In reply to the discussion: Karen Beck of MoveOn says she will call the police on #Occupy if their actions upset her [View all]Fire Walk With Me
(38,893 posts)makes her statement all the more abhorrent!
-Veteran Scott Olsen, shot in the face by a bean-bag "less-lethal" shotgun at close range, very nearly dies, still has a speech impediment.
-Journalist Scott Campbell, shot with a rubber bullet for just being there. Police lied about the use of rubber bullets.
-Veteran Kayvan Sabeghi had his spleen lacerated by cops for just attempting to go home; was denied medical attention for 18 hours and nearly died.
And you remember the videos of tear gas attacks, police using flash-bangs upon those who attempted to help the fallen Scott Olsen (police also lied about their use of flash-bangs, saying there were protesters using M-80s against cops)...police penning in crowds of protesters, demanding they disperse, then arresting them for not dispersing (yes, there is video..)...
"I'll call the cops..." Well, the cops are the problem. She is nuts, and owes an apology larger than life! Because the cops are lawless and almost killed peaceful protesters without provocation!
