Occupy London: Police Charge the Steps of St. Paul's

[clarkboutwell]

Why don't the protesters at these things just charge the damn line of police. There is like a thousand of protesters versus a line of police armed with nothing but batons and tear gas. They won't be able to use their guns until too late. We could kick some ass and send statements that we are not going to take this shit. But instead we say, "Why are you arresting me?" in a voice like we are stoned. You committed a crime by camping in a park, but for the good of your country. Why not grow a pair?

Bloody animals.

Don't chant 'peaceful'; it clearly is not. Defend yourselves.

Well they must have some reaction either public in Joe public or some reaction from the occupiers to allow and ensure the whole behaviour of all concerned is justified. To much action by the police will back fire and to little response to the occupiers requests will back fire. The movement will be short and the reports very unfavourable to all in ensuring at public condemnation of all and forget the real issues which started this occupation Its called another con

"The role of the police is not to serve and protect the people. It is to serve and protect the system that rules over the people. To enforce the relations of exploitation and oppression, the conditions of poverty, misery and degradation into which the system has cast people and is determined to keep people in. The law and order the police are about, with all of their brutality and murder, is the law and the order that enforces all this oppression and madness. " Bob Avakian

. The pepper spraying incident that took place in NYC was a perfect example of this. During this incident, we as a people kept our peace, maintained ourselves and did not react in a way that the Police Officer wished we would have. Reacting with anger and violence would have created a major shutdown of the protest. This shows that the way forward is to no longer react to circumstances around us and instead to focus upon what we choose to create……. From reaction to creation.

@sedonastarman99 said "During this incident, we as a people kept our peace"

But how much patience do we have left? If the police continue to use violence against us then shouldn't we push back, defend ourselves and other that they choose to bully? Where is the line in the sand here because from a personal perspective the police crossed it long ago?

[sedonastarman99]

I have witnessed that there is an energy amongst us here on our planet, that continuously seeks to piss us off and to keep us angry and in a place of fear. This Energy is designed to make us weak, disempower us and destroy our inner peace.
