OK, this one is two weeks late, but it was not posted until the 19th by the writer, a seventy-year-old UC Berkeley professor and former Poet Laureate of the United States. It describes how he and wife ventured out on campus to take a look for themselves at the Occupy protest there and were both clubbed by the police. It’s not just young radicals and dissenting students anymore. It’s old folks who happen to get in the way, not to mention female faculty members thrown down and dragged by their hair by the Hessians hired by Chancellor Birgeneau, see the above link, which has internal links to videos.
On the other hand, we certainly are having some nice weather between the rains.
