Oakland Mayor Says Occupy Protesters Using City As a “Playground”…

More like a battlefield.

OAKLAND (KCBS) — Oakland Mayor Jean Quan said she has had it with a small, violent fringe element within the Occupy Oakland protests and claimed it is using the city as a “playground.”

Quan spoke Monday in an interview following another chaotic round of street protests in which police units from surrounding areas were on hand to support the cash-strapped city’s police department.

“They’re taking away resources from my city and creating a situation where it’s making it more difficult for me to keep the city safer,” Quan said.

    You have a police department that, under your orders, did nothing to stop these animals. You instructed them against enforcing the law. You are a clown and you have forfeited the right to complain. Resign in disgrace.

    Playground, toilet.

    Tomayto, tomahto.

    Gosh, lefties are so enlightened and stuff.

    You are the mayor of the entire city – ALL of its inhabitants. Call out the police, make arrests, call the national guard. Be a freaking grown up

    @Noma:

    “Shameful”

    Very true. But alas, these unwashed overgrown infants don’t seem to possess a sense of shame.

    This is what (the end of) democracy looks like.

    “Small, violent fringe element in Occupy”? Hell, that IS Occupy.

  13. Dapandico says:

    It is always a small group not associated with OWS causing the problems.

    If you shoot them they will go to the hospital and stop what they are doing—-just shoot them in a foot or something but not in their ass…they use that a lot more than their feet.

    You handed them the Olive Branch and now you see what they have done in return.

    Some people just do not learn.

    What would happen if this city would ever face a real emergency?

    This is an easily controllable situation.

    Nobody to blame but themselves for letting this get out of hand. But then Pelosi did ask God to bless them! I’m sure God is in favor of all the violence.

    I know 3 different people that work in Prudhoe Bay that canceled vacations to Oakland because of worries about the OWS crowd.

    No, they’re using Oakland as decoy.

    All eyes are on the trouble in Oakland, while the Central Committee is planning it’s offensive for the Spring, in some secret location, know only to them and Barry’s Re-election Campaign.

    They’re just putting into action what they’ve been taught in the public school system and the radical left bay area handbook.

    There reaches a certain point when your neighbors can no longer save you from your own foolishness and the consequences must be paid. We can’t save you from your own self lit fire and we are not going to burn with you. You fools have been systematically creating this for decades, starting with what you teach your children. We told you how it was going to end and you mocked and berated and attacked us. You have all the tools you need to save yourself, but you have to want to pick them up and apply them, we can’t do that for you any more. Good luck Mayor.

    The stupid Democrat bitch Mayor is having buyer’s remorse and is now backpedaling from her own delusions that the OWS movement was some kind of peace and love bullshit from the 60s. Turns out it’s not, and now she wants to dissociate herself from the part that is the true core, that being the anarchists and the drooling communists and socialist morons.

    Too damn bad, Mayor Quan. You bought it–you own it.

    Me, me, me. My, my, my. I, I, I. It’s all about you, isn’t it Quan? The perfect public servant for the age of Obama.

    Occupiers are the real world zombies. Ever look at the footage of Occupier events such as the picture above and/or news footage and compare it to the zillion zombie movies/tv shows that have become a force all their own? See any similarities?

    It’s been a long time since I saw this flick but if I recall correctly, there was a scene showing saber wielding, mounted Cossacks putting a damper on the enthusiasm of a crowd of Bolshevik rabble rousers.

    Hmmm. Even if there were no such scene, I kinda like the idea.

    These clowns are bringing us dangerously to the point where they will have to be disabused of their notions of rights to occupy that which isn’t theirs. As in the case of high school bullies who, when they are finally brought to the realization that careless or undesirable actions lead to painful consequences, I’m afraid those lessons learned by the OWS unwashed will be much more lasting and severe. So go ahead, clowns, It’s time we waxed your butts with buckshot… someone should ask our dear leader Obama why the good people of this country (most of us) have to keep raising other peoples kids?
