Early this morning, protestors in #GreeneTownship #PA blocked the entrance to Combined Systems, Inc., a company specializing in the manufacture of military and police equipment including tear gas canisters, flash grenades, breaching munitions, and handcuffs. It supplies these products to polic, military, and prisons in the United States, as well as Egypt and Israel. Protestors demanded they stop manufacturing chemical weapons used against our communities.
Solidarity to all freedom fighters standing against these munitions around the world, and these brave protestors for locking down this facility today. At least one supply truck was forced to turn around due to this successful action.

Kudos to Gauthier and Brooks for asking Kenney to halt the eviction. No word though on whether it will work. https://www.instagram.com/p/CEArfCAjeFu/?igshid=1j13wikirsy5s

🚨🚨🚲 👮 We are going to start reporting relevant events from the police scanner to support any solidarity actions today. These relayed messages come from the scanners and we know that the police put out misinformation on scanners. Please use this as a supplemental piece of information in conjunction with what you see and hear on the ground.👮 🚲 🚨🚨
OTG nobody is at 17th st. Please remember that information from the scanner isnt always reliable. OTG info is much more reliable.
An injunction was just filed against the city to halt the eviction legally. No word on whether it will be effective but it's good to know the lawyers are looking out.
