Around 9:30 p.m. Friday night, some demonstrators broke away from an Occupy Oakland protest march and smashed the windows of the campaign office on Telegraph Avenue. They were protesting a police shooting that took the life of an 18-year-old high school student in May. - There was no word Saturday morning on how many, if any, were arrested. Some shouted "leave marijuana alone," apparently opposing the recent federal crackdown on pot clubs. - [link to www.ktvu.com] |

There was real change on the horizon until the masses fell into their same old partisan BS. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2584872 I agree. They should get together to fight the 1%, but the tea partiers were conned into supporting the elite and corporations, like they still do like good sheep. |

Police kept their distance tonight, though, as the dance-protest roved up and down the streets, with demonstrators chatting “fuck the police” between songs. Many bystanders cheered when they saw the “Fuck the Police” banner as the dance party approached. Residents of Oakland are still outraged over the police murder of 21-year-old Oscar Grant, who was shot by a transit officer in a crowded BART station on New Year's Day in 2009. The transit officer, Johannes Mehserle, was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in July 2010, despite publicly released videos showing Mehserle pinning Grant to the ground before shooting him in the back. - Last Friday, several hundred Oaklanders marched in solidarity with the growing Anaheim police resistance movement, and a window was broken at a bar where police officers are known to drink. During tonight’s roving dance party, as demonstrators passed 19th and Telegraph Ave, a large section of the fence surrounding the former site of Occupy Oakland was pulled down. Many still remember the police raids of Occupy last fall, when protestors were beaten, tear-gassed, and had their belongings destroyed by police. - [link to www.indybay.org] |

They serve corporations now. All media and politicians. They count on you/us to fight amongst ourselves. (OP) You need to understand, there IS a fundamental difference on how both sides SEE THE WORLD... Yes, we know both party's dance to the same puppet master. But there is a difference between Gay Marriage and traditional marriage. Between slaughtering baby's or letting them live...etc. It's a relevant argument. |

While you/we argue and fuss about these, they steal our country. Instead of eating GMO chicken sandwiches and worrying about gays (which is really silly, imo), and mocking those in the streets trying to DO something, maybe join to defeat the REAL owners of us slaves. Thats what we will soon become. Slaves to corporations. |

I'm surprised it hasn't happened before now," she said. "Oakland is a place where people are really struggling. When the pressure is released just a little bit, you see people go after those things that they see as responsible for the conditions." Read more: [link to www.sfgate.com] |

I we all join in what is common purpose, we can rout the corporate criminals and corrupt politicians. I should note, I think the Blac Bloc (not occupy) did this. Those guys are suspicious and I suspect they are there as agent provocateurs. They show up in black disguise, and some have been exposed as COPS. |
