Eviction for Oakland Occupy

    According to the Associated Press, Oakland police have issued another eviction notice to the protesters to remove all tents and other belongings from their campsite by a non specified date.  This comes after a man was shot and killed by another man last week.  The men were reportedly arguing yet there has been no connection made with the man who died and the protesters but it did happen in the area.  This notice is the same one given to the protesters shortly before the October 25th raid and riot where police used tear gas on protesters and arrested several.  They were allowed back to the gathering site the following day and the camp has grown considerably since then.  Protesters are stating that the city is using the Occupy Movement as a scapegoat for any violence or any wrong doing in the area as a way to justify blocking their right to protest.  This is most likely the set up for yet another police vs protester scenario coming in the days ahead.
