Capitalism--not People's Park--killed Cody's Books (Part 1)
Since the announcement that the original Cody's Books in Berkeley is going out of business, local pundits, politicians, capitalists, and scissorbills have created a shit-storm. As happens so many times when influential businesses close, the capitalist class and its enablers have predictably placed the blame for this tragedy upon the shoulders of the usual suspects: the homeless, young punks, holdovers from the 1960s counterculture, and the city of Berkeley itself. As usual, the real truth goe...

the flyer handed out at today's S.C.F. solidarity action
Here are PDF files and the text of a leaflet that was handed out during this morning's brief blockade of a Santa Cruz intersection. We had little time to throw it together and it's far from ideal, but perhaps the PDF file will be useful for people to print and distribute at simliar actions in their areas....

True Nature of Obscenity
We are daily surrounded by capitalist obscenities such as poverty, war, injustice and inequality. Insult is added to injury when bourgeois spokespersons such as Billy Graham blame God and human beings. It is enough to make a person swear....

Call To Attack SF EEOC Offices and Fed Facilities, Discriminatory Pigs Deserve Attack
The EEOC San Francisco is a discriminatory bunch of fascist pigs. Their Italian judge in 2001 would not even hear my case, a disabled veteran fired for his disablities, for not dropping an EEOC case, that was not heard. I applaud anyone who attacks the EEOC and all federal facilities of the EEOC and the treasury and their SS police Stations. Support Hamas, Hezbollah, Zapatistas. And if the regime calls you a redneck or nigger, cut his throat right then and take his wallet or purse and veh...
