"Occupy Oakland" Sign: "Fight Directly For Communism"

Here's a sign seen at the "Occupy Oakland" demonstrations.  It shows pretty much what the "Occupy" movements are all about.

The fools with the sign want to abolish banks.  We all have our preferences.  Personally, I want to abolish communism.

More Violence and Mayhem at "Occupy Oakland"

Here is the report from the Oakland Police Department:

"Oakland Police responded to a late night call that protesters had broken into and occupied a downtown building and set several simultaneous fires," the statement read. "The protesters began hurling rocks, explosives, bottles, and flaming objects at responding officers. Several private and municipal buildings sustained heavy vandalism."

Some photos from Oakland:

Prominent Democrats, including Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Barney Frank have encouraged and given moral support to the mobs now destroying property in Oakland and elsewhere.  See video below.

"Occupy Oakland": Property Destruction and Lawless Mayhem

The Morning Examiner reports "Oakland Has Been Occupied":

American flags were burned. ATMs were destroyed. Occupiers were hit by cars as they jaywalked across the street. In other words, Occupy Oakland’s general strike turned into lawless mayhem as anyone with an ounce of common sense would have predicted.

True, the Occupy Oakland general strike was not entirely violent. Throughout most of the day occupiers only terrorized shoppers, destroyed private property, and shut down commerce at the Port of Oakland. The real mayhem didn’t begin until protesters occupied an abandoned building near San Pablo Avenue and 17th Street. The occupiers erected barricades using tires, pallets, and garbage cans and set them on fire when riot police began evicting them from the building. An all-out battle followed with police using tear gas, flash grenades, and bean bag rounds on the occupiers, and the occupiers responding with firecrackers and bottles.

By 12:30 AM, the occupiers had been removed from the building and retreated to their home base at Frank Ogawa Plaza. Despite all the damage and mayhem they have caused, the liberal leaders of Oakland only want to embrace the movement further. The Oakland City Council will take up a resolution today supporting the Occupy encampment and calling on city administrators to “collaborate with protesters.” The resolution is expected to pass over the objection of Council President Larry Reid. “We’ve given up control of the city” to the occupiers, Reid said. “We don’t call the shots anymore – they do.”
