Police delivered Eviction Notice by the People
In response to this dispatch, we intend to evict injustice and blight,
by occupying St. Louis Police headquarters on December 31st, 2014, at
11am. The decision to reclaim our police department is the result of
willful neglect and violence on behalf of the department toward the
community, which they are bound, by oath, to protect and serve.
Violations include: Committing crimes against humanity, by ending the
life of men, women, and children, and then labeling these executions as
“justified” without regard for your humanity, and without thorough
investigation. Hiring officers, who are unfit to wear a badge, like
Randy Hayes, a known animal torturer, and Jason Flannery, who publicly
declared he wanted to “shoot Muslims.” Both these men shot and killed
two members of our community and have not been held accountable for
these egregious actions, but rather have been protected behind a blue
shield. Despite thousands marching in the streets; despite our community
having to sue our own police department to stop the use of tear gas and
rubber bullets; despite urgent demands for broad and substantive
reforms, our cries have been ignored. For all these reasons, we intend
to occupy St. Louis Police Headquarters as part of our New Year’s
resolution to take back our Justice System, and in doing so reclaiming
the promise of our future.
