At the port of Oakland, CA, April 7, 2003, Oakland cops fired on a peaceful anti-war demonstration with tear gas, rubber bullets and wooden dowels, injuring quite a few people, several seriously. I was there. Brown was Mayor of Oakland at the time. He endorsed the action of the Oakland police! The cops even fired on a group of longshoremen from Local 10 of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU), breaking the hand of one longshoreman, who was a crane operator. Ironically a couple of weeks earlier, Brown was a guest speaker at my local, ILWU Local 6. What a hypocritical fraud! ________________________________________________ YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message.
