Earlier today on the streets of Oakland.
Occupy Oakland protestors were shot on by tear gas, rubber bullets, smoke bombs, kettled. There was no way out, so they ran through a fence, reached Broadway, took a right, marched down Broadway, and then they were kettled at YMCA. No one was trying to occupy YMCA, and were not given a disperse order, they were just told over the loud speak to not resist arrest.
They are now singing solidarity together.
Approx. 150 protesters in zip ties.
Silly citizens, rights are for corporations!
Eye witnesses say that 500 riot police dismantled Occupy Oakland early this morning using tear gas, rubber bullets, a helicopter, a military device called an LRAD sonic canon, and flash grenades. There have been several reports of injuries to protestors.
