Kill Pigs” »

Because nothing quite says “outrage” like a call for the murder of the
police.
In San Francisco, demonstrators marched through the Mission District
after gathering at the 24th Street Mission BART Station. Hundreds marched
down Valencia Street, chanting “Justice for Trayvon Martin.”
The crowd dispersed peacefully, and officers will “maintain a presence
in the Mission District for the time being,” said San Francisco police
Officer Gordon Shyy, a department spokesman. Another protest was scheduled
for 4 p.m. Sunday at Powell and Market streets.
Across the bay in Oakland, however, about 125 protesters gathered at
Frank Ogawa Plaza outside City Hall before marching through downtown,
starting small fires and smashing windows at the Wells Fargo Bank at 12th
Street and Broadway and at several locations, including the Dogwood Bar, the
Oakland Tribune and the Sears store.
A BART police car parked outside the 12th Street BART Station had its
windows smashed, and protesters spray-painted “F- the police” and “Kill
Pigs” on the side of the vehicle.
About 11:30 p.m., Oakland police formed a skirmish line near their
headquarters at 7th Street and Broadway and came face-to-face with
protesters. Argus, the police helicopter, was monitoring the crowd from
above.
The crowd later moved away from the intersection and headed east on 14th
Street, stopping at a McDonald’s restaurant shortly after midnight to burn
several flags and to spray-paint “Kill Zimmerman” and “FTP,” an anti-
police epithet, on the side of Alameda County’s Rene C. Davidson Courthouse
