After "Stop Rolling Blackmail!" Protest...
Young Activist with sign outside of Duke Energy power plant near Jack London Square in Oakland, CA.
His sign refers to President Bush's recent visit to California.
"Our President
He Came
He Saw
He Did
Nothing"

Protesters are calling for:
“*The FERC Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to impose wholesale energy price controls!
*The Energy Pirates (like Duke Energy) must pay an Excess profits tax!
*If all else fails, seize the power plants via eminent domain!”
*Many protesters feel that the time to seize the power plants and create Public Power (like Sacramento and Los Angeles) is now
