4. In other news ...

The fox is currently investigating a break in at a local chicken coop. Film at eleven.

5. That's so special.

What's needed is a special prosecutor to investigate deeply ingrained racism and right-wing fanaticism in the Oakland Police Department.

Not another band-aid 'internal' investigation.

8. Whew! (wiping brow). Thats a relief.

We can rest assured that Justice Will Be Served.

9. I'm on pins and needles!

Will the police exonerate themselves? The tension is nearly unbearable!

11. They will probably not be able to ID the cop who shot Scott Olsen.

Cops won't implicate each other - they just close ranks and cover up.

The investigation will conclude that Scott hurt himself, or deserved to be hurt.

12. Foxes investigate chicken disappearances.

Acquit selves, say chickens are "runaways" and no search is necessary.

[coalition_unwilling]

14. Say chickens "deserved" to be eaten - n/t

15. There's a perfect storm brewing in Oakland.

The mayor is mid-recall, the interim police chief is an idiot, law enforcement all around the bay are too anxious to grab a piece of the protest action.

[Avalux]

16. Well, first they have to admit they actually used rubber bullets on protesters.

Right now, they're denying it.

[rms013]

19. Deny all they want

My daughter has some of the rubber bullets she picked up during the police riot. She also has a spent tear gas cannister and parts of a flash bang grenade, all provided by the Oakland/bay area jack boots.

17. Oooh, someone's gonna lose some vacation pay!

Way to hold them accountable...
