What Occupy UC Davis is saying,..to alumni and corporate sponsors.
Edited on Sun Nov-20-11 04:58 PM by Stuart G
Pass this one on..to those intended..

While John Pike is not delineated as a possible defendant, Occupy UC Davis issued a news statement late yesterday that a lawsuit is imminent. Injured protesters reportedly met swiftly with civil rights attorneys, have reportedly retained counsel, and are seeking to pursue two possible defendants. Occupy UC Davis reports “Protesters will be engaging civil rights attorneys to pursue legal action against the University and City of Davis for excessive force and for violating their civil and constitutional rights.”

The Lt John Pike pepper spray scandal has drawn international outrage from the Occupy movement. But Occupy UC Davis is telling supports that letters to UC Davis Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi are ineffective. Rather organizers are asking donors to cut future donations to the UC Davis......................

What Occupy UC Davis recommends,



“If you are an alumni or corporate sponsor, don’t write the UCD police or just Katehi. Strike fear in their hearts and pledge never to donate a dime to UC Davis, and to contact your classmates to encourage them to do the same.”

Organizers are telling supporters to inform the University that donations should be halted swiftly. “Tell Shaun Keister, Vice Chancellor for Development and Alumni Relations (sbkeister@ucdavis.edu) that she won’t see a red cent of your money until Officer Pike is off the payroll and Katehi is gone. CC Katehi, of course. It’s just polite to let her know.”

The above story is from this link:
