Sat May 12 : Stop Stateterrorism :RALLY Stop NSW Police Killing & Shooting & Terrorising non Anglos

 Occupy Sydney participants are supporting a call to Rally to Stop Police Brutality, Shootings , Taserings and Killings outside Kings Cross Police Station this Saturday at 2.30pm.
 Recent shootings of an aboriginal youth and young man by and the taser killing of a Brazilian man are just the latest in a long chain of NSW and Australian Police killings and shootings of an overwhelmingly   
  The overarching message NSW Governments of Labor and Liberal persuasion have delivered via Racist Police over many years is "the whiter you are, the righter you are". The message is ritually reinforced almost nightly with officers unconstrained by the parameters of legality nightly applying psychological terrorism as a weapon against youth particularly of Asian Polynesian Arabic appearance -or those who might come from modest economic backgrounds as defined by their appearance. These incidents are so common and widespread that they go largely unreported.


 Research of NSW Police taserings shootings and killings show that the victims are overwhelmingly non anglo.A high percentage had diagnosed mental health issues. Not One Police Oficer has been charged or convicted in relation to these incidents. In fact the liberal stress leave available to NSW police officers who kill is regarded by many as an incentive to kill, safe in the knowledge that "we look after our own" when investigations happen.


 The following is a Rally call from Indigenous Social Justice Action republished in full: (we suggest copying printing & circulating the following as an A5 flyer.)

  3. Remove the Tasers from all Frontline Police.Full and open Public Inquiry to be held into their use and who should use them.
  4. Review of the use of Glock handguns, requirements for in depth training, including psychiatric assessment of all officers, and finally who should be issued with such a deadly weapon.
