For the most part, the Occupy movement has been peaceful, with occasional exceptions, marked by police violence. The worst of it to date occurred in Oakland, California. Lets look at what happened through an article about the veteran police left in critical condition, two videos and a third video on how the Republican Ministry of Propaganda, aka Fox, is informing their viewers about OWS.

A 24-year old Marine Corps corporal and Iraqi war veteran remained in critical condition at Highland Hospital on Wednesday night after friends said he was hit in the head with a police projectile in Tuesday’s Occupy Oakland confrontation. Scott Thomas Olsen, 24, of Onalaska, Wisc., was admitted to Highland after he was hit on the head above his right eye during clashes with police, said hospital spokesman Curt Olsen, who is not related to the veteran. Olsen appears to be the first serious injury nationwide of the Occupy Wall Street movement that has spread to virtually every major American city — and several smaller ones — as millions of people continue to express their rage and disappointment with the country’s banking, regulatory and health care systems. "It’s absolutely unconscionable that our citizens are going overseas to protect other citizens just to come back and have our own police hurt them," said Joshua Shepherd, a six-year Navy veteran and friend of Scott Olsen’s, who attended a vigil late Wednesday afternoon for the injured man. Fellow protesters brought him in after he failed to respond to basic questions. Doctors at the hospital said that Olsen had brain swelling and placed him under immediate supervision. "He survived two tours in Iraq," said Adele Carpenter, a friend of Olsen’s and a member of the Civilian Soldier Alliance. "This struggle has high stakes, I really respect the fact that Scott was standing up for what he believes in. He’s really passionate about social justice causes."… [emphasis added]

Here is video of the incident.

The woman in the above photo is Jean Quan, once a victim of police violence herself, now the mayor of Oakland responsible for this atrocity. In a Special Comment on Countdown, Keith Olbermann calls for her resignation.

In addition, Keith also included a segment, with Sam Seder, on how Faux Noise is covering OWS instead of informing their sheeple about stories like this one. Would you believe it’s a conspiracy plotted by ACORN?

Is it any wonder that so many Republicans are clueless?
