1. Good question. Not a single elected official who are asking the people to vote for them stood up

for the people when their brutal cops were beating unarmed, peaceful protesters in some cases, nearly to death.

The silence has been deafening.

Maybe it's time to organize a call-in to Brown's office. Citizens have been KILLED, children attacked by dogs on the streets of America, and not a single word from our government who spend trillions on so-called 'national security' in countries where the people are no threat to us.

Something is very wrong about all this.

Here is Jerry Brown's contact information:

Governor Jerry Brown
c/o State Capitol, Suite 1173
Sacramento, CA 95814

Phone: (916) 445-2841
Fax: (916) 558-3160


Everyone should call his office tomorrow and ask for a statement about the killings in Anaheim and the military police who are on the streets. The media apparently won't be doing it.
