of Michael Brown, and were demanding justice and refusing to silently suffer this abuse any longer. We want the cop who shot Michael indicted, Police Chief Jackson fired, and the authorities to stop hiding the information about Michael's murder. Because people defiantly refused to be stopped by curfews, National Guard deployment, and states of emergency, the whole world now knows about the unjust murder of Michael Brown.”
Dix, who says that he was extracted for arrest from a sidewalk crowd he was speaking to, was among 78 people, including media, arrested Monday as police declared protest “unlawful assembly,” and used tear gas, sound cannons, stun grenades, and pointed assault weapons at protesters holding their hands in the air.
Dix is available for interviews in Ferguson.

NEVER ENDING

The government calls the Revolutionary Communist Party and others who want the truth about this system to come out, "outside agitators". Is there any more agitation needed than what the fucking cops do on a daily basis with their intimidation, repression, and murder of the people, especially Black people? If the Revolutionaries come to town with the truth about how the system keeps people down, and what needs to be done, this is a threat to the murderous capitalist/imperialist system, and it's no wonder they want to stop it. Well, fuck the cops, and fuck their system.... 

Statement from The Revolutionary Communist Party, USA On the Arrests of Carl Dix, Travis Morales and Joey Johnson

Get this statement out everywhere through social media and in print.
August 20, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us


On Monday night, August 18, Missouri police singled out and arrested RCP members and supporters Carl Dix, Travis Morales and Joey Johnson, along with 75 other people during the course of that night.  While some of the people defended them, the “peace police” community leaders worked with the police to get them arrested. Joey Johnson was blindsided and punched in the face by St. Louis politician Antonio French. Police Captain Ron Johnson, head of the operation, personally fingered Carl and Joey to get additional, higher charges.  Carl and Travis were held overnight, and then released.  Joey was also released that same day.
Carl Dix being arrested Monday August 19, 2014
Their sole “crime” was attempting to read the RCP’s statement “To the Defiant Ones” to a crowd that had gathered.  The politicians and news mouthpieces justify their arrests and call them agitators.     Well, since when is “agitating”—which means nothing but speaking and bringing out sharply the facts of injustice—since when is it some kind of horrible crime to speak the truth about what this system does to people, and why people should stand up and fight against it?  In fact, we need MORE agitation like this. As the great fighter against slavery Frederick Douglass said, power concedes nothing without a struggle.  Maybe these people think Frederick Douglass was a “criminal”—in any case, they are definitely acting like modern-day overseers!
This then was followed by a well co-ordinated media barrage—and a media blackout.  The barrage was one where almost every mouthpiece on the media attacked “outsiders” and “agitators,” with some specifying “revolutionary communists.”  Every politician and preacher who would agree to denounce “the outsiders” and “plea for peace” was given a platform.  At the same time, despite tremendous efforts to speak directly to the media, and despite their easy availability, no major press outlet has yet let them tell their side.  And let’s be clear: all three of these so-called “outsiders” have decades between them of standing in the forefront of the fight against police murder and repression, each of them having had to stand up to the threat or reality of prison for their political activity, and each of them active right now in building for a month of resistance to this whole agenda in October—with Carl having initiated the call for that month with Cornel West. (For more on the Month of Resistance and how to get involved go to the Call for the Month of Resistance andstopmassincarceration.net)
Meanwhile—there has been NO JUSTICE in the police murder of Michael Brown.  There has been no letup in the police intimidation and terror and brutality against people who DO stand up.  And while these bootlickers talk about “organizing” and “making progress,” in reality they are pacifying people and easing the way for yet another sell-out.  These people who are now declared the “responsible leaders” are working to marginalize the rebellious people whose voices are never heard. All their so-called “organizing” is just about gaining favor with those who really run the show, and getting in on the plunder of this system—and opposing anyone who wants to do away with that system... or who just wants justice in the case and knows that it would already be under the rug if people had not fought.
 Just think of it—going to the lengths of not just slandering people who they know will not be given a platform to respond, of not just informing on people to the very police who have answered people’s demands for justice with brutal repression of their basic rights, of not just trying to pacify people with the same old stuff... but actually fingering people for the pigs and going so far as to carry out a cowardly physical assault on the revolutionaries—only, of course, when they are backed up by the armed force of the state!
The repression of Carl, Travis and Joey is part of a bigger picture.  The powers-that-be say that what is going on is criminal activity.  First off, there is nothing criminal about people defending themselves from outrageous police attack, coming on top of years of oppression and repression.  Second, why should ANYONE believe anything these murdering pigs say?  Ron Johnson is just a figurehead, just someone put there to quell the anger.  In fact, for all his wild claims about “crimes” and “looting,” 75 of the 78 people arrested on Monday night were charged with “failure to disperse.”  What does that tell you?
What all these politicians and tools for the rulers really fear is the fact:  one, that people who have been demonized and cast off and consigned to an early grave or a life in prison are raising their heads and standing up, directing their anger where it needs to go; and two, that the people who are doing this, along with many others, are finding out about the Party and its leader Bob Avakian—the leadership that represents their highest interests and aspirations, and that actually has the strategy to LEAD a struggle to make revolution.
We will not back down.  We will not go away. 
HANDS OFF CARL DIX AND OTHER REVOLUTIONARY FIGHTERS!
STOP THE REPRESSION OF THE BRAVE FIGHTERS IN FERGUSON!

THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS

This is NOT an endorsement of the recent beheading of an amerikkkan journalist, it is just a statement of fact. Fuck it, here goes....

The amerikkkan army invaded Iraq, intending to subdue the local population, steal their natural resources, and be viewed as conquering heroes. But the opposite happened. They tried to make the people submit to them, but were met with fierce resistance instead. By knocking Saddam out of the picture, they unleashed the forces of islamic fundamentalism, who don't happen to be very friendly to decadent amerikkkans. And now that the yanks are bombing the country again, they expect people to bow down. Imperialists do not learn from history, they merely try to update it. While this bombing was taking place, the jihadists holding amerikkkan reporter James Foley hostage wanted money, and for the bombing to stop. Instead, the u.s. government spent millions trying to rescue the reporter, and continued bombing, no doubt killing many civilians in their wake, as usual. And now Foley is dead, and obama has promised to rid Iraq of the evil jihadists. He is a stupid fucking hypocrite, and no less chauvinistic about amerikkka than bush was. And again, you have millions of amerikkkan citizens crying about Foley,and wanting to kill every Arab in the world, but you have no one to blame but your fucking government. And not one tear was shed for the countless civilians the u.s. army has killed .

BACK TO IT

If people were to just roll over and take the killing of yet another young Black man as something to be "worked out" with the murderous police, who are protecting their murderous system, then nothing will get done, and the people will not realize the strength they actually possess. Fuck the police and fuck their system.

Points of Orientation on Righteous Rebellions

August 16, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

People in Ferguson have repeatedly stood up and righteously rebelled. They have refused to back down in the face of dogs, tear gas, guns, and tanks. At a time when the powers counterattack through absolutely irrelevant slanders against Michael Brown and honeyed words from Ron Johnson, this struggle must not die down. 
Two guidelines on going forward:
1) If people do not rebel against such oppression and repression, they can only expect things to get worse and their lives to become more unbearable. When people in positions of power tell you not to protest and rebel, they are part of the problem, not the solution.
2) Any action should be evaluated by what it contributes to the righteous rebellion against injustice. That is the standard. Telling people to stop rebelling does notcontribute to ending such outrages and injustices, it undermines the fight against them.

Hardcore. Passionate, pissed off, pummeling hardcore. A few ripping metallic solos and a few catchy breakdowns keep it interesting. Good thing there’s a lyric sheet, these guys have something worthwhile to say, with songs about Oscar Grant, Trayvon Martin and other victims less known but with equally fucked up stories. With apologies to my Floridian friends, the best song title and concept here is “Annihilate Florida.” Go see these Victoria, B.C. Canadians and pick this up.  –Chad Williams (Self-released)

Protests in Ferguson, Day 5:
Going Up Against Police Martial Law

August 14, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

August 14
From a correspondent in Ferguson, MO
Ferguson, MO is under siege. Even though they don't say it, it is martial law, straight up. The city has been cut off from the rest of the surrounding area. Police vehicles have set up blockades at many intersections using military personnel carriers and riot police. The U.S. government has given military hardware to local police and they are using it against the people to try and intimidate them.
There is a no-fly zone over the city, and drones are being used to enable the authorities to focus on the protesters. Police helicopters have been hovering above the protest, streaming bright lights all over the protest area. There is the feeling of a war zone and the use of war tactics being brought down on the people in this city. But people have not backed down. People have been unable to move in or out of their homes; they have been confronted with dogs, flash grenades, rubber bullets, and tear-gas canisters as they have peacefully protested.
Last night as we all stood our ground against military armored personnel carriers with police aiming M-16s with live ammo at the protesters, lines of cops in riot gear—I thought about the need to stand with the people against the crimes of this system; the possibility of getting shot or killed crossed my mind, and how critical it was for revolutionaries to be on the front lines leading and giving voice to the people. I thought about Katrina—what it would have been like to lead people across the bridge in New Orleans, when police and armed racist vigilantes fired at people who were trying to escape the floodwaters from the hurricane that had devastated the city—and then about the need to put our lives on the line to be on the streets with the people here in Ferguson.
At the moment when the pigs called for dispersal, we linked arms with others from Ferguson as the police marched toward us. People yelled and chanted, “Stand your ground,” “Hands up, don't shoot.” Usually, when the media leave is a clear sign that the pigs are getting ready to attack. This time they didn't leave, and within minutes the flash-bang grenades hit, huge sparks flew across the street, gas canisters flew, sound grenades exploded—and in the dark, the riot police marched toward us. At a certain point people broke into smaller groups and ran into the neighborhood with the riot police shooting more tear gas that was now clouding the whole neighborhood.
As people gathered at corners in the neighborhood, there was a feeling that this was not over; that people have courageously stood up, that this has to stop today, and people refuse to live this way. As we walked toward our car, people said, “See you tomorrow.”

VIVA FERGUSON!!!!!

The cops have again shot down an unarmed teenager, this time in Ferguson, Missouri. Several days of rebellion and protests have followed, and the people have been unwilling to back down, even with the superficial words of fuckface obama trying to calm things down, and new reports coming out about how the youth had "just robbed a convenience store" before he was shot. It's the timing of this that I call into question, and even if it is true, so fucking what? Since when does that mean that a cop can kill someone, who is unarmed, right in the fucking street?! Fuck the police. The people of Ferguson are demanding justice, and in the only way that it can happen....
Ferguson, MO:

No Time to “Calm Down”—Time to Step Up the Struggle

August 15, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

When the police killed Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO—outside St. Louis—on August 9, it could have been just another “justifiable homicide.” It could have been one more time the police murdered a Black man FOR NOTHING and walked away celebrating. It could have been one more time the whole power structure gave murdering police a pat on the back, maybe even a promotion.
But not this time god dammit! People stood up!
People stood up in the face of savage violence and brutality—which is the oppressor’s “bottom line” argument that things have to stay the way they are.
People stood up in the face of spineless “friends” and backstabbers who demanded people calm down, and “find common ground” with the system that killed Michael Brown.
And let’s be real: The ONLY reason the powers-that-be backed off—for now—on the violent terror they brought down on people who took to the streets is that PEOPLE DID NOT BACK DOWN.
Take a lesson.
Then they went and got their President—Obama—to even say people have a right to protest. But let’s not forget, that is ONLY BECAUSE THE PEOPLE DID NOT BACK DOWN.
People who this system sees as less than human have stood up in Ferguson. People around the world heard them. The military-style assault on the people of Ferguson made news around the world. So did the struggle of the people. It was a wake up call, and a call to stand up. People started to think and act differently around what is a world-wide outrage. They came from miles around to Ferguson. There were vigils in more than ninety cities. Thousands are protesting tonight from New York City, Miami, New Orleans… and beyond—with all kinds of people joining in.
The strong stand the people took put the oppressor on the defensive. A light is shining on the brutality people face—for the whole world to see.
But the basic demands have not yet been met, and the whole genocidal agenda is still in effect—an agenda that has no future for millions and millions but prison or an early death.
This is no time to “calm down.” It is time to step up the struggle.
The murdering cop must be named, indicted, and put in prison!
This has to end now.
Fight the power, and transform the people, for revolution!

SHUT THE FUCK UP

The pope seems to have a lot of fucking opinions about everybody else's business, while those fucking pedophile priests still manage to get away with a crime worse than murder. Sure, many have been removed from the priesthood, but what about charging them and putting them in with the general prison population? That would be justice. The money they've given to the victims of these lowlife pieces of shit is pointless. Those lives are ruined. The predators need to be dealt with. As far as "islamic militants" and the state of affairs between the two Koreas, the pope should keep his fucking mouth shut until he cleans up his own house, and does it fucking properly.

People Take to the Streets After Police Kill 18-Year-Old Michael Brown

August 10, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us


“They told me how many times my son was shot. Eight.”
Lesley McSpadden, mother of Michael Brown
Saturday, August 9, 2014. It was the middle of the afternoon and dozens of people saw it happen. Michael Brown and Dorian Johnson were walking home from the store. Johnson told news reporters:
“We wasn’t causing any harm to nobody. We had no weapons on us at all.”
18-year-old Michael Brown was walking down a street with a friend when he was fatally shot 8 times by cops. Photo: Justice for Michael Brown Facebook page.
Johnson says the two were walking in the street when a cop rolled up on them and told them to get out of the street. They kept walking and the officer got out of the car and fired a shot. Johnson said they were scared and started to run away. Then:
“He shot again and once my friend felt that shot he turned around and he put his hands in the air and he started to get down but the officer still approached with his weapon drawn and he fired several more shots.”
Many other witnesses said Brown was unarmed and had his hands up in the air when he was shot and killed.
18-year-old Michael Brown had just graduated from high school and was scheduled to begin classes at Vatterott College on Monday. His grandmother, Desiree Harris, said she had just seen her grandson walking on the street and then minutes later, after hearing a commotion, she went outside and found his body on the ground less than two blocks away. Harris said, “When I got up there, my grandson was lying on the pavement. I asked the police what happened. They didn't tell me nothing.”
The police left Michael Brown’s body on the street for hours. Angry crowds started gathering immediately.
The Ferguson police force called in police assistance from surrounding areas—more than 100 officers from 15 departments responded, including tactical teams in riot gear. Dogs were used against people.
Ferguson is a small suburb just north of St. Louis with a population of about 21,000 people, two-thirds of them African Americans.
One news report said: “Through the afternoon and evening some among the crowds were yelling profanities at police demanding justice. At one point gun shots rang out in the area as investigators gathered evidence. That prompted numerous police canine units to move in and move the crowds back. At least one trash dumpster was set on fire.”
Up to 600 people confronted the police immediately after Michael Brown's murder. His stepfather held a sign that said 'Ferguson police just executed my unarmed son!!!' People continued the protests the next day. Photo: AP
Calls for justice spread quickly through the Internet—Brown’s name trended on Twitter for several hours, along with hash tags such as #Justice for Mike. Several “Justice for Mike” pages popped up on Facebook as well, with one page amassing several hundred “likes” per hour as of Sunday afternoon. Another Facebook attracted nearly 4,000 likes.
On Sunday morning, protesters outside the Ferguson Police Department's headquarters raised their hands in the air and chanted, "Don't shoot." Crowds of hundreds of people marched through the streets that morning and afternoon. Michael Brown's stepfather, Louis Head, held a sign that read: “Ferguson police just executed my unarmed son!!!”
*****
Another stolen life. Another young Black man cut down in cold blood by the police. Another outrage by this system that has no future for millions of Black youth, except prison, unemployment, poverty, police brutality, and murder.

HARPER DOES NOT SPEAK FOR ME

Despit his being "our" democratically elected fuckface, asshole harper does not speak for me, and millions of others feel the same way. Fuck him and his arrogant stance on Palestine and israel. Read this....
  FROM THE COMING ISSUE OF THE PARTISAN
Since the Nakba (the “Day of the Catastrophe”) in 1948, the Palestinian people have been the target of violent colonial policy—a policy that never stopped, despite various condemnations from the UN. Settlers stole crops and destroyed olive plantations; millions were expelled from their land and were forced to take refuge in neighbouring countries in conditions of misery, with the help of Arab countries more concerned about the health of their monarchy (Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Jordan) or their military regimes (Egypt, Turkey, Syria) than the life of the Palestinian people.
The Zionist racist and colonial policy that led to the creation of the State of Israel on “a land without a people for a people without a land” was supported by imperialist powers such as France and Britain, and eventually the United States, regardless of the type of party in power in those countries. Israel is the foremost country to benefit from the U.S. financial and military aid, receiving more than even Afghanistan and Egypt. At the height of the current Israeli aggression, the United States agreed to Israel’s request to refloat its stock of weapons at the cost of a billion dollars. Each year, three billion dollars of public funds are allocated for the Israeli army to buy U.S. weapons, improve their equipment and then experiment with them on the Palestinian people.
Some of the most recent weapon innovations include shells filled with darts and the stink bombs sprayed upon people attending demonstrations in East Jerusalem in solidarity with Gaza. Canada is part of this weapons manufacturing, along with the Anglo-Danish security company G4S that produces the motion detectors used along the apartheid wall and checkpoints.
The Israeli terrorist army has been bombing and assaulting Gaza since July 8, violating Palestinian sovereignty by occupying and destroying its territory and inhabitants. Not satisfied with merely stifling this densely populated land by a blockade that prevents free circulation of people, as well as preventing basic subsistence activities such as fishing and agriculture, the apartheid regime decided to raise the terror up a notch. Nearly 2,000 people have been killed and 10,000 injured, the entire Palestinian population a target without any possibility of finding shelter as the so-called “only island of democracy and civilization” in the Middle East barbarically bombarded schools, hospitals and even UN shelters.
Parroted by Stephen Harper, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims that Israel only wants to defend itself against rocket attacks from the Palestinian resistance and that “Hamas terrorists” are responsible for Israeli aggression. The real objective, however, is to liquidate any movement that could hinder the continuation of the Zionist colonial appropriation. In this respect, it is not Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah that could stop this process, given its grovelling and collaboration with Israel amongst the crushing protests in the West Bank.
After the kidnapping of three young Israelis in late June and the murder of a young Palestinian who was later burned alive, Israeli police conducted hundreds of raids and arrests of people suspected of being part of the resistance—whether Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) or Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP). Since Hamas won the last elections held in Gaza, the entire people there are now the target of criminal and cowardly Israeli aggression.
Where there is oppression, however, there is resistance. According to the few independent journalists who went to Gaza, if the people there do not necessarily endorse the whole obscurantist ideology of Hamas, they certainly know that this is not what is currently at stake. The people support the resistance and are ready to endure terrible suffering rather than adhering to “peace negotiations” that have proved to be nothing but a series of betrayals since the 1990s. Many of these people think that the only people who are defending them in front of the occupants are Hamas fighters; in this sense, they support their demands before agreeing to a cease-fire. In fact, nearly 100 Israeli soldiers were killed and more than 400 injured since the beginning of the ground invasion of Gaza. For those who defend the national liberation struggle of the Palestinian masses—and in contrast to the pacifist junk of the NDP and Québec Solidaire that both condemned the “violence of both sides” while calling for a ceasefire—siding with the Palestinian resistance in Gaza is necessary.
Wishful thinking won’t stop the terrorist apartheid regime of Israel: it needs a strong solidarity movement based on proletarian internationalism. In this sense, in addition to the Palestinian resistance, we celebrate the rare but courageous people who refused to serve in the Israeli army and have been jailed, and also those who are vigorously protesting in Israeli cities under the threat of increasingly violent, ultranationalist Zionism that has become stronger in this climate of military madness.
We also commend the numerous protests happening throughout the world, especially in Arab countries and in the “socialist” France, where pro-Palestinian demonstrations were banned in Paris while those supporting Israel took place without any problem. In Canada, we call proletarian and progressive people to continue to take part in the various demos and other actions in support of Boycott-Divestment-Sanctions and the Palestinian resistance, while also recognizing the need to organize for socialist revolution so that Harper, Trudeau and Mulcair will never again speak on our behalf at the international level.

From Gaza to Ramallah, Intifada, Intifada!
