Undeterred by chilly weather or the Christmas holiday, dozens of antipolice demonstrators marched through downtown Oakland on Thursday evening — some smashing windows of businesses in Jack London Square, throwing bottles, and even tearing ornaments and lights from a large Christmas tree —in the latest round of protests against what they see as police violence toward minorities.

Funny how the SF Gate appears to take it all in stride.

Inspired by Father Obama’s call to “stay the course” and undeterred by chilly weather or the Christmas holiday, dozens of The People’s Sturmabteilung marched through downtown Oakland on Thursday evening smashing windows of businesses...

It makes you wonder if they are even slightly aware of how they are perceived and how stupid and feral it makes them look not to mention the damage they are doing to race relations not that they seem to care in the slightest.

“This really is getting old.”

Yeah, I just wonder when the decent people are going to get fed up enough to put together a group with clubs that is ten times or more the numbers of the “protestors,” and go down for some “batting practice.” With all that’s gone on, the cops are as worthless as tits on a bull!

If they really wanted to make their point why not invade white enclaves such as Woodside, Los Altos, Saratoga or Los Gatos.

They are dishonest and wreaking havoc on the very communities they are supposedly protesting for.

Time make arrests before they kill someone in the name of “social justice”.

Did the reporter interview a shop owner that had to pay hundreds of dollars to replace a broken window?

Until these Aholes are put in prison, this violence burglary and thuggery will continue. It’s being whipped up by “professional community organizers” and paid for by the very same extremely deep pockets that brought us UKnowWho in the first place. Note how the police are not doing their jobs ( or are not being permitted to ). And how there’s little or no action by the DA or state AG. Result: more and more street violence against innkcent Americans.

That whole movement is very different from anything in the past. They don't rest, no stopping to observe or respect any tradition, concern for whom they disrupt or attack. They are pursuing this as a war and wars stop for nothing or no one. This isn't just some basic exercise of 1st Amendment rights, it's more than that and people need to wake up to that fact.

Yeah, as it has been noted around FR, this crap is occurring with enthusiasm within the jurisdictions of various local, county or state regimes that are sympathetic to and apparently working with these insurgents. There's no other explanation I can think of that could make sense.

That is the obvious answer yes. I would hate to live in such lawless cities. I’d try to get out ASAP!! I would hate even more to be a cop there. Sh—t!

I would bet you if they took an actual vote from the populace, most people would want every one of these creeps arrested and dispersed.

It’s only the leftist media who thinks they are the majority and that everyone is in sympathy with them.

My guess is the only reason people don’t go out on the streets and stand against them is because they know the deck is stacked against them; not only will they have these lawless creeps come after them, but the government will get you if you get into an altercation - not the thug breaking windows.

Oakland California is one of the most beautiful areas in the US, with a great climate, picturesque views of the bay, and an enviable central location that is the locus of west coast commerce and culture. But it was completely ruined by black imported cheap WWII labor which turned it into a crime infested hellhole from which it never recovered. It is now a frightening and dangerous no-mans-land smack dab in the middle of an otherwise prosperous region. Nuking it would be an act of kindness.

I talked to a cop today who said he’s getting out of the business.

They’ll be riled up in Ferguson today.

I see on twitter that someone ran over the Mike Brown memorial trash pile last night.
