In this photo from Monday, Aug. 15, 2011, Jevon Cochran, left, and protesters stand in the door of a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train at the Civic Center station in San Francisco. Rather than resort to another shutdown of subway cellular service to deter protesters, the San Francisco Bay Area’s transit agency closed down stations in the path of marchers, inconveniencing thousands of evening commuters. Bay Area Rapid Transit officials said they undertook the strategy to protect public safety on train platforms. (AP Photo/Jeff Chiu)
San Francisco and Oakland’s Bay Area Rapid Transit system (BART) recently blocked cell phone signals in an effort to control mobs and protesters. While the debate about the wisdom of blocking communication systems continues, the protesters are moving forward with various plans to try and impose their demands on the transit system.
Today, September 8th, plans are in place for a protest called “Spare The Fare” that will test the limits of the public transit system and the police officers charged with protecting the riders and employees of BART. The details are covered on Day of Rage website (a self-declared clearinghouse for anti-capitalist thinking).
“Spare The Fare” is explained:
We are calling on anarchists, anti-authoritarians, and radicals (and everyone else) to step up for our “SPARE THE FARE” BART action, this Thursday at 5:00 PM at Powell Street Station. We have one demand, which is that the BART police department be shutdown.
The idea is to gather so many people outside the turnstiles that traffic will be hampered to the point that BART officials will be forced to open the emergency gates. This allows everyone to walk onto the trains without a ticket. If BART chooses to close the station, protesters have plans to move to another station and do the same thing.
Instead of solving the problem of a couple of bad police officers among the BART Police staff, these groups are demanding that BART Police be completely disbanded.
The protest also has the support of a group called “Feminists Against Cops” – this organization sees any police force as a threat:
As Feminists against Cops, we want everyone across the bay area to know that women are not safer because of police presence, in BART or elsewhere. Quite the opposite. Many women are in danger because of the police. Every police institution is sexist and violent. The police are more of a threat to women than a protection, and we do not want our public transport system militarized.
Seriously? This group believes that “EVERY police institution is sexist and violent.” But the Feminists Against Cops are also against paying fares for using the transit system:
The ridiculous BART fares are a burden for people who struggle for survival. We evade fares because we claim the right to be able to move freely even if we don’t have the money to pay the fares. Since evading fare is part of how we survive and move freely, then this also means that in order to survive and move freely, we must resist police.
The “evade fares” thinking is not new to the Anti-Capitalist crowd, back on August 5th of this year, the following demands were on a printed hand-out distributed at something called a “propaganda action” at the corner of 16th & Mission Streets.
two simple demands
COPS OFF THE TRAINS AND BUSES
FREE TRANSIT FOR EVERYONE
“Free transit” appears to be at the center of this movement, and the rationale for this demand is also explained for the curious:
We can’t afford to pay the fare, and we have other shit to spend our money on even if we could. We jump the turnstiles, board through the back door, and buy transfers on the street.
We have places to go: jobs to get to, lines to wait in at the food stamp office, parole officers to see, charges to beat, streets to sweep, lonely parents to see. We need a ride because our legs can’t take us that far anymore, or because we just didn’t want to walk on the street wearing a skirt and heels, or because we’re black and brown and know the cops don’t need any more reason to fuck with us.
They also include some plans for making all of this happen, and it includes violence, vandalism and blatant criminal behavior:
STOP PAYING FARES: board through the back door, jump the turnstiles. Keep one clipper card to swipe if you see the inspectors board. If you get caught, buy a transfer on the next bus and send it in with your ticket.
NO CONTROL: spray paint the cameras, smash the ticket machines, break the card readers, black-out the snitch-lines.
HAVE EACH OTHER’S BACKS: open the back door or emergency exit, share your transfer, and never snitch!
GET TOGETHER: Drivers, riders, poor people, unemployed people, those of us that are targeted and harassed by cops – we need to meet up, to make plans together, to fight together to get rid of the transit police and make public transit free.
The “Feminists Against Cops” want more than free public transit, they seem to want free everything:
If we want food, we simply need to take it. If we want houses, we need to take them as well. If we want to move freely – without fares or fear of death – we need to take direct action to eliminate fares and the police. If we want free trains, we simply need to make them free.
More than a year ago, Glenn Beck warned that “The Coming Insurrection” – a textbook for bringing down Capitalism – fueled the riots in the streets of Europe, was coming to America. It appears that groups like Feminists Against Cops and that advocate for free transportation, free food, and housing are working to make Beck’s prediction a reality.

As a resident of the SF Bay Area, if this is happening, I am very glad I don’t ride BART. I have been listening to a San Francisco radio station for the last 3 – 1/2 hours, and all they have said is that this “Bay of Rage” is rumored but hasn’t happened yet.

Posted on September 8, 2011 at 8:51amExcuse me, but there is NO rage in AMERICA. Those of you trying to stir up trouble, need to sit down and shut up. You live in the most privileged country ever in the history of mankind. You are blessed to live here in AMERICA. Goodness, folks, you don’t like it here, leave. Now.
For the 17th of September, our 9.12 Group in WNC is holding a reading allowed of the Constitution of the United States of America. We will be be gathered joyfully, gratefully and humbly giving thanks to GOD for giving us AMERICA.
After that, we are all going out for target practice and getting ready to clean up this country and take it back.
Any questions?

Just another excuse to vandalize and break the law while the rest of the working people pay for their laziness. CA needs jails like AZ has, put them in tents in the desert and let them serve 60 days breaking rocks. Then let them out to walk home.

Posted on September 9, 2011 at 12:20amI grew up when our Flag had 48 stars. The country (and the world) seemed a lot friendlier then. Also, Geography class was easier! Now I hear that O-Blame-o wants to make the welfare country of Puerto Rico into the 51st state. Just what we need – more welfare people to support. My opinion is that our Flag has more than enough stars now! How the heck are they gonna fit that odd star in there? I guess it WOULD be easier if Cali just “dropped of the map”!

Posted on September 8, 2011 at 10:22amIt’s come to my attention recently that “those of us that are targeted and harassed by cops” are people who constantly cause trouble. The police have their “regulars”, too. If a certain address or name comes up, they all know whom to expect when they arrive and it’s usually the same kind of cr@p. I don’t feel sorry for any of these stupid people – if you want cops to stop “harassing” you, get your life straight, get a job, pay your fines and child support, and stop selling your prescription drugs supplied by taxpayers. I can guarantee they won’t “bother” you again.

Try being pit at, cussed at, your family threatened, swung at, and much more on a regular bases, and lets see how well your patients last. Ask most people what they would do if someone spit at them, swung at them and everything else on a regular bases……How well would they handle it. and no I’m Not an officer.

I like the way you think. Maybe they should offer them BOAT rides instead of train rides.
I will bet the Police have boats that could be used for just this thing, or take them on to Alcatraz for the tour and leave them. That way they could have free housing, free transportation, no police they could go all over the Island with no one to bother them, the police would have to give them a candy bar so they can have free food. They can go for a swim any time they want to.Of course only about 4 people have ever made it to shore and they are not sure about that.
I love my Idea…… I wish they would use it for this bunch of idiots. They can’t even be called useful idiots. They are just useless.
