Now that the governing there has decided to slaughter Tookie Williams, it is time for the people to decide what reaction is appropriate. This barbaric act will no doubt be met by strong protests, and even riots, in some portions of the state. This is no time for business a usual. We must commit ourselves to confronting this evil man who has been the worst governor in the history of the state. Confrontations should be up close, physical, and unremitting. All acts of civil disobedience should be considered, and as the governor has no respect for nonviolence, we should not feel bound by any restrictions on our actions.
Of course it may be that the governor gets shot down in some sort of drive-by revenge act, but while he's still alive and breathing we must not give him a moment's peace. We should all sign on to the new recall petition and get this guy out of office as soon as we can.
At the same time, we should organize acts of civil disobedience against Schwarzenegger's Gestapo force, targeting all institutions of so-called justice demonstrations and a refusal to allow them to conduct business as usual.
The time for politics is over, it is time that we organize a true resistance to the fascist forces that occupy both are national and state government. Many of these activities will be illegal under the draconian PATRIOT act but that act should be defied whenever possible. If we can't force the government to arrest and prosecute thousands of people it will slow down their campaign of death as sponsored by the state.
