Some justice

Injustice is a documentary feature film that follows the struggles for justice by the families of people that have died in police custody. Between 1969 and 1999 over one thousand people died in police custody in England. Not one police officer has ever been convicted for any of these deaths.

The Police continue their reign of terror over the working class after 10 years of a New Labour government. In particular, people of colour are still indiscrimanately targetted by the Beast.

Yet all sections of the working class regularly face harrassment at the hands of the boys and girls in blue. Especially if you are young and poor.

Prince Harry or Jack Straw's son can get shitfaced and smoke dope because they are rich and their parents are important, but don't dare do the same in aworking class area or the shit-thick pigs will feel your collar.

In the Army, you are severely disciplined or sacked for getting caught on a dope test, but you think it would be the sam e for the pigs. Not a bit, these scum who enforce the law are so drugged up that senior officers are afraid to test them for having to sack too many of the scum.

What can be done?
