ALERT: National Socialist Movement Meet and Greet to be Held in Northern PA on Saturday 8/13
from Philly Antifa
According to the NSM’s website and several event websites they plan to hold a “Meet and Greet” event in Ulysses, PA this Saturday at 4pm.
The event is being hosted by Daniel and Sabrina Burnside, who live at 406 State Street in Ulysses. Their house is not easy to miss at it proudly displays a Swastika flag outside.
Daniel works as a wood sculptor under the name “Lion’s Den Carvings” (link is to a video from a “Carving Rondevous” that his work was featured at. At 4:30 in the vid) and also does Tattoos out of his home as “Lion’s Den Tattoo & Piercing”
The NSM recently held a disastrous attempt at a “White Lives Matter” rally in Buffalo, NY and were routed by local Anti-Racists and Anti-Fascists. Ulysses is only about 2.5 hours from Buffalo, but it is unknown whether The Burnsides were in attendance.
Eric McDavid at the Wooden Shoe
from Facebook
Eric McDavid is a green anarchist who was entrapped by an FBI informant and charged with a single count of conspiracy to use fire or explosives to damage corporate and government property.
After serving nearly 10 years in prison his judgment and sentencing were vacated when it became known that the FBI had failed to disclose potentially exculpatory evidence to the defense. Eric pleaded guilty to a lesser charge that carried a 5 year maximum sentence. He was released almost immediately.
Come hear Eric tell his story.
Presented by Burning Books. BURNING BOOKS is an artist-run, weirdness-driven organization dedicated to the production and publication of unmuzzled literature, music, and art. It was founded by writer/editor Melody Sumner Carnahan and artist/designer Michael Sumner in Oakland, California, in 1979.
Event is handicap accessible and free, though donations are very appreciated, as Eric is traveling all the way from Northern California with almost no funding.

Cop car vandalized during DNC protest
from Mainstream Media
The Philadelphia Police Department would like to know who went all “Harold and His Purple Crayon” on one of their police cruisers during DNC protests Monday in South Philadelphia.
A photo of a Philadelphia Police SUV parked in the middle of a street with a long, squiggly line of red paint along the passenger’s side has been circulating around Twitter this morning.
Sgt. Eric Gripp, police spokesman, said the cop car was parked on the 1100 block of South Broad Street in Point Breeze, along one of the main protest routes, at about 2:30 p.m. When the officers went back to their vehicle 15 minutes later, they discovered the vandalism, Gripp said.

ALERT: Counter the Westboro Baptist Church at the Mazzoni Center 7/26
from Philly Antifa
When: 7/26/2016 @ 1:45 PM
Where: Mazzonni Center, 809 Locust Street Philly
What: Confront the Homophobic, Sexist and Racist Westboro Baptist Church and let them know they aren’t welcome in our city.
The Westboro Baptist Church has announced plans to protest outside The Mazzoni center briefly during the DNC. Several counter protests have been called, and we are encouraging Anti-Fascists in the city to take an hour to tell them to fuck right off.
The Mazzoni center has provided cheap and free medical services to LGBTQ people in the city since 1979. That is something that should be celebrated; not protested. Join us in letting Westboro Baptist Church that they aren’t welcome in Philly (or anywhere) and that no one is intimidated or impressed by their circus act.
Queers Bash Back.

Frank Rizzo Mural in Philly Tagged With Anti-Police Graffiti
from Mainstream Media
In 2012, the Italian Market’s giant mural of former Mayor Frank Rizzo was tagged with graffiti calling him a fascist. Today there’s a new tag that says, “F*** Racist Pigs. End Cops 4eva.”
Rizzo was mayor of Philadelphia from 1972 until 1980. Prior to that, he spent four years as Police Commissioner. His entire career was controversial, and many people—not just the painters who recently vandalized the mural—believe he had racist and fascist tendencies.
