OKAY, the backstory. Yesterday, 300+ protesters in Oakland occupied a vacant building and tried to turn it into a community center. 300 arrests were made then, so there was a march planned for NYC tonight. 400 people showed up at the meeting place by 7 PM and then they started marching. Some cops decided to randomly arrest people, so the march started running then got blocked etc etc.
Timcast has 2k current viewers lol.
Discussion? I think it might turn violent soon, the black block protestors (dressed in all black with masks) remind me a LOT of the g17 and london riots... sooo
EDIT: Well, they've been arresting random people, some guy pegged a policeman in the back of the head with a bottle and ran away, he made it away. Hm.

Welp. This was bound to happen eventually.
It begins. (again)

That's the video from oakland 2 days ago (and why they were marching yesterday)
I could build much better corrugated steel barriers for those protestors than what they had on-hand :v:

Ahhh, Oakland.
Loveliest city in all of California
Yeah, lol. Federal government threatened to take over their PD if they don't shape up (been a lot of reports of brutality for 10 years).
When the feds take over, we can begin to see NDAA in action *paranoia*
Well...you can't go take over a building. That is definitely illegal. The cops did the right thing I guess.
