There's been intense protests sparked by the non-indictments in Michael Brown and Eric Garner's cases EVERY DAY in the Bay (between SF, Oakland and Berkeley).

Between different reports, the protests are costing the city more than $100,000 daily, and that's not including any damage that's done (broken windows, protester medical bills, etc). Many hundreds have been arrested (at least 450, but probably more). Cops have shot tear gas, rubber bullets, flashbang grenades, and are bringing in cops from agencies around the region for support (Oakland cops now working 13 hour days every day, with no days off). Cops are arresting young people of color and charging them with heinous shit only to have charges not filed at arraignment (ex: 4 felonies including assault on an officer and assault w/ deadly weapon, etc). Last night, an undercover cop who was wearing a mask during the protest was outed, and pulled a gun on protesters. At least a dozen, maybe a couple dozen businesses have been mildly looted. Freeways have been stopped about a dozen times. The subway system (BART) has had multiple station closures every day. The community college cancelled classes last night... it goes on and on and...

This article basically says we're winning: http://www.contracostatimes.com/my-town/ci_27103750/protests-bring-hardship-cops-police-departments.

Meanwhile cops have been involved in the deaths of two people in Oakland in the past week.

Crazy times we live in.
