It would seem that the angry rabble of Bolsheviks and vanguard anarchists she cynically welcomed into her city with open arms have turned against the good interests of law and order and started to become an actual nuisance.<\/p>\n<p>In November of 2011:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The pro-99 percent activists &#8212; whose cause I support &#8212; will have the freedom to get their message across without the conflict that marred last week&#8217;s events,&#8221; Quan said. &#8220;Although getting the balance right is never an easy task, in Oakland we are committed to honoring free speech and protecting public safety.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Police are upset that they were asked to clear the protesters&#8217; encampment a week ago, only to have the mayor let the camp resume a day later. The raid last Tuesday, along with the tear gas-clouded standoff with marchers that night and other law enforcement actions related to the protest, cost Oakland $1 million, said Sgt. Dom Arotzarena, president of the Oakland police union.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.csmonitor.com\/USA\/Latest-News-Wires\/2012\/0129\/Occupy-Oakland-damage-assessed-after-protesters-break-into-City-Hall\">Fast forward to today:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Officials assessed damage to City Hall caused by Occupy Oakland protesters while leaders of the movement claimed Sunday that police acted illegally in arresting hundreds of demonstrators and could face a lawsuit.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Jean Quan was among those inspecting damage caused after dozens of people broke into City Hall on Saturday, smashing glass display cases, spray-painting graffiti, and burning an American flag.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Quan, who faced heavy criticism for the police action last fall, on Saturday called on the Occupy movement to &#8220;stop using Oakland as its playground.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People in the community and people in the Occupy movement have to stop making excuses for this behavior,&#8221; Quan said.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, Quan said she is tired of the protesters&#8217; repeated actions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m mostly frustrated because it appears that most of them constantly come from outside of Oakland,&#8221; Quan said. &#8220;I think a lot of the young people who come to these demonstrations think they&#8217;re being revolutionary when they&#8217;re really hurting the people they claim that they are representing.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>For all her gross ineptitude Quan&#8217;s understanding of the nature of the protesters is not without merit. The self-perpetuating unionized bureaucrats, New Left remnants and petty bourgeoisie Progressives from San Francisco, Berkeley and other far left enclaves in the Bay Area make the pilgrimage into working class Oakland in order to raise their banners and riot. They can&#8217;t be asked to burn down their organic farmer&#8217;s market or fair trade cafes so they trash Oakland in the name of social justice and economic equality.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s along this vein of thought I&#8217;d bring your attention to Dr. Robert Ovetz. Now you should know that Ovetz, a Bay area community college teacher, is so important that <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Special:Contributions\/Robertovetz\">he feels the need to write<\/a> his own <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Robert_Ovetz\">wikipedia article<\/a> to let you know as much. Heady stuff.<\/p>\n<p>When he&#8217;s not engaged in the self-aggrandizement facilitated by Web 2.0 he&#8217;s running hilariously <a href=\"http:\/\/robertovetz2011.blogspot.com\/\">comedic campaigns for school boards<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_embedded&#038;v=AQ0q4rUd5Do#!\">solemnly interviewing<\/a> disgraced Marxist &#8220;Economists&#8221; about why capitalism is in its death throws. Hilarity for the extremely bored starts at around 6:48 as said idiot attempts to fumble through Businesses 101.<\/p>\n<p>Well, our tax payer funded left wing hero and Occupy gadfly managed to rouse himself from Marin County to assault an Oakland Police officer. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, on Monday, Ovetz was arrested for &#8220;suspicion of misdemeanor assault and assault on a police officer&#8221;. Yet if you check <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/cgi-bin\/article.cgi?f=\/c\/a\/2012\/01\/30\/BAPQ1N0G9K.DTL\">that article<\/a> today and you won&#8217;t find Ovetz&#8217;s name anywhere, it&#8217;s been totally scrubbed. <\/p>\n<p>Why would the SF Chronicle remove the name of a professor of left wing extremist tendencies who came down to Oakland and was then charged with attacking a cop? The SF Chronicle has had the courage to call a spade a spade in the past, why not now? I have a request into the Chronicle now and I&#8217;ll let your know when I find out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update:<\/strong> Just a cursory search demonstrates that this rabbit hole <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/cgi-bin\/article.cgi?f=\/c\/a\/2007\/01\/04\/BAG31NCF5E1.DTL\">is deep indeed<\/a>.
