police are making their move on Oakland OWS

[gristy]

Channel 2 broke into regularly scheduled programming. Tear gas, rubber bullets, bang-flash canisters.

1. Incredible to follow it via Twitter - seems like major news outlets

stopped transmitting live just prior to the tear gassing.....sounds like things are getting very rough out there.

some of the more informative streams coming from Joshua Holland, Alternet, BPGulfLeak - so many others too.

5. It really does go to show just how pathetic the Tea Party is. No threat to the man at all.

We've hit a nerve. There is no fucking way they're going to tolerate this.

JFK said it- "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.". I just hope for something short of the inevitable.
