I've never seen them arrest any of the mysterious, black-clad vandals at any of the protests OR identify them. But they arrest journalists, veterans, students etc for simply being there.

I think my #1 suspect is the Oakland PD at this point. And this is why the UN Rappateur on Human Rights asked the US Government to step in to protect the rights of the peaceful OWS protesters from the police.

Regardless of where it came from, OWS definitely cannot depend on the police for protect there is no question about that.
