Oakland Mayor Jean Quan Admits Cities Coordinated Crackdown on Occupy Movement
Embattled Oakland Mayor Jean Quan, speaking in an interview with the BBC (excerpted on The Takeaway radio program–audio of Quan starts at the 5:30 mark), casually mentioned that she was on a conference call with leaders of 18 US cities shortly before a wave of raids broke up Occupy Wall Street encampments across the country. “I was recently on a conference call with 18 cities across the country who had the same situation. . . .”
Mayor Quan then rambles about how she “spoke with protestors in my city” who professed an interest in “separating from anarchists,” implying that her police action was helping this somehow.

I hope everyone realizes that this is not the BIG BAD ogre federal government cracking down on people’s right to peacefuly protest and demonstrate. This is a coalition of city officials taking power IN THEIR HANDS to oppress on their own judgment call and power/authority. This is the VERY reason that political parties and the Tea Party movement in particular want to suppress federal government. It is the only entity powerful enough to trump the little demigogues from having their day in the sun, in coordinating squashing the OCCUPY movement.
It is imperative that we do not allow the Corporations, Wall Street and lobbyists to control Washington butjuste as important that we not allow state legislatures to supercede federal government because therein lies our rights, constitution and freedoms.
Think about it when you vote for local politicians of all genres, Representatives, Senate, Governor, etc. etc.. Those who are running on a few hot button items that no one can do anything about, like Mississippi’s personhood law for example, are not always caring about your rights, freedom, jobs or even your homes.
Think Bondi and others. . . .
Staying home from the polls in disgust and allowing banks and Wall Street to control all aspects of government IS NOT AN OPTION!
We must develop candidates for the people vote them in and control them with our vote, term limits and voice.
Very well said!!!
ALINA…you blew your cover a long time ago..
Talktotennessee: Did you forget your sarcasm tag?
Excellent post. It’s also critical to watch carefully who’s running for local judgeships. Right now the only group that seems the slightest bit interested in following the law for the people vs. the elite are some local and state judges.
Well, outside of FL of course.
Sure…it is and EVERYONE SEES this is an ILLEGAL AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL TYRANNY…THROW the TRAITOR POLITICIANS OUT AMERICA!!!
There is a name for what is causing this OPPRESSION OF THE PEOPLE….IT IS CALLED…FASCISM…I don’t give a damn which branch of Government this is, they are all promoting the same NEW WORLD ORDER POLICY and are oppressing the people equally… Corporatism and Government acting as ONE to oppress the people is FASCISM….A Government that is CORRUPT AND OPPRESSING THE PEOPLE… VIOLATES OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS….The real question is WHO OWES ALL OF THE DEBT???? NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE…..WALL STREET….WHO IS ALLOWING THE PEOPLE TO BE ROBBED AND STRIPPED OF ALL OF OUR ASSETS IN ORDER TO PAY FOR WALL STREETS MASSIVE $600 TRILLION DOLLAR COLLATERAL FRAUD DEBT CRIME SPREE????? THE U.S. GOVERNMENT and THE POLITICIANS….and THE JUDGES…..THE FIRST AMENDMENT GIVES WE THE PEOPLE A RIGHT TO PEACEFUL PROTEST THE GOVERNMENT FOR REDRESS OF GRIEVANCES…. AND THE SECOND AMENDMENT, THE RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS WAS PUT IN PLACE TO PROTECT WE THE PEOPLE FROM A GOVERNMENT THAT IS CORRUPT AND OPPRESSING THE PEOPLE…THROW THEM OUT AMERICA….!!!!!
Ivent,
I’ve been trying to catch with you! Since you’ve done so much research on what
has brought about our crisis in this country, I’ve got a link you need to read and
use in your search of our history.

The research being reported here goes back to the 1910s when the socialists and communists
began doing serious damage to our government. They have truly come as close as they
can to over throwing our Constitution without firing a shot. Be sure to read the comments
too. This lawyer has been fighting against this for years, he’s been sanctioned by the federal
courts in representing the people instead of the government cronies.
Hi readdocs…! I will check that link out… I do believe that to be true, that is what they want complete communism and they wanted to accomplish that without ever firing a shot..(an attorney cofirmed that to me as well).Thank God for some really honest Americans who recognized what they were all up to….Even Fox believe it or not, let it slip out that Communism is what they want…Gotta be in the right place at the right time to catch the clues and spread the truth like wildfire…..!
