BLOG: Blog Hog

This blog is a negative and a very disappointing subject that will be talked about a lot, especially in the Bay Area today and into the future because it will be an ongoing domino theory with no end in sight.

The front page of the Mercury News has a photo of the breakup of the camps in Oakland. Let me remind you, this peaceful protest is for a very good reason.

Yeah I heard about people throwing things at police, only after they came in like gangbusters toppling tents, waving batons and hitting them for the simple reason not moving when they were instructed to. This could have been handled also in a peaceful manner, especially I understand there was about 900 police, shields and batons, tear gas and offensive attitude right at the start of this barbaric technique to try to get people to move on.

All they had to do is two or three officers hold and handcuff people and take them to jail. If they still resist, four or five officers with supposed technical training should have had no problem. This demonstration of people not only here but around the rest of the country is fed up with the rich in all phases. The demonstration will either stop or get worse, you figure it out. I mean the photo on the front page is not only evidence of police brutality, but the small Asian lady appears to be struck by the riot police twice her size and believe me, this will not only bring back most of the protester but will encourage many others with anger in their blood to show up and be ready with an arsenal by both sides.

I really suspect that Oakland with more homicides unsolved will eventually bring a few ruthless and crazies out to show their frustrations with guns and ready to stand ground and will be harder to get to cooperate on demand by police.

The third round should bring out the National Guard and we don’t want to forget what happened at Kent State years ago. You see, the difference this time is that both sides will have guns and it will be ugly.

And about one third of the people out there (in Oakland) are still mad and angry about the Bart police killing the young kid by accident, who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. If I were one of these protesters, I would suggest protest during the day and find a campground that would be more suitable than government property. Then see what they’d do with that arrangement. It’s sad but the only way this will end is if there’s human people gunned down, then people will be scared to be part of it anymore.

Here, we the people, the majority, will retaliate is almost like the thing that’s going on with the Hells Angels: they get even. I hope violence is not the bargaining chip, for the police have already called a raise and there’s no limit to the size of the pot.

If there is enough people to get involved now, the police will be forced to bring in the National Guard, then that will be scary for all parties concerned. And a lot of the kids in the National Guard are neither trained nor ready for such a situation and will be possibly trigger happy like the police. Imagine that.

P.S. Collision of human man in the worse is going to be witnessed by the world.
