Grand Jury Resistance

donttalk

Using grand juries to repress movements including radical ecological movements is not new.  In fact, prosecutors have been using this tactic against animal rights activists since the early 1990s.  Nearly two decades after he was incarcerated for grand jury resistance, animal rights activist and former animal liberation prisoner Jonathan Paul comments on the grand jury process as a tool of state repression.  Below is a statement on grand jury resistance that the Earth First! Prisoner Support Project is a signatory of, and which is also available as a brochure.

United States Government Submits Sentencing Brief for Rebecca Rubin (Operation Backfire)

r-rubin-undated-photo

Today, the United States government submitted its sentencing brief in regards to “Operation Backfire” defendant Rebecca Rubin. Given that Rubin entered a non-cooperating plea agreement, the state is asking for a sentence of 90 months, seven and a half years. For actions taken on behalf of the Earth and its human and non-human inhabitants, we in NYC ABC find this disgusting. Rebecca should be free, back with her family and loved ones!

Rebecca Rubin plead guilty to taking part in Earth Liberation Front actions, including actions taken against Bio-Devices in California; U.S. Forest Products in Oregon; and the Vail Ski Resort in Colorado. She also participated in the liberation of horses and the arson of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Wild Horse Facilities in Litchfield, California and Burns, Oregon.

Rubin is scheduled to appear in court for sentencing on Monday, January 27th. If you are in or near Portland, Oregon, please consider showing your support.

The complete sentencing brief can be viewed here.

Una proposta critica individuale per un attacco offensivo diffuso

“Le nostre vite sono in gioco e non faremo a meno di ogni arma che possiamo usare come nostra” Anonimo

Riguardo alla breve storia del Earth Liberation Front (ELF), un’organizzazione che ha portato molta ispirazione nel contesto nordmaericano e catturato una significativa attenzione dei media, vorrei presentare qualche considerazione al fine di criticare, chiarire e sottolineare i modi con cui comprendere l’ELF da un punto di vista metodologico piuttosto che ideologico. Alla fine di questo testo, viene tracciata una proposta per gli anarchici al fine di sviluppare le loro azioni separatamente in cellule, gruppi o altre strutture informali che essi vedono attuabili e che siano allineate o no con la “linee guida ELF”.

1. NI UN SOLO PRISIONERO

 

Una noche sentados alrededor del fuego, algunos de nosotros, guerreros del Frente de Liberación Animal, decidimos que era el momento de decir unas cuantas palabras acerca de nuestras acciones, ya que continuamente éramos etiquetados por aquellos fuera de nuestro círculo como cualquier cosa excepto lo que éramos: ¿terroristas, extre- mistas, fanáticos, doctores, abogados? “Animal Right Activists” (Activistas por la Liberación Animal).
