I think it's safe to assume that Campbell was verifying with the police if it was okay to film them and if he was at a proper distance from the police line. He asks this question multiple times before continuing to film. Hearing nothing back, Campbell films the rest of the police line at a respectable distance until... he gets shot by an asshole police officer. What the hell? You can see the rubber bullet (bean bag? another projectile?) being fired and hitting Campbell in the video.<br/> <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #occupyoakland #ows #police #to:tumblr</p> Tue, 08 Nov 2011 00:37:25 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:19545 occupyoakland ows police to:tumblr http://vimeo.com/31568216 This how to properly engage with police when they do suspicious things. We were riding by on bikes and noticed hes hiding his name and has no badge number. SO we decided to ask him. He did not answer, we asked a ranking officer is that policy? The LT. quickly went about fixing his attitude. This is a common practice among cops at occupy's around the US .That way he/she cannot be named or referenced if he participates in police miss-conduct . Its in most police departments policies that all officers in uniform must show some form of identification. OPD does not wear badges with #'s, how do we hold anyone accountable?<br/> <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #occupy #occupyoakland #occupywallstreet #ows #police #to:tumblr #video</p> Sat, 05 Nov 2011 04:40:35 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:19448 occupy occupyoakland occupywallstreet ows police to:tumblr video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=autoshare&v=OZLyUK0t0vQ <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #occupy #occupyoakland #occupywallstreet #ows #politics</p> Fri, 28 Oct 2011 02:38:04 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:19241 occupy occupyoakland occupywallstreet ows politics http://www.businessinsider.com/this-veteran-could-be-the-first-person-to-die-at-a-wall-street-protest-2011-10 <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #occupy #occupyoakland #occupywallstreet #ows</p> Fri, 28 Oct 2011 02:31:40 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:19240 occupy occupyoakland occupywallstreet ows http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/oct/26/scott-olsen-occupy-oakland-review?newsfeed=true <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #occupy #occupyoakland #occupywallstreet #ows #politics #protest</p> Fri, 28 Oct 2011 02:31:21 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:19239 occupy occupyoakland occupywallstreet ows politics protest
