Mumia Abu-Jamal was framed and sentenced to death in 1981 for the murder of Officer Faulkner in Philadelphia. In 2011 the prosecution announced they would not seek to reinstate the overturned death penalty, but Mumia continues to sit in prison for a murder he did not do. William Singletary, at great personal cost, helped reveal the truth of Mumia's innocence.

The rules of engagement became clearer in Eugene's U.S. District Court last week, when a civil jury determined that a city police sergeant violated an environmental activist's constitutional protections against illegal search and seizure during a 2009 leafletting campaign outside a bank.The eight-person panel determined that Sgt. Bill Solesbee arrested environmentalist Josh Schlossberg without probable cause and used excessive force. But it was Solesbee's next act that sent legal minds across Oregon into hyperdrive: He seized the environmentalist's video camera without a warrant.

Of course, no Iranian elite forces will ever operate along the U.S. border. Not in this world...On the other hand, no one here would claim that a U.S. special operations team edging up to the Iranian border was anything out of the ordinary or that it potentially crossed any lines, red or otherwise, or was a step beyond what the international community accepts.

Thomas Friedman Wants to Take Away the Weekend
"What Friedman seems to miss in all of this is that saying "average is over" (as in his most recent column) or arguing that those who will succeed in the global economy are those who are willing to "sacrifice more" (as in The Lexus and the Olive Tree) is merely another way of stating that labor conditions are worsening for a distressingly large number of people."

A new society must be built outside of this one. By working "within the system," one is only integrating oneself further into the system. That's how the Ultramodern world works. Anything that expands or requires economic activity feeds the elitist system. This is what is expected of us. In order to create a healthier, nuturing future for ourselves and our descendants, we are going to have to create new lives outside of the realm of economics and alienation.

2012 State of the Union Address Lacks Reality Contact
The State of the Union, 2012 disappoints many of us, but the official address is disturbing, if only for it's lack of reality contact. "anyone who tells you that America is in decline or that our influence has waned, doesn't know what they're talking about. That's not the message we get from leaders around the world, all of whom are eager to work with us." There is evidence to the contrary, Mr. President, recently published.

We strongly encourage you all, especially those involved with Occupy Portland who tried telling their stories to City Council but were gavelled down by the Mayor, to turn out next Thursday, the 26th, at the East Portland Community Center to go on record with CRC with your concerns. It would probably be helpful even if you are relating a personal story of misconduct to articulate how you think things could be made better... no police horses or pepper spray at protests? Investigations into misconduct done by independent civilians, not police Internal Affairs? You decide.

Old Growth Clearcuts on BC's Coast
BWM contributor Mya discusses the beautiful forests in her area and the horrible plan to destroy it all. "There is a very destructive and sinister plan aimed at Cortes Island, which is of the archipelago known as the Discovery Islands located in BC's Gulf of Georgia. The entire Island is part of the traditional territories of the Wei We Kai, Kwiakah, Homalco and Klahoose First Nations, with the southern tip a part of the traditional territory of the Sliammon People. As I write this, the pristine Old Growth forests of Cortes Island are under attack, and this time it's Brookfield Asset Management at the helm."

Cops grow tired of innaction, kill suicidal man
After several months of Portland Police not having shot anyone to death (or at least not doing so in a way that generated a lot of media coverage), they must have been feeling rather restless and irritable. Perhaps they felt that their hands had been tied by months of protests against police killings. Clearly, it's the police who are supposed to be tying hands, not the other way around. So early this morning when officers were called by a suicidal man who was armed and thinking of jumping off a parking structure, they couldn't even wait until the CERT (emergy response team) could get there before shooting him.

I was proven horribly wrong enough times that I had to change my position. My rage and disappointment and disgust required me to change my position."
