Johanna Faust, a mixed race Jew, prefers to publish pseudonymously. She is committed: first, to preventing war, ecological disaster, and nuclear apocalypse; last to not only fighting for personal privacy & the freedom of information, but, by representing herself as a soldier in that fight, to exhorting others to do the same. She is a poet, always. All these efforts find representation here: "ah, Mephistophelis" is so named after the last line of Christopher Marlowe's Dr. Faustus, whose heretical success flouted the censor for a time.

The Protests Will Continue Until The Cops Improve




The harassment, harsh tactics, batch arrests, over-high bail amounts, specious charges, and injuries in the past month have gotten so bad that #OccupyOakland has decided to protest weekly until "the bullshit stops." This is the first one, as far as I am aware, and already the helicopters are buzzing overhead, and the Storm-Troopers-in-Black are deploying.




The helicopters were buzzing loudly in the sky again -- actually, this time only one.  Last time the helicopters didn't even start until there was Riot Cop Deployment.  They must be running out of money.  That would surely be one of the objectives.

Here is the stream -- click through for the archive.  Also see the twitter feed for #Occupy Oakland (hashtag #oo) to your right.

The protests will continue until police improve.
