Thank you for doing this. Thanks to Spencer aka @oakfosho also. I'm so sick of the way ows, particularly occupyoakland, is being portrayed. There is good and bad in every group. Police, the media, even ows. People need to stop using the actions of a few to discredit the whole movement. I think its also important to note that Oakland PD has a LONG history of doing wrong. The Feds are ready to take it over. To end I give you two words, Scott Olsen
The fact is we the people have all the power, but won't use it. Not enough care. So, here is the program. The people RULE, not the politicians, NOT the MILITARY Each area separately chooses a new rep, each agreeing our present gov't is not for the people. This is our new Congress. They re-instate the constitution, declare NDAA is unconstitutional, along with our present officials. Now, if this voice of the people is ignored, i think everyone will realize we are still slaves to royalty.
lol @ 5:39 "its fun to stay at the YMCA" we fucking rule. It wasnt fun to stay at Santa Rita Jail however, as we were subject to conditions tantamount to torture ncluding denial of medical service including HIV medication, 51 people to a 20 person cell, only hot water to drink in an 80 degree cell, guards watching women urinate through the window, it goes on and on. THUMBS UP if you want to expose the horrors of the Prison System.
Affirmative the people will always rule, we are being re-educated of that fact in Afghanistan, Iraq, Tunisia, Egypt at great expense. Is it because we fail to learn the lessons of history? Agreed it is no fun in jail; the fun comes when the traitor fascists are in the gray bar hotel or dangling from a rope. No I don't advocate torture, that is perpetrated only by the enemy of the people and facists. When using the term, "person" to describe the people, I object. cont'd.
The term, "person' means mask or character. Are you a face mask? Re maltreatment by traitors, your patriotic duty, since they have all the weapons & can't intervene, is to document the evidence - everyone abused must draft affidavits as soon thereafter the crime. Get the evidence to a central clearing house(s).
Mass arrests. YES! Had to do SOMETHING with this new breed of "I'm entitled to the same quality of life as those who actually worked to earn it" ass-dooshes. YOU SIGNED THE CONTRACTS TO GET THE LOANS, NOBODY IS DOING ANYTHING WRONG BUT YOU! Get yourself out of debt, and never borrow again. Whoa, SOLUTIONS you don't want to hear. Kettle them, peace officers, get em, sick em!
@tr1bunus Absolutely right! Banks knew they would be bought up and bailed out. They loaned suckers money for cars and houses (knowing the greedy orcs couldn't actually afford it), foreclosed and repossessed the cars and houses (and now own them), are still going after sheep for money for the foreclosed cars and houses, AND got bought out and/or bailed out. It was the con of the century, and it couldn't have happened without GREEDY, DELUSIONAL, BABOON MINDED "look at me, I'm rich" sheeple!
The whole credibility of this video is lost because you edited it, there are 32 minutes of video, why is there only 17 mins video. Continuity of evidence lost and therefore pointing out Police do not issue three warnings is absolutely useles because you could easily have edited those parts out.

This is a good education for people who serve on Juries. When the police testify, people on juries generally believe them without question. Maybe its time to question that belief.
America has become a facist state that gives you the illusion of choice when it comes to elections. Both Obama and Romney serve the corrupt economic regime that is killing us right now. That's why people start going into the street because they have no alternative but to stand up to these criminal organisations called the Fed and WallStreet.
@DeterminedGoat Attempting to take over someone's private property is wrong. what if they wanted to take over YOUR property? fucking communists...What's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine.
@az111709 I didn't say that there aren't illegal things that are also wrong. I'm not the one speaking in generalities, you are. Speaking in generalities doesn't seem to do much to progress a conversation, does it?
The thing this video doesn't show is that there were more detainees in the YMCA that they brought out so them sitting down isn't the entire 400 of the group.
If only this were an isolated incident. It's pretty pathetic how powerless the state is to respond to genuine revolt. "Haha we closed the exits and then said disperse." These are not the tactics of conviction, they are deeply cynical. This should give the movement hope.
Amazing world. Much love to the people going out their and risking arrest and injury (at the hands of the people sworn to protect them no less) - Remember that while not all of us are out there marching there are a lot of us that support you, share videos and articles related to the movement and defend you against media brainwashed people. Keep up the good fight!
What happens when humans stop thinking as individuals?.. Hive mind.
When people stop thinking for themselves all humanity suffers.
Officers, wake up, your being used and controlled because you do not understand what is really going on in your world. Get informed and you will see what everyone else is.
Turn off the TV and turn on the PC, your no longer living in the same America.
Trust in yourself, not the one's giving you orders to start violent out breaks.
Excellent video evidence. Hard to dispute the facts.
OAKLAND, CA, 5TH MOST DANGEROUS CITY IN THE UNITED STATES, based on Murders, Rapes, Robberies, Aggravated Assaults.
100-200 Police Officers are called in from distant cities 10-20-30 miles away, to arrest 400 people peacefully marching on the street AND instead of cite and release, they are TAKEN TO JAIL.
That is the evidence. Hard to argue the facts.
Maybe this is why Oakland is the 5th MOST DANGEROUS CITY IN THE UNITED STATES.
Nobody broke into the building, based on the fact that the YMCA was open at the time - Saturday hours are 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM according to the YMCA website. On their main page, they even mention that staff escorted members out.
you know some of these cops have to be asking themselves "what the hell are we doing?" espescially those who are military veterans and have made an oath to the constitution as well as seen almost identical scenes of oppression by dictators in the middle east. how much did we spend to bring democracy to the middle east again?
In the beginning of this video, an opportunity was given for everyone to leave, but unfortunately, most dont use Common Sense when shit is about to happen, those that did leave before the shit hit the fan are the Smart Ones and the Dumb Ones stayed behind, especially at the end of this video.
@EvilFingers dumb ones hmmm dumb to use freedom of assembly rights isnt that one of your rights in america along with freedom of speech and rights to bare arms ect
@EvilFingers Really? Look again. The beginning shows smoke/teargas grenades, not an exit path.
Some resident bystanders recorded this incident, and the evidence that there was NO PATH through which to disperse is overwhelming. (User ryanjarvinen has footage he recorded from his apartment overlooking the park where the OPD initially surrounded everyone.) That's why the fence was pulled down--it was the only means out of the kettle.
@RazberyBandit Before the Tear Gassing began...there was ample time for anyone to leave, but the majority decided to stay and thats the choice they took and like I said before...those who use Common Sense, knew what was going to happen, which is like watching a movie when you see scene and will know something good or bad is going to happen.
@FeedyourMindwithFact I believe that the members of the #ows movement are being being targeted by politicians because the politicians work for the corporations and the corporations do not want Ron Paul as president. If they are charged with a felony, they will not be able to vote or own a gun. The more people who join, the more obvious this tactic will be. This is why violence should not erupt - so you are not charged with a crime and can vote for Dr. Paul or candidates supporting the people.
@califradmt that is a very valid point. I'm curious to how this notion that Obama is not for the people. What has he done that is against the people? He has created 3.1 million jobs in the last 22 months. He fought for the people over payroll tax cut. He has increased the GDP of America. Increasing manufacturing.
The only thing I could cite against Obama is the signing of NDAA but he had no choice as that is the budget for our defense. Which the GOP added the detention portion to. Not Obama.
@califradmt His list of achievements are much greater then I was able to list due to constraints. But they shall become prevalent during this next year.
The most beautiful thing to take away from this though, is our freedom of choice. The negative to take away, is that we're always being manipulated and separated by those who claim they fight it.
@FeedyourMindwithFact Of course when your people do something wrong they have to be a part of some conspiracy. Rationalization like this makes you look stupid.
@az111709 there is not a single ounce of evidence to prove that any occupiers had anything to do with it. Not to mention the march was being detained a good mile away from the crime scene. The actions seen that night that were blamed on OO are very uncharacteristic of anything we have seen this entire movement.
It is common campaign practice to plant disobedience people in crowds, shown by Romney. The NYPD does the same thing, as we saw on bank day
He has gotten so much better at being a camera man. In the beginning he was bias, but now he just tries to give more of an idea of what is going on. Him and Tim Cast are amazing.
...no mention of the 14 year old pregnant girl who was hospitalized after OPD beat her senseless with their batons for standing on the bumper of a media truck.
make sure you Google the Stafor/Occupy scandal. Stafor is a private intelligence company hired by the Austin, Tx police department to infiltrate the movement. Anonymous exposed them. Look it up. COINTELPRO (acronym for Counter Intelligence Program) was a series of covert, and often ILLEGAL, projects conducted by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) aimed at surveilling, infiltrating, discrediting, and disrupting domestic political organizations.
In a country that will not enable you to assemble in order to carry out a protest is unlawful, and at the very moment you do assemble to show your government that you are not happy with the way things are you must then immediately disperse or you will have to submit to your own arrest. The people of the USA are living in a police state, face it people you don't live in a democracy and you are not free.
@stophating1011 I agree the police are paid by big corp, but I certainly don't agree with not voting at all you are partly correct that most candidates are in it with big corps just as the police are but you do have one hope he has been saying the same things for a long time now all these things you see before us just like what is happening in this video of government getting out of control. I believe the people's last hope is Ron Paul he will set straight the wrongs in the USA.
I wish he had caught the very end of this when OakFoSho left the building and walked across the street to the YMCA to talk to a couple people cleaning up the mess that was left behind. He asked them if they wanted to comment on anything and the guy said there were some "bodily fluids." These people were kept in zip ties for four and a half hours. Similar situation with the raid of Occupy LA, where people were kept on buses for periods of 7 hours, men and women soiled themselves. just inhumane
TRAPPED! Oakland Good Squad should be under arrest...the key word here is "SUBMIT" your under arrest. Under a democratic president th United States of America is using tactics of entrapment, nothing consitutional about what what these goons did. Stop saying the police are part of the 99%....they are representing the 1% that dont deserve to be considered part of the 99%. the kettle was planned people...fascist police state of US underway.
You have failed to disperse after several Lawful orders to disperse??? You mean UNLAWFUL order to disperse. Unlawful order to stop peaceful gathering. This is china, this is Korea, this is the police state, you are no longer aloud to protest.
Resisting arrest is a bullsh*t charge. It should only apply when a real crime was committed and convicted... otherwise its your right to resist unlawful arrest.
Love how even the cop on the megaphone has to keep reminding himself that his orders are supposed to be lawful, like he knows he's wiping his arse on the Bill of Rights.
Wait, no, I don't love it; it's contemptible, and screw disciplinary action, that fascist stooge should go straight to jail for this travesty.
Tactics for Oak folk (hopefully it helps). All you need is someone with a megaphone when things are calm and it will increase the number of people who get out.
Single words and a direction will help coordinate. "Rush Front", "Escape Left", etc. Just because you aren't perfectly organized, group action is possible. Call out kettles, don't walk into them. Being followed means a kettle is coming. Be kind to our liberal college friends, there are more of them. They'll figure it out.
I hope those flag burners were paid provocateurs or anarchists. The shit CANNOT happen with the Occupy movement. It tarnishes it a mainstream (stupid) America will label you as crazies immediately and see you as terrorists. The image of flag burning is WAY too similar to middle east countries.
@Logicalification no its not these people are getting kettled all these people are doing is protesting that's the American way if u don't like protesting then either ignore it or leave the country they are getting beat and arrested buy the people there paying to protect them. what good is a American flag without a constitution?
@amhipthitd Dude, calm down. I'm 100% in support of this movement. But what I'm talking about is public perception. OWS has prided itself on being nonviolent, because they know that will tarnish the image. Fox NEWS will have a field day with a flag burning, and all middle America-that SHOULD support you- won't. Burning a flag is something the news would report from Middle East as extremely hateful to USA. Having protesters do it makes you look like outsiders, not angry CITIZENS.
@idiotfinder911 In the beginning it was thousands. It's dropped with a lack of results and having been around for months. Also, the Tea Party wasn't sitting on a location for months in protest, they would show up and then leave.
@Logicalification It's January. Even in California the weather is bad, cold and foggy (dangerous to drive) and often rains. When it warms up, and people begin spending time outdoors, they will flock to gatherings. Winter months are a bad time to expect people to show up.
The Tea Party folks had to go back to work. Also, the Tea Party didnt throw condoms at school girls, destroy children art in a museum while destroying historic artifacts, burnnig the American flag, etc....
The OWS movement is a movement of mentally ill people. There are massive drugs, killings, rape, racism, segragation.
@idiotfinder911 Are you serious? I'd love to see some hard evidence on any of these ridiculous allegations. You're either trying to break the movement or you're one of the many Tea party people that doesn't realize the Occupy movement is fighting for YOU TOO. Do you make over $10 million a year? If not, pay attention to what they're protesting for. Banking reform, campaign reform, education that isn't useless and a chance for the middle class to succeed. Massive Killings? Cmon.
@Logicalification You think you are fighting for us, but your not. The First amendment does not guarantee your crowding public spaces or the streets and then defying the police, you are threatening public safety, like when you jumped in front of my truck to block off Ogawa square and I had to make a u turn just to get to dinner on the next block over. We believe in the freedom to contract even if sometimes we lose our money. The existence of rich people doesn't bother us.
@AynManRand With your nickname it's clear you and I will never agree. Im not mad there's rich people, I'm mad there are people who acquired millions and billions of dollars, then paid for laws to be passed that benefit them and hurt everyone else. You or I can't make the same investments into hedge funds, because you don't have $100M to invest. They pay off the SEC, their lobbyists write the laws, they destroy home owners and the only people it hurts is the 99%.
@Logicalification Ok, lets say its all true. GET RID OF THE SEC. Your just paying for the illusion. Some of the leftist critique was correct, the middle class spent the entire cold war working the system of exploitation to its advantage. Manipulating money through the IMF, FED, and continuously tweeking the tax code. And yes Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, which ironically pushed first time home owners out of the market and feed the insane house flipping and speculation.
Rush the weakest fucking Police line! That's how you escape a kettle. If you have 500 protesters running full speed at 30-40 cops, they are gonna GTFO of the way, I guarantee it.
After the cops Loud annonced 'you are all under arrest', it would been great to hear a 3 count then of a reply 'Fuck You' from the Protesters all in harmony. Next time maybe..
Wow, with police acting like this probably bought off by the rich to arrest the protesters. I am really ashamed to be an American where you can't even protest without getting arrested...
I would Believe the Y opened their doors for this shit. They were prolly inside watching the stream i'll bet. If the Y did assist.. Right On mah brothers...
It is obvious that the police were trying to block any means of leaving for the protesters. They are trying to pressure them into a corner to get a given reaction! This is some underhanded tactics... They do not deserve the honor the badge they carry should hold. No more then petty thugs!
America is now a battlefield. That means war has been declared against those who would be free from tyranny. The war for freedom of the mind will not be won if everyone rolls over and gets arrested. War is a terrible thing, but the tactics of war can be used to help the non-violent movement win. Simple things like understanding that walking right into a kettle is just stupid. Be FULLY aware of the surroundings, both where you are and where you are going. I hope that with every arrest we learn.
Do not have protest on streets that are closed. Large open areas are great for protest. The police in this vid only needed to block 2 directions, make these police officers work. I like the leaderless idea, but these protesters look like chickens with their heads cut off. People need to step up and form plans to avoid situations where police have natural and man made advantages. Maybe the military and police people in the protest can step up and use those military minds to HELP the cause.
Im getting fed up of seeing protesters get worked by police. Change will come when we flex our muscle. I AM NOT CONDONING HURTING OR INJURING POLICE. 500 people moving in unison could break through those weak police lines. Police lines are only 1-2 rows deep, all you need is one penetration point, and the line falls. Police train to arrest protesters, protesters should start training to not be arrested. We have them beat in numbers, but not in tactics.
@Logicalification Know yourself and your enemy you will win 100 battles without harm. Know yourself but not the enemy you will lose one for every win. Not knowing yourself and not knowing your enemy you will always lose. Reality is that the cops will beat and arrest the protesters. They work on behalf of the system and are paid to suppress uprisings. All im saying is the protesters will never win as long as they allow the small group of police men push them around. They need to be more prepared
@ironlion7800 Absolutely, Sun Tsu's doctrine applies hea. You raise an important point - in my limited and humble opinion, the people really don't know themselves and their inherent power. Therein lies the biggest problem in this "battle". I'm sure the colonists, British subjects in N.A., had some idea of their own identity besides being terrorists, insurgents, traitors to their own country/empire. Some of you may remember Georgie had a price on his head. continued below.
@nonwo10 Then again I don't believe the people really know who is their real enemy besides themselves. A small correction, if I may, the so-called "system" mentioned belongs to the people. The governmental apparatus, including the cops & the mayor, belong to the people - any objections? The people, OO, must zealously prosecute crime, incl. cop abuse, and demand their servants serve the people. The law and facts are on the people's side. continued below
Agreed, the shadow elite has usurped the institutions of gov't. and turned its forces against the people. I believe as imperfect as this Occupy movement is, this movement is attempting to throw out the rascals - shadow elite and the thugs that work for them (color of authority). Argeed, what is required is intestnal fortitude, courage, not unlike what the colonists mustered against the world's greatest power. I personally would not sell short OO from continuing the battle. cont'd
It seems to me the choice is enslavement or freedom. What would you choose? Agreed, if you choose the latter, as I'd expect you'd do, you'd have to (assuming lessening costs) organize and unite, organize and unite and then some more. A strategy must be mapped out w/ contingency planning and then an execution plan. There must be short term, itermediate and long term goals identified. For now I'd suggest starting w/ the organic law - fed. Const. 1787/1791. Why re-invent the wheel?
@nonwo10The fact is we the people have all the power, but won't use it. Not enough care. So, here is the program. The people RULE, not the politicians, NOT the MILITARY Each area separately chooses a new rep, each agreeing our present gov't is not for the people. This is our new Congress. They re-instate the constitution, declare NDAA is unconstitutional, along with our present officials. Now, if this voice of the people is ignored, i think everyone will realize we are still slaves to royalty.
@nonwo10 You ideas we well understood, but believing the law is on our side means nothing. Even if you get a majority agreement that we overturn all, do you think the powers in office are going to graciously step down? That is like a sheep trying to explain to a pack of hungry wolves why they should not eat them. (I apologize to our noble Wolf for using such an example, but still true).
Peaceful protest need to start having there own security. A show of power by the people to overwhelm police would send a clear message. If the police do not uphold their oath, then citizens must take action.400 people can non-violently run through police lines. Jogging is not illegal. Jogging with football and hockey helmets and shoulder pads is not illegal. Non violent does not mean be rolled over. There are many non-violent ways that crowd could have destroyed the police line. 20+:1 us:police.
@wiseoldsnail -- I honestly don't know either way, but do consider that flag burning is one of those things that sets off a knee-jerk reaction in many people. It is a good way to turn people away from having any sympathy towards Occupy. Plus none of those 20 people were apprehended despite being in City Hall which ought to have a lot of security.
@darciecal ...what is interesting is that the 20 people were not arrested...these are the people that need to named and called out...Are we certain they were not arrested? Were they paid provocateurs? It seems we need more journalists working together, so we can get more real footage of these events... especially capturing the ones creating the violent acts! Main stream media is NOT on the Occupiers side.
@imagepeace I completely agree with the last half of your post. Inside streamers need to band together and cooperate. By working together, they're not only assured someone gets the story/shot, but ensure the fact that each of them is protected by video evidence of another. There are actually instructional videos here on Youtube outlining how to do so effectively.
@KevinSupportsProp215 When they were acting like a bunch of dumb asses and breaking property and when those who don't have enough common sense to leave when other dumb asses break property stay to see what happens. l
The MSM is not going to report on any Occupy Movement protests. They are using thought control on America just like they do in China. Watch this video---it is not really a Ron Paul video--they only talk about him in the last minute or so. It is about what the MSM is doing now, and it is starting to get really scary. Nothing the media does is an accident. YOUTUBE VIDEO TITLE: SINISTER Ron Paul Blackout?
The renegade group that burned the flag at City Hall -- I bet they were "plants". In the Sixties the gov't planted people in the Civil Rights and Peace movements to do that kind of thing -- stir up trouble, incite violence, do something inflammatory to discredit the group. The timing of these events is very suspicious.
Thank you for doing this. Thanks to Spencer aka @oakfosho also. I'm so sick of the way ows, particularly occupyoakland, is being portrayed. There is good and bad in every group. Police, the media, even ows. People need to stop using the actions of a few to discredit the whole movement. I think its also important to note that Oakland PD has a LONG history of doing wrong. The Feds are ready to take it over. To end I give you two words, Scott Olsen

What happens when humans stop thinking as individuals?.. Hive mind.
When people stop thinking for themselves all humanity suffers.
Officers, wake up, your being used and controlled because you do not understand what is really going on in your world. Get informed and you will see what everyone else is.
Turn off the TV and turn on the PC, your no longer living in the same America.
Trust in yourself, not the one's giving you orders to start violent out breaks.
Peace is the answer.

Excellent video evidence. Hard to dispute the facts.
OAKLAND, CA, 5TH MOST DANGEROUS CITY IN THE UNITED STATES, based on Murders, Rapes, Robberies, Aggravated Assaults.
100-200 Police Officers are called in from distant cities 10-20-30 miles away, to arrest 400 people peacefully marching on the street AND instead of cite and release, they are TAKEN TO JAIL.
That is the evidence. Hard to argue the facts.
Maybe this is why Oakland is the 5th MOST DANGEROUS CITY IN THE UNITED STATES.

Some resident bystanders recorded this incident, and the evidence that there was NO PATH through which to disperse is overwhelming.

That's why the fence was pulled down--it was the only means out of the kettle.

@FeedyourMindwithFact I believe that the members of the #ows movement are being being targeted by politicians because the politicians work for the corporations and the corporations do not want Ron Paul as president. If they are charged with a felony, they will not be able to vote or own a gun. The more people who join, the more obvious this tactic will be. This is why violence should not erupt - so you are not charged with a crime and can vote for Dr. Paul or candidates supporting the people.

@califradmt that is a very valid point. I'm curious to how this notion that Obama is not for the people. What has he done that is against the people? He has created 3.1 million jobs in the last 22 months. He fought for the people over payroll tax cut. He has increased the GDP of America. Increasing manufacturing.
The only thing I could cite against Obama is the signing of NDAA but he had no choice as that is the budget for our defense. Which the GOP added the detention portion to. Not Obama.

make sure you Google the Stafor/Occupy scandal. Stafor is a private intelligence company hired by the Austin, Tx police department to infiltrate the movement. Anonymous exposed them. Look it up.

In a country that will not enable you to assemble in order to carry out a protest is unlawful, and at the very moment you do assemble to show your government that you are not happy with the way things are you must then immediately disperse or you will have to submit to your own arrest.

He asked them if they wanted to comment on anything and the guy said there were some "bodily fluids." These people were kept in zip ties for four and a half hours. Similar situation with the raid of Occupy LA, where people were kept on buses for periods of 7 hours, men and women soiled themselves. just inhumane

Tactics for Oak folk (hopefully it helps). All you need is someone with a megaphone when things are calm and it will increase the number of people who get out.
Single words and a direction will help coordinate. "Rush Front", "Escape Left", etc. Just because you aren't perfectly organized, group action is possible. Call out kettles, don't walk into them. Being followed means a kettle is coming. Be kind to our liberal college friends, there are more of them. They'll figure it out.

Do not have protest on streets that are closed. Large open areas are great for protest. The police in this vid only needed to block 2 directions, make these police officers work. I like the leaderless idea, but these protesters look like chickens with their heads cut off. People need to step up and form plans to avoid situations where police have natural and man made advantages. Maybe the military and police people in the protest can step up and use those military minds to HELP the cause.

A strategy must be mapped out w/ contingency planning and then an execution plan. There must be short term, itermediate and long term goals identified.

Peaceful protest need to start having there own security. A show of power by the people to overwhelm police would send a clear message. If the police do not uphold their oath, then citizens must take action.400 people can non-violently run through police lines. Jogging is not illegal. Jogging with football and hockey helmets and shoulder pads is not illegal. Non violent does not mean be rolled over. There are many non-violent ways that crowd could have destroyed the police line. 20+:1 us:police.
