Truth, Industries. This is issue 202. The "just

routine. Good stuff. And they say, the truth shall

2nite. It's loud. Generation X is yelling it.
Gen who? What? You're kidding me! Those silly
silent slackers? They said what??? To who?
You've got to be kidding me.
Purpose. Hmmm. The world may end 2morrow, and
you will die. Well you will. So will I. Someday.
Not tomorrow, not next week. For now there is

Marc,
Were you in Seattle for the WTO thing?
I am looking for somebody who could write
about it from the anarchopacifist point of
view for Ahimsa,

anarchists who are working to bring
together peace and freedom.

Thanks for the nice words.
I actually thought the coverage
would improve over the course of
the meetings -- I was wrong.
This is one of the worst
blackouts I've seen.

RUDOLPH, THE HARD-NOSED FASCIST
By Sananda Dec 4, 1999:
You know Safir, and Cohen, and Kerik,
and Turner; Kuriansky, and Goodman,
and Osterreich and Hess.
But do you recall, the most famous
fascist of all?
Rudolph, the hard-nosed fascist
Had a very slimy nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it grows
All of the other fascists
Used to laugh and call him names
They would never let poor Rudy
Play in any fascist games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Satan came to say:
Rudolph with your nose so mean
Bust the homeless!
Make the city clean
Then all of the fascists loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the hard-nosed fascist
You'll go down in history!

[PAWN] - Excerpts From A First Person Seattle Account.
by Prime Anarchist. Special to PAWN World Newz.
The most worthwhile first person account of Seattle's Tuesday
victory over Multinational Corporations was very long. Rather than
asking ATI's news board to consider going 50K for the next issue,
I made a quick editorial decision to cull out excerpts that I
thought were the most helpful to those of us who wish to know
what really really went on besides what the no-longer-credible
(my opinion, I stand by it) "legitimate press" may attempt to
disseminate.
The account is titled:
By a WTO Protestor.
It begins "I got on a Greyhound bus in Pittsburgh at 3:00am,"
The signature at the end has first and last name. I will only put
here that his first name is Damon. The rest of this piece is in
Damon's words. I will leave you with the following thought as you
read this. "George Orwell lives." I'm sorry if all you know about
Orwell is his big brother book, because that's not what I'm
talking about at all. You'll see.
signed,
-=gonz=-
[FIRST PERSON ACCOUNT]
From time to time ambulances would come through and the crowd
would clear a path immediately. Some protesters said,
"What if WTO delegates are sneeking in on the ambulances?"
But people came to an immediate concensus that, although that
was a possiblity, it wasn't worth risking people's safety.
Suddenly, a WTO delegate made it unnoticed through our lines.
But when he made it to police they refused to let him enter.
They turned back another delegate later.
---------------
<excerpts only. >
---------------
Against non-violent protesters, they used pepper spray, clubs,
tear gas, and later fired rubber bullets and marbles at the
people. In every single instance I witnessed first hand, police
violently attacked non-violent protesters with no provocation
whatsoever. That was the case when I was beaten and sprayed,
that was the case when downtown was flooded with gas, with
helicopters flying overhead shining spotlights down into
the crowd.
The police chased them into a business area and fired tear
gas into crowds that were now made up of shoppers and people
getting dinner as well as protesters. Finally, after 12
hours of people being beaten and gased, a small riot broke
out. A Starbucks coffee store was damaged and looted.
I'm amazed it took this long to happen, and I say this
in all honesty from being here first hand, that, by
repeatedly attacking and torturing non-violent protesters,
the Seattle police sought to incite a riot and finally
succeeded to a small degree.
One newscaster said, "Come on, get a life. We live in a
prosperous country." In all honesty, the news is scaring
me more than the riot police, because what it has done is
justify further violence against the protesters. They have
said that "police have been too lenient." The police have
used teargas, pepper spray, clubs, rubber bullets, and
marbles against peaceful civilians in downtown Seattle.
The only thing they haven't done is used live amunition.
And in the event that greater violence occurs against
protesters, the media will have justified it.

[PASS] a prime anarchist short snippet.
Rally this Sunday, December 12
Stafford, California (basically if you're reading this
right now, you're missin')
As another winter of high winds and freezing rain pounds Northern
California, 25-year old Julia Butterfly Hill will reach her second year
sitting 180' high in a giant redwood called Luna on Friday, December 10,
1999. A rally will be held to honor her efforts on Sunday, December 12,
at 10am in Stafford, California in Humboldt County, 240 miles north of San
Francisco on Highway 101. A benefit concert featuring Bonnie Raitt and
Joan Baez is scheduled for Wednesday, December 8 in Redway, CA.
Julia has been keeping this tree-top vigil on a tarp-covered platform
to stop Maxxam/Pacific Lumber Company from completing a timber harvest
plan that dooms the 1,000-year-old redwood tree she has called home
since 1997.

Second black mesa memory
by marco
I pull up to a gas station in hopiland behind
a guy in a nice ride who's honking at the man
with the medium length black hair in the attendants
booth.
There's a restaurant behind him. I remember having
had a hopi taco or a navajo taco - I never remember the
difference. And a salad.
The man's hollaring out his window, "could you hurry up?
I got places to go."
"I'll be out in a second." He's looking down concentrating
on something and there's a glow surrounding him. I cut the
motor and go in and get a soda to go. Somewhere between
lukewarm and cold.
"Hurry up" says the man in the shiny car.
"Hold your horses," man looking down.
I come out, pop the soda top, wander over to the man
looking down. Still aglow.
"Wow," I say, "whatcha makin'?"
"Kachina."
"Gotta get to a stopping point for some belagonna."
"I know whatcha mean," I tell him, and
"Wow, that's wood? It's beautiful."
"Thanks," he says. "I'm trying to finish it today."
He smiles and looks at me for the first time. I smile back.
I go back in my van and play some guitar. In a little while
he comes out and starts pumping gas for me first so the guy in the
shiny car calls him a "fkkng injn bsstrd, I was here first."
The man in the medium length black hair waves to him and doesn't
look up, just finishes my gas, makes change and goes back in to
put his money away before waiting on the guy in the shiny car.
I drive off wracking my brain trying to remember who in my
family taught me to hold my horses. I don't remember 'til the
next day I'm herding sheep. It's my swedish boatbuilder grandfather
the carpenter in connecticut. He's about 85 now. Lives in one
of the Masonic Home and Hospitals. We don't agree on very much.
Just taking deep breaths first thing in the morning for a long
time before starting your day.
I can't wait to visit him this December.
He's one of my heros.
