| | Comments (0)

As part of ongoing resistance and organizing in opposition to the construction of I-69--the so-called "NAFTA Super Highway"--in Indiana, a group from Evansville, Indiana has called for solidarity phone and fax actions to compliment organizing in Indiana:

For the Animals, for the Earth and for the people, River City Animal Defense League presents: Operation Road Rage.

First Target: Gohmann Asphalt and Construction, Inc.

Gohmann Asphalt and Construction, Inc. is a disgusting company that has decided to proceed with business in the construction of Interstate-69 (I-69) which is the North American Free Trade Agreement's (NAFTA) superhighway.

Since River City Animal Defense League's public debut on May 19th, 2008 when we took to the neighborhoods, and more specifically the houses of executives and contractors of Gohmann Asphalt and Construction, Inc. the fight has continued against Gohmann Asphalt and Construction until they drop I-69. Home demos, office demos, office lock-downs and flooding their phone lines are some of the actions that have been taken against Gohmann Asphalt and Construction.

River City Animal Defense League is calling on everyone across the Turtle Island and around the world to do what you can to take action against Gohmann Asphalt and Construction, Inc. and stop I-69.

Flood their phones! Flood their faxes!

River City Animal Defense League is calling for planned weekly phone and fax flooding against Gohmann Asphalt and Construction, Inc.

Gohmann Asphalt & Construction, Inc.

Phone number: 1-812-282-1349 Fax number: 1-812-288-2168

Begin flooding their lines at the end of their work day starting at 4PM Eastern Standard Time / 1PM Pacific Standard Time until their offices close. Never let them rest. Never let them forget that we will never back down and we will stop this road.

Thursday, July 3rd: Wish Gohmann Asphalt & Construction, Inc. the worst 4th of July (the so called Independence Day of the stolen lands known as the United States of America) of their lives.

Friday, July 11th: Keep calling. Keep faxing. Don't let them go home happy for the weekend. No rest for the wicked!

Friday, July 18th: Flood their faxes! Flood their phones! We will never let Gohmann Asphalt and Construction build this road!

Friday, July 25th: For the animals we will fight! Gohmann A & C we know where you sleep at night! We will never back down until you drop I-69!

Starting Thursday, July 3rd, 2008 at 4PM Eastern Time / 1 PM Pacific Time let the flooding begin until Gohmann Asphalt & Construction drops I-69!

KEEP CALLING UNTIL YOU GET THROUGH!

With Love and Liberation,
River City Animal Defense League"
