Subject: Gotta read... This was dated 07-17-2005 At the recent National
Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) conference in Alabama, the delegation in
attendance vote unanimously to begin a boycott of persons, products and
companies associated with the supporting of convicted cop killer Mumia
Abu-Jamal.

In case you don't know, he was convicted in the 1981 killing of
Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner.

The act was an especially brutal and sadistic murder that still haunts
the family, friends and coworkers of Officer Faulkner. ("The New York
Shields" presented Officer Faulkner's family a Medal of Valor at their
1999 Police Memorial Breakfast).
Convict Abu-Jamal has written a book, "Live from Death Row," and
attempted to place himself in a celebrity status as a result of his
CRIMINAL behavior. Others have supported his pathetic attempt to gain
stardom and freedom, all the while spitting in the face of Officer
Faulkner, his family and every single law enforcement officer in the
United States. The F. O. P. has announced the formal boycotting of the
following:

1. Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Products (donators to a defense fund for the
killer).

2. Actor Paul Newman, and his products (an outspoken supporter of the
killer).

3. Actress Susan Sarandon (supporter of this convicted killer).

4. Filmmakers Spike Lee, Oliver Stone and John Landis supporters of the
killer).

5. Writers Norman Mailer and Joyce Carol Oates (supporters of the
killer).

6. Supermodel Naomi Campbell (supporter of the killer).

7. Musicians Sting, Rage Against the Machine, Beasty Boys, David Byrne
and Michael Stipe of REM, supporters of the killer).

8. The Backstreet Boys who are performing "free" benefit concerts for
the killer's defense fund. One of their "benefit concerts" scheduled for
Baltimore, MD had to be canceled when Baltimore police officers refused
to work the overtime shifts for security at the concert.

As you may not know, a tape recorded statement made by this heinous
convicted killer, was played at the graduation commencement ceremony of
Evergreen State College in the state of Washington in June 1999. This
resulted in over 800 graduates walking out and another two dozen turning
their backs during the killer's three minute diatribe of

The F.O.P.'s position is getting widespread coverage in the media, as
well it should. The members of the New York Shields stand with our
fellow brothers across this country in strongly supporting this boycott
and honoring the memory of Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner.

We urge you to participate in this boycott and request that you pass
this e-mail on to your coworkers, partners, family and friends. We must
stand together against this brutal murderer.

Please do your part and pass this important message along to your
friends.
Call your local grocer and tell them about Ben & Jerry's support of a
cop killer.
Do your part please, you can make a difference

There is no "nice" way to arrest a potentially dangerous, combative
suspect.
The police are our bodyguards, our hired fists, batons and guns. We pay
them to do the dirty work of protecting us, the work we're too afraid,
too unskilled or too civilized to do ourselves. We expect them to keep
the bad guys out of our businesses, cars and houses, out of our face. We
want them to "take care of the problem." We just don't want to see how
its done.

One of the first things necessary in order to create the marxist state is to break apart law and order. Of course these useful idiots have no real understanding of the big picture and those who are truly concerned with social justice care about the unborn baby, women and children being abused through out the world, blacks in third world countries and the list goes on. These people really care more about a state of mind, the state of feeling as though they are do gooders as opposed to opening their eyes and truly caring for the oppressed.

I do not think people such as Susan actually want people in the third world to die, although her silly ignorant actions do promote social injustice the world over. How long do you think the UN could continue its sex slavetrade operations if everyone in Hollywood came out against it?

Of that list of names the only truly dangerous person who I believe understands the lefts intent would be Norman Mailer. The rest are useful idiots to be sure, but in the long term absolute zeros. Noone will remember Susan the day after she dies. I think of David Horowitz epiphany at his communist fathers funeral that he had no friends. They could all speak of the mans ideology and belief in the marxist dream, yet not one of them knew the man as a human being. Like horses drawing a carriage down a long road with shutters shielding the eyes from everything but the dream that lie ahead.
