How horrible to show one of the people forced to jump to their death from the 9-11 attack being pepper sprayed. NOT FUNNY! NOT CLEVER! How sad for the 9-11 families to see
Otherwise, LOVE THEM!!!!!!

Thanks for pointing that out. So many have been added that it became difficult to keep up. I just pulled that one from the gallery.

We must focus on the purpose of the protests and the psychic and physical harm the UCPD has been perpetrating on the protesters instead of making Pike a celebrity. The Pike meme has trivialized the movement. The disrespect of and damage being done to protesters is very real, not a joke.

Bill Clinton, Al Gore & Senator Obama supported the California 2006 Prop. 87, a GMO corn ethanol welfare program.
Bill, Al have changed opinion on the ethanol mandate, I wonder if Obama will make this the time for CHANGE?
I support a waiver of the ethanol mandate, voluntary use of ethanol in my gas.
Federal ethanol policy increases Government motors oil use and Big oil profit.
It is reported that today California is using Brazil sugar cane ethanol at $0.16 per gal increase over using GMO corn fuel ethanol. In this game the cars and trucks get to pay and Big oil profits are the result that may be ready for change.
We do NOT support AB 523 or SB 1396 unless the ethanol mandate is changed to voluntary ethanol in our gas.
Folks that pay more at the pump for less from Cars, trucks, food, water & air need better, it is time.
The car tax of AB 118 Nunez is just a simple Big oil welfare program, AAA questioned the policy and some folks still agree.
AB 523 & SB 1326 are just a short put (waiver) from better results.
