Occupy Oakland

Image: YouTube After suffering being struck by a projectile at Tuesday's Occupy Oakland evictions, Iraq war veteran Scott Olsen is lucid and awaiting brain surgery.

The Guardian reports Olsen "responded with a very large smile" when his parents arrived from Wisconsin to visit him at the hospital. Medical officials say Olsen's able to write and hear, but is having trouble speaking.

Meanwhile, Oakland's Mayor Jean Quan who left town after authorizing the raid, has separated herself from the police. Quan said, "I only asked the chief to do one thing: to do it when it was the safest for both the police and the demonstrators."

Her interim police chief then denied his men had used rubber bullets or flashbang grenades. His goal he said, "... isn't to cause injury to anyone."

In response to the police tactics, OccupyMARINES has issued a formal list of requests in Oakland. Whether these requests are pursued or met should be an indicator of how strong or extensive this branch of the movement has become.

Original demands below:

OccupyMARINES Have Watched Closely The Response From The OPD, The Mayor, The Governor, And All Others Involved In The Oakland Attack On Peaceful Demonstrators; We Have Observed These Pathetic Cowards Refuse Responsibility For Their Actions That May Very Well Alter The Course Of Our Brother’s Life. Additionally, Many Other Police Departments Nationwide Deploy Similar Riot Tactics Against Demonstrators Honoring The OWS 8, A Peaceful Declaration Of Assembly; We Will Organize Peacefully Against These Departments.

In Response To The Oakland Shooting Of Scott Olsen OccupyMARINES Request The Following:

The GOP Cowards Responsible For Influencing This Event Be Brought To Justice. Track Names And Photos Of Each And Email Them To Us Identify The 300 OPD Riot Officers By Name, Photo, And Badge Number With Boots On The Ground Engaging In Illegal Excessive Force Acts Against Peaceful Americans For Prosecution. Identify The Officer Responsible For Harming Scott Olsen By Name And Photo For Prosecution. The Honorable Resignation Of Oakland Mayor Jean Quan And Acting Police Chief Howard Jordan. A Public Apology From California Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. For The Unlawful Injury Of Our Brother Scott Olsen.

We Fully Intend To Make An Example, Legally And Peacefully, Of The Corwards Associated With Harming An American Veteran. We Will Not Stop Until Our Aforementioned Demands Are Met In Their Entirety.

God Be With Scott Olsen, We Pray A Speedy Recovery For Him And His Mother.

Semper Fidelis Scott Olsen

Keep Pushing Forward America We Support You.

The GOP Cowards Responsible For Influencing This Event Be Brought To Justice.

Who are the GOP cowards ?

Otherwise, this event is tragic for the ex-marine but works to the good of our society if the Marines begin to see that they too are serving evil and should remain poised to protect the people regardless of orders from above.

To share some information I have discovered in the last year, remember the Veterans for Peace and their D.C. protest last year? The Marine identified in this thread is a member of that organization. See http://www.veteransforpeace.org/

I have been reading all over the web remarks identified as being from "Iraq War Veterans" on forums where I would not have expected to find past or present military members. I have yet to find any reference to their being VFP members until I went to their home page.

In my research last year for confirmation that the D.C. protest was something I could support, I soon discovered that some of the "leaders" of Veterans for Peace are known leftists. I would suspect they get monies for activity in protests such as what we are seeing now as coming from some of the known left wing contributors.

Like the twohundred million the Koch bros are spending to preserve the cosy status quo?

One thing is certain in my opinion. We must expose the entire criminal enterprise to these young people and quit perpetuating the two party myth.

Patrick Caddell and Douglas Schoen: Expect a Third-Party Candidate in 2012 - WSJ.com

The United States is in the midst of what we would both call a prerevolutionary moment, and there is widespread support for fundamental change in the system. An increasing number of Americans are now searching beyond the two parties for bold and effective leadership.

A Rasmussen Reports poll conducted earlier this month found that "just 17% of likely U.S. voters think that the federal government today has the consent of the governed," while an extraordinary 69% "believe the government does not have that consent."

What's more, a poll of 1,000 Americans conducted by Douglas E. Schoen LLC in April found that a solid majority of Americans are now looking for alternatives to the two-party system. Overall, a majority (57%) of all respondents said there is a need for a third party.

In my opinion the addition of a third party does little to effect the necessary change because the "FED" still owns it. Much of the gargantuan FEDERAL fraud is made up of stay in place bureaucrats that would undermine Ron Paul's best efforts.

Sure, Ron Paul could resort to the issuance of Executive Orders and the veto pen to accomplish some of the changes necessary, but this would amount to his being a benificent dictator rather than the malevolent ones we've become accustomed to.

The "FED" has to be escorted out of our lives permanently before we have a snowball's chance in hell of returning to the "organic" Constitutional Government we desire.

Maybe Ron Paul can accomplish this feat but I doubt it.

The "Fed" has to go.
