"Bob Ostertag, a professor of technocultural studies and music, said in an op-ed that this incident and others, including a protest at UC Berkeley at which police allegedly hit students with batons, were evidence of an increased militarization of the state's police forces. "These are not trivial matters," Ostertag wrote. "This is a moment to stand up and be counted. I am proud to teach at a university where students have done so."
This whole article is written with a tone of indignation and contains bias. I don't know enough about the subject to update it, but someone should. Exercisephys (talk) 23:09, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
I'm afraid that is your personal opinion; sans evidence, there is nothing actionable. As a result, I will remove the tag if you can't provide any other details. I know the subject and I am familiar with the large body of citations supporting it, and I'm willing to remove any glaring POV. Viriditas (talk) 23:39, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
This is a news item not an Encyclopedia topic
You might as well make a page on every incident and activity going on in society and in the news.

I wasn't aware you were put in charge of defining what is and what is not an encyclopedia topic. Why would anyone here have to do anything other than write about the topic? Put down the bong, please. Viriditas (talk) 03:58, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
