Man, I'm telling you, if he is not found guilty. This will be the Raiders losing the Super Bowl on steroids. And you know what, it's not a black and white thing. It's a civilian vs. cop thing. You should see that protest. It was whites, blacks, mexicans,Latinos, asians.

Man, no @+@*, you just made my body tingle with what you said. People are trippin on this board about cars getting burn, and shops getting theirglasses broken. YES, that's a misfortune, for those people. But the MAIN protesters in this movement were civilized and acted accordingly. To the point,that the mayor of Oakland came to ground zero, and he had protesters following him to city hall. Tell me where a "RIOT" was going on and the mayor ofthat city can step foot in the middle of what was going on????? That's why I'm trying to tell these people on this board the Media is trying to makeOakland seem like a place out of control, but it ain't unless you live here and know what it is all about.Originally Posted by nbirn2103
Wow, I just got back from the Warriors game.
I haven't seen this many police or helicopters in a very long time.
It is without question that this BART policeman is culpable. It makes me ill to think about. RIP to Oscar Grant.
But at least the East Bay reacts to the this injustice. There aren't many other places in the world where organized protest and free speech are so highly lauded.
The power of the free speech movement & protest is deeply engraved in the history of the East Bay since before the Free Speech Movement. Something that I don't expect others not from here to understand.
They really need to let this HBO show happen.

to stories like the one that's being protested against.
