In Oakland, police threw tear gas at civilians that were occupying streets. In Oakland, people started to throw rocks and firecrackers at the police. I personally think that the occupy X Street movement is kind of stupid. A majority of people don't really know why they are doing it, and it kind of annoys me that people are leaving their families and jobs for a movement that they might not be sure about. This movement has spread all over the country, and it is starting to stand out more in the news. This movement does have a cause, but people are taking advantage of occupying. The riots in Oakland are saddening when this started out as a peaceful protest, but cities are starting riots.
