All over #OccupyOakland right now, not fully confirmed.
Apparently attempting to block the road - angry driver hit the protestors.
May God have mercy on this person's soul.
The protester didn’t sound too bright, if he was willing to block a road for no real good reason.
Any road rage points given?

7:45 p.m. Injury accident on Broadway at 11th Street
A man and a woman were hit at 11th Street and Broadway by a silver Mercedes, after a male driver ran
a red light, said Joe Jackson, 37, of Oakland, who witnessed the incident.
The driver was irritated by protesters walking in front of him.
Onlookers said the driver deliberately ran over the pair, accelerating after a man hit on the hood of the car.
The windshield was splattered with what appeared to be a milkshake.
After the car stopped at the other end of the intersection, the driver switched seats with his female passenger.
About 40 people gathered in the intersection and some pulled open the driver’s door.
The woman inside shouted: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
The injured man and woman were taken away in ambulances.
Police let the driver go.
Now let the games begin!
Big news if true. This OWS crap was leading to deaths. Just a matter of time.
Given the general intelligence level we’re dealing with in the occupy this and that craze, probably some guy impersonating a speed bump. Not prudent.
Rachel Corrie’s brother??
Bring it! The left against the right! Winner take all.

They’ve been BEGGING for a ‘Kent State’ moment. Salivating, actually,
Watch folks.... if an OWS protester is indeed killed, it will eventually come out that he’s ACORN or SEIU or HOMELESS with some ACORN/SEIU “walking around money” in his brand new bank account.
I said it first.
They were so disappointed when that marine got better.
It’s up to the police to stop this crap...if they don’t, poor little Johnny’s mother ends up having to go to a funeral.
Thanks Norm. It was more the death part I was referring to.
There's a lot of motorcycle-hostile drivers in that area.
I guess he was just Steppin Out!
Actually it will be the end to this crap nationwide.
