EXPELLED A FAMILY DURING PROCEDURE ! ---- The Asatryan family, an Armenian family who left 
his country to escape political violence exercised against him and was under an obligation 
to leave the territory since April , was arrested Thursday morning. The father, aged 53 , 
and her daughters, students 26 and 28 years, were housed at 77 rue Anatole France , in the 
property made ??available following the crisis of the Emergency Accommodation in 
September. The intervention of the police was violent . The father was handcuffed because 
a policeman was injured , thrown against a fence. The family was taken to the detention 
center of Lyon. But the evil sandstone recourse with a Judge of Liberties , through which 
the family could have stopped succeed , ie stay here, the authorities took them directly 
to the Saint- Exup?ry airport in Lyon this Friday morning following the arrest .

This family has been expelled while all his appeals were not
yet been exhausted. When it suits the state tramples its own laws ...

CLERMONT F ERRAND BETWEEN HOUSING CRISIS AND RACISM OF STATE

During the month of September Clermont -Ferrand saw a camp set up on the place Jaude due 
to crisis emergency accommodation .

360 people , including many undocumented applicant -s- es -seekers , were left homeless .
These homeless had taken refuge in a church, but a fire forced the criminal origin -e to 
return to the streets at 4am Tuesday, September 3 . We have no information on the outcome 
of the investigation.

Homeless , activist networks and Clermont were mobilized to respond to the most urgent 
health needs by installing an encampment on the steps of the church.

The prefecture had refused to requisition empty slots (there are about 7500 in Clermont 
-Ferrand ) , which is the only and the best solution. The authorities suppressed the 
movement , September 13 , under the pretext of a routine identity check , the violent 
eviction of the camp causing bodily harm and an aggressive and arbitrary arrest was made 
by the CRS . An activist was arrested , she goes to trial Nov. 27 . The expulsion of the 
camp also begat destruction shared by men and women solidarity property. In this case, the 
only obsession authorities ( municipality and prefecture hand in hand ) was to "cleanse" 
the place ...
The prefecture has decided to relaunch the system expensive hotels for emergency instead 
of adopting the cheapest we proposed the most humane solution and additional accommodation .
The strategy is simple , it aims to leave no respite to men and women so that they never 
feel at home / while accusing expensive cost while all studies on the subject shows that 
this is false.

Do not let Clermont-Ferrand be the scene of such injustice ! The government denies the 
common sense solutions and slap on the undocumented . He uses them to distract attention 
from the only real issue : the distribution of wealth . As libertarians we denounce the 
manipulation of public opinion and realities , as responsible for the crisis , it is the 
bankers , shareholders , management and policy !

Hunting immigrants and job insecurity have only one goal: we resolve to fatalism , we do 
believe that this world can not change . The ruling class wants us to accept us, the 
people, living conditions harder , it seeks to make us feel guilty , it seeks to punish 
those who strive for an egalitarian society. She wants us to swallow that capitalism is 
viable when it is not .

The ruling class want to strengthen the operation and use every stratagem to divide the 
working class .

FACE TO RACISM : NOT GOOD FEELINGS BUT SOCIAL STRUGGLES IN THE FIELD !

Policies, laws and practices racism of all kinds appear so uninhibited and are predominant 
in the surrounding discourse. Far from being the result of chance , racist and fascist 
political minds develop through social regression , lack of hope and ensuing 
opportunities. Therefore, the fight against racism , to be effective , can not be limited 
to demonstrations simply humanists. We must take stock of this moral racism which in 25 
years has not stopped to take us to the current situation. To be effective, we believe 
that racism must incorporate the social dimension in the analysis grid to show that our 
real enemy - es are not the most vulnerable among us ( the immigrant es ) but our 
exploiters. The fight must be waged on the social front by developing class solidarities .

S OLIDARITY WITH WITHOUT PAPERS : ADJUSTMENT OF ALL
PEOPLE WITHOUT PAPERS , FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT AND INSTALLATION !

In Clermont -Ferrand as elsewhere so the situation is deteriorating more and more: 
regularization down , refusal to collective custody records, laws limiting home 
opportunities and facilitating expulsions.

The system now attempts to do this underclass that are growing immigrant : undocumented 
therefore without right, and they are hyper - precarious es , es overexploited to work and 
lead a life always in the discount threat of arrest and deportation . Far from being 
profiteers of the system, they are victims like us but much more pronounced way : the 
struggles of the social field should be based on solidarity is practical and effective .

Do not forget that the state now applies to undocumented migrants can apply to any -s 
tomorrow if we allow these practices to normalize. Because immigration law is in constant 
decline , we must build a popular mass movement for the regularization of all undocumented 
persons and freedom of movement and settlement .

P OUR WORLD EQUALITY RID OF BORDERS

Es some argue that these claims are not realistic. They are right, in a system based on 
inequality and competition between states and individuals: borders and controlling 
migration flows are tools of economic warfare used by States for their respective 
bourgeoisies . National sentiment is created for public support to this system when they 
have an interest in developing international solidarity operated es .

We believe practicable and especially necessary to live in an egalitarian society without 
hierarchy where decisions are made collectively , without borders because they generate 
false oppositions . Easier said than done? Certainly. But not impossible! The revolutions 
in the Arab world or the self-managing resistance in countries such as Greece , Argentina 
and Mexico show us that there is no fortress that we can not break down ! Against 
capitalism , not inevitable ! We must fight to regain our lives in hand. The documentary " 
Do not live like slaves " and "The Take" (visible on the internet for free ) provide an 
overview .

THE ENEMY IS NOT CAPITALISM ABROAD !
NI NIF RONTI?RES NATION, FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT ,
ABOLITION OF CENTRES OF RETENTION !
