Abusive #OccupyOakland Protesters Ban Media From Tent City

Occupy Oakland protesters have turned on the media banning reporters from the tent city they've erected in a public park. KTVU's Claudine Wong was verbally abused and intimidated on camera in a very tense scene early this morning.

We are investigating further reports of violent threats and racial taunting involving other news crews in Oakland.

#Occupy wants to keep that pesky media from witnessing rapes, kidnappings, child molestations, and of course – drug abuse.

The Lamestream would probably join in.

SupernaturalCat   October 19th, 2011 - 9:09 am

What a travesty that groups can hold America hostage and the POTUS says he's on their side!

mustafamonde   October 19th, 2011 - 9:10 am

Obama's brown shirts hard at work.

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:10 am

Banning the Free Press.
Just like the Communists do in Cuba and North Korea.

Call me old fashioned.
If you believe enough in a cause to support it, then stand up like a man, and state your position, clearly and unequivocally.

Don't hide behind a bandanna.

ratfinder   October 19th, 2011 - 9:10 am

we need to send a couple of drones and drop some bombs on these terrorists….

mickigal   October 19th, 2011 - 9:11 am

And yet the majority of the media supports and advocates this fascist madness.

blame_canada929   October 19th, 2011 - 9:11 am

Maybe theyre eating some "rich" people?

1GooDDaDDy   October 19th, 2011 - 9:13 am

Big P,
I came to make one of my usual snarky comments, but you nailed it in the first response.

"The Lamestream would probably join in."
I think they've been "joining in" since the 60's.

Well done.

Not Over.

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:13 am

Obama will go down in history,as making a poor choice.

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:13 am

Mmmm! Tasty!

LakewoodEd   October 19th, 2011 - 9:13 am

Gotta hide your face just like the KKK.

ShiftyMH   October 19th, 2011 - 9:14 am

Why not walk through with private security? They have no authority to ban anyone.

freedomliberty13   October 19th, 2011 - 9:15 am

Pehaps this antagonistic socialist learned his tactics from the videotapes of the Philly voting location where the New Black Panthers intimidated voters. The Oakland thugs must know that there is a little chance of being procecuted by the City of Oakland as there is that the New Black Panthers would be procecuted by Eric Holder & DOJ. We have evolved past the "rule of law" to the "rule of the winning party spoils system."

Syrin23   October 19th, 2011 - 9:15 am

The SesmaeStreeters are acting the way they accused the Tea Party of acting without having a single shred of evidence. Meanwhile we have a MOUNTAIN of evidence, and they are in full fledge denial.

So much fail it's almost hard to grasp. Seriously, the "mind" that can hate the Tea party based on their view of it being racist with NO evidence yet adopt these feral pack animals is truly willfully closed and beyond help.

BOspreadnwealth   October 19th, 2011 - 9:15 am

They also don't want them to see any plans they are making for organized armed resistance to the City of Oakland, the State of California, or the United States of America.

MLCross   October 19th, 2011 - 9:16 am

So, who thinks that the media will learn something about exactly who the OWS crowd is from this experience?

EricBrodin   October 19th, 2011 - 9:17 am

They remind me of Putin, Chavez and Castro.

Omnivorous   October 19th, 2011 - 9:19 am

It's a revolution !
It's coming to your neighborhood.
You are either part of the solution, or part of the problem.

ivanhoe9   October 19th, 2011 - 9:20 am

So let's see if I have this right. The anarchist is complaining about the police activity. OK. Well you need social stability to prosecute the police if a complaint is filed…oh wait! It's a revolution! Ok got it…I forgot. Go ahead officer.

WyckHolland   October 19th, 2011 - 9:20 am

Cowardly, fascists thugs hiding behind masks threatening people. Just the sort of people we need more of in this country, right President 0.0?.

ACKtheo   October 19th, 2011 - 9:20 am

Wouldn't want the truth to get out ! Just like O'usurper's gang of heathens having closed door sessions and locking out the GOP after promises of open door accountability ! These pusillanimous feckless dirtbags have cost our country enough already in Police Over-Time ! Get them all on camera and remember the faces … DO NOT GIVE THESE MAGGOTS A JOB !

THINK FOR YOURSELF   October 19th, 2011 - 9:20 am

Obama said these people "aren't much different than the Tea Party"…I see some BIG differences!

Open and welcoming vs. closed off and threatening.

Love for this country vs. hate for it.

Law and order vs. Anarchy.

Clean and tidey vs. craping on police cars.

Constitutional values vs. Communist values.

Honor and virtue vs. the ends justify the means.

Thoughtful citizens vs. useful idiots!

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:20 am

Bring it on.

LeftistsStink   October 19th, 2011 - 9:21 am

LOL Anyone seen Roseanne lately?

Boxhawker   October 19th, 2011 - 9:21 am

Why even run campaign ads? Just run this video side by side with Obama and Pelosi supporting them.

Libs_R_Wrong   October 19th, 2011 - 9:21 am

If it comes to my neighborhood I'll be part of the solution by helping get rid of the problem invaders.

rfb10   October 19th, 2011 - 9:21 am

watched a show on oakland, full of gang bangers.. hopefully members of the tent city will wander into gang territory.

TheSouthWasRght   October 19th, 2011 - 9:21 am

Winter can't get here fast enough.

ivanhoe9   October 19th, 2011 - 9:23 am

Yeaaaaaaaaah locked and loaded!

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:25 am

Excellent idea.

Chuck47   October 19th, 2011 - 9:25 am

They might as well just take out Oakland at the same time. This is one effed up city.

spaceracer423   October 19th, 2011 - 9:26 am

Dont worry Cowboy-

its not coming to any neighborhood where people still refer to shotguns as "Scatter Guns."

***Side note***
Load up on rock salt now before prices go up in the winter.

IronTigersVet   October 19th, 2011 - 9:26 am

Bwaahaaa… you don't have the balls to come locked and loaded unless it was in your jaws. Just like all liberals… nothing but mouth and no a$$. Bring it b*tch!

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:26 am

………or hopefully, the gang-bangers will descend upon the Tent City, and show them a real revolution…….

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:27 am

But, it is California.

HoR_Emperor   October 19th, 2011 - 9:27 am

Thanks for proving what you really are. You masqueraded as an open-minded "moderate" for a long time on these boards. Now we see the truth of you — a hate-fueled radical.

ILoveMyCountry   October 19th, 2011 - 9:27 am

So much for "peaceful" and "non-violent"…

Rosewould   October 19th, 2011 - 9:27 am

They probably have felony warrants. Hence the shyness.

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:28 am

I prefer #3 buck.

IronTigersVet   October 19th, 2011 - 9:28 am

Yep, these leftists punks are really "peaceful" aren't they. Chickensh*t little retreads.

HoR_Emperor   October 19th, 2011 - 9:28 am

My earlier theory that they were engaged in sexual assaults against their own and trying to cover it up is gaining more evidence…

The electorate will likewise go down as making a poor choice in 2008. Fortunately, the people who voted for the Marxist-in-chief will get a chance to redeem themselves in 2012. As for H, he will be confined to the history books as the worst president ever.

1GooDDaDDy   October 19th, 2011 - 9:35 am

You'd know about that "bandanna" wearing thing CL, but I'd wager it fits firmly around your neck until the next sandstorm blows in from the west.
Through-out history, it was a given' that masked people were considered as "OUTLAWS" while threatening folks with violence, (and later hung).
Ahhhh…good times…good times.

Not Over.

rusty50   October 19th, 2011 - 9:35 am

I know how to fix OWS…. three good men, one fire hose and one cold night, problem solved!

Libs_R_Wrong   October 19th, 2011 - 9:35 am

I've always been an advocate of letting them damn themselves with their own words rather than some faceless narrator. Hoisted by their own petards. The libs have given us such a rich harvest of material too!

Deusexmachina   October 19th, 2011 - 9:36 am

More likely, chewing on each other…

Libs_R_Wrong   October 19th, 2011 - 9:36 am

Not to mention neighborhood pets, by their own admission.

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:36 am

I understand completely.

I'm old fashioned, and not prone to change.

If you like such things, a friend of mine who is right handy just built himself a new rifle.
A 6.5 Creedmoor, with a heavy barrel.
It is impressive.

blakendecker   October 19th, 2011 - 9:37 am

Ya don't say.

Deusexmachina   October 19th, 2011 - 9:38 am

I prefer #4…

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:39 am

I never thought of that.
Duh!
Sometimes, my density impresses me.

Omnivorous   October 19th, 2011 - 9:40 am

I've been urging conservatives to wake up and smell the coffee for years.

When shown that manufacturing is being pushed overseas, it didn't matter, because they still had employment.

When shown of the planned intentional financialization of and de-industialization of the country, it was poo pooed as a 'conspiracy theory'.

Shown how the real estate bubble was manufactured and that their real incomes were declining it didn't matter, because 'my house is worth twice what is was when I bought it".

Told of how we were being manipulated into overseas wars and called an idiot, pinko, arab sympathizer…etc.

Solid examples of Neocon intellectual indoctrination over the last twenty years and called, unpatriotic.

These protests are from legitimate concerns, the old stereotypes from the '60's are irrelevant.

LeftistsStink   October 19th, 2011 - 9:40 am

In your dreams. Come 2012 it will be all over for you.

Deusexmachina   October 19th, 2011 - 9:41 am

Its starting to look more like 'Escape from New York'…

Lets build a wall and contain this….

BobSalem   October 19th, 2011 - 9:42 am

Show up in our neighborhood and we will be your final solution. Pukes like you are the problem!

BobSalem   October 19th, 2011 - 9:43 am

i wonder if they are also hanging with the black panthers.

Omnivorous   October 19th, 2011 - 9:43 am

It will be another four years of Obama, the Republicans don't want this mess they've made.

BobSalem   October 19th, 2011 - 9:44 am

Kind of like Regan vs. Obummer

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:46 am

You are right.
I have worn a bandanna since I was a little kid. I don't feel dressed without it.
I have a Yankee friend from up in Boston who i see on occasion, who just loves to red-neck me.

Oh look! A Cowboy with a cravat…….

Sometimes, ya just gotta shrug it off.

On a serious note, do a little research and due diligence back to George Washington's views pertaining to what he appropriately referred to as Banditti.

Washington decreed that they should be hung on sight.

Cowboy Logic   October 19th, 2011 - 9:48 am

#3, #4, whats the difference? A couple of BB's.
As long as you are next to me, I don't care.
You can hit the ones I miss.

It'll be a turkey shoot.

PULL!

Omnivorous   October 19th, 2011 - 9:48 am

"final solution" ?

lol

You better brush up on your arithmetic skills.

From_Georgia   October 19th, 2011 - 9:48 am

That sounds like pure BS there, and besides, there is something called the Tea Party which is for bringing jobs back, getting government out of the damn way, stop creating bubbles, and put principles first.

You should be urging liberals/progressives, as they still don't get it and by looking that these protests, they never will. Since they show little concern for the economy, personal liberty or the means for an actual solution. And yes, if you know history, these protests are a direct reflection of the 60's and many who are supporting these protests were there during the 60's.

You really have to try harder, cause proving you wrong is too damn easy.

Addie   October 19th, 2011 - 9:52 am

Perhaps the media will stop giving them so much attention! Without the media people would be saying, "Occupy what? Who?" Media is just feeding them fodder, they need to go away.

Omnivorous   October 19th, 2011 - 9:52 am

Pull the wool down over your eyes a little tighter.

eukodol   October 19th, 2011 - 9:53 am

"t's a revolution !
It's coming to your neighborhood. "

Oh, is that was that is? I thought a sewage line broke.

Syrin23   October 19th, 2011 - 9:54 am

When shown that these are directly related to SPECIFIC laws PASSED by the regressives, it doesn't matter. You F*** HEADS have been decimating this country for decades, and now we have the manifestation of the most extreme leftists president coupled with the most extreme leftist Congress (until 2010) in history.

Syrin23   October 19th, 2011 - 9:54 am

LOL very good plan, may I be one of the men maning then hose?

LibertyGeek   October 19th, 2011 - 9:56 am

Not sure they're brown shirts, but did you ever notice how folks like this don't like to show their faces? If your movement is so great shouldn't you be proud of your actions and willing to show the world your identity? Many of these tools refuse to show their face. That tells me they KNOW what they're doing is wrong. Terrorists do the same thing.

Also, I've heard a number of folks refer to the OWS people as "Useful Idiots". I totally disagree. I see nothing useful about them.

eukodol   October 19th, 2011 - 9:57 am

Why is that guy hiding his face? Doesn't he know he's the 99%?

canadianlady2   October 19th, 2011 - 9:57 am

We'll soon see videos of these thugs plotting against City authorities. Have no fear, the media's there.

He's a union thug, either from Chicago or NY.

LibertyGeek   October 19th, 2011 - 9:58 am

That's not it. They don't want their families and employers to know what they're up to. Cowards. If you're not willing to show your face get off the damn street and shut your mouth! I sure as hell show my face when I attend Tea Party rallies.

NotKennedy   October 19th, 2011 - 9:59 am

eukodol   October 19th, 2011 - 10:00 am

What's funny is that every problem you just cited has been caused by the people you support – lefties. You think companies and industries are going to stay here when you get that $20 an hour minimum wage and 100% tax on corporations that you're demanding?

eukodol   October 19th, 2011 - 10:01 am

Yeah, I just think it's funny how these people claim to be in the majority, but they have to hide their faces.

Irishman1911A1   October 19th, 2011 - 10:02 am

Anybody…
remember the scene in the movie Soylent Green, with the riot control garbage trucks equipped with bulldozer scoops?

Problem solved.

From_Georgia   October 19th, 2011 - 10:02 am

Sorry to disappoint you, but I aint no sheep.

Mind you, I use to be a liberal and had the wool over my eyes then. Never doing that again and I realize it is relatively easy to disprove anything the left says. Not to mention, these protests are exposing their true natures as well.

All I have to say to you is that you need to quit lying to yourself and open your mind. Then you will not end up the same way as these bums protesting for crap they cant work for themselves to earn on their own. It sickens me that I am from the same generation as these morons.

BobSalem   October 19th, 2011 - 10:02 am

Ya…OK there forest.
