This will be accomplished by a collaboration of pickets and direct action which will shut down all modes of transportation from Marin to San Francisco.

Ok I read this disturbing article about how Occupy Oakland is not going to pledge non-violence at all. The other splinter group there, I thInk it is called 99 percenters has sworn a pledge of non-violence. Is anyone concerned about this? Has anyone reached out to Occupy Oakland to ask them to not be a bad example? I am concerned by their previous behavior they could mar a great event by giving the media a negative view of the movement. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2012/04/21/BA281O6QF2.DTL
