Re: Police fire on Occupy Oakland protesters.
I want to add to the main topic of the thread something that was a hot topic at our recent meetings, here: There are increasing accusations that the "anarchists" that showed up in Oakland had police issue boots on, and moved in units once things went to pot.
Even here in boring old Idaho, we're dealing with attempts by previously uninvolved people to come in and hijack the group, leading it in a more violent direction that is NOT part of the nonviolence people have been committed to, and there is currently an effort underway to "out" those people, working with legitimate law enforcement contacts.
