Editorial Comment

Occupy Oakland has plenty to celebrate on this Valentine’s Day: especially its contribution to the recent settlement between the International Longshore Workers Union (ILWU Local 21) and Export Grain Terminal (EGT). Among other things, #OO buses remained on standby and ready to go to Longview until the agreement was signed, sealed, and delivered. Love of community is powerful stuff. Happy Valentine’s Day #OO!

While people are encouraged to bring candy and flowers to share with fellow marchers, and with bystanders, it is important to note that these things are not to be given to the police.

In light of recent events, it would be insensitive to dismiss the suffering of the people of Oakland at the hands of OPD in such a way.

In the event of a potentially repressive police presence, everyone is encouraged to hug and/or kiss someone nearby.

While this is still a peaceful and family-friendly event, the police have shown us time and time again that they are not our friends and are not to be treated as such.

This is to be a completely nonviolent, family-friendly action, and will be open to all who are interested in joining us in an expression of love for our community and each other.
