The city of Oakland, California, is reeling after one of the biggest protests the 'Occupy Wall Street' movement has seen. About 80 demonstrators were arrested and several injured after what started as a peaceful rally was met with a heavy-handed police response at the end of the day. Hours before that, thousands of anti-corporate protesters forced a shutdown of America's fifth largest sea port. That's as the general strike - America's first in over half a century - also paralyzed several businesses in Oakland's downtown. RT correspondent, Lucy Kafanov, was at the very heart of unfolding events throughout and describes how they developed. RT on Twitter twitter.com RT on Facebook www.facebook.com

The words from David Icke may well be over a year old but they are timeless. Our thoughts go out to Scott Olssen, the ex marine who served 2 tours in Afghanistan/Iraq and lived, only to come home and be brain damaged by these so called police. I say so-called because they are not true police, they are just robots in uniform, and they must remember, its only a uniform.

Video courtesy: www.youtube.com The video of an Occupy Oakland protester shot by police has been made available, showing perhaps the most outrageous act of overzealous law enforcement action in the weeks since the movement began. An unnamed protester rallying in Oakland, California last week during the city's General Strike managed to be rolling film as he approached a gauntlet of riot gear-clad police officers lined across a city street. Filming their motionless blockage of the road, the videographer asks the cops, "Is this okay?" several times as he paces from one side of the road to the other, camera in hand. The narrator of the footage appears peaceful and calm as he walks around 20 feet away from the police during the course of the 40 second clip in which he at no point attempts to provoke the officers. The footage is cut short, however, after a burst of light is seen exploding from the array of law enforcement followed immediately by the cameraman falling to the ground. The exact projectile fired by the cops has not been identified, though the man was believed to be hit by either a beanbag or a non-lethal rubber bullet round.

Long-time activist and devout practitioner of non-violence, Francisco "Pancho" Ramos Stierle, is facing deportation after being arrested while meditating in front of Oakland City Hall during the early morning hours of Monday, November 14, following the raid of the camp. Although Pancho has since been released, his immigration challenges have not gone away. *** www.dailygood.org *** Although the Alameda County District Attorney's office chose not to file any charges against Ramos Stierle, he was not released after his court appearance as ICE had placed an immigration hold preventing his release. ICE arrived early Thursday morning and have since transferred Ramos Stierle into their custody. If you support Pancho and think he should be allowed to remain in Oakland to continue his activism here, please consider signing this petition: www.change.org
