8/20/08 KPFA Police State Terrorism Announced on Black August 8/21/08 Program

On August 20, 2008 at 1 p.m., at KPFA's station in Berkeley, 94.1 FM, a pregnant black woman volunteer was brutally arrested, had her arm broken by a dozen police, put in a black wrap, hog-tied while she screamed bloody murder in a tone we can hear online that sounds like tasers or pepper spray was used and taken to prison for supposedly trespassing and is also charged with resisting arrest! The charges should be dropped; the people who called the police should be fired immediately; KPFA must pay for the medical care of this poor woman and the Local Station Board members who do not support these demands should be defeated in the next election.

This horrifying incident can be heard on the Black August program, at the very beginning, of Flashpoints, on August 21, 2008 at 5 p.m. followed by a 15 minute discussion with various people at
http://www.kpfa.org/archives/index.php?arch=27972

The people who allowed our subscription-paid programs to be cancelled for the 2 Democratic-Republican drinking parties of 8/25-28 and 9/1-4 should also be fired. They are probably the same police agents.

Further, every single member of the elected Local Station Board should be told they must either support these demands regarding BOTH THE POLICE BRUTALITY INCIDENT AND THE CANCELLING OF OUR PROGRAMS FOR THE DEMOCRAT-REPUBLICAN DRINKING PARTIES or be kicked off the LSB. It only costs $25 a year paid to KPFA to vote in KPFA's LSB elections.

KPFA IS CLEARLY BEING RUN BY POLICE AGENTS. There is no other excuse for this brutal police brutality for a woman who was merely on the phone arranging for a ride home and not hurting anyone. THERE IS NO EXCUSE WHATSOEVER FOR THIS TERRIBLE POLICE BRUTALITY no matter what this person may have been doing, and it sounds like she was not doing anything harmful at all.

THERE IS ALSO NO EXCUSE FOR CANCELLING SUBSCRIBER-PAID PROGRAMS FOR THE STINKING ROTTEN DEMOCRAT-REPUBLICAN DRINKING PARTIES.

We had to wait for Flashpoints to make the announcement THE NEXT DAY after the incident of this horrifying police brutality at KPFA. WHY WASN'T THIS TERRIBLE POLICE BRUTALITY ON THE KPFA EVENING NEWS AT 6 P.M. ON AUGUST 20? We, the listeners, and especially the listener-subscribers have a right and need to know what is taking place at our station. CLEARLY, KPFA IS NOW A POLICE STATE.
