In outlining their tactics and strategy for anarchist protests during the inauguration of President George W. Bush on January 20, the Anarchist Resistance website has called for an end to the United States.

Below is their "Call to Action" posted on their website http://www.anarchistresistance.org/anarchistcall.shtml

***************************************************************************************

All out for an anarchist mobilization against centralized power...at the 2005 Presidential Inauguration: Washington, DC - January 15-20th. As George W. Bush is coronated on January 20th, the question is not if there will be protests, but what shape these protests will take. Thousands are organizing to oppose Bush's Inauguration. As the liberal and authoritarian groups negotiate permits with the powers that be, it's time to put forward an alternate vision of protest; one of resistance to, not cooperation with the authorities.

This January, let the world see not a display of American Patriotism from the right and American "free speech" from the left but a massive resistance to the latest representation of 200+ years of murder, slavery, greed and genocide that has been the American way from George Washington to George W. Bush. There's nothing left to salvage in this empire that is the U.S. government. It's time to bring it down.

For those of us who envision a world without rulers, a world without borders and a world with freedom for all, not just those within a particular nation, class, race, gender or religion - the time to act is now - with all out resistance to capitalism and centralized power. From empires, occupation, and colonialism by governments, to a culture based on patriarchy, domestic violence, child abuse, and so many forms of oppression - the system is broken. It cannot be fixed, or reformed as many will try and tell us. It is from the ashes of the system, that the new world that we envision can arise.

The U.S. Presidential Inauguration is one of the grandest ceremonies of the ruling class in the land. As anarchists, it's a prime opportunity to shatter these illusions of grandeur by crashing this decadent display of arrogance and wealth. This, Jan. 20th, let's bring anarchy to the streets of DC - make resistance visible, and ring in the next four years with a smash!

what would/could make people do the right thing?


Nothing would, however that is to assume they want to do "the right thing" which they do not.
