From Scenes from the Atlanta Forest
“No Forest? No Peace! Truck the Police!”, reads a banner hanging from a skypod attached to an overturned truck blocking the ONLY Bridge crossing the little creek between the police construction staging ground and the main part of the forest which they intend to destroy.
This is a CALL-TO-ACTION for eco-warriors worldwide to come help defend the forest from any further police intrusion and destruction! The kkkops would train here to militarize against those resisting all systems of oppression; in the name of abolition we must take action!
We need ingenious comrades to help person and support the skypod (the “Truck Stop”), as well as help maintain the TEN existing barricades around the Camp Deadnettle areas (& forge new ones!)
Deadnettle is a virulent plant that grows in disturbed soil, in this it is akin to our rag-tag crew of rowdy comrades who gather in places of disruption to stand against the machines.
This is OUR forest and will NEVER become the mock kkkop training city they intend it to be!
We have over 500 acres to defend between fighting off the police and staving off Hollywood from clear-cutting the forest for their bullshit movies.
If you come to make a stand against the long arm of the law, know that autonomous action is encouraged!
Go feral! Build pirate ships! Dance with us! Don’t bring your hierarchical shit here. Leave your clocks.
Bring your art and your fury! Let’s supplant the slimy fingers of the police and oppressive systems they make possible.
The main gate police and earth destroying machinery use to enter the forest has been barricaded shut– help us keep it that way!
If you are interested in throwing down and joining our funky feral brigade, hit us up on the riseup at:
See you in the Forest!
With Love and Rage,
-Camp Deadnettle-

If only I could cross that

If only I could cross that fucking border (and its attached Covid restrictions)...
forced border crossing might be possible

During the 2001 Battle of Quebec,some US based participants got over the Canadian border in remote areas, using a variety of tactics to defeat surveillance. Same drill coming back
The skills required to defeat cops in the woods at a land defense are similiar to those used for a stealthy border crossing in a remote area.
Note that a forced border crossing going onr way may require a forced border crossing to return. The most difficult border crossing in so-called "North America" has historically been crossing thr Mexico-US border northbound, and crossing the same border Southbound was as of 2018 reportedly the easiest. The Canada-US border while plenty porous has been reportedly getting nastier and nastier for legal crossings. Even in 2001, covert crossers had to carry battle gear for activists crossing legally. Also woods-wise activists acted as coyotes for those who lacked these skills. This tactic multiplied the number of unofficial border crossers able to attend the Battle of Quebec against the (defeated) FTAA or Free Trade Area of the Americas.
2001 was 20+ years ago, Luke

Border controls have just kept getting tougher and more sophsiticated over the years. Back in the days, yes, you could just cross thr absurd US-Canada border and then flash your butt to the Customs, but nowadays you could be dealing with surveillance tech including drones and choppers, tho it may not be that bad everywhere. Anyways I was more referring to crossing into the US from Mexico, as from Canada that'd be quite an insane adventure in the winter.
ever hear of kevin johnston?

ever hear of kevin johnston? he's this garden variety, far right, covid denying, social media attention whore who recently almost died attempting the crossing before he had to be "rescued" by border agents. the idiots who were supposed to be his ride ended up calling it in once it became clear they couldn't locate him cuz they're all idiots. did i mention how dumb all these ppl are?
btw, nothing against attention workers, attention work is real work! but this guy is particularly delusional, racist and vile, as well as dumber than a bag of hammers. for example, he thought that a compass app on his phone was the same as having a real compass for navigating in the bush. cute right? imo they should have left him for the wolves but if you're only half as stupid as him, you could probably still make the crossing.
