Amerikan Police State! Sadistic wasted sperm ZioNazis learn their vile trade from their true boses the international banksters & war profiteers, SHAME SHAME SHAME! They beat me in Cali(f'in')fornia in 2000 I will never forget or forgive. The Federal ZioNazi courts back up their fascist pig monkey f'ers right up to the Supreme Stooge Court. Let the Occupy movement be a warning to shameful less than human war mongering greedy spawn of the Synagouge of Satan. There will be a Nuremburg like trial.
FINALLY, someone is able to explain these ridiculous protests ...THE BEST EXPLANATION for anyone doubting the reasons and thinking the protesters are stupid. WATCH AND LEARN YOU RIGHT WING IDIOTS: youtube.com/watch?v=_kIaoMAZldU
@SummersEquinox So you think that someone has to be seriously injured or dead before it becomes a problem? I don't care if it was just a paper cut. The issue is not about how badly they were attacked but WHY they were attacked. Those people were merely practicing their american rights of free speech. They posed NO THREAT to the police. The job of the police is to protect the rights of americans not to show off their muscle. The department needs to take responsibility.
@ClockworkMan14 No doubt, they do need to own their actions. However, I think a lot of people are overreacting because of how insulated they are from REAL police brutality. The U.S. is an amazing place for the fact that we can hold these protests alone. These were a couple of overzealous officers trying to prevent a rowdy protest from becoming a riot. They made some poor judgments; this was not part of a systemic problem with police brutality.
Its so, so easy to sit back in your studio and watch a one sided view... get some guts, get out of your chair and go down and see what the Police are dealing with. You keep mentioning that poor women who the "white shirt" reached across and grabed.. well, lets see what you do when someone take a punch at you.. Oh thats right you run home to MOMMY and tell her how upset you are... what a loser!!!!
@Micslt - It's equally easy to call out someone who is appropriately pointing out obvious injustice. The woman was just standing there. I've worked with correctional personnel in a juvenille lockup and seen grown men throw 12 yo's to the ground and bend their wrist back to get them to "be quiet" as they screamed in pain. Kids offense, he called the officals mother a bad name!?! I had to order the fool out of the room. You go watch it 1st hand and see it is often "as seen on tv".
Who needs an investigation?! That was an obvious drive by pepper spraying. And that cop that reached over the barrier to grab that woman... that crowd shoulda grabbed his thug ass, pulled him the other way and stomped him into the pavement.
To understand the happenings of today we must study the past. This study begins with Rothschild. After taking control England's central bank they are quoted with saying it matters not who makes the laws as long as I control the money supply. You'll encounter Smedley Butler, Andrew Jackson, Lincoln and Russian czar Alexander, Bolshevik revolution, Garfield, Wilson, and you'll encounter Warburg, Rockefeller, eugenics, Nazi's,. Bush, De Beers, Morgan, + other well known names
@kennysboat6 What did he lie about? Point out the examples, please. Oh that's right you don't have any examples of what he has lied about. You just say it to hear yourself speak because you have nothing better to do. You're a lying sack of shit and probably love Fox News for supporting the greedy and corrupt rich who are robbing this country of wealth to keep it for themselves. How do you feel about being a worthless and pathetic shill for the super rich? Does it feel good to take it in the ass?
@LibertyInProgressNOW Thats not there base, thats a reporters office. You libs have no controll look at what you write. Your as bad as lewrence, you must be the same type of person as him. Be smart look into his back ground? before you try to be him,
@kennysboat6 By the way, RT headquarters is based in Washington, so he wouldn't have to leave MY great America to work in OUR nation's capital. Get educated on geography and facts next time you run off at the mouth.
That girl being pepper sprayed in particular is fucking embarrassing. If the video had started there, I'd have thought the cops killed her newborn baby.
As much as I want to side with the protesters, holy fuck do these people overreact to the mildest of action. You'd think people have been shot or stabbned or bombed the way they're screaming.
Thank you, Black America has been terrorized , traumatized, and is never surprised . Every so called White man I talk to said Rodney, deserve it, Fast forward , How you feel now , Hypocrites. Anywhere there is Injustice , It is a Treat to Justice Every where .
I AM AMAZED THAT THIS STORY IS EVEN BEING AIRED,AND THIS MAN IS ALLOWED TO EXPRESS HIS OUTRAGE,AND TELL IT LIKE IT IS.THAT AMERICANS HAVE SHORT ATTENTION SPANS,AND WE ARE SO SILLY,WE WILL JUST FORGET ABOUT IT.AND GO TO THE MALL OF AMERICA,OR WATCH FOOTBALL,AND NOT SEE THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH OUR SYSTEM, IT IS A RANKING THUG THAT IS COMMITTING THIS ACT AS WELL,UNPROVOKED.WHAT IS THE MESSAGE,HERE,ITS TO YOU.IF YOU PROTEST GETTING SCREWED,WE WILL SCREW YOU EVEN WITH YOUR PUBLIC SERVENTS.
PRESSTITUES of the Mainstream Media is now reporting the Occupy Wall Street? hhmmm, they are probably now aware that thousands of guillotine has been ordered to be delivered to big cities worldwide...
Larence O Donnel makes it clear that nothing will be done unless someone gets killed. He is sending the message that more violence needs to be done in order to get the media's attention.
Larence ODonnel is trying to pump the crowd to commit violence.
the police and the mass media are just doing their work; hide the robbery of the citizens done by the insane thieves in the government and their moneybackers.
msnbc are as bad as fox, luckily some people still dare to say what they mean.
If you want to do the ULTIMATE PROTEST all you have to do is NOT PARTICIPATE...NO TELL_LIE_VISION, NO RADIO, NO SHOPPING, NO DRIVING, NO SPENDING ANY NOTES, NO WORKING, NO USING ANY CREATION THAT IS NOT ALL NATURAL..it is not impossible only incomprehensible...if you can't use your IMAGINATION. DISCONNECT COMPLETELY.>14k Crow Elite
the20scopes could not be more right! We all know people who are "hot heads" and want to fight but please people talk to them and explain that you cannot win a fight against the police or military! We need to fight against the corrupt who the police work for, the big banks, wall street, pelosi, schwartzeneger, dave christie, etc...
What happens when the Oligarchy has squeezed every last cent out of the common people? Then the government jobs get cut. Where will the police be when they don't have their jobs, their weapons, and their immunity for actions like this? Do they really think that the people will forget? Good luck to all the government employees that lose their jobs after harassing and terrorizing the American People in the name of "doing their job"
Oh and O'Donnell's last words "the American People they are sworn to protect"... what about the fact that THE PEOPLE they beat FOOT THE BILL OF THEIR PAYCHECKS!!!!!! We pay to be assaulted and brutalized by this Totalitarian Rule( = a political system where the state recognizes no limits to its authority and strives to regulate every aspect of public and private life wherever feasible)
Black America? White America? How about AMERICA? Why Divide? $ not COLOR decides JUSTICE. I'm whiter than O'Donnell - college grad and human services worker - & this happened to me in '89. Beaten to a pulp by 2 of NEW BEDFORD'S Finest & MACED @ Point blank range. I'd never been in ANY TROUBLE before. 6 months later the same cops killed a man. Only 1 cop was convicted & lost his job. Recently I checked in on Leonard Baillargeon, who was rehired by the Police Department & PROMOTED to Detective!
the top voted comment is very true which is why its top voted. this is a classic tactic the mainstream media uses to pit the 99% against the 99%. we need to focus on the real enemy. the elite behind the curtains.
wow,we are in trouble,and sick if idiots can justify,what has taken place here.when citizens can not peacefully protest the action of their elected servents.
Maybe,next time they should just plant some trouble makers in the crowd to say it is not peaceful and lawful protest were against but unlawful and un-orderly.by the way like what was done at the republican convention.
UNITE!! When is enough enough America? America (Our HOME) has been hijacked folks. The Police are not doing their Jobs and clearly not on the Peoples side, they are payed off and working for the criminal elite on Wall Street who many are Jewish. Yes there is a massive conspiracy going on&most of America are brainwashed into thinking all Conspiracies aren't real. Well some are real&yes many Jews are behind some Conspiracies. Now you know why Jews have been expelled from 109 locations since 250AD.
it is about time whites wake up,because my people always knew that they were the training ground for breading police that would cross the line,and the fact that many of these abuses were aired,they took poles to see if people thought this force was justified by police when used on minority's(suggesting drugs and gang related,even when not related. Now that they have found whites did not care and sided with the police,as using appropiate force,they have now turn this force on you.

They go too far! Every time we, the citizen, express our dissatisfaction with anything that is not convenient to them or the government. The government is ours, it is our right to protest against it and change it.
@61 Turner: You're absolutely right. Police brutality is a wordwide disease.What's happening as we speak on Wall Street is an opportunity to rally for an end to police savagery. I've already appealed to the Mayor, NY police commissioner, MSNBC, etc. for justice, but I need support. I'm trying to spread my Petition to the Mayor!
Hello my fellow Americans. Yesterday I have become an American Citizen and I am so proud of it! When I look around myself I feel like I belong here now. When I was studying for naturalization test, about constitution how "We the People" have right to petition the government, have right to question authorities I was shaking my head. All this is only on paper. Where is this great America I remember as a child!?, land of the free. Peaceful people are being treated like criminals, Support Ron Paul!
NOTICE HOW THE NEWS MEDIA IS USING VIDS TAKEN BY PROTESTERS? THEY ONLY GOT IN THE MIX BECAUSE WE CALLED THEM FOR POOR COVERAGE. I,M ONE WHO CALLED THEM. IF MORE PEOPLE CALL MSNBC (212)664-4444,AND CNN (404)827-1500 TO COMPLAIN THOSE PIGS MY BE SANCTIONED. UNLESS YOU,RE NOT REALLY INTERESTED?
Thanks Lawrence , for covering the police brutality, but are you forgetting to talk about why the protesters are there? Bankers swindling the world . thats sappose to be the real story,
"I haven't mentioned where this took place" Means it's a blue state. And of course he has the typical uneducated view of Rodney King, who got hit with batons because the left took away the ability to grab him. It's just lucky King hasn't killed anyone, just beaten them. O'Donnell hasn't had an original thought since he's been on tv. No wonder MSNBC is running Obama commercials with on-air "talent".
this is real news, no corporate BS!! Its coming to every town and it is unstoppable, the people who truly built this country built is on their white lies and our blood. People that are called for this mission have a scary one ahead, but we are the people, and we have a right to be heard peacefully!!! We are made of all nations and histories, imagine our power as one people!!!
It's time for change! Let's demand that justice be sought agaist these officers who abuse the very ones who pay for their bloated salaries & pensions.Please sign my petition on Change.org:"Stop police abuse by NYPD officers"
He's wrong ... this story is not going away ... not this time. Occupying Wall Street and Oct 6 is going to be big. Many Americans are finally waking up.
The Elites, who are only interested in preserving and even furthering, the status quo, have decided to abandon any attempt to cater to the welfare of you and me - that would cost them money.They have built up an immense and militarized police gang in this country and have turned them loose on us when we show our displeasure. You are the enemy of this gang if you don't remain in your easy chair drinking beer.
I honestly cannot say I'm surprised. Wall Street already owns the nation at the state and national level, why should it be any difference at the local level, especially on their home turf.
I love the idea of people standing up to the rich, but even this is clearly not the way to do it. Corporate influence is so prevalent in America today that peaceful protest will accomplish exactly nothing, as will letter-writing or all the other standby tactics of the politically malcontent.
Even if this movement had some kind of stable leadership, it still likely wouldn't get anything done, and as it is all it's going to accomplish is making Wall Street smell like ass and patchouli, and even that will fade, along with this group's minor accomplishments, once they all finally leave.
Wall Street clearly owns our government, our politicians, our media, and half of our countrymen. But they do not yet own us. And that is our last recourse.
Why is this just now news worthy? Since when did the media EVER condemn our over glorified police so strongly? This is an obvious ploy by NWO controlled media to stop the people from coming for them. We have all seen this in other countries. The sleeping giant is awake and missing a few meals. ARREST THE BANKSTERS ON WALL STREET!
one day i thought that the american people knows the values of freedom and appreciate it well , and the egyptian people have no idea about this
then suddenly when i went to tahrir square with no hope of having freedom in egypt because of the egyptians people , i got surprised that millions of egyptians flowed us for the call of the freedom .
Everyone is watching. Remember, as a 99% your short on resources to move around. So, a lot of people want to be there but can't because their chasing the bubble in their own lives. Which feeds the elite driven machine. When it breaks, we'll all be down their throwing you guys in the air in rejoice. Love your hearts, spirits and ability. DON'T STOP. WALL STREET IS THE CRUX. BLOCK TRAFFIC. STOP MOVEMENT. STOP THE MACHINE.
Making the connection between Wall street and the Police is critical. Culpability should not be confused and limited to just the white shirt police officers. The connection the public needs to be aware of is where their orders come from to subdue a movement like this at the steps of the worlds largest financial market. When that connection is made Americans will be forced to question their government and the financial oligarchy that manipulates the police. To change the world you must be strong
What a ridiculous report - the protesters refused to disburse and the police had to clear the area - @MSNBC is irresponsible and clearly not reporting the whole story - since when has protesting without a permit, blocking the streets, refusing to disburse been ok? This isn't a country of MOB RULE MSNBC
@TRINITYNTB I agree with most of your points, but I would argue that the "permit to assemble" was granted hundreds of years ago with the 1st Amendment. "protest permits" just seems silly. Now if they are indeed blocking the streets and disrupting the general flow of business, that's one thing. Shame on them for that. But they have a constitutional right to peaceful protest in principle.
I truly wish I was present for these protests. 1000 miles away, I can only use second-hand reports.
@DanTheManMS I understand that a permit to assemble rule may seem silly but it is needed just for this reason - people need to gather in an organized fashion for their safety, for the safety of those around them and so there can be a safe flow of people that don't disrupt emergency services etc. to the area - we aren't a country of mob rule no matter what young people think they have a right to do - it simply isn't real life -
I understand what you are saying but damn, how can a police officer pepper spray some people and then just walk away. Might as well arrest them at that point, but no...they pick and choose who they want to throw to the ground.
@Moosicles16 I can see what you mean, but from what saw it was a supervisor spraying them and the other officers there to keep them contained and/or arrest them - I would have preferred they get arrested personally but I don't know all the techniques of police when it comes to people that refuse to disburse or move along -
NY is where a good deal of the corruption and fraud occurs. Medicare fraud, financial fraud, Wall Street fraud, unemployment fraud. You name it, NY perpetuates it and regulators there encourage it because it means more dollars for their state. Most of the citizens of NY are living off the fraud of Wall Street. They are not going to be sympathetic to these protestors. The police aren't just enforcing the wishes of Wall St, but the rotten wishes of the average NY'er.
Content aside (glad to see the coverage and commentary, etc), I don't watch MSNBC and don't know who this guy is. Does he always talk this slowly for dramatic effect? It got a bit annoying after the first minute.
@jotunobsidianeyes I'm talking about his exaggerated slow talking, used for dramatic effect. Like I just said. He sounds like a "Joseph A Banks" commercial. "The REASON... THAT MAN... IS BEING ASSAULTED BY THE POLICE... IS BECAUSE... " - that sort of thing. It sounds like I'm being given the news by Captain Kirk. Don't get me wrong, the content is valuable. I just find his presentation annoying, that's all.
Who authorized this police brutality? Did the police commissioner even know? In any event, it warrants a non-partisan investigation. Are you listening Mayor Bloomberg!!!
@gitahall6933 Bloomberg is in on it. his live-in gf Diana Taylor was the former superintendent of the New York State banking department. She now serves on the corporate board at Citigroup.
Finally some unbiased journalism for a change. Kudos for exposing these cowards who do not serve let alone protect the people, instead they brutalize them and render making a joke of the constitution as citizens' constitutional (as well as human) rights are constantly violated in plain daylight and even with full video evidence! The result? No consequences or accountability! Welcome to the 2011 edition of the land of the free!

To say nothing of the real thugs in this, the Wall Street criminals cowering, snickering, in their gold-clad cubicles behind the barricade of “public” servants.
This country of DEMOCRACY? Who wants to take his way of ruling for the world? That invaded Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and many others to take their democracy? In the U.S. people can gather to watch them games, applauding the government, watching the ball descend in Times Square, but the Americans can not meet with their legitimate right to disagree with the policy of his government, a system and capitalist onslaught on the peoples of the world. The Empire has no clothes.
i would like to urge all viewers of this video to arm themselves, I know it sounds extreme, but you do not want to wait until the last moment, it will be too late to DEFEND yourselves from those who are sworn to protect you
@the20scopes The only ones trying to goad the public into violent reaction were the few police officers who are kicking heads and pepper spraying innocent people. Even somebody with rudimentary security training knows that the easiest way to provoke a riot is to start attacking innocent people during a tense situation.
Now they are showing that reputation is unjustified. These particular officers, the troublemakers, are cowards at best, and at worst, are deliberately trying to provoke riots.
Even somebody who has had comparatively rudimentary security training such as myself knows that if you do something like THAT, you are liable to provoke a violent reaction. It is a massive show of restraint on behalf of the protesters in not answering with violence.
Wow. Thank you, Mr. O'Donnell. I disagree with only one thing you said-the NYPD is not a great police force-they are as you see in the video. And they have been since I can remember.
I bet the white collared cops have a different jurisdiction and are there with other authority. You've got to understand jurisdictions and why and how they apply. Some people go into depth about this topic: Robert-Arthur:Menard, Irene-Maus:Gravenhorst. If you understand that, you can win these coppers.
This is New York...as a New Yorker---Guilianni gave them the right to do whatever they want. They are a terrifying gang. I seriously am scared and dislike New York cops. This is the life of Blacks and Hispanics all over New York during the reighn of Guillianni and it has NEVER ended.
Again, I repeat this - lets stand united. We need the cops, the fire services, the emergency personnel, the armed forces all on our side. We should not get distracted, we need to stay the course.
And of course, the NY Times isn't covering this. They grey haired baby boomers that run that paper want to convince the younger generations to keep printing money to pay their social security when poverty for 65 plus is the lowest it's ever been in history.
Eff the times. Eff the greedy baby boomers that manufactured the demise of our infrastructure and social safety net. You spent your youth sitting in the haight stoned and called it protest. This is protest. You just wanted to get laid.
To the commenters below, O'Donnell didn't portray all cops as bad! He said MOST of them were doing their job - which he examples in a clip included in his video here. He message is to highlight the fact that the sociopath officers get away with their abuse because they can. I think viewing this accurately is important; not coming to the conclusion he's trying to sway you. That's what I got out of it anyway.
@bonfiredancer Yes, the cops are resorting to violence against a peaceful crowd. But notice some interesting things about this video - we have a cop coming towards a group of innocent women from some distance away, walks directly up to them and in the full sight of all the cameras sprays them directly in the face. That is something very fishy about this whole incident. Also, notice that most of the violence is by the white shirts.
THE UNDESERVED HALO OF SAINTHOOD THAT FELL ON THE NYPD AFTER 9/11 IS GONE. This is what the NYPD has always been about.
The NYPD is pepper spraying the people protesting the people who are engineering the loss of billions of dollars in police pension funds. They are IDIOTS!
NO TAXPAYER bailout of the police pension funds EVER.
To the commentators lamenting that this is a misdirect from the protest-
it still doesn't change the fact that what happened to these people during a peaceful protest is an outcry. Citizens do not deserve to be attacked, maced, what have you, like they were no matter the situation.
Write letters, call in, e-mail the mass media, whichever is best for you, get #occupywallstreet noticed, but this is just as deserving as well. It's a shame that both haven't gotten equal air time.
@mymerrilymemory I do not disagree that what the police did is wrong. But let us not get misdirected - the fight is against corruption and corporate cronyism which is plaguing the United States. We should work towards getting the cops on our side and stand united.
Congrats, we have 220 people who are ready to defend themselves in the face of tyranny; 4 people are supporting this behavior from their 6-bdr houses.
This is a classic "Divide and rule" strategy people. DO NOT FALL FOR IT. The government and the corporate masters know how to play this game - they know that if the cops join the people in this struggle, then they have lost the war. If the cops and the military join arms with the people, the wall st crooks and their government cronies will lose. They will prevent this at any cost.
They will do this by turning the people against the cops.
@pkphilips2 Hmmm, as in Egypt, the military MAY join the people, but the cops never will. I can imagine good cops, I've probably seen good cops, but where I live when cop car goes by no one feels safe, it's like animals spotting predator. Their corruption, brutality, apathy, and the sense that all they care about is protecting their collective power has built up alot of bad will. Where i live, we have anti-police riots at least twice a years.Maybe things are better elsewhere, but will they stay?
@pkphilips2 I can't believe that one can be so naive as to really think that the police, even one single officer, is just going to cross the line and support the demonstrators. You are comparing what is taking place here with events in Libya or Egypt. Sorry, but not anytime soon.
@pkphilips2 If you are from the UK why are you undermining the US People? What do you actually know? And what do you care about any of this? Are you a dummy channel for the Banks????
MSNBC has not covered the protests thus far.. and all of a sudden they turn up with a lot of indignation about the protests and the story is about how the cops are always using too much force in this country? No mention about the occupy wall street protests, what the protests are about etc..

Kudos to O'Donnell for having the balls to show what's happening. Cops have always been dirty, and that will never change. No matter how bad they might get screwed by the Wall St. Gang, they will still break your head if the bosses want to see it happen. More people need to head to NYC.
This is a concerted effort by the media to turn the people against the cops. Did you notice that not once did Lawrence O'Donnell say anything about what the wall st companies are doing to hurt the people or justify in any way the reason why the people are protesting? No - not once did he mention it. This is an attempt at redirection by the media - they are trying to dissipate the movement by redirecting the ire of the people.
Please people. Don't buy the message this video is sending out. The media is trying to turn the people against the cops and the cops against the people - because cops have been slowly turning and starting to support the people. There are idiots among them, but many cops are aware that the people are on their side - these men have lost pensions because of the things that the wall st companies have done. They feel a lot of the pain that the rest of the people feel.
@malkia76 That sounds like a convient cover for a reptilian who's cover was momentarily partly blown, I watched it again, the words in the background and his tie all seem pretty steady and his voice remains clear but for a breif moment you can start to see his reptilian traits- @8;45
Can everyone see the shape shift happen? Great video, I only hope more reptilians begin to stand up for the people instead of working against us as I believe most do.
We must defend our brave police officers in these difficult times, as they fight against these violent, out of control apes. Thank you, NYPD, for protecting us productive members of society from its disgusting leeches with arms outstretched asking for another glass of milk to go with their cookie.
BLAME COPS... NOT WALL STREET. ITS WALLSTREET WHO PUT THOSE COPS IN A BAD SPOT JUST LIKE THEY HAVE PUT AMERICA IN A BAD SPOT. NOW POOR COPS ARE PROTECTING THEM, AND TAKING ALL THE HEAT? OPEN YOUR EYES!!!
And of course, thanks to Mr. O'Donnell for bringing us this important story that most of the US media (conglomerates) have decided to select out of the corpus of what we need to know to function as citizens rather than livestock.
Give peace a chance? Too much killing. That's a big part of what needs to stop. Complicated too. Surrender but don't give yourself away much harder than visceral reaction. Just like positive freedom is hard work because it actually has to produce something whereas negative freedom is cheap, easy, and ultimately meaningless in the face of greed which will consume everything until this is a gray dead world. It's all perfectly legal...
One rubber gun coming up... the guy is a nut job or a political commissar! He was spraying his own guys! It used to be more widespread, then it went away for a few years. Since the late 1970's opposition went silent, a few test cases showed it was okay to do this again. About the time capital punishment was reinstated I believe... forgive this old saying. " You are answered in the same tone you shouted out in ." Handy if you are trying to create a problem for political reasons?
@Tenniya777 Actually IT IS all pigs. That's the problem. Even a busted clock can be right twice a day. A rotting apples can still have a couple of taste bites. It's time to end the "It's just a few bad apples" meme/disclaimer. The pigs exist to kill us. they're on the WRONG SIDE of the class war. They are the enemy.

@SummersEquinox So you think that someone has to be seriously injured or dead before it becomes a problem? I don't care if it was just a paper cut. The issue is not about how badly they were attacked but WHY they were attacked. Those people were merely practicing their american rights of free speech. They posed NO THREAT to the police. The job of the police is to protect the rights of americans not to show off their muscle. The department needs to take responsibility.

The U.S. is an amazing place for the fact that we can hold these protests alone. These were a couple of overzealous officers trying to prevent a rowdy protest from becoming a riot. They made some poor judgments; this was not part of a systemic problem with police brutality.

Kids offense, he called the officals mother a bad name!?! I had to order the fool out of the room. You go watch it 1st hand and see it is often "as seen on tv".

I honestly cannot say I'm surprised. Wall Street already owns the nation at the state and national level, why should it be any difference at the local level, especially on their home turf.
I love the idea of people standing up to the rich, but even this is clearly not the way to do it. Corporate influence is so prevalent in America today that peaceful protest will accomplish exactly nothing, as will letter-writing or all the other standby tactics of the politically malcontent.

Even if this movement had some kind of stable leadership, it still likely wouldn't get anything done, and as it is all it's going to accomplish is making Wall Street smell like ass and patchouli, and even that will fade, along with this group's minor accomplishments, once they all finally leave.
Wall Street clearly owns our government, our politicians, our media, and half of our countrymen. But they do not yet own us. And that is our last recourse.

Making the connection between Wall street and the Police is critical. Culpability should not be confused and limited to just the white shirt police officers. The connection the public needs to be aware of is where their orders come from to subdue a movement like this at the steps of the worlds largest financial market. When that connection is made Americans will be forced to question their government and the financial oligarchy that manipulates the police. To change the world you must be strong

@TRINITYNTB I agree with most of your points, but I would argue that the "permit to assemble" was granted hundreds of years ago with the 1st Amendment. "protest permits" just seems silly. Now if they are indeed blocking the streets and disrupting the general flow of business, that's one thing. Shame on them for that. But they have a constitutional right to peaceful protest in principle.

There are idiots among them, but many cops are aware that the people are on their side - these men have lost pensions because of the things that the wall st companies have done. They feel a lot of the pain that the rest of the people feel.
DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE MEDIA.

The officer goes by Anthony V. Bologna, according to this Common Dreams dot Org. He is a WTC "hero" according to his medals.

@malkia76 That sounds like a convient cover for a reptilian who's cover was momentarily partly blown, I watched it again, the words in the background and his tie all seem pretty steady and his voice remains clear but for a breif moment you can start to see his reptilian traits- @8;45

@ 8;46 proof he is a reptilian-
Can everyone see the shape shift happen? Great video, I only hope more reptilians begin to stand up for the people instead of working against us as I believe most do.

We must defend our brave police officers in these difficult times, as they fight against these violent, out of control apes. Thank you, NYPD, for protecting us productive members of society from its disgusting leeches with arms outstretched asking for another glass of milk to go with their cookie.

And of course, thanks to Mr. O'Donnell for bringing us this important story that most of the US media (conglomerates) have decided to select out of the corpus of what we need to know to function as citizens rather than livestock.

Give peace a chance? Too much killing. That's a big part of what needs to stop. Complicated too. Surrender but don't give yourself away much harder than visceral reaction. Just like positive freedom is hard work because it actually has to produce something whereas negative freedom is cheap, easy, and ultimately meaningless in the face of greed which will consume everything until this is a gray dead world. It's all perfectly legal...

As far as I'm concerned, this is grounds for killing the cops. It would be self defense.

One rubber gun coming up... the guy is a nut job or a political commissar! He was spraying his own guys! It used to be more widespread, then it went away for a few years. Since the late 1970's opposition went silent, a few test cases showed it was okay to do this again. About the time capital punishment was reinstated I believe... forgive this old saying. " You are answered in the same tone you shouted out in ." Handy if you are trying to create a problem for political reasons?

Thank you Mr. O'donnell for being brave enough to tell the truth, this video should be sent to every police department in the entire United States.

@Tenniya777 Actually IT IS all pigs. That's the problem. Even a busted clock can be right twice a day. A rotting apples can still have a couple of taste bites. It's time to end the "It's just a few bad apples" meme/disclaimer. The pigs exist to kill us. they're on the WRONG SIDE of the class war. They are the enemy.
