Riots in Oakland, CA

Riots broke out wednesday night in Oakland, Ca over the fatal shooting of 22 yr old Oscar Grant Haward. Oscar was shot in the back while on the floor, already detained by BART officer Johannes Mehserle. A small group of anarchists made an appearance at the protest. Police cars were attacked and other vehicles set ablaze. Police officers shot tear gas and and fired bean bags with shotguns into the crowd. The crowd eventually dispersed. Mahserle resigned just prior to an internal affairs investigation on the situation. This should have been a much larger turnout than it was, we should learn from our brothers in Greece.

perhaps there sould be a program to arm prominent anarchist groups. We can understand that it takes massive demonstration of strength to gain attentionso why not aid the process. I say this because when i look at this video i see pigs farly outnumbering and out arming the protesters. so what if as a collective we collected and distributed riot gear packages. Boots. any sort of gas mask or somehtign of the sort, knives, guns like the riot pigs have ie. bean bag guns, megaphones, nitrate, sulfur and perhaps a copy of “Steal This Book”. I saw many cases in the video where tactics in steal this book if deployed properly would have been marginally successful and easily performed by a small group. Such as tying fuse or string to a weight and dropping it in the gas tank of an authoritarian gas tank or near the tank. Many times where more power would have been wonderful, lets say that where those riot cops lined up there was a group behind them firing somehting,ANYTHING. Pellet guns can do much damage, i own one capable of firing 1000 FPS (about the smae feet per second as a .22 caliber rifle). We could win street riots the way this country was won, by using brutal guerilla tactics. When they line up to volley, we get at em from behind. But jsut an idea i had, btw AOC do u have an email i could use to send u some of my other work?

This really makes me angry, what with all the police brutality in Gitmo and on the streets. With all this senceless violence on the part of the cops is reaching up higher and higher to new heights. This forshadows the many deaths to come in this escalating fight. This has been going on in U.S. war camps such as Gitmo and those in Iraq. To see more details i would definetely suggest watching the movie “Gitmo” (it is just on Youtube if you search it). It is coming to a fight or die scenario with the advancing Police State. It is just sad that something that actually has a potential (in a Utopian society) to be good. This is just another easily corruptable sector of our Government. It is just sad how bad it truly is getting.

This entire thing upsets me so much. If you haven’t seen the video of Oscar being shot…here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idJAr6NUy..

I don’t know how you guys feel, but it makes me so angry to see these people who are put out to “protect” us but instead abuse their power to kill us. It doesn’t make me feel any safer.

I’m fed up with it all. Let’s put some action to our words.

I’m on the east coast, closer to up north.

Can anyone else see something like in Greece happening in the US? Soon?

peace out.

I didn’t know you’d be so close! I’m up in rhode island actually.

BTW Winston, your idea seems to be well thought out. Being active is probably one of the most important things to do.

Do you want me to email you so we can discuss things further?

I’m pretty new to the anarchy scene. I’ve been doing tons of research for about 4 months now. And everything seems to make so much sense.

Want to help educate me more? haha. I’ll send you an email. It’s a gmail account, too.

peace.

So you all don’t like order? You all would not live past 25 without the order of civilization. You all utilize those ideas brought to you by innovation (e.g., computers, the INTERNET, etc.) yet it is evil. IGNORANT... ALL OF YOU!!!!

You fuckin dip shit, do your research before you word vomit on our site again. Order and civilization has nothing to do with anarchism. Being without a "chief or head" does not mean chaos and disorder. Resistance to tyranny and corruption has nothing to do with your statement. Necessity promotes innovation and invention regardless of what it may be.

I feel as if this is the wrong way to get what we want to get across. It makes us no better then those pigs. go around and fight every pig we see and start some mayhem. I believe anarchism should be people of a like mind working together for the better good of a community. Our american government is so distant from the actual people, they believe what’s best for them is best for us. Fighting off the government with violence only makes it worse for us. Fighting with our fists, weapons, ect. will not win this war against. That makes us corrupt. Fight with intelligence, not muscle. If you wanna start a riot instead, have fun acting like a child then getting shot.

Police brutality also happened in the Philippines but activists here are victims of abuses through corruption and political killings. I always saw in many police cars in my nation Philippines the sentence ‘To serve and To protect’ and in real life must of police want to serve and protect a corrupt and fascist politicians like President Arroyo than common people, than those who fought for justice, and good government.
