More pics of Friday's Powell Protest at DeAnza College

by tbg
Here are some more pics of the Friday Nov.11th protest that took place in front of the Flint Center and all around it. Protests rotated around the building and towards the end, took place predominantly in the special parking area/access to the building and later the enterance to the De Anza College campus on Stevens Creek.

§Knock down the Mesh barrier!

Protesters facing the enterance had aligned and pushed the mesh barricade towards the police even closer to the Flint Center's enterance. At this point, there was no "physical" barrier separation..other than the police formation. I don't remember if the cops reacted at once, I think they just watched it happen..and then guarded the glass enterance into the building and formed a line pushing/ordering reporters, photographers and protesters away.
