Democracy Now Interviews Friends of Scott Olsen

Always trust Amy.

her police brutality in 2008 opened my eyes my eyes that MSM is state owned/controlled. I mean the corporations own then thus it's state owned. So the fact NBC on Wednesday night never mentioned the marine being critically injured hardly surprised me. I expected that. Having been thru the events of St Paul. No I wasn't there, but I have friends, close friend who was like a block away from the Minority Report Pre Offense arrests (lives) and also a cousin who lives in Minneapolis/St Paul and works in Owatonna (and was on the other side of the highway bridge when the the bad bridge collapsed at the time and I guess became instant friends even though I've know her since she was born. We weren't that close till that happened. ie I returned the favor by going to her wedding to someone who's hispanic which shouldn't matter but her uncle my dad refused to go. Jesús is one of the nicest and except when he does speak in spanish, you would never know when he's speaking in English. Totally anti stereotype. I was told I was going to be embarassed because no white person was going to show up, was going to go to a bad church thats falling apart. Neither of which is true and even if hardly a white person showed up I really didn't give a shit. My cousin is family and any family member should support cousins choice in whatever they do. Heck even Dick Cheney (ewe) has his Lesbian daughter. Yeah I get off subject about this. but I'm almost always concerned with my cousins. It happened several years earlier with one on moms side. who was almost murdered by a prick. It really turns out they just never should have been together. He's a nice guy now. she's a bit off kilter. Almost got her other cousin in a situation where she might have been date raped. So right now I'd be astranged from her for now. But they are way over in CO and I'm in Iowa. First the good cousin was one of the few good female tattoo artists in the Denver area now I hear shes learning to care for animals. glad to hear that. But everyones got their ups and downs. wish the marine lots of luck in regaining his momentum.

Marine IRAQ War Vet hurt in OccupyOakland protest improving

A former Marine and Iraq war veteran who was injured during the raucous Occupy Oakland protest on Tuesday night has been upgraded this morning to fair condition at Highland Hospital in Oakland, a nursing supervisor said.
Scott Olsen, 24, of Daly City, a member of Iraq Veterans Against the War, was among the hundreds of protesters who filled the streets of downtown Oakland to protest the police dismantling of the encampment at Frank Ogawa Plaza outside City Hall.
Keith Shannon, Olsen's roommate who served in Iraq with him, said doctors told him Wednesday night that Olsen was unconscious and breathing with the help of a respirator.
The antiwar group said Olsen, a systems administrator at a San Francisco software firm, suffered a skull fracture when he was hit by a "blunt object."
Video footage shows a protester, identified by the antiwar group as Olsen, being knocked to the ground at 14th Street and Broadway after police lobbed an object - possibly a tear gas canister - at a group of protesters. The object emits a loud "bang" after landing on the ground.
While he lay dazed wounded on the street, other protesters came to his aid. The footage then appears to show an officer tossing another canister toward the group helping him. There was another blast heard, and one protester can be heard screaming "What the f- " at police while a demonstrator angrily bangs his sign on the street again and again.
The group drags Olsen away. He appeared to be conscious after the incident and pressed his hand to his head while looking at his cell phone.
Olsenhad spent most nights over the last few weeks at the Occupy SF camp, Shannon said.
"He'd leave work, head there, sleep there and go to work the next day," Shannon said. "We were really against the fact that the banks and corporations were not held accountable for what they did."
When Olsen heard that protesters at Occupy Oakland were asking for support, he took BART to Oakland and joined in the protest, Shannon said.
Olsen knew he might have been arrested but didn't seem to have any idea the demonstration would get as violent as it did, Shannon said.
