Berlin, Germany: Molotov cocktail attack on police station in Tiergarten district
Some see an injustice in the institutions of the executive. Here, the officers hit a left-wing sit-in too hard in order to allow a right-wing march to pass, there they would act too gently against lateral thinkers, migrants would be deported to “unsafe” countries of origin, and if an officer’s trigger leads to death, he should be brought to court for his irregular actions, since he must have acted out of personal rather than professional motivation.
It is this attitude that sees the police as a more or less neutral hinge between rebellious forces in society and those who strive to live in a peaceful, democratic and tolerant agreement. It is this attitude that imagines itself morally on the side of the good and innocent and ignores structural differences and privileges, which could be the reason why the cudgel is rarely aimed at their heads. This attitude leads to the abstruse reproach to the police squad: “Where were you in Hanau?”. This attitude represents a distrust of the individual, who could not live in a society with others without authority and the threat of repression. It is this attitude that makes you wonder if you won’t dial 110 in an emergency? It is this attitude that makes the narrative of the individual case possible.
It is this attitude that asserts that violence against the police is violence against people like you and me. This attitude allows the uniform or badge to be seen as a garment, an occupational utensil, rather than a globally legitimized expression of a function.
Cops all over the world have the function to detect the smallest rebellion against the system of capital, against the system of patriarchy, to press it into the logic of criminal law (i.e. to present it as non-political), to discredit it and to appropriate it. In the struggle for interpretive sovereignty, their goal is to control and crush this rebellion, with visible or subtle violence, depending on the balance of power and the form of government.
In this sense, the system of subjugating every element of our lives to the standard of norming and hierarchization according to property, body, religion, gender, origin, and attitude that prevails everywhere is manifested.
Their use cannot be judged in the categories of unjust or unjustified. The institutionalization of the police has never been about justice. The police are a system of domination and any narrative of humanity behind the uniform serves only to obscure social conditions.

Czech Republic: Explosion and Fire in Response to Police Murder of Stanislav Tomáš
Explosion and fire in the comfort zone of the rich
The police protect the rich. They defend their power and property they have because they exploit workers.
Police acts hard against poor people. He holds them with violence and his threat in obedience and poverty. Some also kills. Like Stanislav Tomáš in Teplice.
Inside the comfort zone of the riches, on the outskirts of Teplice, 12. 7. 2021 intentionally established fire. This morning, snaps in the villas awakened small explosions and flames.
This is anger directed against the rich and their police security guard.
This is a restlessness that is provoked by police brutality.
This is a nightmare that disrupts their sleep.
Police is a global gang terrorizing poor and uprooted population. But all over the world also comes inspiring responses against their brutality. In Portland, Chile, Bremen, Brussels, Mexico, Athens, Kiev, France, Berlin, New York, Bristol, Patras, USA …
The resistance is everywhere, where there is police violence. Now also in Teplice.

Netherlands: Revolutionary Resistance is taking responsibility for the bombing of the police cars in Gemert
THIS IS THE ACT OF REVOLUTIONARY SELF-DEFENSE OF PROLETARIAT.
THIS IS THE REVOLUTIONARY ANGER OF OPPRESSED.
On July 15 around 3:30AM we used a bomb against police cars in Gemert. We are oppressed but we don’t victimize ourselves, we act from the position of power against the state’s repression. In this neoliberal world, there is no safety for proletariat. So let’s take away the safety from the state as well, in the big cities and small villages.
We do this in solidarity with undocumented proletariat who are holding the hunger strike in Brussels, Belgium. As an armed hand of working class, we have a duty to return the violence to the state. The undocumented proletariat in Brussels must receive legal papers. We call our movement to express more public solidarity with them.
