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.

you have got to be kidding me

[bergmeid]

Poor guy was a victim. /s

[thefactor]

if its anything like my department, they literally cannot call in sick.

this is why charlie rangle and marion barry will never lose and election. these people do not care how big of a POS a guy is.

as long as he sticks it to the man, he'll have their support.

[SoldierDad]

Don’t forget that CA’s current Attorney General (Jerry Brown) is the former mayor of Oakland (and former Govenor of CA). He’s just as liberal as Dellums, and twice as stupid.

[Drew68]

Every single Oakland cop should call in sick for a week. Let the animals fend for themselves and see how that works for them.

Just barricade the interstate off-ramps that lead to the 'hood so white people don't mistakenly get lost and let these residents fend for themselves. It's their failed culture that breeds Lovelle Mixons. I've grown so sick and tired of this inner-city thug crap.

[SeminoleSoldier]

These are the predators, not the victims. Alot of innocents would be hurt before these scum got shot by a would-be victim, turned on each other, or overdosed.

[lightman]

A shame it didn't rain on their parade...

...with pepper mace fog.

[Global2010]

That area was invaded 50yrs ago by a Marxist agenda.

Those people are enslaved by it.

[machogirl]

can we deport them for terrorist activities?

since America isn’t good enough for them, why don’t they do their “black struggling” in kenya? Zimbabwe? Liberia?, etc.

[lightman]

Parole violator, rapist,

Most recently accused of the rape of a TWELVE year old and possibly linked to five others.

[Dustbunny]

I have tried to comment four times. Each comment would be considered racist by the black people protesting the death of the cop killer.

So I will just say that Lovelle Mixon had his life end as he lived it, with violence.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Just one of the Boyz!

Right now I am so glad I never settled and got stuck in any big city that words can't describe it. Trouble is coming, big time, and it will be in the cities.!

[Wolfhound777]

“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!!”

In a perfect world....

[dragnet2]

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

Before everyone calls for everyone on Oakland to be killed, it was a good citizen in the area that called the P.D. informing them the suspect ran into the building. That is what generated the response.

[Islander7]

About 60 people that's about the collective IQ as well.

[VR-21]

"I've grown so sick and tired of this inner-city thug crap."

I hear that. Our useless government officials have failed us miserably, and these two legged vermin roam our cities with impunity. I'm so fed up, and I'm becoming filled with a hatred I never felt capable of.

[mckenzie7]

Was the 12 year old victim of Lovelle Mixon given a rally?

Was she a child of color?

Does she matter?

This also makes me sick!

[MGMSwordsman]

There are very few real men left in the USA anymore. There are many reasons for this that have already been discussed ad nauseum. But, suffice it to say, this abomination would not have occurred before the 1960’s because real men would have seen this for the affront to decent society that it is, and would have taken matters in their own hands to “address” the situation. These scumbag demonstrators would have known this and, as such, this demonstration would not have occurred, or they would have simply burned down their own neighborhoods.

Once the civil war actually starts, it will be interesting to see if some of those real men throw off the chains that have been holding them down and absolutely destroy these types of human garbage which have been a plague upon our nation since at least 1960.

I took a wrong turn in the “Bay Area” once, in 1993.

My co-pilot informed me that we were in the wrong part of town and the sun was well down.

Thank the Lord that gasoline was covered by corporate per diem at that point...as I stood on the skinny pedal until we arrived back in San Jose.....

[SoldierDad]

Agreed. There are many people who live in Oakland who do not engage in criminal activity - people of color and cacasians. Our vitrial should be reserved for those who are either involved in criminal behavior or actively defend those who are.
