The Department of Corrections censors our letters with prisoners and throws away our literature we mail in. They're so desperate to keep control of this sick system and are unable to use logic to defeat us, that they resort to illegality.
The UMass Administration doesn't want us talking to our fellow students. Because attempting to defeat our ideas in public is too embarrassing for them -- they saw what happened when they said "Go away, students aren't ready for politics yet" -- they resort to sabotage. The University rips down our posters and actively conspires to suppress us.
We continually have to fight the censorship of the Federal and State government. With the aid of jailhouse lawyers, we fight censorship in the prisons. With the aid of leaked documents & information as well as their own rules, we fight University censorship. But we're still at a huge disadvantage because we are out-staffed and out-spent by the U.$. government, the Department of Corrections, the state government and its supporters.
Thanks to the anti-student policies of the University and Campus Center, it is hard enough to advertise our work. But what we don't need is students going out of their way to rip down our posters and throw away our newspapers!
It's clear that the University and the Government doesn't have anything to say beyond "Shut up" and "Go away". We think that students who disagree with us can perhaps do better.
Got something to say to RAIL? Say it. We do get proven wrong and make changes all the time. Better yet, say it in public. Put up your own ideas on posters. Or let's debate. We'll debate anyone on any topic in any fair forum. We'll reserve the room, and then we can both invite the public to see our ideas compete.
RAIL isn't afraid to defend its ideas. Are you afraid to defend yours? Is that why you rip down our work and throw out our newspapers?
