Oakland, CA – Crews cleaned up Oakland’s historic City Hall yesterday from damage inflicted overnight during violent anti-Wall Street protests that resulted in about four hundred arrests, marking one of the largest mass arrests since nationwide protests began last year.
“Are they still doing that?” asked a twenty something. “I thought we all decided ‘Tebowing’ was the new occupying, and putting cats in sweaters was the new Tebowing.” He adjusted the leather jacket his dog was wearing and added, “and this is the new anti-cat thing. Yeah, I guess the Occupy movement was as meaningful as a meme. Okay, take my picture!”
“We’re happy to finally get back out there and beat some ass,” said an Oakland policeman. “I’d rather it be black folk, but you take what you can get.” He pulled out his baton and cooed, “who’s a good stick? That’s right, you’re a good stick. What’s that? You want a little more? Well, this man looks like he’s resisting arrest. Ohhhh, he’s a bad man, isn’t he? What are you going to do?”
A spokesman for the Occupy movement called the arrests “unlawful”, “it’s our right to camp out on city property, destroying it in the process” and “I really shouldn’t phrase it that way. Also, they really shouldn’t have a nineteen year old be speaking for anyone. Oh, also, do you have any weed?”
“I’m glad they protested and got what they wanted,” said a citizen. “Now we can all go back to spending.” He held up his credit card and added, “take that, economy!”
