Mayor Quan of Oakland has to lock her Facebook Page! You can't post to it only comment?
Go to her facebook page and let Mayor Quan know what you think of her and her police brutality: Shooting Iraqi war vets in the face with tear gas canisters.

Tell her how she is actually helping the movement. Tell her how we won't forget.
Demand that she resigns.
And tell her that we want her brought up on criminal charges.
My comment was one of 8901

Joe Basile You're a coward, Mayor Quan. And let's be clear: that man's blood IS ON YOUR HANDS.

Cornelia Benavidez I know that this may seem like these protesters are just taking an opportunity to mouth off and maybe some are. yet still, what is driving this all over the country is so much bigger. I have been care taking my hearing impaired cancer survior husband who is still managing to work but cannot even buy health insurance for me. Our child is struggling to stay in gradschool because she cannot find work. This is not the America I grew up in. Things have to change not just for us but also for people worldwide.

Rick Murphy Jean, you know your statement regarding the dispersal of the protesters is ridiculous, you know that you made a mistake, you know that your police department made a mistake. You cant take it back now, but I urge you, dont continue down the path of defending these actions. Own up to your mistake and people will respect you more for it, show that you have character, and are a human being. It may be the last chance to save your political career, but really, either way thats probably over now. So, meditate on it, the decision you made hurt people, it did not help people, apologize and show you are capable of admitting a mistake and willing to try to make things right.

4. i posted
"Prosecute Jean Quan and the Oakland police and have 'em in prison with Oakland gang members!"

And many Facebook pages don't have open walls. I've never seen Quan's FB before the police standoff, and I think that Quan always restricted comments to posts.

8. I sent emails to the mayor and city administrator
I expressed my extreme disappointment and sadness that they came down with heavy violence on peaceful protestors. I asked, "When you start with heavy handed violence, where do you go from there"? Snipers? Outright killing people?

I signed my name and they have my email addy in case they want to get back to me about that.
