1. my country tis of thee.....

2. Where was that pic taken? Cairo???

:grr:

3. He was kicking the Barricades the Police set up

He was provoking the Police. A Reminder: Don't provoke the Police, they have first dibs on your ass. You may be right, but expect a lot of pain in the meantime.

[girl gone mad]

5. Yes. Anyone kicking a fence totally deserves a brutal beatdown.

Police must do everything possible to protect those fences. A show of force involving 800 cops was completely justifiable.

:eyes:

[msongs]

7. just ignore the bully supporters. its how they relate to the world as a whole nt

[formercia]

10. It doesn't matter.

The Police make the rules on the street.


Being right is still going to get you a whuppin'


These are Giuliani's thugs that are doing this. His legacy in action.

Welcome to the American Gulag.


I'm on your side, just a bit more pragmatic.

[Lyric]

8. That's fucking bullshit.

There is no excuse for thuggish behavior unless someone is actually putting other people in danger. Kicking a barricade out of frustration when the cops have imprisoned you in a park and won't let you leave is NOT provocation by any sane standard.

[formercia]

11. I agree

You're still going to get a whuppin' if you provoke the Police.

[slay]

12. That is no excuse for police brutality. At all. None.

we can never accept this as being "ok".

[piratefish08]

15. that's just fucked up.

[sabrina 1]

16. Here's a reminder, this is unacceptable, no matter what he was

doing. The police work for us, why do people in this country act like the Police are untouchable? What did the police do to cause him to kick a fence? What is the excuse for the near killing of Scott Olsen, Kayvan Sabheqi, the women who were attacked, the others who landed in the hospital, the journalists who were arrested, 9 of them and roughed up, the City Councilman who was wounded and denied the right to call his attorney?

Why are you defending this? What defense is there for the brutality we have been seeing across this country against American Citizens by these cowardly robo-cops?

Give that advice to the police, 'do not provoke the people who pay your salary'.

I don't understand at all this fear of the police. They are public servants, and we the people are not at all happy with what we are seeing and I hope all of this will lead to some real reform of these Departments, because it clearly needs it.

[Occulus]

21. "Why are you defending this?"

Look. At. Their. Username.

[sabrina 1]

26. Lol, it took me a while, but yes, that probably answers my question.

[formercia]

30. The answers are always so simple for some.

:rofl:

Wanna' see the secret handshake?

[sabrina 1]

32. No need, a person's words are more revealing than anything else.

[HereSince1628]

4. Riot police or police riot? n/t

[sabrina 1]

17. New chant 'take off your riot gear, I don't see no riot here'!

The riots start always when the police show up. I think they are trying to instigate violence, as a tactic.

[starroute]

6. He had apparently been one of the New York to DC marchers

I assume he was one of the protesters who'd left the march to go back to New York after the eviction from Zuccotti Park.

9. Before and After pics:

So apparently this kid knocked off a police officer’s hat which nearly started a riot in Zuccotti. I’m not sure why they’re taking off his pants, though.

[slay]

13. So the cops had him surrounded, on the ground, no bloody face

but not after they get done with him - AND taking off his pants. These cops are THUGS and should be sued criminally and civilly.

[Fire Walk With Me]

18. Kick (in the eye)

[slay]

19. Cops, kicking a guy, on the ground, who is surrounded by police

the very definition of police brutality. ugh. :grr:

20. Bloodied citizens by the Empire deserve a recommend.

[lumberjack_jeff]

22. Does every noun now require a #hashtag? n/r

[Huey P. Long]

24. If you want to look on twitter for more info, yes. If you want to pick nits though, go ahead.

[lumberjack_jeff]

23. Is he okay? I believe they call him "Roumanian"

and I saw a tweet that he has died of his wounds. Trying to get someone to confirm.

[Fire Walk With Me]

25. That is why I stay away from twitter, because the unconfirmed can spread as quickly as the truth.

It's very easy to jam, and agents provocateurs probably know this.

On the other side, he'd BETTER be okay :(

[Raksha]

27. I have a Twitter account but don't know how to use it.

I saw the Twitter feed next to the livestream of the march and someone had tweeted, "Roumanian has died of his wounds." Not trying to spread unfounded rumors--just trying to confirm this one. You're right--he'd BETTER be okay! All hell is going to break loose in NY if he isn't.

[FirstLight]

29. all i heard was someone talking to the ustream guy

and she was saying he definitely had a fractured skull...she had been onsite as it occured

[Fire Walk With Me]

31. Hope it's just Internet Exaggeration Syndrome, but it's said that he has a skull fracture

and has lost some teeth. UNCONFIRMED

[Rex]

33. That look on his face...the final realization that America is NOT

what his elders told him it was. The DAWNING of a new age is at hand.
