Eric McDavid - Green Scare prisoner

from the commonplace, 8 May 2009: A public forum with speakers on:
- the G20 in London where the cops battered us into containment pens, battered us when we tried to break out, and then battered us again when they decided they had finished with "containment" and now wanted "dispersal"...
- the recent pre-emptive mass arrests in Nottingham where 114 climate change activists were arrested, searched, questioned and bailed with outrageous conditions before they had done anything to Ratcliffe power station +++ and the policing of dissent in Leeds

from various sources, updated 12 December 2008: Decentralised action day for the militant group trial, December 13th 2008. Get involved with your own actions on the day of decentralised actions for the Militant Group Trial. On September 25th the trial against three activists from the radical left began in the Berlin court.

They are on trial for supposedly attempting an arson attack on Army vehicles on the grounds of MAN, a traditional weapons manufacturer. They are also charged with supposed membership of the clandestine Communist Militant Group (MG). The MG, which has been in existence since 2001, has claimed more than 20 arson attacks on installations of the state and capital and has also engaged in a militancy debate producing theoretical texts.

The three Berliners are thereby charged with attempted serious arson, as well as membership of a “criminal organization” under paragraph §129.  more
