San Francisco police arrested a total of 23 protesters during Occupy San Francisco's "Day of Action" Friday, including 19 during the bank protests in the day and four people involved the evening's occupation of an abandoned hotel.

Of the 19 arrested during the day, police arrested 17 on suspicion of trespassing at Wells Fargo, one at Bank of the West and another for attempting to remove a baton from a police officer, San Francisco Police Department spokesman Carlos Manfredi said Saturday.

Police arrested four people in connection with the evening's occupation of the empty Cathedral Hill Hotel at Van Ness Avenue and Geary Street. "Once they got inside, some of the protesters made it to the roof top and were throwing Bibles at the officers," . . .

Is this what the expression “throw the book” refers to?

Two officers were injured during the hotel incident - one was hit with a brick...

The scum threw bibles after they ran out of bricks.

A brick thrown from 30 feet above is easily lethal.

With the OWS crowd, what else would you do with a book but throw it?

They are not children. They are disease riddled parasites. They are enemies of America. They are the Democrat Party’s cannon fodder. They are a lot of things but children are not one of them.

Man, would you like to stand before God and explain how you trashed his book? Not me.

God would probably smack these guys but that is less due to the books and more with the injuries.

Although while it is understandable that they may dislike religion,especially the way it is going,randomly throwing holy books out of a hotel doesn’t to much to advance anyone’s cause.
