The Iron Rail is organized in a way that puts theory into practice. We believe in a world without domination and oppression and in working to undermine authoritarian structures of power. As an anarchist collective, the Iron Rail has no bosses or managers. Group decisions are made collectively in weekly meetings, and members are encouraged to be creative in initiating individual projects. The bookstore is operated by volunteers who believe in the importance of establishing alternatives to capitalism, while creating new public spaces and supporting community projects.

Okay ... just in time for your Tea-Party Counter Demo. Here is a collection of media (poster, flyers, quartersheets/bookmarks) playing off the Alice in Wonderland Mad Hatter Tea Party Theme.

Have you heard about the SRLC Welcoming Committee? We are a coalition of New Orleans individuals and groups (including the Committee to Save Charity Hospital) coming together to welcome the Southern Republican Leadership Committee to New Orleans by letting them and the world know what we think of Republican governor Bobby Jindal's ruthless assaults on Louisiana healthcare and education.

The SRLC Welcoming Committee is a broad coalition of local educators, healthcare workers, students and other Louisianians, as well as members of the Committee to Reopen Charity Hospital, Save UNO, the Iron Rail Collective, Pax Christi, and many others.

We hope this page serves as a valuable resource. The United Neighborhood Organization (UNO) was established by a group of community leaders and local Priests in 1984. Modeled on the Saul Alinsky style of community organizing, we sought to build grass-roots leadership within Chicago's Hispanic neighborhoods to organize for power and address local issues such as prevalent street violence, the Hispanic dropout rate and overcrowding in schools.

Allee Bautsch suffered a fracture in five places in her leg below her knee. It was surgically repaired with a rod and screws.
What was that line Clinton was sayin’...? Oh, her it is:
“There can be real consequences when what you say animates people who do things you would never do,” Mr. Clinton said in an interview
they feign outrage about violence against women but there’s a huge asterisk *
* (however, we here at the AAC proudly embrace the right to gang-attack innocent conservative women on the streets just so long as they are unarmed)
AAC = “Anarchist A-holes Collective”
Not sure what it even is at this point.
Same here.
I need a shower after looking around the ironrail website and links though...lol.
EWWWW>>>>>>>>

“nothing to see here...move along”

Anarchists organizing. Wow. The irony in that is beyond words.
While I think it’s plausible that these people were attacked by leftist protestors, that hasn’t been proven yet.
For someone who is said to have been so ‘’maimed’’, if indeed that’s what this photo is showing, she doesn’t appear to be in any distress.
•Bautsch, the chief campaign fundraiser for Louisiana’s Republican Governor Bobby Jindal, attended a high-powered fundraising dinner at Brennan’s, a very ritzy restaurant in the French Quarter.
•Numerous leftists and far leftists protested at the event, getting so boisterous that the police were summoned and dispersed the protesters.
•After the event, Brautsch and Brown left the restaurant on foot.
•After about a block or so, they noticed that they were being followed by a group of about five men who started shouting insults (and, presumably, threats).
•Brown turned to confront the gang while urging Brautsh to fun for safety.
•Four of the followers fell upon Brown, beating him savagely, leaving him with a broken nose, a concussion, and numerous contusions. Some of those contusions were on his hand, indicating that he fought back with some effectiveness.
•The fifth pursued and caught Brown, who suffered a broken leg - fractured in 5 places.
•When police and paramedics arrived, Brown was lying on the sidewalk with her head resting on a curb, her purse under her head as a pillow.
•The descriptions of the assailants matches those of some of the protesters caught on video outside Brennan’s.
