Roadblock at Monument Gate

by Shunka (shunka_2002 [at] yahoo.com)
The sight of halted capitalism...how sweet it is...come to Humboldt NOW to get involved in this final push to get Charles Hurwitz and his Maxxam Corp. out of our home, Humboldt County. Come one, come all!!!

This truck was stopped by merely sitting in front of the gate...the purpose was to converse with the workers, not to get arrested, so the truck was let by after a few minutes of dialogue...this was before the stay order, and before the wholesale slaughter of the Mattole began, so the atmosphere was much different then.
Now, people are locking down left and right, because not only did Maxxam/PL begin a full-scale onslaught on the Mattole, they have also been ignoring a direct court order to halt operations for a few weeks, at least until the missing documents can be recovered(did the dog eat their homework?).
We would like to invite you all to come to Humboldt County to do some direct action for the last of the last of the Old Growth forests left on the planet.
We could also always use donations through the mail, especially cameras(video and still), cell phones, warm clothes, food, etc.
Please contact us to find out how you can help, and, again, come to Humboldt County...we'll be looking forward to seeing you!
