It's UC Berkeley Police Chief Mitch "Mad Dog" Celaya in brief conversation regarding... murder, murder most foul. Or attempted murder most foul. Or assault. Something... it's about something. Mitch says it happens "often"; people in Berkeley get accused of attempted murder "often". That's just how it goes; you can even look it up in the newspapers I guess. Who knows....

On youtube, there is an account maintained by a user named "Trueonfire". Trueonfire is a UC Berkeley Police officer, and had posted two video clips on his account. The videos were taken while he was on duty, watching a student rally on campus (11-18-10). Video while taken while acting as a police officer, not as a private citizen on his off-hours, was put on a public youtube account. The descriptions of the two videos show a sharp bias against the protest; they are police propaganda piece...

The following is a transcription of a conversation with a UC Berkeley student protester and two members of the UC Berkeley Police Depart...

The tree sitters have renamed the park "muwekma" for the Ohlone word for "people" -- the Ohlone being the original peoples indigenous to this area. They are calling for supp...

This week - the week of October 25 - was supposed to be the beginning of the trial of the RNC 8 in St. Paul, Minnesota. Originally facing terrorism charges under the Minnesota PATRIOT Act, the eight anti-RNC organizers then faced four charges each before pressure on county attorney Susan Gaertner sent the terror enhancements packing. In the end, Gaertner dropped charges against three of the eight completely, and in doing so found it easier to secure a final plea agreement on a lesser charge...
