The cops here in Oakland are being super aggressive, it looks like they are taking political prisoners. They seem to be selecting certain Occupiers to arrest.
This is happening now.
You have to read this devastating first person account:

Please pardon my language but, "this is bullshit".
The mayor thinks that no one is watching. She figures that it's the holidays and that since she is no longer tear gassing campers, that she can arrest U.S. citizens who are peacefully and legally demonstrating.
I'm going to call the mayor tomorrow, Tuesday, 1-2-12, and give her a piece of my mind. I'm going to let her know that we, the citizens of Oakland, and the world, are still watching. I'm going to let her know that her treatment of Occupy Oakland people is not acceptable.
Will you join me and call her also?
Getting calls from around the country will freak her out and more importantly, it will help Occupiers get better treatment during arrests and while being jailed.
If you call, be sure to let them know where you're calling from.
Mayor of Oakland California
