What to do with unwanted aggression when rightfully protesting

An intelligent person speaks .... | 09.07.2003 11:31 | Repression | London

Can we find intelligent ways to deal with unwanted aggression from police/security guards/etc when we are protesting.......What do people think about having mass self defence classes?......,when we live in times like these when some members of um "authority" will use wholly innapropriate and certainly ungracious methods of violence to try and quell the growing Dissent and overall disagreement with the "New World Order"

Does anyone out there have any ideas how to deal with being attacked by the police and security guards etc.......Have any of you considered learning self defence,?.......
The police and armed forces use alot of choke holds and wrist/arm locks as taught in Ju-Jitsu/Kenpo/etc and various other martial arts....
In days of yore martials in various forms were devised by peasant farm workers to defend themselves against unwanted robberies and beatings from enforced tax/levys etc in rural and ancient china.....
It has since been adopted by all the police forces /armed forces in the world to oppress bully and intimidate anyone who rightfully speaks out against the establishment........
We now live in perilous times where all around the world police brutality is in endemic proportions,and we have allowed ourselves and our minds to be totally obvedience/fear programmed,or obedience through fear programmed.....
We live in a time today when we realise that we can no longer accept the oppressive and brutal regimes of "freedom and democracy" offered and proffered to us by our present day
"Leaders" or "World leaders" and "senior police officers" who regularly appear on "television" whilst claiming to speak for the "majority" or thier self imposed greed and fear based "society".........
If we are prepared to rid ourselves totally of the deep and self-destructive programmed
fear and obedience that we have of "authority"
AND if we are prepared to embrace love as opposed to fear or love instead of fear
then we can really change this planet and this planetary conciousness,.....
WE are all one in love
BUT WE are totally separated divided ruled and controlled in fear...
Understand this simple fact that when you are approached by police and you become afraid then the deep seated fear/control programming is working in you.....
So when we are attacked physically by those who claim to be "protecting" us then we should remember that Mr greedy arms dealing politician and Mr fascist policeman,and Mr child abusing politician all are cut form the same cloth and that our taxes pay for them to oppress and brutalise us ,and that out taxes pay for them to flood this country with crack coaine,heroin etc........
can't you see that they are against us.....
can you also see that we must resist this global prison that they are creating,through the blind mans id card proposal.....
WE ARE ALL ONE IN LOVE
LOVE IS THE ONLY AUTHORITY WE SHOULD ANSWER TO
So when we understand that TV was designed specifically to programm our brains/minds with and ugly and utterly insanely imposed subjective reality.....we can understand that we are becoming aware today of the totally beautiful reality of a world without police ,a world without policians,a world with out religion which causes war,a world without war which creates religion.....
This is the ultimate reality of LOVE
And NOT FEAR ,RELIGION,OR HATRED
So we can get rid of this imposed prison of aids/sars/financial/poverty/ that they in the
"new world order" are imposing on us......
And we need to free our hearts and our minds and our souls from them RIGHT NOW
So how can we do this?
By taking ain-depth look at the Television Imposed Reality ,or the Comsumer Based Reality
that they impose on us.....What are the intelligent non-violent ways that we can reach out to those who need to understand that they are trapped by big brother?
WE MUST EMBRACE LOVE
WE CANNOT EMBRACE FEAR because THEN THEY CONTROL US
So how can we create in us and for us a reality that is all about LOVE and which isn't a FEAR BASED REALITY any ideas????
