While family, friends, and community are dismayed by this blatant racist police murder; the government officials \u00a0protect killer cops and subject our communities to murderous trigger-happy racists who do not protect and serve the people.\u00a0 The cops are only there to protect and serve the ruling class! Here in the Bay Area our families and youth embrace Andy Lopezand his family as one of our own. His murder is our loss and our experience here in Northern California in the black and brown communities is played out across the nation every 28 hours when cops kill one of our own.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In Vallejo the cops shot Mario Ramirez in his car outside his house.\u00a0 In Oakland Alan Blueford was hunted down by the racist thug officer Masso who shot himself in the leg and got away with the murder!\u00a0 We saw the cops shoot Oscar Grant in the back while unarmed and handcuffed and get away with it! They killed Kenneth Harding Jr. shooting him in the back for trying to ride the MUNI without paying his fare. Rahim Brown was killed by Oakland school cops for having a screwdriver in his car!\u00a0 The vigilante killing of Trayvon Martin enraged the nation and mobilized hundreds of thousands.\u00a0 But the racist killers the \u201cGang in Blue\u201d\u00a0 still patrol our communities and get away with murder! They must be removed from our streets!<\/p>\n<p>After seeing the cops get off in the killings of Oscar Grant, we saw no prosecutions for the killings of Kenneth Harding or Rahim Brown and George Zimmerman got off after hunting down Trayvon.\u00a0 We join the family and friends of Andy Lopez: WE Demand Justice!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We expect nothing from the bosses the racist cops or their courts; just more of the same. They are just fronts for the politicians and the capitalist-0.1% they all serve! Those institutions exist to keep us down not protect us! Only the multi-racial working class Labor \u00a0Black &amp; Brown mass mobilizations, united strike actions, self Defense Guards and multi-racial workers\u2019 Tribunals organized by the Labor movement can bring these racist murderers to justice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">\n<address class=\"mceTemp mceIEcenter\">\n<dl class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" id=\"attachment_867\" style=\"width:285px;\">\n<dt class=\"wp-caption-dt\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cwgusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/images-1.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-867\" alt=\" NY Daily News photo\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cwgusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/images-1.jpg?resize=275%2C183\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><\/dt>\n<dd class=\"wp-caption-dd\">\nNY Daily News photo<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/address>\n<p>Candle light vigils, police oversight commissions, \u2018progressive\u2019 politicians alongside the inter-faith religious leaders only serve to keep the community actions limited to the acceptable participation in the very system designed by the capitalists to keep the working class and oppressed community down. \u00a0WE NEED OUR OWN INSTITUTIONS TO GAIN JUSTICE!<\/p>\n<p>NO FAITH IN THE BOSSES COURTS!
