Oakland police shut down new Occupy encampment

30 December 2011

Oakland Police officers raided another occupy encampment Wednesday evening, after protestors had claimed the empty lot as a drug-and-alcohol-free “winter safe haven” for occupiers and the San Francisco Bay Area’s burgeoning homeless population.

The most recent attack on the occupy protestors is of a piece with efforts to suppress the protest movement since its inception.
