The Climate Here at UC Berkeley

[phyncke]

This photo says it all from today's Daily Californian, the student newspaper. A student faces off against the riot cops last week...they called it vandalism and I imagine that the roaming protest was joined by some local thugs as it got out of control but look at this kid...holy sh*t. This in a photo shows you what is happening here. This is the state of education in California. They are taking it to the streets.

That is the street I walk on every day to get to work. That is my neighborhood. We are preparing for the March 4th protests here. I hope it is peaceful.
