All your drum and bass are belong to us

Jackbooted fascist thugs in full combat gear (allegedly local cops and SWAT teams, although they look like military troops to me) attacked a legal, insured, fully permitted rave called Verses in Utah County, Utah over the weekend.

An unlinked commentator on What Really Happened claimed that a "source inside the Utah government reports that this action was undertaken out of fear that the rave would be used to rally support for the protest against Bush's Utah visit."

Welcome to Amerikkka. If you think it can't happen here - news flash - it already is and has been for along time. It just wasn't happening to middle class white kids. This brutal attack was instigated to condition the people to police state repression and to give the fascists some intitial practice mauling peaceful civilian gatherings - based on the premise that they are about to start becoming a whole lot more common.

Photos in chronological order, captured from the video. The servers hosting the streaming video are all getting slammed so try here, here, and here. Download the video here. Eyewitness accounts here.

First they came for Muslims, and I said nothing, because I was not a Muslim. Then they came for ravers, and I said nothing, because I had no glow stick.

Utah is one of the most conservative (and creepy and beautiful) states in the country, so we shouldn't be surprised that it is the setting for one of the early episodes of the raw power crackdown that will become ever more prevelant throughout Amerikkka in the next few years. Music is a powerful source of community, solidarity and unity, which can easily lead to social and political consciousness, just like rock did in the 1960s. Clearly, the Evildoers - the Amerikkkan chapter of transnational corporate kleptocracy - cannot allow any sources of community, solidarity and unity to develop any strength. Hence their need to beat up teenage girls.

You think they'll do the same at Nascar tailgate parties? Somehow I doubt it.

You have a knack for
writing. I read about 20
blogs a day, and skim about
30 more, so I mean it! We
can all use improvement, but
you certainly are better than
most I've read.

I'm going to be starting a blog
soon, about keyword ranking
(I know, it sounds strange!) but
if you don't mind, I might drop
you a line just to get a little advice.
Ok?

Thanks kindly.

BLACKHOUSE sez....

This is our government in full stride and if you believe that it's only the GOP and/or the bush crime syndicate - think again: 16 year old girls (engaged in peaceful protest) were tortured with pepper-spray by clinton's SS here in Humboldt County. Don't be fooled by the "GOP vs the Democrats" swindle. Both parties are enemies of the people. Brothers and Sisters the time is now to unite and stand against the beast!
REMEMBER:
We will fight back! And we will WIN!

Read Sinclair Lewis' book:
IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE.

It is an older book and might be hard to find, but is worth the search.

It is awful that this kind of thing can happend, and get no coverage on the mainstream news. I am from Europe, and certainly in the Eighties there were many events which happened like this ( police state brutality ). For parralels, please search for Battle of the Beanfield, or poll tax demonstration, which Thatcher's government used extreme force to quell the voices of anyone who opposed her Facist legislation. Oh, and a very nicely written piece might I add.
