Announcement at Oakland courthouse by speaker that Mehserle received bail, set at $3,000,000 which means someone just needs to put up their house for him to cover the $300,000 that actually needs to be paid and he'll likely be out as soon as the paperwork is processed.

FUCK YOUR COURT SYSTEM. FUCK YOUR GOVERNMENT. WE DON'T NEED THIS SHIT ANYMORE. NO JUSTICE NO PEACE NO RACIST POLICE. FIRST IT WAS "WE SHALL OVER COME" AND THAT DIDN'T WORK.

"If you don't riot, then you can't complain"
is like saying: if you don't follow MY tactics, then you might as well shut up. other activists will use tactics that will work for them. and we won't shut up. your comment is childish and devalues a lot of folks that have dedicated their lives to fight the same system of oppression. just because they don't use your tactics, shouldn't mean you should slam them.
