“The Oakland Police were recently court ordered to report their actions to a federally approved overseer. If the cops don’t keep their violence in check, the judge will put the department under federal administration. I couldn’t help but wonder if the department just decided to give a big screw you to the judge and take their brutality to the next level. Whether the action of Occupy Oakland was right or wrong, the tactics and actions of the OPD I witnessed and heard of were pretty extreme, and they behaved irresponsibly toward the citizens who weren’t involved in any of this.”
