Charles has a regular feature describing police brutality cases from around the country (and in some cases, from around the world); the latest is especially worthy reading.
The crucial message we need to get out is that these are not bugs in the system; this is the system.
The Empirical Me
I’m Roderick T. Long, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University. I’m an Aristotelean/Wittgensteinian in philosophy and a left-libertarian market anarchist in social theory. (More about me here.) This blog, Austro-Athenian Empire, is a continuation of my earlier blog, archived here.
Roderick,
Something’s up with your blog. I can’t see the comments feed on the sidebar anymore.
As far as Charles/police affairs go, it’s a frickin nightmare. I mentioned my discussion with my generally well intentioned sister about SWAT teams. People really don’t know how bad it is. There should be leaflets listing incidents.
This is kind-of relevant. It’s Alan Watts talking about control to IBM (although on the technological level, not as much the level of power structures). Mostly though I want to hear Roderick’s take on Alan Watts qua philosopher…

Brandon’s up with my blog.
>There should be leaflets listing incidents.
This would be relatively simple to do. Just copy and paste some of Rad’s posts, add a heading and possibly pictures, urls, and other text.
