Oakland Revolt: Occupy cop crackdown


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

Occupy Oakland Video: Protester shot with rubber bullet for filming cops


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.

The tough police action has also left another US army veteran badly injured, the second such incident in just over a week. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the Oakland-style violence won't be repeated in his city, adding that some of the behavior seen at Zuccotti Park, won't be tolerated.

At that time, the mainstream media outlets were already on stand by ready to capture the footage. The police didn't have the right to kick anyone out especially during hours in which the park is open to the public, but knowingly, they still went through with their orders. One officer was asked by a bystander if he feels good about what he's doing and if he's going to tell his grandchildren about these times. The officer replied with, "I'm just following orders."
