“Why the hell aren’t they standing in front of a bank all day every day, jamming the engines? No no, we’re gonna tear up city hall, we’re gonna tear up whatever." Soul speaking on Occupy and Oakland at the "Stand WIth Oakland” anti-OO rally on Monday afternoon, February 5.
Oakland Police Department media advisory sent three and a half hours before the beginning of this week’s Fuck the Police march, where, according to social media sites, protesters plan to bring brooms and other cleaning products and have vowed to use non-violent tactics. Should be interesting.
And if there is a PIO in the field, maybe I won’t be arrested this time?
“We are the water, watch us boil, kettle kettle kettle kettle.”
Listen to this while reading my J28 report at the Guardian.
Some of the choice audio from my latest arrest at Occupy Oakland (ugh). There are two clearly marked edits, made to compress for the good stuff.
From last week’s Occupy Oakland “Fuck the Police” march. Or, as the Oakland Police Department likes to call it, “FTP.”
