Oakland officials on Sunday were inspecting damage inside City Hall that was caused by about 50 Occupy protesters who broke in and smashed glass display cases, spray-painted graffiti, and burned the U.S. and California flags.
The break-in on Saturday was the culmination of a day of clashes between protesters and police. At least 300 people were arrested on charges ranging from vandalism and failure to disperse.
At least three officers and one protester were injured.
Mayor Jean Quan said Occupy protesters have caused an estimated $2 million in damages from vandalism since October. She said the cost to the city related to the Occupy Oakland protests is pegged at about $5 million.
Hey dcdirectactionnews, who's going to pay for this? Still proud of them?

Oakland is a shit hole, the police have enough problems just with the gang violence there.

Five million in damages. Nice. Well done. Way to make friends and influence people.
Think the fleabaggers have had the effect they were seeking?

Oakland has been on a downhill slide for decades thought they would try and save it with pot but that just made things worse.

if they hired some latin maids, construction clean up crews, and.. why even continue; it would cost 10,000 at the most if it was handled by private businesses who do this everyday and not the most expensive bullshit city crews who stand around not working while doing city work... not that i approve of Occupy.. they're garbage.

The way I heard is that these fuckers had nothing to do with the actual movement. But you can believe whatever you want since you right wingnuts are so used to that angle.

The Oakland pigs are lucky Shitty Hall is still standing after what they did to Scott Olsen, and later police violence there. In addition, they will be paying millions of dollars in damages to the people they illegaly mass arrested, just as DC had to twice for mass arrests stemming from IMF protests. Maybe Oakland taxpayers or the courts could find a way to collect the money to pay out the mass arrest settlements from the assets of the police officals who ordered the illegal arrests? Probably p More..

@dcdirectactionnews And those protester lawyers will enjoy the hell out of those homes, cars, boats and bank accounts...that the protesters won't ever see a f**king shred of, and the taxpayer will still be footing the bill.
So in the end, a few lawyers get richer, the masses still feel disenfranchised, and Oakland won't be able to hire a cop to save it's ass.
Good plan.

@Shady-Cadence Fewer pigs, and more protest lawyers dragging their sorry asses into court? Fine by me! They can have ALL the money if they can deter the police so far as I am concerned. A lot of them work their fucking asses off pro-bono while the other side pays millions to their lawyers. Believe me, it's now OUR lawyers that can afford private jets and $500 a night escorts.
