    I don’t condone a violent response here, but a humorous aside: A friend of mine called his giant 4-D Cell Maglite a “Tonk”. Because that’s the sound it makes when crashing off of a human skull.

    That said, I do support the use of crowd-control agents, such as tear gas, rubber bullets, firefighting foam (that stuff is slippery!), or special-effects “hurricane fans”.

    Was there ever any doubt that the occupation would lead to violence?

    Oakland going to overt violence first just makes sense, its the home of the Raiders and routine riots and after the protesters got away with reentering the park and thumbing their nose at the world the escalation was only a matter of time.

    Innocent people will be hurt but perhaps the National Guard will be called out and by that time (hopefully) most of the nation will have had enough.

    But there’s nothing quite like the feel of solid contact between a head and a solid piece of northern white ash. Aluminum just doesn’t compare. The main reason that the bats break so easily is because the shafts are too thin. The players order them custom made that way so that the weight is all in the sweet spot. You can have them custom made by either Adirondack or Louisville Slugger with a thicker shaft so they hold up better for crowd control.

    Oh it’s only half of the story. These lummocks are going to put a torch to the wrong truck filled with hazmat. Blinko! All 50 protestors will get taken out. This is such an astroturf fabrication of Nazi-style battering. The protests downtown today were “attended” by people taking time off at noon- and going after work. The rabble is so small in number. Did I say they stink too? The anarchists are out in force but they don’t live here in the Bay Area. A freaky lot— professionally trained. A lot of bravado about working with FARC and MS13 blah blah blah. If I had a nickel for every Palestinian style rag around the neck I’d be richer than Soros. His fingerprints are all over this too. Mayor Qrank is outmaneuvered on this: Oakland schools granted leave with pay to teachers and paid an enormous amount out to subs. All the while, a significant number of kids took the day off— which means federal funds were witheld for each absent kid. DOH!

    The Oakland cops are plenty pissed off and overworked. If riots break out, the nation will get a sneak preview of what is coming with the rest of “Occupy” as the hipsters now refer to it. It is a melange of every far left cause now— animal rights, gay and lesbian blah blah blah, trangendered whatever, queer whatever, anti-apartheid, make Van Jones’s crony a member of the Port authority…. every wannabe cause under the sun.

    I think this is a tremendous opportunity for the American voter to see what their President supports. The people who voted for Chingama are getting a preview of term 2. And it isn’t pretty. He is not in possession of a single clue or solution as to what to do. He is a third rate politician in an overpriced suit. His methadone addiction is showing through. And the Chinese are playing him like a fiddle in Cannes. “Them Greeks don’t want to freaks!”

    Beck called every drop of this fruitless political charade. By the time President Chingama rides in on his white horse to calm the masses, he will be reduced to a charlatan on a pygmy pony. A parody of his absurd Marxist self. He may know exactly what he is doing but he forgot that 50 plus per cent of the population is armed— and if that rabble comes up yonder, it will be double tap time. Anarchize that.

    The cops are not on board with this mess. At some point Mayor Qrank is going to have to fight for her own political survival or step down. At that point- and it is near at hand, the party will be over. Union money or not, they cannot sustain their position.

    The kiddies are not willing to die.

    And when it comes down to President Chingama’s agenda it boils to one question: “Who dies first, y’all?”

    Stay tuned. The opportunity to destroy the Democratic Party will come soon enough. Has anyone heard a peep out of Howard Deano lately?

    La Raza buses in their own do-rag-nasties to “do it” to the white man, and the businesses that prey on the poor Latino community.

    Anarchists, faces covered, and dressed in black and red clothing, start launching molotov cocktails from the protection of the back of the crowd, setting fellow protestors on fire…but continue anyway, ’cause watching burning people “is cool”…and since they don’t know those people, who cares?

    Teamster pot-bellies bum-rush police opposition, wielding clubs and baseball bats, and hit anyone within their reach.

    Opportunistic radical college students break into businesses, and steal everything not nailed down.

    Police fire on looters, killing and wounding many. They get fired upon from the back of the crowd, and return fire, killing several more protestors.

    Barbara Lee, Sheila Jackson Lee, Cynthia McKinney, and the hag from LA, Maxine Waters, appear on national and local television, condemning the police attack on innocent black kids who just happened to be at the scene, watching.

    Phileosophos said; Just curious: do you suppose it’s legal to shoot somebody who is vandalizing your property? If so, then my advice is to shoot them when they come. If not, then my advice is also to shoot them when they come, but hire a good lawyer first.

    In Oakland it is virtually illegal to shoot someone who is vandalizing your property. If they are trying to kill it seems that we are no longer able to make that decision our selves. Apparently we supposed DIE.

    Same principle here as when terrorists see weakness, they become more emboldened. These scumbaggers see the weakness in their Mayor and have no fear of punishment. What a srewed up place this country has become.

    I had stickers made to put on all my home’s access points, which read:

    ATTENTION THIEVES!
    Proceed at your own risk. The residents of this household will use deadly force to protect lives and property.
    YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

    Next to them, are little signs showing a silhouette target with two gunshots to the head, and five in the chest. Below the target it reads: “Nothing inside worth dying for.”

    Not only have I not had problems with crooks, I haven’t had any solicitors drop by in over a year!

    If Oakland wants an all-out general strike/shutdown perhaps they should get it. That would include the shutdown of all electricity and water/sewage/ supplies/services. Let it happen…please! If they want no Internet/cell phones to coordinate their actions (and check in with Mommy) and if they want to live in filth and squalor without fresh food or working toilets, let them! Better they learn on a small scale by their own actions than on a large scale by necessity. Let them learn…PLEASE!!! Hopefully they will gain an education and just go home and back to work like a normal, well-functioning community does.

    Again, the saddest thing to me is that homes and businesses and lives and liberty are all casualties of this “Occupy” movement of much less than 1%, and they aren’t being stopped by the governments who have no legitimate purpose if not to protect life, liberty, and property.

    All for the sake of the “right” of endless protest.

    I’m a bit confused about the Whole Foods statement that they WEREN’T going to punish workers for walking off the job… They SHOULD punish their employees if they leave their shifts without permission.

    You can’t just leave work because of some made-up strike and not expect for there to be repercussions with your state of employment. I swear it’s scary how many so-called adults don’t grasp the way the world works. No wonder we’re screwed.

    Charter buses taking protesters to the Port of Oakland now. One occupier says there about a dozen buses on site. It looks like they are getting police escort…

    What?!
    Did anyone have a protest permit?
    No? Then turn those friggin’ buses around!

    It’s time for the government to do its intended job and that is to provide for the common defense of the nation. These “Occupy” thugs are nothing but national terrorists and they’re interfering with commerce, trade and the national security of the nation. Use whatever force is necessary to subdue these thugs and stop their terrorism.

    Depends if your state has a “Castle Doctrine” or not. The doctrine states that you can protect your property, just as a castle, with deadly force if necessary. Here in MN, naturally, we don’t have it. However, I can buttstroke a punk into submission drag his/her butt into my home , then shoot them(hypothetically, of course)

    David…I LIKE the way you think!!

    Remember folks, each state has its own laws, as it should be. And each state has the right to call out the National Guard and declare Martial Law. The federal govmt. needs to stay out of this. The states that are having the problems are the states who are in charge of fixing them. We must not abdicate the States Rights to the Feds. They have hijacked enough of them already!

    If the states use their Constitutional rights to take care of these idiots, then Obama will have NO POWER to declare martial law on the whole country or to cancel elections. Just remember that. STATES RIGHTS BABY!!

    When is it okay to finally accept that these are not grassroots protests? These are highly organized uprisings, organized by unions and the various taxpayer-funded and politician-approved and Wall Street elite-approved anti-American socialist organizations we have all come to know unless you get your news from the MSM. Van Jones, Richard Trumka and Andrew Stern TOLD us they were going to do this. And it is a GLOBAL uprising.

    The mayor’s response to rioters setting up barricades in the streets:

    “Protesters need to call my office now.”

    She’s so indoctrinated into the idea that she has to be nice and lovey-dovey to everyone that she can’t even say, “Protesters need to stop now and go home for the night.” She’s terrified to make a stand.

    If the definition of terrorism is engaging in activities that are intended to cause fear or terror in the widespread public, then I suppose the shoe fits pretty well. But Obama’s too busy trying to watch those dastardly war veterans and give amnesty to mexican drug cartel members.
