Was this shared by 1%-mouthpiece Fox News? Perhaps some other purveyor of Monopoly Capitalist lies, such as Glenn Beck?<br /><br />In Newark, NJ, where the People's Organization for Progress has sponsored the People's Daily Campaign for Jobs & Justice (our local Occupy! campaign) for more than 125 days, POP is also well know for organizing against police brutality and all state-sponsored terrorism directed at minority communities. <br /><br />In this context, it might help "Anoymous" understand these lies about "demonstrator violence" if I point out that Occupy Oakland has the highest percentage people-of-color participation of any Occupy! protest in the US outside, perhaps, Newark. <br /><br />In this country, the ruling elite (or their media spokespeople) can ALWAYS get away lying about the suppose violence of Black people.Rahim on the Dockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12153239186575137289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502187932910780823.post-79058292784904455712011-10-29T10:18:54.637-04:002011-10-29T10:18:54.637-04:00Lets get this in order, the OWS protesters at Oakl...Lets get this in order, the OWS protesters at Oakland attacked the cops with bricks, bottles and other such items. Where in the rules does it say that your not going to get hurt if you start being violent? It is amazing to me how the media and others have ignored the facts just to blame the cops!<br /><br />Highlander, <br />Cruachan!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
