Occupy San Diego facing police violence.
Reports via twitter are that 4-5 people have been maced, people are getting kicked and elbowed by the police and now the police have blocked them into the civic center, with no viable exits. WTF is going on here? Peaceful protestors consitute agressive police actions?

Call Mayor Sanders now to voice your disapproval - (619) 236-6330.

4. We're looking at the last gasps of this sort of thing, hopefully.
This sort of ugliness is tolerable no longer.

17. ew...
I have learned to disregard the comments on most of this because there are so many "haters" out there. I guess they are hoping to be in that 1% someday. lol...

Long is a doosh and NBC plays him out like the good guy.

16. yeah, I don't usually
and to be honest, I don't pay attention to the reporters, I just watch what is going on. However there isn't too much out there on SD.

Good luck!! I'm at Occupy Berkeley tonight and tomorrow. :)

14. I thought SD proper was kind of purplish
and you had to go out into the county to get to full-scale teabagger hell.

18. Teabaggers, lol...
For some reason I get a visual every time I hear that term and just have to laugh.

I don't know if SD is predominantly Tea Party or simply Repuke. When all the TP BS was going on, SD wasn't too heavily involved. Don't really know, as I don't follow TP or Repuke stuff too much.

And yes, We are all now represented by the color Purple. The color of OWS :)

19. "Purplish" in this context means a mixture of Red and Blue
with neither really predominating.
