Subject: Anarchists' Rally Turns Into Anarchy


Here's an example of why I think it may be pointless to try and educate
the capitalist press about anarchism. We should focus instead on
supporting alternatives to the boss press.

  (EUGENE) -- A rally by self-proclaimed anarchists in Eugene gets out
of control... to the point of anarchy. Friday's rally was one of several
organized nationally against capitalism. Protesters in Eugene were also
opposed to the proliferation of downtown businesses. The rally started
peacefully enough, but protesters and police began reacting to
escalating incidents. Police eventually turned out in riot gear. Some of
the protesters left the scene when officers arrived, but others threw
rocks at businesses, intimidated motorists, and blocked streets.
