Video: Oakland disciplines 44 police officers after Occupy Oakland protests, Union blames politicians “indecisiveness” for problems
More at link. Also, a CBS local report here.
The Oakland police chief wants to discipline 44 officers over the Occupy protests. The city hired an outside group to investigate more than 1,100 complaints against police. On Friday night one of the protesters injured by officers told us he thinks it has taken too long, but it is a step in the right direction.
I gotta take the side of the police on this one.
In Oakland, there is a large street crime element in Occupy’s ranks.
The vast majority of these complaints have been tossed out, because they’re bogus.
The bogus claims are an important element in Occupy’s war strategy against the police.
The chief sold out his officers and buckled to political pressure.
