Loyal Ashvegas reader bad news points me to this post on anarchistnews.org. I haven’t seen any news reports of this vandalism, but I’ll look again:
Nov. 24 in the dead of night, we attacked the Department of Corrections (DOC): Division of Community Corrections on McDowell St. in Asheville, NC.
Six DOC vehicles were disabled. Their tires were slashed and their windows destroyed with glass etching fluid. “Burn the Prisons” and a circled A were scrawled across DOC building’s veneer.
This building oversees the administration of probation and forced drug texts. It is one institutional position of the DOC. It is linked to the Prison Industrial Complex, and the police apparatus. We did this as an attack against this institution in particular and the police apparatus in general. We did this as an act of revolutionary solidarity with comrade Eric Oseland, comrade David Japenga, and comrade Alfredo Bonanno, who was recently released from Greek Prison.
In a world dominated by these institutions and saturated by police, we did this to show that we will not be neutralized, and that it is absolutely possible and imperative that we fight these motherfuckers.
Love and solidarity with all prisoners and POWs in social war

and another thing.. McDowell St. is just the office where probation officers work. There are no prisoners there, the point of probation is that it allows offenders not to go to jail.
Good job morons!
Won't these assholes just quit it? I'm so tired of their antics.
Wait….how can you be an anarchist and work in cooperation with others? Isn't that against the "rules" of anarchy?
Slashing tires is about the least effective way one can "disable" a vehicle. You know who pays for those tires right?
Also, you have "comrades" pending trial. You are not helping them at all. They will be tried by juries you have poisened.
Thanks I guess for not attacking small businesses.
I'm deeply perplexed by the level of ignorance and unrestrained hatred masquerading as social consciousness amongst these kids.
"forced drug texts" ?
Hmmm, looks like these anarchists need to go back to school to learn to edit their propaganda. But maybe they can learn better English in a prison program.
That'll teach the police apparatus!!!!!! Maybe the DOC guards will strap on an apparatus of their own and show some anarchists a thing or two about vandalism.
Seriously?! Ok, screw these people …
So tired of bullshit like this. Maybe they've got a point (?!) somewhere, but relaying it in such an idiotic, destructive way makes it completely invalid.
