In the News (Thu 31 May 12)

  
  Civil disobedience - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Civil disobedience encompasses the active refusal to obey certain laws, demands and commands of a government or of an occupying power without resorting to physical violence.
Civil disobedience has been used in nonviolent resistance movements in India in the fight against British colonialism, South Africa in the fight against apartheid and in the civil rights movement of the USA and Europe as well as in the Scandinavian resistance against Nazi occupation.
Civil disobedience has served as a major tactic of nationalist movements in former colonies in Africa and Asia prior to their gaining independence.

 [Infoshop News] "Civil disturbance planning"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Further, it may very well be that police/military "civil disturbance" planning is the animating force and the overarching logic behind the incredible nationwide growth of police paramilitary units, a growth which coincidentally mirrors rising levels of police violence directed at the American people, particularly "non-white" poor and working people.
And yet, does not this assumption beg the question as to what civil unrest is? One could argue for example, that civil disturbance is nothing less than democracy in action, a message to the powers-that-be that the people want change.
The formulation of legitimizing doctrine, the training in the "tactics and techniques" of "civil disturbance suppression", and the use of "abusable", "non-lethal" weaponry, are ongoing, financed by tax dollars.

 Principles of Civil Disturbance Control
In many civil disturbance situations, the demonstrators and the control force are, in effect, competing for the sympathy of the general public.
Inherent in civil disturbances is the possibility that certain actions by the control force may not be accepted by the general public.
The objective of civil disturbance control is the restoration of law and order, not the imposition of punishment or the suppression of peaceful dissent.

Under the heading of "civil disturbance planning", the U.S. military is training troops and police to suppress democratic opposition in America.
Alden Williams, in a sympathetic 1969 treatment of the Army in civil disturbances, put it this way: "Where officials have not shown determination, or have invited violence by predicting it, violence has developed.
Hence, it follows that with few exceptions, serious riots are evidence of police failure and that, implicitly, it is at the point of police failure that states and their cities redeem their national constitutional guarantees and the Regular Army may be asked to intervene." (21) Some redemption.
