Chaos Continues From Sea to Shining Sea as Occupy‘s ’May Day’ Protest Erupts

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP/The Blaze) — Hundreds of activists across the U.S. joined the worldwide May Day protests on Tuesday, with Occupy Wall Street members in several cities leading demonstrations against major financial institutions.

In Oakland, Calif., stinging gas sent protesters fleeing a downtown intersection where they were demonstrating. It was unclear whether police fired the gas, but officers took four people into custody.

Crowds had blocked intersections in the city and tried to force businesses to shut down for not observing calls for a “general strike.” The city has been the scene of some of the fiercest clashes between police and Occupy protesters in recent months.

In New York, police in riot gear lined the front of a Bank of America, facing several dozen Occupy activists marching behind barricades. “Bank of America. Bad for America!” they chanted. About 50 demonstrators in Chicago rallied outside another of the bank’s branches.

More arrests followed as protesters, fresh from a day of “music” and anti-American, anti-Wall Street vitriol screeched from microphones at Union Square began their ponderous march on Wall Street. Unfortunately for them, New York’s finest were out in force, and as of 5:30 several protesters were already in hand:

About 30 protesters have been arrested on Tuesday around Manhattan in a day of May Day demonstrations organized by Occupy Wall Street, the police said.

All the arrests were on disorderly conduct charges, mostly of people who were blocking traffic or resisting arrest, said Paul J. Browne, the head police spokesman. Protesters were arrested near Bryant Park in Midtown, on the Williamsburg Bridge, at a park on the Lower East Side and near Washington Square Park as marchers kept on the move and repeatedly converged and split off.

Across the world, protests drew tens of thousands of demonstrators into the streets from the Philippines to Spain. They demanded everything from wage increases to an end to austerity measures.

Tuesday’s U.S. protests were the most visible organizing effort by anti-Wall Street groups since Occupy encampments were dismantled last fall. May Day protests have in recent years focused on immigrant rights.

From New York to San Francisco, organizers of the various demonstrations, strikes and acts of civil disobedience said they were not too concerned about muddling their messages. They noted that the movements have similar goals: jobs, fair wages and equality.

Organizers of Chicago’s rally said they welcomed participation from the Occupy groups. “I definitely see it as an enrichment of it,” Orlando Sepulveda said. “It’s great.”

In Los Angeles, at least a half a dozen rallies were planned. A rally was also planned in Minneapolis.

In Atlanta, about 100 people rallied outside the state Capitol, where a law targeting illegal immigration was passed last year. They called for an end to local-federal partnerships to enforce immigration law.

The May Day protest was significantly smaller than last year’s, which drew about 1,000 people. Organizers said turnout last year was greater, in part, because the rally was on a Sunday, rather than during the work week.

In the San Francisco Bay area, service on the Golden Gate Ferry was shut down as ferry workers went on strike. They have been in contract negotiations for a year in a dispute over health care coverage.

A coalition of bridge and bus workers said they would honor a picket line of at least 50 workers outside the ferry terminal. They were joined by some Occupy protesters.

Organizers backed away from earlier calls to block the Golden Gate Bridge, but scores of police — some carrying helmets and batons — lined the span during the morning rush hour. Some protesters with signs stood nearby, but did not disrupt traffic.

Across the Bay in Oakland, a group of workers, patrons and property owners clashed with a few dozen protesters who stormed a downtown diner in an attempt to shut down the restaurant.

The two sides scuffled briefly before police moved in, and the restaurant stayed open. Demonstrators were upset that the diner had not closed its doors.

In New York, where the first Occupy camp was set up and where large protests attracted some of the earliest attention — and mass arrests — to the movement, protesters gathered at Bryant Park in Manhattan.

They prepared to march to financial institutions, including Chase and Citibank. The crowd grew to several hundred with a drum-and-brass live band as a soundtrack.

John Connors, who said he was a financial analyst, took the day off, as well as his shirt, revealing a chest with the words, “Black Hole of Finance,” painted on it.

Threatening letters containing a white powder that appeared to be corn starch were sent to some institutions.

Three letters were received Tuesday, two at News Corp. headquarters and addressed to the Wall Street Journal and Fox News, and one to Citigroup. The message in the letters said: “Happy May Day.”

Seven letters were received Monday at various banks. One was sent to New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

Occupy activists had said they planned to bring business to a standstill, but the crowds protesting in the rain were modest.

The Occupy movement in New York has relied on demonstrations and marches around the city since Nov. 15, when police ousted hundreds of protesters from their base in Zuccotti Park, where they had camped since Sept. 17.

Paul Browne, the police department’s chief spokesman, said recently that the department was “experienced at accommodating lawful protests and responding appropriately to anyone who engages in unlawful activity.

“And we’re prepared to do both,” he added.

This is a breaking news story. Updates will be added.

      @INDIVIDUALISM:

      “they have the right to protest” – Where on earth have you been living the past thirty years?! You have a right to protest, just as much as you have the right to own property – all at the whim of the tyrannical government.

      You can’t just decide to have a parade, and then block traffic for two days without getting charged for any number of violations. You can’t carry guns anywhere you want to…and any other number of things you can’t do (try building on your “own” property without a permit, for instance).

      I don’t know where you have lived that gave you the idea that “they have a right to protest” – but it clearly hasn’t been in the US for the past four or five decades. We haven’t experienced freedom in decades!

      Sheriff Joe Arpiao has the answer. ARREST ANY TROUBLEMAKERS – - – not peaceful people just walking or carrying signs but those who are trying to break through police lines and damage property, set fires and other forms of mayhem. Dress them in PINK jumpsuits abd house them in TENTS until their trial date is set, not in some comfortable, air conditioned jail with widescreen HD TVs and other luxuries.

      In America, everyone has the RIGHT to peacefully demonstrate, whether they be OWS or TEA PARTY members. I support their CONSTITUTIONAL right to peacefully do so.They do not have the right to damage property, invade businesses or shut down traffic arteries, subway lines, train stations or airports. Those who participate in the illegal activities should be arrested and treated like what they are: COMMON CRIMINALS!

Ron Paul is the only one serious about fixing the systemic root causes of the sickness that is ruining this country. He has been fought, mocked, misquoted and finally blacked out by the corporate media which is owned by the banks and corporations that oppose him. OWS and TEA party have been infiltrated to put people back in their respective left/right paradigm boxes to argue over nonsensical issues while the established elite continue on with their rape and looting of this country. The Democrats and Republicans are both socialist parties if they support the Keynesian monetary policies that will lead to financial destruction and huge government.

      We cannot get to task 2 if task 1 is not achieved.

      If Obama is ousted, we have the hope of achieving the rest of the plan to restore our Republic.

      If Obama is re-elected we cannot recover – we cannot eat enough pieces of this elephant to save us. We will not have time

    Obama gets out of the country so he doesn’t get associated with the movement he and his comrades organized.

      Gonzo, you got that right, and I wonder who did not see it coming. He’s trying to kill two birds with one stone though. Keeping his distance from OWS questions from the press, and still spiking that football for his “KILLING” Osama. Even the SEALS are fed up with it.

    Since the Tea Party formed, ‘occupy’ followed. Ask yourselves why? Satan always copies a legitimate, peaceful movement with a counterfeit. Folks, that is what we are seeing now.

      So, please tell me… if you are so disenchanted with this country’s founding principles, the free market and Constitutional Conservatism, why don’t you pack your bags and hit the road for Cuba, Venezuela, or the Peoples Republic of China. That way, you can live somewhere where the government takes care of you (in more ways than you can probably imagine) and you can stop mucking it up for the rest of us who believe in ending the fed, ending unions, ending crony capitalism, ending political correctness, state rights over federal rights, and individual responsibility. I’ll help you pack :-)

      Pox
      Do you have the Titantic sound track on when you do the comrade thingy, for ambiance? Are there certain mood lights and candles that effect a greater solidarity meme? Are you actually employed, and if so which union and why? Luckily my job precludes any involvement in any shape or form from a union…my predecessors evidently bashed soft heads back in the coal mine problem days. Ah, the good old union busting days. May see a return of that if you guys keep up with the commie/socialist/EBT card/free lunch stuff. I say go for it and wear some Johnny Cash black and boots to match. Please. Reach down, check to make sure they aren’t up in your stomach still, and really step up to the plate. I haven’t seen a thing to make a real Polish solidarity man in any way pleased with the half assed efforts from you guys. Sad that the real socialist call you guys soft core. JV. Small tators. No nuts. You get the point. Have a great day.
