I have the facts that



Zero unions have joined the strike.

No Schools closed.

The City is open.

A thousand or so folks, (some not even from Oakland according to Skippy) showed up.

Not even .03% of Oakland has joined the call for the general strike.

and you are a bitch who whines about TOS.






so now you are lying about what you are lying about. I see.

Favororite Rag of the right wing. If Obama gave a speech in San Fran, their headline would read 'Black Man Sought By Bay Area Law Enforcement In Regard To National Security Issue".
 
They're showing Ogawa plaza right now on CNN and with a huge number out marching there's enough people there (maybe 1k?) for a small rock concert. Guess that ole Mercury ain't so accurate.




So stern, you don't think there is a planned march (meet at 5) to the port to shut it down?

1000 people is aprox .03% of the population of Oakland. And according to you they are not even all actually from Oakland.


There are lots of reports of the planned march this evening.

Not just the mercury.

and I missed your acknowledgement that you were totally incorrect in saying the Port was closed earlier.

pssssssssst, math error. Unless Oakland has about 3.5 Million folks, you're off by at least an order of magnitude. Once, I'll let someone skate. Twice is deliberate.

Where the fuck are you getting this blubber on from. I have never said that a school would close or an entire union would strike.

You have said that and put those words in others mouths.

Better than .3% are in the strike now. The walk to the port is 5p.

You are proven in a fucking lie as always.

lucky... there is no "force". That is the part about your post that is the lie. In fact, the Union has doubts itself. If the OWS creates a picket line, the union workers may not cross it.

Organizers say they want to halt "the flow of capital" at the port, a major point of entry for Chinese exports to the U.S. It's too early to tell how much port operations will be disrupted or how many port workers will walk off the job. Union members could recognize the Occupy demonstration as a picket line and refuse to cross it on Wednesday night, said Stan Woods, a spokesman for the longshoremen's union in Oakland.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/45134339/ns/us_news-life/#.TrGA6PSXuso

As far as the actual wording from OWS...


On Oct. 29, the assembly also announced a plan to march on the Port of Oakland with this resolution:

"On Wednesday, Nov. 2, as part of the Oakland General Strike, we will march on the Port of Oakland and shut it down. We will converge at 5 p.m. at 14th and Broadway and march to the port to shut it down before the 7 p.m. night shift.

"We are doing this in order to blockade the flow of capital on the day of the General Strike, as well as to show our commitment to solidarity with Longshore workers in their struggle against EGT in Longview, Wash. EGT is an international grain exporter, which is attempting to rupture longshore jurisdiction. The driving force behind EGT is Bunge LTD, a leading agribusiness and food company, which reported 2.4 billion dollars in profit in 2010; this company has strong ties to Wall Street. This is but one example of Wall Street’s corporate attack on workers.

"The Oakland General Strike will demonstrate the wide reaching implications of the Occupy Wall Street movement. The entire world is fed up with the huge disparity of wealth caused by the present system. Now is the time that the people are doing something about it.The Oakland General Strike is a warning shot to the 1 percent – their wealth only exists because the 99 percent creates it for them."


http://oaklandlocal.com/article/occupy-oakland-movement-votes-nov-2-general-strike-will-march-port-oakland

No mention of force anywhere.

Thats what OWSers do (see skippy going from the Longshoremen shut down the port to a guy gave a speech across town).


THe Mob is going to try to use force to shut down the port this evening.

The Union wont join thier strike (absolulty zero have), so they are left using violence and economic terrorism.


since they dont have the people with them.

There are, no doubt, several out of towners there but I have a feeling it is a lot less than 90% of the OWS people that are there. As for people coming over from Frisco, I dont make out a huge difference between those from Oakland and Frisco. I see them as the same metro area. Similar to Miami/Ft lauderdale where I used to live. (One caveat, I don't say that around a hardcore baseball or football fan unless I have all weekend to listen to their rants).

according to the orginizers the action will be a "warning shot".


You can pretend that is not a reference to force if you like.


and like I said this is make or break for the OWSers.


this will show the "wide reaching implications" of the movement.....


Or lack thereof. we see the people have not joined in. not even 1% of em.

Then we have around 1000 people out of 7.1 million.

and .03% far overstates thier support.

where do you get 7.1 Mil?

http://www.google.com/publicdata/explore?ds=kf7tgg1uo9ude_&met_y=population&idim=county:06075&dl=en&hl=en&q=san+francisco+population
809 K or so per US Census bureau. If you were to add the populations of the 2 together for your statistics, wouldn't it stand to reason you would also add the OWS groups together prior to calculation of your percentage?

Being as how Frisco is 'Liberal Central' (can you think of a large city offhand that has more of a liberal reputation? I can't) I'd hazard a guess that there are quite a lot of folks in their OWS protest.

All reports are coming in in the thousands (thats plural) and Oakland has a population of around 390,724 so you got all your numbers wrong, and since you earlier have said 375,000 and are now saying 7.1 million, you are lying again.

and nobody bites the ankles of invertabrates, they haven't any.

Your numbers are off but who fucking cares what you think anyway?
It's already all tied up in Union stuff (which your republi-paper isn't reporting )... But you want an answer to your bogus little question. Don't you princess?
The answer is No.
