U.C. Davis Ca. has often been compared to Boulder. Rich white and Bikes. It is a peaceful low crime city. So to see the University police attack nice students with pepper spray breeds out rage. This can is a game changer.
If the cops pulled this crap in black Oakland they would have gotten their asses kicked. It would have been war. Guns would have come out. Black and Hispanic gangsters in Cali don’t have any problem shooting back at police. It happens daily. Will the kinship between students and gangsters evolve into armed warfare with the police? Gandhi not prevailing it is headed that way. Incidents like this upped the violence. It will make students rethink non-violence. It will give radical more violent protesters a reason to start throwing rocks, bringing their own batons or guns.
Interesting , the 2nd amendment allows for armed militias to fight back at an unjust government. It is in the American constitution. Though the left militias usually don’t carry guns, sooner or later some one of them is going to trip over the 2nd amendment and start shooting back.
What those idiot cops did and what their idiot spokesperson said was a declaration of war on peaceful students on all American campuses. It is happening again. If the police, the university and the local government represent the interests of corrupt bankers, by not allowing civil protests, camp ins etc, we may see a stepped up response by student protesters.
This situation has made it dangerous for every decent police officer in America. Firing the UC Davis police department should help. American kids have access to guns unlike their counterparts in North Africa. This situation could turn very ugly. Protesters could start shooting back at police next time. It is not the 1960’s as some have been lulled into thinking. America is more violent.
Who are the police anyway? The black panthers figured that out. When the police started beating up and shooting people in the inner city, the Panthers brought guns. The Panthers evolved into The Bloods and Crips who still shoot back. There is an understanding between cops and gangsters. Violence. When will that develop in the Occupy movement? I’d say, right about now. What happened in Davis, in fact what is happening to occupy protesters all over this country is bullshit. Let them protest. Let them camp in parks. Who the fuck care? They are not hurting anybody. But the cops really fucked up this time and they should be put on notice…..go looking for a gun fight, you’re gonna find one.
This is where the right and left… tea party and occupy will jell. Tea Party members know all about guns. If those two groups come together, look for armed revolution.
Iran and Islamic Middle East more trouble than we care to admit Conventional wisdom now says the Obamaadministrations should have supported the Iranian middle class protesters back in 2009. Remember? They started the revolution in the middle East. When students were being murdered in the streets, President Obama said he wanted to negotiate and would not back the students. That has changed now in the middle east and we are supporting all revolutions. But Iran has to be dealt with. They cannot be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. Mostly because they have a crazy Ayatollah who would use nuke against us. They have said as much.
Steve Jobs passing brought an unusual strong reaction from some techies here in Boulder. We found fighting and sniping about Jobs going on inside of Boulder Start-up tech community. This community is notoriously humorless, thoughtless, judgmental and rude. They will be the subject of some TV shows by me on cyber bullying. They are the worst. Just last week i was threatened again by one of these jack asses. keep it up.
Hacking and Christopher Cheney Boulder is also a subject of FBI and local law enforcement investigations when it comes to hacking. Christopher Cheney is the latest geek arrested for hacking into celeb email and bank accounts. I have been hacked here and have an on going FBI investigation into the Boulder techies who did it. Beyond me the Boulder kid t
ech community supports this criminal activity as does the city of Boulder in its backing of Start-Up Boulder. Other companies involved in sponsored hacking include Trada and Tech Stars who have held advertised hacking events. FBI and Boulder DA tell me they are all under investigation for sponsoring illegal hacking events. They FBI arrested hundreds of people nationwide last spring including some Boulderites for financial hacking. Boulder DA’s office tell me that they have sophisticated equipment and an FBI agent in the DA’s office to target Boulder hackers. The Denver FBI office has the most sophisticated anti hacking office in the country. Good. I am sick of these people.
Banning cars on the CU Boulder campus? It’s about time. I have been advocating banning cars from Boulder all together since 1995. We are all dead from air pollution any way, but it couldn’t hurt to get the cars they hell out of town. Ride a bike. Take an electric cab. Dive an electric golf cart. walk . Take an electric bus. Stay the hell home. ( joke)
