At what point are people being illegally detained?

I have the feeling that people who have lived for some time in SF know all too well that police action in cases like that leads to more trouble than it's worth.

I think this is because those with experience know that the protestors want a forceful police response. That's precisely what they are trying to incite.

A mini-riot would result in the word going out by internet to every pocket of losers in the country, and within two or three days there'd be 1500 people there.

Such a response would also result in lucrative on-line fundraising activities, and many hook-up opportunities that would result from outsiders having to crash with various members of the organizer cadre.

Yeah, who are we to stand in the way of competing liberal victim groups? Not me.

“OMG! I was reading comments at the article and envy is surely the hallmark of leftist ideology.”

Class warfare at its finest; food stamps and welfare are the only thing preventing a rising along the lines of the Bolshevik revolution.

Not exactly. Most of those people would never be living in SF and commuting almost an hour to near San Jose without the buses.

They clearly were doing just that, hence the need for the company to spend money on the buses to make sure everyone gets to work on time...
