6. I just watched the coverage the Lehrer Newshour gave this story.

I am still shaking with rage at the actions of the OPD.

If she is allowing the protestors back in, this can only be seen as capitulation.

[Ed Suspicious]

7. I don't know, my facebook is buzzing with sightings of

riot geared police staging up again. Maybe they're looking for another opportunity to crack some heads.

[Amonester]

19. crack some heads for what?

double the crowd of protesters the day after?

9. On her Facebook page she specified that it's only okay in the DAYTIME

:lol:

[Fire Walk With Me]

11. Good, because it's always daytime somewhere on Earth.

[flamingdem]

13. Ha ha! True. She's just lost control of things. She was too mumbly mouthed

:popcorn:

Should have negotiated when she had the upper hand.\\Now they have an intense marytr, a VET!

[Fire Walk With Me]

10. A Facebook page posts that #WallStreet are sending money and supplies to #Oakland!

We are all Scott Olsen
Final update for tonight, via Marcus: "A couple mins ago Occupy Wall St. met and reached consensus - $20k and 100 tents are on the way to Oakland. Spread the word! via Favianna Rodriguez."

[EFerrari]

14. Reports: Police in riot gear at the State building

on the other side of City Hall.

I don't think OPD will let this go. They are in a no winner and I bet they will strike anyway.

[nadinbrzezinski]

15. Ok I should not but I am laughing

at the mayor, not with the mayor.
