The Oakland police are in a tough spot on this. The Mayor threw them under the bus when they ejected the demonstrators from the City Hall area, and much of the council supports the demonstrators. They pretty much have to let this all happen and just try to keep it somewhat under control. Oakland politics can make SF look rational!
Lots of people have some sympathy with the protestors cause in general, probably not so much understanding of their tactics.
