		<description><![CDATA[Authorities cleared out what had been a sea of tents and blue tarps located just a few blocks from the White House. A muddy vacant lot was about all that remained in most sections of the square as protesters mingled on the sidewalks with gawkers and news reporters.

Occupiers spent part of the day scouting for emergency shelter to accommodate those evicted from the public park. McPherson Square had served as a gathering spot for protesters from around the country, many of whom already had been chased away from protest camps in their hometowns.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Except for a single taser incident, protesters interviewed Friday by Fog City Journal couldn't recall any clashes with the authorities. One Dallas protester brought some Texas twang to the scene, located in McPherson Square, a park a few blocks from the White House. Volunteers run a small library. On Friday there was a free dinner of donated stew and raspberry cheesecake. A couple of denizens smoked dope in a pipe fashioned from a whole red apple.]]></description>

Police responded with tear gas, flash grenades, bean bag bullets and,  at times,  excessive force.  By days end, more than 300 people were arrested.  Several injuries were reported, involving both police and protesters.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The day was organized by Occupy SF and numerous other groups. It started before sunrise, with sometimes overlapping demonstrations focusing on corporate greed, foreclosures, war and immigration crackdowns. Demonstrators noted their connections, such as profits from building incarceration facilities. There were a few breaks, but for the most part the rain was constant.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Protesters also decried the role that the Supreme Court case Citizens United, now two years old, has played in pulling representative democracy out of the grasp of ordinary citizens. As many as 2,000 protesters took part in all of the activities. Thirteen people were arrested in actions at Wells Fargo and Bank of America.

Threaded throughout the Financial District, Occupy affinity groups engaged in various forms of non-violent activity such as chaining themselves with lock boxes to all the entrances to Wells Fargo's headquarters on California Street, staging a rally at the "bankers heart" sculpture at the foot of the Bank of America building, performing guerrilla theater as military personnel arresting "terrorists" (American citizens), and marching from Justin Herman Plaza throughout the financial district.]]></description>

Corporations are the usurpers who cross borders to exploit labor and the environment, buying off corrupt politicians to reap their profits, while families are being ripped apart by deportations that stop people from exercising their rights to a decent living.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Valdez will be the stalwart of the OccupyCCSF for the next few weeks because, as he explained, finals are upon the students and the occupiers had to pack up and go study. Valdez said that he could afford to skip out on the rest of his classes and was committed to continuing the encampment "until the cops come." He's running a 50 foot extension cord from his tent to an outlet of Smith Hall, and so far, the campus police "have not provided resistance." Valdez expects more students to return in January. So far, all the feedback he's gotten during this occupation has been positive.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The OccupySFSU students proclaimed solidarity with Occupy movements everywhere. In turn, several OccupySF activists participated in the students' demonstration and helped set up the encampment at Malcolm X Plaza, which started its first night after the rally and march. Among the speakers was Sean Semans, who has been an OccupySF resident for weeks. He carries an 18-unit course load at SFSU. He explained that he cannot afford to miss any more school especially given the high cost of his education, so he is helping to set up the encampment at SFSU and will participate in the OccupySFSU General Assembly. Semans warned students there is a hidden cost associated with the fee increases: increases to the interest rate on unsubsidized student loans.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As we were leaving, we spotted some commotion around a sidewalk tree on the edge of the Plaza. We encountered "Robin," a young man in his 20s, who is currently dwelling in a three-level tree platform which has been labeled "Ohlone Land." Robin shouted down to us that "we are not coming down until Jean Quan agrees to let people camp at the Plaza again." He explained that the platforms were built by Running Wolf and Black Foot, who wanted to have a presence in the Occupy Movement on behalf of Indigenous Peoples and their rights; to make a point that the City Hall complex is on stolen lands. Robin also pointed out that eco-justice issues need to have a more prominent place in the Occupy Movement.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To illustrate, pretend your girlfriend stars in a well-reviewed movie as a superhero. You are proud of her for landing this role and playing the part of a strong woman leader.  Then, you read a review about the movie where the critic salaciously refers to your girlfriend as a "fighting fuck toy," after describing certain of her body parts in glowing detail.  Or, pretend your mother has run for office and become Senator.  After she's served for a while, you begin to notice that most news outlets report that Mrs. Anderson (not Senator) "complained," while her male counterparts merely "stated" their opposition.  You will recall that during their campaigns, Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin were often painted as "bitch" or "ditz," and there was much discussion about their wardrobes.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The clarion call of “We are the 99 percent” has driven home a blaring message about what protesters argue is a host of inequalities — of wealth, income, education, housing, economic opportunity, political clout, access to decent food and healthcare, and much more. Some protesters want to see corporate economic and political power reined in and others call for capitalism to be reformed, transformed or replaced. Proposals include enforcing existing regulations on corporate finance, breaking up corporate bank chains, creating a city-run municipal bank or expanding off-the-grid barter economies and alternative currencies.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There were thousands of us! Of course, the mainstream media did not report our numbers. The Sunday Chron buried the story on A11, putting a short local insert into a routine wire service roundup, and did not even attempt to estimate the crowd size. My estimate: at least 10,000 people marching, and it snowballed as we moved past Union Square and up Powell, through the cable car turnaround and back up Market toward the Civic Center.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[George W. Bush and his minions intentionally built a case for war with Iraq without regard to factual evidence. They took advantage of the public's hysteria over the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon to authorize an invasion and occupation of Iraq with no evidence that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction (WMD).

Similarly, Hans Martin Blix, the head of the United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission from March 2000 to June 2003, searched Iraq for WMDs, ultimately finding none. ]]></description>
