According to the Washington Time<\/a>s, 300 Occupy Oakland protesters were arrested yesterday after they took over City hall and managed to burn a n American flag to make no rational point whatsoever;<\/p>\n

Saturday\u2019s protests \u2014 the most turbulent since Oakland police forcefully dismantled an Occupy encampment in November \u2014 came just days after the group said it planned to use a vacant building as a social center and political hub and threatened to try to shut down the port, occupy the airport and take over City Hall.<\/p>\n

Yeah, I’d be real proud to count myself in their 99%. A woman in the video says that police are being too heavy handed. I’d vehemently disagree.

An overnight in jail obviously isn’t influencing them, so throw away the key and give them an ass-whooping every morning for breakfast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
