[CPRB] press conference

[Neil Parthun]

I concur with Esther.

While we may not like all of the current manifestation of the CRB  
ordinance, we have an opportunity to change that in the future when  
the Council reviews the efforts of the CRB and the FOP contract comes  
up for renewal/negotiations with the city.

The efforts of the CRB have been highly commendable but there were  
also substantial efforts by the Council, Mayor and the police to  
assist in coming up with this current ordinance which we're pretty  
happy with.  I am not entirely comfortable with having a press  
conference to take the limelight from the Mayor and the Council.  I  
think our time could be better spent telling people about their new  
rights in regards to complaining about the police + strategizing  
about how to seize the opportunities later on to make our  
'improvements' to the current CRB when it comes up for review.  Just  
a thought.d

Don't mourn. Organize,
                     x Neil x

I read somewhere that when a person takes part in community action,  
his health improves.  Something happens to him or to her  
biologically. It's like a tonic.

Even though you can't expect to defeat the absurdity of the world,  
you must make that attempt.  That's morality, that's religion.   
That's art.  That's life.
