Comment on Eugene’s Exclusion Zone by vanessa

Ashland is drafting an exclusion zone soon and I found your page while doing some research on the topic. As someone who is also heavily involved in Occupy here, I am against the idea and implementation of such a thing. Our city council pushed this though and there is no way to stop it but I am hoping we can soften it at least. Thank you for your words and ideas!

Reading this reminded me of that great song by Elton John, “Elderberry Wine”!!

Occupy Eugene does represent a smaller group than the big cities in the news but remember that when our negotiating team comes to the table, it is the same size as the negotiating team that other cities send. Let’s face it. Some cops take the motto “To protect and serve” a little more seriously than others.

Although I have been amazed and awed by how easily (in comparison) our Occupation in Eugene has been compared to others… I do have to point out that our cops are dealing with numbers of protestors in the 50 – 200 vicinity rather than 1500 – 2000. It’s much easier to have dialogue between smaller groups.

I believe Eugene police recognize their job security depends upon a strong union and a strong collective bargaining agreement with their employer. While I believe the city may have been too soft in negotiating past contracts with the police union, nevertheless I respect the union’s efforts on behalf of members.
Perhaps greater autonomy engendered by a strong contract* empowers individual officers to act from a place of fearless* strength, to aid the public good, occasional loose cannons notwithstanding.

I welcome all herbal students to enjoy the Herbalist Manifesto. My time is currently divided between the Occupy movement, my job and my family so postings have been a little sparse lately. Go ahead and reprint my blog posts. I take my hat off to you as a teacher. Keep up the good work!
