2 deaths at Occupy protests in California and Vermont [ Death,disease,rape & theft= Occupy]
Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | Nov 11 2011 | AP

Police are investigating a fatal shooting just outside the Occupy Oakland encampment in Northern California and the apparent suicide of a military veteran at an Occupy encampment in Vermont’s largest city.

The Oakland killing is further straining relations between local officials and anti-Wall Street protesters. A preliminary investigation into the gunfire Thursday that left a man dead suggests it resulted from a fight between two groups of men at or near the camp on a plaza in front of Oakland’s City Hall, police Chief Howard Jordan said.

Investigators do not yet know if the men in the fight were associated with Occupy Oakland, but they are looking into reports that some protest participants tried to break up the altercation, Jordan said.

Burlington, Vt., police said preliminary investigations show a 35-year-old military veteran fatally shot himself in the head Thursday at an Occupy Wall Street encampment. The name of the Chittenden County man is being withheld because not all of his family has been notified.

2 deaths at Occupy protests in California and Vermont

It's a start, albeit a small one.

I expect they will be able to pick up the pace as we move into the winter months.

Just heard a 3rd maggot died at an OWS encampment in Salt Lake City. Like you said, a good start. I call it a “societal enema.”

Also another dead within the last few hours in Salt Lake City.

Died overnight from a combination of Carbon Monoxide poisoning (Propane heater) and a DRUG OVERDOSE.

SLC PD has ordered the camp to disburse by sundown Saturday.

Murder at Oakland Obamaville? Murder at Burlington Obamville? Trouble from one end of this country to the other in these Obamavilles? Look out for trouble from the nationwide Obamavilles in the months running up to the election next year!

Yeah, kinda like a Romany encampment somewhere in central Europe about six hundred years ago. Death, disease, rape & theft.

It's a Pre-Renaissance Festival!

The guy probably had PTSD and being around negative people pushed him over the edge.

From what I have read elsewhere the shooting in Oakland was not associated with Occupy nonsense, but occurred nearby. Not at all surprising since it is Oakland. I expect it sooner but the high cop count probably kept the goblins away.

The shooting death in VT was self inflicted. The bubba was only in for two weeks and then was discharged. That does not give him vet status in my book
