Channel: OccupyHNL
Date: 2013-10-12

on October 9th 2013 the full fakestatecity council had a second hearing on Bills 58, 59 and 60.   here is a clip of the video.   this was done while we were dealing with Madori's trial, a comrade being held in prison for not showing ID, court appearances, massive ticketing- targeting for jaywalking in the way of touching the white line during the raid earlier in the day and taking care of the camp.    they had voted on these horrid bills, mostly without comment and passed them banally on second reading unanimously to the next committee in the last week of this month.    https://www.facebook.com/OccupyHonolulu/posts/650131801686344

if you can, be on record of being against the disappearing of people from the streets of capital and the disappearing of public spaces. consider attending and being a witness to this torture by committee.   soon they will squeeze and squeeze the allowable places till we will be only left with refuge upon private property and at the mercy of a new landed gentry; a citizenship qualified only through not the deeds one partakes upon but the deeds one at times very well may sit upon.   a new sense and insensibility.    

the next step in and the feeding of the great speculative bubble of occupation, will be at the COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC SAFETY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT in the last week of October.    speak out and bear witness to this. eventually the status quo of capital has got to go.   you can declare your testimony now by going to the link below provided. to note the bill you are speaking of and the members of the committee may shuttle it safer.

"[T]hough we say there is nothing dignified about sleeping or urinating, there is certainly something inherently undignified about being prevented from doing so. Every torturer knows this: to break the human spirit, focus the mind of the victim through petty restrictions pitilessly imposed on the banal necessities of life. We should be ashamed that we have allowed our laws of public and private property to reduce a million or more citizens to something like this level of degradation. "

"We are recreating society -- and public life -- on the model of the torturer, swerving 
wildly between paternalistic interest in the lives of our subjects and their structured 
degradation. In essence we are recreating a public sphere that consists in unfreedom 
and torture. Or as Mike Davis (1990:234) puts it in a chillingly accurate metaphor: 
"The cold war on the streets of Downtown is ever escalating." To the degree we can 
convince ourselves that the homeless are the Communists of our age, we are calling 
this public sphere just. And that has the effect of legitimizing not only our own restrictions on the autonomy of others, but also the iniquitous political economy that creates the conditions within which we take such decisions."
