[Peace] Sign ACLU petition "Town Don't Need Tanks"

Mon Sep 8 10:15:10 EDT 2014

Please consider signing this ACLU petition calling on the ending of the
1033 Program distributing military gear to local police. I recently wrote a
story
<http://truth-out.org/news/item/25792-the-banality-of-police-militarization-how-champaign-urbana-acquired-its-mrap>
about the Champaign County Sheriff's gigantic 25-ton MRAP truck acquired
through this program.

Thank you,

BD

Hi Carol—

In less than 48 hours we'll deliver our petition to the Departments of
Defense, Homeland Security and Justice demanding that they stop funding the
militarized policing of communities of color.

*Will you add your name?*

On Tuesday, September 9th, the one month anniversary of Michael Brown’s
death, there will be a Senate hearing on Militarization.

The ACLU will be at that hearing and will share our petition, which has
already gotten almost 50,000 signatures from ACLU supporters like you — *Can
you help us reach 75,000 signatures by Tuesday?*

The more of us that speak out against militarized policing, the louder our
voices will be.

Just last Thursday, Eric Holder, the Attorney General and head of the
Department of Justice, called for a sweeping federal investigation into the
Ferguson police force. This is a great step towards accountability, and now
that we have the Administration’s ear, *let’s tell them to stop funding the
militarized arming of local police forces.*

Militarization of local police turns our communities into war zones,
dehumanizes our children, and turns ordinary Americans into enemy
combatants. Let's stand up together and* tell the feds: No more tanks
rolling down Main Street.*

*Sign now.*
