we need as many people as possible to call in to the jails and ask that the Sunshine Swallers and John Nocella be processed as quickly as possible. they have no food to eat as the jails are not prepared to provide a vegan diet and have claimed that they " are not responsible for their (he prisoners') choice of diet. We (the jail) give them food and they can decide to eat it or not". please call the Macawa jail and ask that Sunshine Swallers (prisoner id 1821231) be released on a PR bond (personal reconnaissance bond) at 713 731-5300. also call the city jail at 713 247-5400 and ask the same for John Nocella (prisoner id 1821226). stress that a quick release is especially important because they are not feeding them. the two detainees will not accept a regular bonding because they won't give money to the state, so the PR bond is the only remaining avenue. The Macawa jail has been particularly hostile about these requests and is looking to send sunshine to county jail where her stay will be greatly extended. please take a moment to help Sunshine and John in their efforts to protest the war.
