Berkeley Bank of America Paintbombed and Vandalized

the oil that spilled into the san francisco bay was black. we are the black army.

last night we paintbombed and vandalized a bank of america in berkeley. the bank is on shattuck avenue near the berkeley/albany border. the atms and the walls of the entrance were covered with paint and a message was left on one of the walls facing the street: THIS BANK KILLS MOUNTAINS (A).

bank of america invests in companies which, in order to extract coal from the planet, destroy entire mountains and then dump their remains into the valleys below. this practice, known as mountain top removal, destroys hundreds of ecosystems, rivers and mountains which took thousands of years to form.

and yet bank of america fully finances documentaries like 'planet earth', a spectacle designed to make humans feel sad about the rape and devastation of the planet while simultaneosly rendering them completely passive. a screen cannot replace reality. an electronic polar bear is not a polar bear. bank of america funded this documentary in an attempt to buy a 'green' image. the only reason it funded such an undertaking was to trick the population into thinking they gave a shit about the planet. let us assure you, they do not.

bank of america invests in many other things as well, things which we advise you to research. the black army does not wish to do all the work you should be doing.

many other corporations invest in many other things. for example, VW and mcdonalds are investors in the 2008 olympic games...

the oil that flooded the bay was not brought here by us. it was brought here by them. we are merely giving it back to them in a million different ways. the black army has no members. if you wish to join the black army, feel free.

we would like to wish everyone in san francisco godspeed today.
