#FreeBopha

Hip-hop artists are oft portrayed as villains by themselves and the 4th branch. Eminem has played on his bad-boy visage to sell millions of tapes. Lil Wayne, aka Weezy F. Baby don't forget the baby, has been kidnapped by Johnny Law for daring to try to buy non-politicallycorrect arms and dabbling in doobies from south of the border. T.I., Atlanta's monarch, has been kidnapped for like reasons. Lil Boosie has been thrown into the cages for the alleged hit-man ordered murder of a man. In response to their favorite rappers being caged, fanatics become activists. They start free movements. They make signs, wear t-shirts, and trend hashtags of #FreeSoandSo. These rappers are now free. Whether the activism of their disciples was the main factor, or not, I do not know. But, I think their grassroots free movements help. I find the kidnapping of rappers alarming, but I am more concerned about the kidnapping of protesters whose only listed crime is being the victim of land theft by the State and being bold enough to talk about it. I'm talking about the peaceful Cambodian land-rights advocate Yorm Bopha. #FreeBopha

Yorm Bopha sits, sleeps, and urinates under the dominion of the Cambodian State. She is the State's kidnapee. Her daily view includes a main dish of metal bars with a side order of musty roommates. They say mock trial is great preparation for middle and high school students to learn about the real world. Whoever they are, they are right. Bopha was put through a mock trial a few days ago.

"On March 27, 2013, the Cambodian Supreme Court denied bail to Yorm Bopha, who was imprisoned in December 2012 after receiving a three-year sentence on  apparently politically motivated charges for protesting government land grabs that have adversely affected 700,000 Cambodians" says the Human Rights Watch.*

Speaking is not grounds for kidnapping. At least in the moral realm it is not. Follow the money. Follow the money. A familiar mantra to American ears. So, let's follow the money. Where there are people being exiled from their land by the State, there will be a tale of privilege. This is crony-capitalism, or corporatism. Our enemy, the State, selects a target she deems weak enough to steal from and a friend that would willingly accept the target's resources. The friend is usually a donor who keeps the local commissars' election money growing. The Commissars gain the privilege of governance, and the corporations gain the privilege of stolen resources. Now the Human Rights Watch will fill out my formula for me

Bopha, 29, is one of the leaders of long-term protests against illegal evictions of residents of the Boeung Kak area of Phnom Penh by a Chinese company and a local firm closely linked to Prime Minister Hun Sen.

Pay attention to this formula. This formula separates the vulgar libertarians from the market anarchists. The vulgar libertarians, often conservatives wanting to use a more hip label, limit this kritik to farm and sugar subsidies. However, it applies to any State sponsored bridge building, highway leasing, dam constructing, green converting, tariff raising, weapons contracting, henchmen hiring or court establishing. We should not be lukewarm in our opposition to privilege handouts. We should either be cold, or hot. To be cold is to support the State in its edification of corporate privilege. To be hot is to oppose corporate privilege from every angle it can be measured by. I am hot.

Hotness is applicable to sighting the methodology of the State. Her methods include the initiation of violence, always and everywhere. While monitoring the Gambellan case, I noted our enemy's usual tools. Her Cambodian branch is no different. Humans who are trying to inform others about the injustice of land theft, have the bloodhounds sent after them.

They were assaulted by a mixed force of police, gendarmes, and security guards, who severely beat several protesters, including Sakhon.
