Montreal Graffiti Recalls Police Killings

"Montreal cops are investigating after anti-police graffiti started cropping-up about 3 days ago, accusing them of killing wantonly. Those behind the graffiti have also launched a website (www.flics-assassins.net) listing the names of people killed by police in the past 20 years, their ages and the date of death (43 starting with 19-year-old antony griffin in 1987 to 18-year-old fredy villanueva last summer). The graffiti shows the Montreal PD logo with a pistol painted over it.

The website claims to be the work of an anonymous group of Montrealers which says it's "outraged by police brutality and impunity."

The group says it's not affiliated with any particular organization, just "a modest part of ongoing efforts to counter the police offensive against our comunities, in support of grassroots initiatives.""
