Arrest of San Francisco Activist Protesting the Installation of Smart Meters

An activist protesting against the installation of 'smart' meters was arrested today for civil disobedience. Amy O'Hair was arrested at Monterey and Edna in the Sunnyside neighborhood of San Francisco at 9.30 on Saturday 18 June 2011.

She sat on the hood of a smart meter installation truck to prevent installation of smart meters and refused to move. The police were called and arrested her. It was early in the morning, and few people were around, but a bystander waiting at a bus stop gave support. Amy was taken to 425 Seventh Street (Bryant Police station) to be cited.

@amitbarfs Only an ignorant person such as yourself thinks its about helping the environment or cutting costs

@poppanolan It sucks as much as liberal/socialists handing over their lives to the central planners. THE ELITES. Bush and his family are evil. Obama and slick willy, along with Bush Cheney are on ONE TEAM... we are on the OTHER.

@poppanolan How is that with the Bush police state under facade of "war on terror" DEBT SOWING?

Smart metering will eventually allow generators to charge consumers real-time prices (which are sometimes negative!)- a great thing for the market. Certainly nobody who supports liberty believes that regulators should have the authority to set electricity prices as they do now! Long live market pricing!

@6rpima Over 330 million of us...Against a few scattered corrupt fascist minions in power. Yet these corporatist assholes have complete full control and unrestricted power over us to dictate every aspect our lives and future in America. We the MILLIONS must bow to agendas of the 1000s. What the fuck is wrong with this picture?

[rg2027x]

She deserves a MEDAL. What a fucking farce "land of the free"....Yeah you are "free" to do as we tell you. Now sit down, shut up and accept our agenda without resistance like GOOD LITTLE OBEDIENT SLAVES. After all, we know what's best for you.

Why doesn't this "law enforcement" joke arrest the fucking utility companies for forcing pulsed radiation emitting surveillance devices on us installed on our residence without consent or choice. As dumbed-down, divided & conquered America sleeps..

Cover all smart meters with aluminum foil to stop the broadcast of RF radiation.
