Flier calls for violence against Occupy Oakland protesters
Oakland Tribune ^ | 10/16/2012 | Matthew Artz

OAKLAND -- A flier disseminated downtown is urging people to bring bats to next Thursday's Occupy Oakland anniversary protest, not to smash bank windows, but to "beat the (expletive)" out of anarchists and vandals.

The flier asks residents to "stand up and defend the great city of Oakland" and specifically calls for violence against "black-clad" Caucasians that "use our city landscape as a canvas for their divisive and violent message."

No one has taken responsibility for one-page post, which leaves no contact information. It claims to be from a group calling itself DOOM -- Defend Our Oakland Movement.

One comment reads, "Sounds like the Tea Party thugs threatening violence against Occupy." Given the character and history of both groups, I'd rather bet on Occupy thugs "threatening" the violence. Diversity of tactics and all that, you know.

Occupy posted these filers. It stirs up emotions and more people show up to support the Occupy movement.

...searching for white people in black dress?

Sounds more like a black racial violence against whites.

“Sounds more like a black racial violence against whites.”

The discord of the left doesn’t bode well for Obama; none of them have any enthusiasm for him and his BS anymore. There are more blacks AND anarchists out of work today than four years ago, and if Obama wins re-election there will probably be a lot more in 2016...

Gee, if Obama were to show up at the protest, he’d have to fight against himself. (Think about it....)

I’m suspicious about the timing of this. It looks like it’s preparing for a cover for violence on Election Day.

Occupy posted these filers

I would concur. It smells like one of these phony staged “hate crimes”.

The “Occupy” movements are as unhappy with Obama as “normal” Americans are; they are an indication of his vulnerability, not strength. I suspect if Romney wins even a lot of black people are going to be thanking God that grown-ups are back in charge.

The fliers actually spell Caucasians as “Caucasions.” I think it’s safe to say they weren’t put out by one of the better educated groups in the city.
