   They’re trying to get the people out first and then take down the structures.

   Wrong sequence of events here. Cut the trees down first and if the “tree sitters” are still alive, then remove them otherwise leave them for compost which is what they are.

    Protest is fine, but you do it legally. If you don’t like what the University is doing talk to the courts and the media. It is illegal to occupy property without permission. They pay fines, damages, rent and go to jail. Can we throw in some re-education while we’re at it?

    My sentiments, exactly! Both the hosing, and their removal would be good for the trees. For safety’s sake, airbags could be deployed under them to break their fall…of course, the airbags should only have a narrow diameter, say 12 inches.

    And, I would expect the California University system to sue them for all the expenses this stunt has cost the university. A ban from all UC campuses would be nice, also.

    In my angry and righteous moral universe, hurling excrement at people doing their duty is a capital offense. Although legal prudence would suggest a more modest reaction, I’d love to see the cops riddle the excrement-hurling protesters with automatic weapons fire following the bodies with fire until they splattered on the ground and then hitting them with a few more rounds until they had bounced a couple of times.

    It took me a minute to figure out why the tree sitter in the pic was wearing a mask. It is because there are actually far more of them than the ones seen in the trees. These people are not sitting there 7×24, they are sitting there in shifts. If the University actually wanted them removed, all they had to do was to cut off the supply lines, and the reinforcements, and wait em out. Considering this has been going on for months, the university has obviously been supporting these tree sitters the entire time.

    Clearly the University officials should be held accountable for costing the State of California for all of this, and they should be removed today.

    Sorry Freddy but you’re offbase. The site has been surrounded by a chainlink fence and 24-hr security for over a year. The protestors inside the fence have not been able to get in or out.

    They keep their faces covered because they don’t want to be identified. Most likely, they have police records or don’t want their families to see them on tv.

    they were pelted with potatos, because, after all, it was the Idaho game.

    Too bad they weren’t playing a team called the “Poisonous Sharp Darts”.

    local 5 pm news has reported 1 gal has been taken out of the trees. apparently she had bitten an arborist earlier.

    i hope his shots are current.

    also shown was some golden showers activity as the treehuggers poured their potty bottles on the folks down below who were trying to remove all the ropes that have been used by the tree people.

    Firefighters use a can of tuna to get cats out of trees, all they need to do was put an ounce of herb in a bowl and they would have crawled right down.

    Sure!!, these Commie pukes really give a crap that the Oak grove is a memorial to WW-1 soldiers.

    A “Barf” emoticon would be nice.

    Hi there Kalifornia Kafir!

    At a minimum, someone is supplying them with water. And if they have a means to move water to that site, then there is little reason to believe that ‘other’ items (like food and people) are not being moved as well.

    You’re right Freddy. They were using a network of wires to pull food/water into the fenced area. But the protestors who are inside have been there since the fences went up.

    The Battle For The Oak Grove has begun.
    The link is for a Cal sports page, but it has the most up to the minute breaking news anywhere.

    Should be an interesting day.

    Meanwhile, university officials won the right in court in November to remove the protesters, but haven’t decided how to do it.

    I would think a couple of fire hoses and some tear gas would work nicely.
    Either that or just start cutting the trees and let the hippies jump for it.

    YES! Get Melvin Lardy and the Stump Branch crew in there.

    I’d like to know what they get charged with for throwing feces on officers.

    My guess would be felony assault on a police officer. That’s felony, with an “f’ as in “five years” in the Graybar Hotel.

    Now my old great-grandpappy would just “bark em”. That is how he would get a squirrel. You don’t want to shoot a squirrel directly because the bullet would destroy the meat. So you would just shoot at the tree right next to the squirrel and the bullet would kick up the bark and stun the squirrel. The squirrel would fall to the ground where it could be picked up.

    I say just BARK EM… and if you want to use the time to train your kids to shoot, let them have a few shots also… if you hit a few, who cares…there are a LOT of squirrels.

    I love this so much. This little drama playing out on the streets is hilarious.

    This could not happen to a more deserving group of leftists.
