Oakland -- About 60 people marched and rallied in Oakland tonight to condemn the police and honor Lovelle Mixon, who was killed by Oakland police after he fatally shot four officers Saturday.
"OPD you can't hide - we charge you with genocide," chanted the demonstrators as they marched along MacArthur Blvd., near the intersection with 74th Avenue where Mixon, 26, a fugitive parolee, gunned down two motorcycle officers who had pulled him over in a traffic stop. He then killed two more officers who had tried to capture him where he was hiding in sister's apartment nearby.
The protest was organized by the Oakland branch of the radical Uhuru Movement, whose flyers for the march declared, "Stop Police Terror." Many marchers wore t-shirts featuring Mixon's photo, including a woman identified by march organizers as Mixon's mother. The woman declined to comment and gave her name only as Athena.

Your tax dollars at work. This an ACORN (4 billion) rent a mob.
Looks like “change” is starting to kick in.
I wish I could say I'm surprised and shocked but I'm not.
I can see why people think Northern California is a hell hole. Let’s see, they rally for a cop killer who killed 4 officers just doing their job, and oh yeah, brutally raped a 12 year old girl, and this guy gets a rally..beautiful..glad to see our society slowly going down the toilet
Every single Oakland cop should call in sick for a week. Let the animals fend for themselves and see how that works for them.
That’s one sick society out there in the hood.
Yes, he didn’t have very much time to repent.
Uhuru, in reality, means “Dump Ass” in Ebonics.
So these people are members of the Dumb Ass Movement. In plain English, they are full of crap.
School is wasted on a lot of people, such as these who are Oakland’s finest.
Gee, they elected a hardcore communist as a mayor, Ron Dellums, so why should anyone be surprised at the crap that rises out of the sewers?
God - add Oakland to your list after Sodom and Gomorrah. Please!
Blue Flu.
Works for me.
Looks like a good place to start a little urban clean-up...Gawd, this story makes me physically sick to my stomach...Time for some military type flame throwers to burn away the chaff!!
My God. There are no words to describe what I think of this.
At least, none that will not bring down the wrath of Admin Moderator.
A pathetic mob, cheering a murderer and rapist.
Have people no shame anymore?
I was thinking about a month. The people in that demonstration do not deserve other people putting their lives on the line for them ONE SINGLE MINUTE. Leave them to their own devices and see how much they enjoy being at the mercy of their own ilk.
Oakland is NOT Northern California. There’s a whole lot of counties in CA who do not deserve to be lumped in with these morons (58 total counties - most in Northern CA typically vote conservative). No, this is an example of what you find in large metropolitan areas in Northern (or Southern) CA.
i can’t imagine how the families of the four, dead officers feel when hearing about this disgrace
why doesn’t al or jesse or barry come out in public and condemn these people?
I wouldn’t be sad if there was a rash of OPD resignations. Let the animals take care of themselves. Sort of a escape from LA solution
OJ Juror material! If the cops left Oakland the residents would be eating each other.
