Tweeps are reporting that the Oakland protest going on now is beginning to get a little tense.

Sure does.
its early yet, hope our hero keeps in the mix when the yutes start throwing shit and breaking more windows.
got the popcorn ready.
Telegraph & 51st, Temescal district. Another Walgreens drug store across the street.
Michael Brown died so that a few people could get some free hair care products.
Oakland PD stopped following the protesters near the Berkley line. CHP blocking traffic up ahead of protesters.
I hope the Nike store is boarded up....
Thankfully this is very boring. Gotta run for now.
Yeah, I can agree, but it seems to spiral out of control quickly.
I’m not really interested in their false outrage, and if I lived there, I’d be even less interested.
frankly, I’m tired of this.
If they behave as criminals, then deal with them as criminals.
That’s about where I’m at on this.
A few maggot infested, white hippies yelling inane slogans while savoring their white guilt.
Rather pathetic.
I doubt there’s even two dozen of them. It’s a pretty small group.
judging from the feed, more like the Birkenstock store, and any head shops
The night is young, the weekend has just started.
Yet...
The glitter has worn off the St Louis-Mike Brown incident after the video of him committing robbery and assault was released.
They might not be able to keep feeding this fire.
Birth control, Ho Chi Minh, Richard Nixon back again
Moonshot, Woodstock, Watergate, punk rock
Begin, Reagan, Palestine, Terror on the airline
Ayatollah’s in Iran, Russians in Afghanistan
Wheel of Fortune, Sally Ride, heavy metal, suicide
Foreign debts, homeless Vets, AIDS, Crack, Bernie Goetz
Hypodermics on the shores, China’s under martial law
Rock and Roller Cola wars, I can’t take it anymore
As I was logging off ...
The police have set a line to stop the protesters from moving beyond it.
Protester just tried to break through and got arrested.
LOL
Not That many people will get that one.
Still, what are they protesting?
If this is about Brown, there’s nothing to protest.
Dude, was a bad apple, with worms in it.
All they are doing is furthering existing prejudices against them.
This is a self perpetuating cycle.
Respect is earned, and so is disrespect.
They are not earning the former.
Can’t we just save a ton of money and give these neighborhoods what they want? Eliminate the evil cops, all they donis prevent them from doing what they want. Everybody wins
