Marin Cops Join Assault on Oakland Occupy Protesters

Marin's police sent to help Oakland's finest "protect and serve" the one percent.

Reports show that Marin police officers joined the assault on peaceful demonstrators in Oakland on Tuesday night. In fact, reports show that they came from Vallejo, San Jose and something like 18 jurisdictions. Apparently this is some Homeland Secuirty force assembled out of assorted cop shops all over the Bay Area and beyond.

Gee, wil they return the favor and come to the aid of Marin's finest if a display of might and fright is needed here? Maybe Halloween would be a good day for that show to take place.

Seriously, is this just a way to use all that Federal funding to safeguard our "Homeland" against terrorist invasion?

Invasion of the people.  What a crime. Time to bring out the old shock and awe.

Oakland has a problem in the public relations department however. And Wednesday night Mayor Jean Quan relented and repented, sorta, and allowed the occupiers back.

Someone occupy the ranks of those who serve and protect before we all get blown up as domestic terrorists in our own land.
