Italian Ship Picket (day 2) - Cops Eat Food Not Bombs! (photo)

In what may be the first time police officers have eaten Food Not Bombs’ free food - two Oakland cops ate corn while they discussed the issues surrounding the picket with activists. On Friday and Saturday Food Not Bombs provided free food and drink - like the corn on the cob that was barbeque roasted on the spot - for hungry activists (and cops).

The Port of Oakland action was undertaken by local activists to protest the violent and inhumane treatment of protesters during the recent anti-G8 protests in Genoa Italy.
