Oakland's Quisling Quan shows she's still a worthless subhuman excuse for a "progressive."

Remember her response to Occupy?

Mayor Jean Quan Confirms Her Status as an Asshole.

On December 12th, 2011, Mayor Jean Quan of Oakland, California told 10,000 totally peaceful protesters that they were committing "economic violence."

Months later, instead of offering sympathy and promises of a full and fair investigation, Jean Quan made another stunning pronouncement. This time to Adam and Jeralyn Blueford, not long after their son had been executed by an Oakland Police Officer on May 6th, 2012. She said

"You're probably going to sue me, right?"

Now she's at it again.

Scott Olsen, the Occupy Oakland protester and Iraq War veteran who suffered brain injuries after police shot a tear gas canister at his head, says Oakland Mayor Jean told him he had "a chip on his shoulder" at the conclusion of Wednesday night's community meeting on public safety.

The same Scott Olsen who received a quilt from Daily Kos peeps? The Scott Olsen who selflessly helped stage a protest in support of Bradley Manning this summer? The Scott Olsen who stood in peaceful protest beside his buddy on October 25th, 2011, nearly losing his life as a result of actions by Quan's thugs? HE HAS A CHIP ON HIS SHOULDER??

1. Recall her ass

[eShirl]

2. and describing any human being as a "worthless subhuman" is so very progressive

[HiPointDem]

3. what would you prefer? The woman ordered the police actions that caused brain injury to this vet

she is telling has a 'chip on his shoulder'.

i think it's kind of subhuman.

[eShirl]

5. really? are you stumped?

don't bother replying, I'm hiding this ugly thread

[HiPointDem]

6. I think it's pretty ugly to tell the person whose brain injuries you caused that he has a chip on

his shoulder, personally.

If politicians want to send troops to shut down peaceful protest with violence, I guess they can take the heat of being called a few names.

Oakland officials caught in lies about attacking Occupy

http://occupyobservations.blogspot.com/2012/01/oakland-officials-caught-in-lies-about.html

I follow several Occupy Oakland members on Twitter and I've seen the continuous flow of information and video including and since their Occupy encampment, and Quan, Jordan, and the rest are trash who barricade themselves from the people (who have no hesitation to show up in council chambers and speak the truth). Democracy means "the voice and will of the people" and Quan and friends come nowhere near it. OPD are brutal and out-of-control and racist and JUSTICE FOR ALAN BLUEFORD!

8. As much as I respect the outrage expressed, calling her "a piece of shit" or "subhuman" demeans your

argument.

She is not "a piece of shit", nor is she "subhuman". And her actions, as described, are nowhere in the realm of Nazi collaboration, which is what "quisling" means.

I understand that the language is intended to convey outrage. But respectfully, you are undermining your own points.

Also, Jean Quan does not control the OPD, as is well-known to anyone familiar with Oakland police politics. In fact, it is one of the main complaints of Oakland citizens against her, so referring to them as "Quan's thugs" is just at basic variance with the facts.


I stand with Scott Olsen, with the Bluefords, and with the family of Oscar Grant. Their causes should be fought with the impeccability they are worthy of.
