Pretty little witch boy

The arsonist who set fire to the Autozone (video below) in Minneapolis has been identified as officer JACOB PEDERSON, a COP and NOT a protestor attending the Justice for George Floyd protests, by his ex wife. Pigs are framing arson on protestors demanding justice for the murder of an innocent Black man by killer cops.

it wasn’t george floyd’s protesters who started reacting violently; it was the cops.

the protest was peaceful until the cops showed up in riot gear, and started using water cannons, followed up by tear gas and rubber bullets. i got videos from friends who were there, of people screaming and running away from the cops shooting the water cannons, rubber bullets and throwing tear gas at them. they were even shooting at the protesters dragging people away to get medical attention.

speaking of medical attention, dispatch refused to provide any medical attention to the protesters. people literally had to drive their bleeding friends to the hospital because they refused to send ambulances.

cops are using non-lethal weapons in a lethal way. they shot rubber bullets into people’s heads and injured them. there’s dozens of photos of protesters with bleeding head wounds from the rubber bullets.

multiple people used police scanners and heard that there were undercover cops pretending to be violent protesters who were throwing rocks and whatnot at the police, with dozens of eyewitness accounts confirming that information.

the person who instigated all the chaos last night (it was a fire at an autozone) with the looting and burning buildings is highly suspected to be an undercover cop pretending to be a protester, because the video of him keeps getting taken down. protesters tried to stop him but couldn’t because he had a hammer and they were scared for their safety.

the cops jammed cell phone towers and cut live streams to interrupt broadcasts and to prevent people from seeing what was really going on and who actually started the violence.

the cops lied about protesters being armed and about throwing rocks and are literally trying to continue the violence happening and yet no one is holding them accountable for that.

and during all this, the cop that murdered george floyd still hasn’t been arrested. he has had more than ten complaints filed against him and was involved in three other civilian shootings in the past. and yet he’s still out free along with his three other buddies involved, probably sitting on his couch while all this chaos is happening.

@geraniumlady​ I’m responding to this publicly just so others can see because i know you’re not the only one who is wondering this. Most of these are gonna be from anarchist websites or written by anarchists because we are the main group who are looking into a creating alternatives to police.

This article is a good article to start with that goes into how communities can deal with crime themselves and talks about other places that have already started managing crime in their communities this way.

Here’s a video about what our societies could do instead of having traditional police and prison systems. Its from the point of view of an anarcho-communist and is one part of a series of videos about how anarchism works and what an anarchist society would look like, but this video is easy to understand without having watched the ones before it in the series and points of this video can be translated onto our current society.

Here’s an article from the anarchist library about crime and police alternatives as well.

And here is a page that leads to a google doc that is an in-progress list of resources on the subject of alternatives to police.

there’s no such thing as “being neutral” or “not wanting to get involved in politics” when it comes to issues like this. this isn’t politics, this is innocent black men and women being brutally murdered by our police and no one is doing anything about it - something that has been going on forever.

america is built on institutionalized racism that is still very much in place today. as a white person we will NEVER know what’s it like to fear for our lives just because of our skin color, we will never experience the racism that black people experience on the daily, we will never feel unsafe because we are white in the way black people do.

white people, step the fuck up and use your platform to raise awareness, show outrage, and to boost the voices of black people. stop staying silent, those who stay silent are adding to the violence and are on the side of the racists.
