"Whose world? Our World!" Occupy Oakland right before the attack
Notice that everyone in this crowd looks so glum.

And then the retaliation - for being members of a nation where supposedly democratic actions are to be respected. I mean, we saw Hillary Clinton almost in tears over people in Egypt and Libya turning against their one percent.

3. It has a hopper like a paintball gun, but it's probably holding the rubber bullets.
At least, that's my guess.

5. Thanks for the information, speculative though it is.

We need to share what we know, because we cannot trust the police spokespeople to tell us the Truth.

I'd know a lot more, if I had continued to watch this program on the History channel about new, non-lethal weaponry. (I think the program was on twice a week, maybe three years ago.)

But the weaponry was so scary that I couldn't bring myself to watch the program too often. Especially knowing that it would all be used against us, the populace at some point.

And that some point is now!

4. They must be so proud of the OPD's brutality on peaceful protesters and on an Iraq Vet.
