OAKLAND -- A crowd of as many as 100 protesters marched through downtown Friday, breaking car windows and a window at Barack Obama's local campaign office.

Officer Johnna Watson, a spokeswoman for the Oakland police, confirmed in an email that a window of Obama's campaign office at 16th Street and Telegraph Avenue was smashed.

Police also confirmed that several car windows were broken. The protesters began organizing about 9 p.m. and marched up Broadway.

Police also said they were following the protesters during the march.

Just a dry run for the November 7th "the election was stolen" riots.

The author must have slept through Journalism 101 since he failed to state who is prosting and what is being protested.

[Seaplaner]

One somehow suspects a carefully organized ruse to make Obama look like a "victim".

No evidence, just guessing, any facts to the contrary quite welcome.

Oh okay. I’m sorry, I thought you were reporting what you had seen. You should probably word it a bit differently. People going by will probably think you actually saw an ABC report. Not trying to be hostile towards you, but that was misleading at least to me.

Have a good one, SmithL.

“...Police say a suspect shot BB-gun pellets"

What's a BB-gun pellet? Is that like a AK-47-ICBM?

...and a window at Barack Obama's local campaign office.

Tea Party...has to be.

This is big news. It’s the 0bama regime finally doing something about the economy, yay! They are now trying out their next stimulus package. See, this is how it works: Break windows, purchase orders for new glass, work for glaziers, they get paid, they spend it, and with enough glass breakage, our economy will be BOOMING again. What a genius this... “man” is.

Once they start destroying property, they aren’t “protesters” anymore.

Hey this is Oakland a suburb of San Fransicko.

It’s expected behavior.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

That’s the one.

Just another Saturday night in Oakland.

Yes we are - and usually right too...

Like the 5 or 6 shooting deaths that happen in Chicago every Friday night?

[ozzymandus]

They got windows in Oakland? Who knew?

Caused by non other than the same OWS movement that Nancy Pelosi spoke so highly about

The shops vandalized by this group should sue Nancy for promoting it .
