I think i've come to terms with using anger at police over-reaction as a motivating factor to build the movement. It's not ideal, i'd prefer it if people were motivated by the urgency of the issues to take direct action. However I think this is actually quite a large jump from 'normal' conciousness. I think a general feeling of disobedience from dissatisfaction with the actions of the state and corporations is a good intermediate stage, and to discover that the police aren't dixon of dock green must surely be something that can help with that move.

It's our responsibility to have the real issues available in digestable form for these people so they can decide where they might best put their efforts after the initial rage has died down.
