Let's see.........about 5:00am somewhere around 500 police from various jurisdictions around Oakland used tear gas and bean bags fired from shotguns to forcibly remove about 150 folks occupying downtown Oakland. The reasons cited were primarily about health and safety....They arrested about 80 people most of whom were/are cited and released. The protesters are re-grouping right now outside the Oakland Public Library.

You can read all about it at any of the Oakland/SF TV stations and also KPFA free radio has the protesters version.

The news story I read on said that there were only 17 cops but the video shows different.

For everyone who is reading but not participating, I just want to say that your voices are missed here. Even if you don't agree with some of what we are talking about, the Occupy movement is about inclusion and that means everyone, not just the people we agree with. So PLEASE tell us what you are thinking and share your personal stories/points of view.

Hey Drew! I have read the whole thread but not commented. The absolute best thing about OWS is that it is getting some people involved in social justice who may never have been so before. That is a great thing.
