@alex_frostwolf Maybe @postmates?

@gregcohn fucking zoos.

Whether the dissent is inside on the witness stand or outside on the streets, grand juries are a weapon against resistance.

The state is using the Darren Wilson grand jury effectively as a secret trial to decide if Darren Wilson should even be indicted. #Ferguson

Secret laws.
Secret interpretations.
Secret courts.
Secret kill lists.

This is your government that you voted for.

Grand juries are just one of many weapons that the state uses to oppress dissent.

Participating in grand juries grants them legitimacy.

@mitchellh Amazing / hilarious / silly / amazing again!

In a grand jury witnesses cannot plead the fifth like in normal court. In a grand jury, you can be found in contempt and jailed for it.

@veganstraightedge (To clarify that last one, there is a record, but it's not public. The accused has access to their transcript though.)

@sammichfelge Thanks.

Grand juries are secret courts. No record. No observers. No defending attorney. Secrets all the way down.

@sammichfelge Annnd… never mind. I forgot that you're in PDX. :|

The animal right / eco-defense communities* have been on the business end of grand juries for decades.

* (one struggle one fight… right?)

Grand juries are a tool of state repression. They need to be resisted and dismantled.
