Breaking News Marine Corps Veteran Shot In Head By Police OccupyOakland I Smell a Riot

[Jofus360]

This is why violent protests are the only answer. Why stand there with nothing when these fucking pigs have weapons and can deploy fire on civilians at any moments notice.

[ArchNME]

I wish people wouldn't yell medic like that. jesus fuck... you trying to send the guy into shock, and me.

[schnel127]

terrible... the Jewish police state at it's best...

[exmark316]

We need our military to protect people against these police!

[DesertFerret7]

I know the police cannot be trusted at all. They really have shown their true colors! They are not one of us! They were in bed with the bankers then and they are in bed with the bankers now. Politicians won't fix this nor Congress. They will just fuck up even more. Tthe Democrats were big sellouts back then and they are still now. That includes the Republican party as well. Civil war could be a few blocks ahead. No one in their well structured mind wants a civil war but it could happen.

[HiawathaMohawk]

You fucking pigs! You time is comin you fucking scum. Shooting our Marine veterans you fucking mother fucking jew scum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[cybot60]

@HiawathaMohawk HE WAS RIOTING. If you're going to riot, you should EXPECT to be caught in the crossfire. Also, a LOT of cops are ex-servicemen. Not to mention as per your military justice system, he shouldn't have even been there.

[thefreedomlass]

Carrying signs and shouting slogans will get you nowhere unless you are prepared to stand and fight for your freedom to the death -- you cannot win a revolution against the might of the military industrial machine by holding up a few signs as you trek off down the street. You must get it together before they burn all the evidence to the ground.

once the shooting starts

[RickyFromVegas]

Medic?

Calling for Medic?

Call the police and the ambulance.

Oh wait.

[puritain1]

Disgusting - police should be ashamed.

[Bruce1949919]

He wasn't shot Genius....

[razorlord2]

Learn to stand still when you film

[votingronpaul2008]

Rest assured that both veterans and enlisted military are beginning to plan a suitable response to the matter.

These fine and loyal citizens will soon join in a variety of ways with their fellow civilian supporters to put an end to such outrageous abuses.

[thejimmyzshow]

@TheMasterbajt How so? Did you go to public school? Because that's the only excuse for typing something so ignorant.

[thejimmyzshow]

Somewhere along the way, this Marine felt it was time to align himself with these morons? Oops, something went wrong. You don't have a right to camp on public ground. You should have been moved along a LONG time ago. Stupid losers.

[njguy1908]

I am a combat veteran and also a police officer. This is sad. I understand why people are protesting. I wish this fellow veteran well and a speedy recovery. I have seen this chaos before many times. Remember what this gentleman stood for and never give up on your goals. The people causing the problem are the elitists.

[harponercam]

Listen to te many ricochets the first 8 seconds or so-

but the other video seems to indicate Olsen was NOT SHOT-

He was knocked flat by the first grenade, and was then motionless on the ground- and then the second one landed and exploded 2 or 3 feet from him when a dozen people gathered around him

[fitarmyguy1987]

what do you expect to happen when your in a riot.....

[cybot60]

@fitarmyguy1987 The fact he's a Marine shouldn't matter. If you're going to riot (riot is not protesting, by the way people) you should expect to be injured.

[thejimmyzshow]

@cybot60 Exactly. They're going to riot, this is their goal. so screw 'em.

[Truthrevealed21]

It is good to see the protesters helping the falling people. Shame on those cops for this, I hope this guys family sues the shit out of the Oakland police department.

[Cho2154]

In this country, we have the right to freedom of speech and freedom of peaceful assembly. This was ridiculous and unprovoked.  I am outraged that a young man who served in Iraq was treated in this manner.

[RoyalDaftPunk]

yup i live an hour away from oakland,makes me want to start a riot,wait wait more like a revolution against the Jury,Congress,Governor especially against the federal banks and Wall-street.

[bj4fattmatt666]

any one who is not on that mans side is not only stupid but they in fact are not American that man risked his life for you people, just so he can come home and have an imperialistic cowered do this to him at home. Any cop is a cowered that is a fact and anyone who says contrary is either a cop the friend of a cop or would like to be a cop in other words a cowered like yootooobjeff. not only did that man have the right to be there he is one of the few people in this country who eared it.

[YooTooobJeff]

You guys think this shit is bad... wait till you get trampled by a horse, or your pretty girlfriend catches one of those canisters in the face, or you're missin' half your skull from a crowd stomping...

There's an old phrase: "Don't f**k with my money, my wife, or my food"...

You're trying to mess with someone's EARNED money, and you act surprised that they would like to keep it, to spend as THEY want, not YOU...

I predict life will continue to be a surprise for you, and not in a good way...

[YooTooobJeff]

With all the lame screaming and yelling, it's not hard to tell you guys are ":too much TV"... you act like the rookies you are... why didn't you consult some people who have gone thru this shit already, like some old antiwar 1960's guys (oh yeah, they're all dead from drug OD's) well learn from that then.

You guys wanted a "war", otherwise why all the random crack-head moves with the police?... Try that shit around my house, and you'll WISH there was some cops around...

[SlayerStevo]

Things that bother me about this event:

1. He was a Marine, the few, the proud, the Marines. Do you know how hard it is to become a Marine? Do you know how much trust you have when you take on responsibility of being a Marine? And to think a Marine will act out violently at a mainly peaceful protest? He would not! These actions where unprovoked

2. ALL PROJECTILES lethal and NON-LETHAL are ment to be shot at the chest. Why was he shot in the head?!?

Thats all

[frankymafiaman]

@SlayerStevo Unfortunately they shot them up in the air and allowed the MANY canisters to fall where they may. They threw flash grenades AT people. They waited until this Marine was being surrounded by people trying to help him, and they threw a flash grenade right in the middle of the small group trying to help the downed Veteran.

[ArchNME]

@SlayerStevo I think you just need a GED and to be able to do 50 push-ups. That shit you're talking is just marketing.

[Phalinex]

Watch out for republican cops. They're out for blood.

[FoxtrotActual1]

when in our nation has the rights of the people been so diminished that the very men and women that fight for us and defend us foreign or domestically or even united states citizens have there right to assemble bashed by SS like police officers that dont resemble anything from which our country was founded when will the true american republic come back? where is your line in the sand now? people!

[ShittyMcPoopyBalls]

These occupy people are amazing. They say the world would fall into chaos without government, yet they've never even attempted not having a government. That's it, I'm moving into a forest.

[rousis14]

Maybe he wouldn't have been shot (or whatever it was) if he wasn't taking place in this damn movement. Sure I respect him for what he's done for the states and anywhere else he has served, but damn don't get caught up in shit like this because people are bound to get hurt when masses of people form together to protest (peacefull or not).

So all I'm saying is if you're going to protest, expect shit like this to happen. The fact that he's a veteran is pure irony to be honest.

[mattbell555]

@rousis14 yeah expect this in Nazi germany,you are now in it.

[T3CHN0G33K]

"The Redcoats are coming! The Redcoats are coming!"

[totorod]

@frankymafiaman Alex just saw that he had a fractured skull and assumed that it was a rock or bottle that hit him. She probably saw the word "shot" and thought of firearms, forgetting about other projectiles like rubber bullets or tear gas canisters (all mainstream news reports state it was a tear gas canister).

[frankymafiaman]

@totorod yeah I am seeing that they've confirmed it was a tear gas canister. Thanks for the clarification.

[totorod]

And yes Alex, you're right. He does have a fractured skull, from being SHOT IN THE HEAD with a tear gas canister.

[totorod]

@Alex4Constitution And what "kind" would that be Alex? Those who put their life on the line for YOUR freedom to make such comments on the web? (i.e. Marine Corps Vets)

[Alex4Constitution]

News reporting a fractured skull, not SHOT! His own kind hit him in the head with rocks they were slinging! Truth comes out!

[kitten645]

@Alex4Constitution Not true idiot.



[Alex4Constitution]

@backinthebottle - you just rated yourself out!  WE MIGHT AS WELL shot him ourselves? What are you some kind of but case? You trying to kill folks? Cause I'm reporting you!!!

[Alex4Constitution]

This video is nothing put a bunch of rhetoric designed to get folks all riled up so something more serious will happen. This video doesn't provide nor prove who shot who! If I'd take a stave at this, your own goofy kind did this! It ain't working! They're doing everything they can to take our guns! Not falling for it! Good try!

[BackindaBottlePrdxns]

are we gonna let this happen? what are we gonna do?  are we cowards? if we do nothing we might as well be shooting that boy in the head; or ourselves for that matter.

[SolidOne40]

@BackindaBottlePrdxns I have an AR-15 Armalite with anti-personnel rounds, as well as a set of 4 fully automatic mac-10 machine guns. If I am in New York, and I am fired on by police for a PEACEFUL protest, I will open fire upon them. We must REBEL.

[Madouc001]

If this were to happen in any other country: Clinton would be all over telling the government of that country to respect the peoples rights. Apparantly civil rights are for other parts of the world.

[ChaotixMachine]

@lgdhc2010 Sorry, but that re-hashed shit you just pulled out of someone else's ass for an excuse doesn't work in this case. I'll bet you go on every video like this and say things like you have without reading up on it yourself. For the record, one source is not adequate.

[FruitTrees4Life]

He did TWO tours in IRAQ, was never hurt, He comes home and participates in a peaceful demonstration to be injured, He is in ICU with possible brain swelling. Prayers for the Fromer Marine and his family!! And prayers for this country. National Occupy Your State Capitol, Oct 29th... 12-3pm!

[9DragonMaster]

THINK WE CAN FREEK OUT THE WOUNDED ANY MORE THEN THAT???

[imababyyo]

Jesus fucking Christ we need to get our shit together and stop all of this violence and corrupt government before we blow up this whole damn planet. We should be more evolved than this especially with the knowledge that is out there that totally explains what life really is and who we are as a part of it. I am going to write a god damn book!

[Sensadire]

"What's your name?" "WHAT'S YOUR NAME?!" "WHAT'S YOUR NAME!?!?!" lol

[heaviside1618]

Filthy fucking pigs. A very truthful statement is being made more and more these days:

The only good cop is a dead cop.

[betseylovely]

@heaviside1618 that's the problem. cops like this give all cops a bad name. that's like making a generalization about an ethnicity. Of course there are fucking terrible cops, but I can assure you that there are good cops. Granted they are usually the minority cops, but cops are just following orders they receive. Don't blame them. Blame the man.

[earthygreen]

@heaviside1618 You're a moron. I'm against the police state more than anyone, but not all cops are evil. Only the mindless ones who obey immoral and illegal orders.

[heaviside1618]

@earthygreen Only the mindless ones who obey immoral and illegal orders???? That's ALL OF THEM!!! You are the moron.

Not all Crips and Bloods are evil, they are just part of an evil organization???

You are the moron. Exercise your brain and put yourself in the cop's shoes. A moral person wouldn't make it through the academy.

[earthygreen]

@heaviside1618 That's ALL of them?

3 Cops in my city were SLAUGHTERED on the same day on the same call while responding to a domestic. It was a set up to murder the "pigs". One of the younger men was from the town 10 minutes up the highway from me. I watched his procession after his death and paid my respects. Just a few days ago another officer, likely one I called upon to handle a drunk man that touched my 5 year old, was shot and killed while attempting to apprehend a murderer on the run.

[heaviside1618]

@earthygreen Three dead cops? There's your three good cops. You are a brainwashed idiot. The mafia has served as protectors in many societies and have done individual acts of goodness. But they are immoral bad people. You will never understand because you are just one of the brainwashed sheep.

[earthygreen]

@heaviside1618 Wait a second.. you JUST said "A MORAL PERSON WILL NOT MAKE IT THROUGH POLICE ACADEMY!!!" So.. which is it? And by the way... 4..dead cops. 3 in the city, 1 where I used to live. Your brain is in a vice. You're NOT THINKING. GOOD MEN are found EVERYWHERE. I was 8 years old when I wanted to be an investigator/detective. I would have followed that dream if I didn't start a family. I'm passionate about justice, liberty and freedom. NOT all cops are bad! OATH KEEPERS. Look 'em up!!

[heaviside1618]

@earthygreen You'd be a perfect cop cuz you are so stupid.

The only good cop is a dead cop. There's your three good cops. Or four, if you prefer.

ALL pigs are bad. The system is DESIGNED THAT WAY by dirty politicians.

ALL pigs are bad. The system is DESIGNED THAT WAY by dirty politicians.

ALL pigs are bad. The system is DESIGNED THAT WAY by dirty politicians.

ALL pigs are bad. The system is DESIGNED THAT WAY by dirty politicians.

You will never understand because you are a stupid lamb.

[earthygreen]

@heaviside1618 How old are you? I've disagreed with Cop haters before.. but you're what? 20 maybe?

You seem to think you've been given enlightenment. You haven't. You're blocking out facts and truth because something you were told has satisfied a preconceived notion that defines you. You are a non-thinking individual and you will have no power b/c you have no truth. You have paranoia and prejudice. That makes you weak and vulnerable. Get educated kiddo. The more you know, the more powerful.

[heaviside1618]

@earthygreen I have spent several years studying history and sociology. You are a typical lamb who has no facts to base their opinions on. I've tried to give it to you from several angles but you're a zombie.

[earthygreen]

@heaviside1618 lol Several angles? GOOD COP IS A DEAD COP, DIRTY POLITICIANS, SHEEP SHEEP!

LOL, those are your angles? Surely you studied history and sociology in a community college as general education. I'm so impressed. Please, you have had no argument what-so-ever.

[earthygreen]

@heaviside1618 You're not a Moron, you're a brain-dead asshole. There are GOOD men who serve their cities and towns. And there are egotistical PRICKS who become cops for the power trip. Only a fool would be so narrow minded as yourself.

[heaviside1618]

@earthygreen A MORAL PERSON WILL NOT MAKE IT THROUGH POLICE ACADEMY!!! The system is DESIGNED THAT WAY BY IMMORAL POLITICIANS!!! You MUST lack morality to be a cop. There are no good cops. You are the brain-dead asshole for not thinking before you post.

[dillinger9999]

typical pig mother fuckers.. its time take action and over through these mother fuckers.

[InversionGameStudios]

Inversion Game Studios does not condone violence. We hope for peace to return. Check out for videos about our upcoming game to learn more about us.

[narmstrong80]

So, how come the beginning of these videos is always cut out.... you know, the part that makes the police initially take action. This video loses a lot of credibility because of this, there is no context to use when looking at the outcome. If you want people to support your cause for good reason you should post the story in its entirety and let them make their own decision on which side was in the right.

This kind of video makes you as bad as any of the major networks that spin news their way

[toughdog6789]

@narmstrong80 he probably only took his camera out in response to the action starting.

[narmstrong80]

@toughdog6789 the comment is more aimed at the incendiary nature of the title of the video along with the complete lack of back story. Honestly, it means nothing to me to see this guy being dragged out of there if I don't know what happened to get to that point. There is nothing defining any "injustice" that was done along with nothing justifying the policeman's actions. Its just a cheap propaganda video that unthinking people can get behind.

[toughdog6789]

@narmstrong80 i agree, i was merely replying to your comment.

[frankymafiaman]

@narmstrong80 I couldn't locate anymore of this action, but it appears the protestors had their things taken from their camp, and when they all decided to approach their camp site to get their things, they did it as a large group. The commotion started from there, but rest assured not one protestor was armed, threatening, or aggressive in any fashion UNTIL the cops fired the first flash grenade. That's when people started getting angry, but still no cop was touched. It turned into a war zone.

[thejimmyzshow]

@frankymafiaman They were warned, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of time, and decided to disobey. Stupid flea baggers.

[RealitysSuccessor]

@frankymafiaman Here's a much better video: /watch?v=QqNOPZLw03Q

[RealitysSuccessor]

@frankymafiaman Here's a much better video: /watch?v=QqNOPZLw03Q It still doesn't show what initially hit him but from someone closer so you can see that he was already on the ground when the police shot a flash-bang right next to him.

[MPviking89]

@narmstrong80 the second tear gas that was directed at him when he was wounded and at the people that was helping him was uncalled for but i havent seen any clip of the one that actually wounded him

[RealitysSuccessor]

@narmstrong80 You missed the point of the video. It doesn't matter what happen before it as there is no justifiable reason to attack someone with an explosive when they are obviously injured and laying on the ground. There is also no reason to attack the people trying to help him who were shouting for a medic.The officer was only a few feet away so there's no excuse that he didn't see what was happening.

[DCSnark]

Oh man... it officially just got a whole lot worse.

Poor guy.

[ChaotixMachine]

America is now fucked. All you stupid cunts didn't listen, and now you will pay the price. You'd better get your guns and shit now, because it's only going to get worse.

[ohyoujustmad]

i'm sorry for this comment.

Cloverfield: Oakland

[AOTBCREW]

shits fuckedup hope hes alright.

[kennyclark96080]

RON PAUL 2012 OR WE ARE DONE!

[jadyte991]

What nightmare is this? This is America.

[nickbcarey1]

This is not the America that I know.

[superxbetatester]

@nickbcarey1 yeah, the america u know, kills these guys right away, thugh they are usually 10 or less, its not the america u know because apperently people have ,more of a rational mind apparently

[tintlio]

things are about to get nasty. We need Ron Paul now or this country is done!

[Margate1989]

@tintlio Ron Paul.....really? I hope your joking. If not then, Ron Paul will turn this country into a nazi dictatorship. You really want a World War III with nazi's running the country?

[jawade42]

@Margate1989 What are you talking about? Are you retarded? I hat to post something so unintelligent but your post just deserves it.

[Margate1989]

@jawade42 Retarded....really? The irony in what you just said is amusing. Next time spell everything correctly please. Next......

[boredomstryks]

@Margate1989 That is the most ignorant comment I believe I have ever seen, and I've seen some pretty ignorant comments in my life. You obviously know absolutely nothing at all about Ron Paul. The real Nazis are the ones on the right and left who bailed out the banks, Wall Street and corporations that all these people are protesting, but don't even know why. Who voted against it? RON PAUL. Get a clue. Try looking up Fascism, National Socialism or Corporatism, learn something. He's against it all.

[Margate1989]

@boredomstryks Ron Paul is owned by the corporations that run this country dummy. He will do what his bosses tell him to do. Which means, he is part of the problem. Every single greedy criminal sitting in congress needs to be thrown out. That includes him. It is not about right vs left. It is about right vs wrong. The just and the unjust.

[kennyclark96080]

@Margate1989 ......please spill beer on your keyboard!......Ron Paul is the best candidate we have to restore America!...and everyone knows it,even the lame stream media!

[Margate1989]

@kennyclark96080 The lame stream media as in....fox news? Oh...please give me a break. The only people who think Ron Paul will be the messiah of this country are not part of the 99%. Every rich, greedy, corrupt politician on Capital Hill needs to be kicked out. It doesn't matter if its a republican or democrat. It's time to clean house and have a fresh start with an all new congress.

[Margate1989]

@kennyclark96080 Ohh...and I don't drink. I am straight edge. Drinking is for pussies who want to get drunk just to feel better when they are in a bad mood.

[kennyclark96080]

@Margate1989 Just shut up!,you sound like an asshole every time you type!......please spill syrup on your keyboard!......Ron Paul is the best candidate running,he is for the people not the banks, if you cannot see that then you should be the one shot in the head you retarded fucking idiot!

[Margate1989]

@kennyclark96080 Wow....pretty ironic. Wishing harm on another person? Resorting to name calling? Very ironic. Your acting like a damn kid. Grow up and learn to act like an adult. Then we'll talk.

[ChaotixMachine]

@tintlio No, the fact that you are willing to place your hopes, assets, and life on a politics system that has produced shit for decades says to me that America does not learn from its mistakes. All you people have to do is fight back, and change would happen. Instead, people turn to a symbol of hope, and expect them to solve everything wrong with their country. Oh man... you people even think that waving signs around where YOUR ENEMIES PERMIT YOU to is a good solution. Fucking retarded...

[superxbetatester]

@tintlio wut?

[mattbell555]

@tintlio I think the military gonna participate against the power

[wood9670]

@frankymafiaman, NO, WTF!!!!

Clicking dislike means LESS people will see it.

[MasterNameless77]

This is wrong wrong wrong...His family better sue the living daylights out of the Oakland PD... EPIC FAIL OPD!!!!

[frankymafiaman]

He's in the hospital in critical condition. :-(
