Not exactly "anarchy" per se

Isn't this just siding with the bigger beast from that point of view?

Because ...

A group calling itself the New Orleans Anarchist Media Coalition took aim at the force on Monday, denouncing the NOPD for acting "unprofessionally, impulsively and with undue intimidation and force."

They made two demands:

First, for "full investigative powers" for the city's independent police monitor. As is, the police monitor only "oversees" internal investigations into alleged misconduct or the use of force.

Second, they want "the firing of any police officer who engages in or has been complicit to acts of murder, rape, harassment, beatings or any other abuses of their power."


Some rather draconian recommendations for an "anarchist" coalition, no?
