  • Haha

  • how the FUCK are they "perfectly peaceful" throwing shit, disturbing our fucking peace, shitting and pissing all over our public parks, fuck them all

  • @702MyLife All provoked by police. And they weren't "shitting and pissing" over everything.

  • @702MyLife i agree!

  • you should count how many times he says uh

  • FUCK THE PROTESTERS! GO CAPITALISM!

  • whos this retard...they should have been using real bullets

  • @bsilky2669 So agreed bro.

  • Angry...

    

  • A TOMAR LAS ARMAS COMO EN LATINOAMERICA, LA REVOLUCION TIENE QUE COMENZAR, EL GOBIERNO LES HA DADO LA ESPALDA SALUDOS DESDE ARGENTINA, NUNCA MAS A LOS GORILAS

  • @nelsonvak1 what

  • @crackaInDaTrunk Jobs do not simply appear, I don't thing you understand that 10% of people looking for jobs can't find them, if you count the ones who don't look any more because they believe it is hopeless, the rate is somewhere between 15 and 25 percent. That's possibly 1 fourth of the entire population that simply can not find jobs. The jobs aren't there to be found, it's not as if these people don't want jobs, it's that not even McDonalds is hiring!

  • @crackaInDaTrunk You are an idiot.

  • Im just wondering why you call this show "The Young Turks" when theres not ever about the turkish opinion, I mean its not like you are spectating som happening out of a turk´s point of view, right?

  • national shame. instigators and infiltrators will cause m ore deaths and havoc

  • MEDIC....lol...lol....Ohh pro Occupy Wall street...but those dudes screaming MEDIC...really?...Do they really think they are in a war? LOL....MEDIC....

  • @LOPS666Orange they arent in a war, but medic is always yelled out when somebody needs a medic. Not just in war zones.

    With so much noise, they cant talk at normal decibals and be heard, they need to try getting above the noise and hope somebody with medical training hears, so they yell medic. Nothing unusual there unless you just want to make fun of them for no good reason.

  • @LOPS666Orange lets also not forget, he had many vets around him and some of those helping him may be used to using that word instead of doctor after spending years using it.

  • Occupy a job you fucking douchebags... go police

  • Freedom of assembly or is that another useless right...sigh

  • @Kimyumoto16

    And of course you're ignoring the amount of disturbances and traffic these protests causes. What about the right to keep make as much wealth and keep as much wealth?

  • To see who came looking for a riot...

    See who came dressed for a riot.

  • Where are the horses and police dogs?

  • you cant show 2 videos of 1 incident and then pass it off of evidence as to what exactly happened. extremely poor journalism

  • under chain of command good people can do evil things.

  • Please, just eliminate the huge bias. This story needs none, its obvious how much bull the cops are doing and it's obvious that it's horrible, but this isn't a 'peaceful' protest entirely (Though it's no where near violent) You said yourself that the protestors were throwing kitchen utensils. I FULLY SUPPORT THIS PROTEST. I'm just saying you don't need to slant something that doesn't need to be slanted.

  • The cops at all Occupy locations should fire real bullets and clean out the gene pool.

  • @hofifut please.. do that ! .. please do .. then you better hide under a rock

  • The subtitle for this should read: "After the protesters threw rocks and glass bottles at the police officers."

  • @ProudSpeakerofWhale Yeah the cops were obviously hanging around minding their own business when unarmed protesters decided to pick a fight with riot geared police.... sure bud. Why are the cops there at all, no reported rioting or looting. It's legal to protest in America FYI. Cops are there to protect and serve. This just goes to show that you can demonize your own population if need be and idiots will go along with it.

  • As long as big money controls our government and not the citizen's votes then this sort of disgraceful behavior by the police is going to keep happening.

  • I dislike what happened there, although I like real news.

  • WE WANT PEACE AND THE GOVERNMENT WANTS A REVOLUTION

  • Im glad the US is not like the UK, when they destroyed everything when they protested. US shouldn't be gassed or bean bagged if they weren't hurting or harming anything.

  • Not that I could imagine planning to harm people, though.

  • Slavoj zizek also said something I would really like to share: "The people in power are always against violence, because they are in power". I think protesters never get away with violence, but the powerful can get what they want without using it. That's the essential difference between the class positions and it's why they keep trying to make us think that violence is the ultimate disqualifier of protesters.

  • @Ollie9402

    I remember the violent protests of the 1960s and they DID work to help change the country for the better. Nothing short of burning cities to the ground as they did back then will make politicians bend to the will of the people. It seems that power always corrupts and our government has become the proof of that.

  • I think people too easily talk about non-violence being the only good strategy. It's hard to do nothing if the 500 people come and attack your people, destroy their temporary homes and crack your neighbour's skull.

  • Where's Bill Hicks where you need him, to tear a new hole into the govmnt, the cops, the evil fuckers out there.

  • Police are sadistic, brutal psychopaths. As usual, the police are the CAUSE of all the violence.

  • The fucking dumb protesters aren't gonna change a thing... They deserve what cops do to them...

  • People should manifest in full combat gear and dig fox holes if need be. When the pigs show up, open up on them.

  • The protesters should fire back with live ammunition.

  • @DickCheneyXX I'm sure you'd like that.

  • @DickCheneyXX the crowd should fire back with Molotov cocktails!!!...

  • Oakland PD your a DISGRACE, to the Badge!!!!!! Every F'en one of you!!! Chief, Captains, Lts, Sgts, officers all TOTAL DISGRACE!!!!

  • America, land of the free my ass.

  • @70sgitbox well said looks like some criminal tried to call it spam

  • @Drauglain you to ,take care

  • @Drauglain i agree well said .

  • @Drauglain ya i guess so ,its not easy to know everything.

  • @Exernox Cenk's reference article in the description sections specifies it. It's also police policy and there are news cameras everywhere etc. They aren't just going to walk up and without ANY warning start lobbing tear gas. In fact I do believe Cenk's referenced article specifies they gave multiple warnings.

    Cenk didn't bother to mention that though. So the people that were injured or whatever could have avoided it entirely if they had left when the cops lawfully told them to.

  • @XMansv They have a right to protest on Public Ground, as said in one of the parts of the article they were removed from the park there and moved the protest to where this occured. It has already been proven to be lawful in protesting in a public park as with NYC in Zucotti Park, they had to come up with a random law about health hazards due to trash to try to remove them. When they cleaned it up the police didn't have any choice but to leave them alone BECAUSE WHAT THEY ARE DOING IS LEGAL.

  • @tj203 It really does not occur to you that NYC (a city) the state of New York and Oakland (a different city in a different state) don't have the same laws - does it. You don't know things like that do you.

    You think what you hear about in one place must be the same in some other place because both are places.

    You should not try to argue with me, you are dumb as a fucking rock. JC.

    Fucktard.

  • @tj203 ya i heard that,i hear the unions came and said they would be there and help

  • "Loathe terrorists, traitors to the US constitution and computer virus creators.

    Change America in a big way? NO - please leave if you want to do that.

    Deport ALL illegal aliens and hard left progressives with them.

    Cut government size and spending.

    Stronger military, more guns, more cops, more jails."

    - XMansv

    I don't know why people even bother to argue with a guy this crazy. Its best just to ignore him.

  • @WimpyMcWeaksauce Post about me but not to me. You picked the right name for yourself there Wimpy.

    Loser.

  • @RoGDeantoir "I can't believe you're still shiting on about it. Jaysus...." - you say that to me as you continue posting to me? You really are a fucking moron aren't you. You critisize someone for something you are actually doing at that very moment and don't even recognize it.

    I claimed he lies constantly. I made 4 or 5 posts with examples. You picked one, insulted me, kept coming at me and you just keep going.

    He's a liar - thanks for helping me bear that out. Fucktard.

  • @RoGDeantoir You claimed what I said was not true, called me a "fucking moron" then AFTER I POSTED THE ACTUAL QUOTE you come at me again with more bullshit.

    One thing has been proven that is for sure - you're an ass.

  • @RoGDeantoir I knew you would not provide the quote because it does not exist. So I guess your "You fucking moron" actually belongs pointed at yourself doesn't it.

    So like the typical Cenk-tard who doesn't know any issue deeper then Cenk's surface propaganda you resort to personal BS.

    You lose fucktard. Now go into my spelling and grammer...

  • @RoGDeantoir Or shut the fuck up.

  • @RoGDeantoir Bullshit. So why didn't you copy it into here like I did.

    Cussing huh? Notice where you said "You fucking moron" to me asshole?

    You can't keep anything fucking straight can you fucktard.

    Now paste in your quote...

  • @RoGDeantoir I did read it lying fuck it says:

    "At a late-night news conference, the city’s acting police chief, Howard Jordan, said officers needed to use tear gas after protesters threw rocks and bottles at them."

    You didn't read it you lying Cnek cock sucking piece of shit!!!

  • @Exernox I made four posts - source for which one?

    You might try starting with a little common sense and reasoning - unless you're a Cenk follower - in that case just don't bother and instead just kinda memorize and repeat many times as is the norm for Cenk followers.

  • THIS VIDEO is about 8 minutes long. I've only got through 2:30 of it or so and already found 5 exagerations/lies/emotional ploys/misdirections - you name it.

    Cenk is a liar. He can't go a full two minutes telling the truth.

    It makes me sick you people fall for this simple shit.

    Cenk you are a miserable piece of shit - you know it (as these things you do are clearly purposful) and I know it.

    Fuck you piece of shit for hating your own country. Die pig.

  • "he actually did two tours in Iraq and never comes back here doing peaceful protests and got hurt when the cops fired tear canisters" - Cenk 2:20

    What does his doing tour in Iraq have to do with anything? Soldier got killed and injured in Iraq - this one did not. That is random. Its unrelated to the issue but Cenk uses it to play on your emotions and to further anger you at the "other side" on this issue.

    Blatant propaganda techniques.

  • @RoGDeantoir "they talked about how the protestors might have thrown kitchen utinsils at them at some point they are back to that excuse" - Cenk 0:44

    "Excuse"? Do you have any evidence that isn't true? Would you like to have someone throw knives and forks at you Cenk? You play it down like its cowardly or an excuse for a person to not want to have knives or forks thrown at them. Why don't you go have someone throw knives and forks at you Cenk?

  • @RoGDeantoir "when we reported that story yesterday the cops were saying 'well we might have used some flash grenades but we think maybe one of the protestors threw tear gas at us'" - Cenk 0:37

    What cops said that Cenk? Was that the official statement by the police dept or was that just something one cop on the street you asked who might not have even known said? Where's you footage of the cops saying that?

  • @XMansv and you think cops dont lie , your a idiot arent you

  • @AJEdaAssassin31491 As for Justin Timberlake--- I am a classic rock fan! I've never listened to nor intend to listen to your boyfriend, this Timberlake person!!!

  • @MultiSamTaylor (Face palm) -_-

  • @AJEdaAssassin31491 Fuck you, you moronic stooge! If anyone needs to shut up it's the undereducated, IQ-deficient moron (to make things easier for you I will spell it out Y-O-U)!

  • why is that guy yelling "MEDIC!" Like if he was in Iraq or something.

  • @XMansv full of shit

  • @XMansv Calm down Rush Limbaugh. Did you forget to take your meds today?

  • @XMansv

    Stop trolling for the Banksters!

  • "as the cops decide to raid where they were" - Cenk 0:08

    Cops enforce laws. The had been told by politicians to stand down for some limited amount of time so they did. Once that ended, they had to enforce the law - that is their job. Everyone knows this. Cenk characterizing it the way he does causes you to belive the cops had some choice in it.

  • @petersz98 "they had fired tear gas into the crowd to clear out the protestors" - Cenk 0:15

    Cenk does not bother to mention that the cops told the protestors to disperse many times before they fired tear gas. The protestors chose to ignore the lawful order of the cops. They got tear gassed. Thats how it works.

  • @XMansv

    People have a constitutional right to peacefully assemble. Breaking up peaceful assembles by force is what fascist states do. But then again the USA is already fast becoming a fascist state ruled by plutocrats and banksters.

  • @petersz98 I think THEY DID peacefully assemble DIDN'T THEY? I swear to God I've been seeing them on the news for weeks doing that? Didn't you see that?

    Does the constitution gurantee that they can do it indefinitely in a public park where over night camping is illegal?

    I don't think so. Do you see the difference?!?!?!? You turn these simple common sense facts somehow into fascism?!!?

    In fascism they'd have sent soldiers and machine gunned down the protestors in the first 30 minutes!!!

  • @XMansv

    The USA is already a fascist state. The merging of corporations and government is fascism according to Mussolini that's why Italy from 1920 to 1943 was refereed to as the "corporate state". Obama is a puppet of the banksters. If a jeweller sold you a diamond knowing it was glass, he would be committing a criminal offence, right? The banksters did the same thing selling on toxic worthless securitized mortgages with triple AA rating and then shorted them. So why are none in jail? Duh!

  • @petersz98 Falsifying records can be a criminal offence. It is in many of these cases, I think it is still under investigation. There probably will be people going to jail. I'm not claiming there isn't corruption, I think there is. I think crimes were committed and the fucks should go to jail for a VERY long time.

    Just because I hate scumbag politicians and greedy lying bankers etc does not mean I like fucks like Cenk lying also.

    The point being that the lies damage all of us including Cenks.

  • @XMansv the constitituion overrides the law dumb ass. one group of people once stopped toxic dumb the police came there and said your under arest in name of the people, the twenty people said we are the people. really dude your one dumb ass hole, go live in china

  • @tomanyasses "the constitituion overrides the law" - again proving you are a total moron.

    When there is a law that is unconstitutional it is challenged and goes before the supreme court which rules on if it is unconstitutional or not. You think protesting in a park where it's against the law to stay over night or for weeks - you think that has not been challenged in one way or another at some point in the past?

    Of course you don't, you don't even know what I'm talking about do you fucktard!

  • @XMansv pull your head out of your ass hole when talking to me and wipe the shit off your face

  • go turk ,a man god should help more

  • @Drauglain i wish those who stand up get credit while the pukes do nothing but make excuses for not helping

  • you would think all the you tube videos would mention the occupy but they dont there all out for themselves. only the ones are like the turk

  • I don't get it why are people protesting? Is it because of high tax? Wow and I can't believe this happened in California and I didn't even know, I think am too slow on news

  • @minatahyuga your very very ignorant, go back to your games

  • @tomanyasses

    Come on, don't be too mean. I know he/she's totally ignorant but at least he/she had a bit of charm.

    And to the original poster, you can look these things up online you know!

  • @ViolentRiC smart ass

  • Guess this is our Egypt. I love to see people fight tyranny.

  • this is what happens when the people sit around and let things get bad, now  you want to do something. let the innocents out of jail they will help to

  • this isnt america anymore its a third world country run as a police state whose sole purpose is to protect the rich and wealthy (the ones with power) we must unite as a people and show them what real power is.

  • Listen up all you black policemen, if it wasn't for peaceful protesters in the 1960s you would still be in Alabama picking cotton. Now you are in New York City, Oakland California and other cities hurting arresting and trying to kill peaceful protesters. I don't wish all black people back on the farm picking cotton, but that it would be a good place for all black ass policemen to be.

  • @KYKIN44 well! who ever said blacks are smarter  than whites, bad whites means bad blacks.

  • That pussy ass should have used an AK 47 or better yet an RPG, that would have finished the job!

  • police is the private Army of the rich & ruling class paid for by the American taxpayer. The police will do anything that their Masters ask them to do. Police are armed & retarded they will hurt you & enjoy doing it. They get pleasure of out killing people. The more police we have more crime we have because they create laws to make criminal out of anyone. Because of all the military equipment that the police received from the Army, police R the extension of the US Army to hurt US citizens.

  • @KYKIN44 i would say 25% are criminals and work for money, not for morrals, then come the corrupt courts run by criminals and greedy lawyers

  • Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable.

  • @AmericanPoliceState Well this bunch of hippies sure as hell isn't going to start a violent revolution THEY DON'T HAVE ANY GODDAMN GUNS!!!!

    Ha ha ha that's funny, stupid fucking liberal idiots.

  • Until the workers have won this struggle over this beast. This on going killing machine that will not stop.

  • political establishment to gain Real Democracy once and for all. Now, be armed with cameras and also find other ways to communicate outside of the web. The government can shut it down and they can interrupt communications like we seen in Britain and some cases in the United States. Awareness and Prepare! Use social networking sites to spread the word, but also be active in your schools and classes. Passing out pamphlets to inform the students, parents etc in clubs, parties attack relentless.

  • The police can't be part of the 99% until the join us. Until they recognize who is the enemy of humanity. They are being used as the guards to the plutocratic system we have. We most continue to dedicate our time day in and day out to stop the machine. Nov. 2 we call all students, workers to the front line for a massive general strike! its up to us to mobilize are armies to spread the word (shockdoctrine) and mobilize factory workers as well. We need to occupy factories and step away from the

  • Fuck the police, the Revolution, WILL NOT BE KIND TO YOU PIGS.

  • Guess he should have kept his helmet... good luck, buddy and Godspeed to your wellness.

    Mess with the bull... you are lible to get the horns sooner or later.

  • re; elders of zion

  • LOL, it's about time....better late than never I guess.

    Love how the hipster is still trying to hang onto his bike while carrying the casualty. And yelling "MEDIC!"? Really? You turds aren't in a war movie. Why are you crying to The Man for help now? Just use your hemp and healing crystals.

  • Luis Farrakhan has decided to run for president 2012!

  • @ghustla74

    Well now we KNOW the world is ending!

  • @ProfessorxVile Farrkhan 2012,LETS GO!....thank you black jesus!

  • Pff fatass stop protecting this idiots

  • @TheYoungTurks

    *PLEASE* heed this:

    Words have incredible power. Anyone who disagrees is free to do so without using words to form their rebuttal.

    With this in mind, PLEASE don't use their obfuscating language e.g. rubber bullets, pepper spray, tear gas, bean bags

    It subverts their true nature. 'Baton rounds' are what 'rubber bullets and bean bags are' and 'acid powder' is what 'tear gas' is.

    If the media used these terms, people would understand the true dangers of these weapons.

  • ..just to clarify why this matters so much.

    The term 'Chinese water torture' is in our Western lexicon and rightly evokes thoughts of something horrible and frightening. Modern water torture has been dubbed 'water boarding' and we all know the power of this misuse of language to understate its hideous power.

    Scum like Fox will always take advantage of this, but ALL will follow suit unless *we* change our language. The terms must reflect the true dangers or these atrocities will be written off.

  • Rise up and take the power back

    It's time the fat cats had a heart attack

    They know that their time's coming to an end

    We have to unify and watch our flag ascend

    -Uprising, Muse

    Look, if you're a police officer and you choose to follow directions to attack peaceful protestors then you are, as Cenk would say, "the bad guys". You also deserve what retaliation may and should follow.

    The veneer of democracy has been torn down, expose their nakedness to the entire world. History will thank you.

  • @ViolentRiC if a civil war were to come, lefties like you will be the first to die....us redneck, hill-billy right-wingers would destroy you,....so be carefull what you wish for,junior.....

  • @corksterism

    Well, I hope you have some long range weaponry as I'm in London.

    Firstly, having a hard-on for gunfire only helps you if the opposition lacks firearms. Were a civil war to occur both sides would be armed, and yes the left would have the sense to train themselves just as you've done.

    But besides all that, what I'm looking for is not a civil war between civilians but a 're-boot' of parliament/government; regulations to prevent financial destruction and the oppression of freedom.

  • ...and now that I've clarified (as if it was necessary) precisely what I despise and what I would like to see change, how about you explain just what it is you disagree with.

    "Redneck hill-billy right-wingers" as you chose to put it, love to talk of freedom. Do you not, then, share my disgust at the freedom of these protestors being quashed? Or is it freedom to agree with your ideology alone? Secondly, do you approve of corporations and bankers destroying the global economy? Why are WE enemies?

  • Fuck da police

  • I applaud the police for teaching these spoiled, ignorant children a lesson is civics. You cannot defy the law and not end up getting hurt. Regulate the banks? Do these people know how much regulation all ready exists? I guess not because they don't actually intend on paying the debts.

  • timeisupUS@ obey the Law? Like the laws against the state shooting people without a trial or using violence against demenstrators? We have invaded and killed leaders of countries who shoot protesters. I'm sorry that their fustration with a one sided system is blemish on your beautiful life.

  • In Philadelphia, a group of 20-40 youths went on a rampage...resulting in 59 people being beaten and briefly hospitalized. ...a mob ran through the Wisconsin State Fair ...beating up people at random.

  • There are indications the protesters are training to incite violence, resist arrest and disrupt the legal system. The protest aims to take root nationwide. Activists are advertising on social network sites such as Facebook and Twitter for a "Day of Rage"

  • peaceful protest? nuh uh these are not peaceful protesters. they are disorderly lawless and engaging in civil disobedience. obey the laws, or get shot for inciting a riot

  • mmjj2@ because we like to try and maintain the illusion that we live in a democracy. They shoot protesters in other parts of the world. I suggest you move to a openly facist country if that's how you want to live.

  • @SteelMartini your rights to protest do not supercede my right to drive down the street or walk down the sidewalk. obey they laws shithead!

  • why didn't they just shoot these assholes!

  • its economy, not eoconomy btw

  • These robo-cops honestly think their tactics are valid because the 99% where throwing Sporks?? Even if that where the case, it still no excuse... Suck it up, Officer body armor--fuckin hog heads

  • iraq veteran was breaking the law!

  • @amptoys He was using his first Amendment rights, you know, the same ones that the Tea Party protesters are using.

  • @InvalidArguement No you dumbass. He was breaking the law! Tea Party does not break the law! We get a permit, and If we are asked to leave we do. This disgrace of a Marine was asked to disperse,when he did not, he broke the law! Invalid Idiot!

  • @amptoys The police are supposed to arrest people who break the Law, not shoot them in the head with a tear gas cannister. and then throw a flashbang on him when civillians come to his rescue.

  • Don't worry, these sewer rats will start eating each other soon enough

  • @deepsouth. You sir are off track

  • @1flowmedia. Everything DeepSouth16 says is off track which isn't a surprise since their username is DeepSouth16.

  • I am Scott Olson

  • where is our vigilante sniper when you need them. some one will pick up this need for leveling the playing field...

  • Apparently a police order has more authority then the constitution.

  • how come the cops never record their own video to show their side of it?

  • @XSC3 because Faux News is already doing that for them.

  • Here lies John Rambo, winner of the Congressional Medal of Honor, survivor of countless incursions behind enemy lines. Killed for vagrancy in Jerkwater, USA.

  • @spliffsperlunk Are you saying the veteran died?

  • @spliffsperlunk vagrancy?,...no....being a pain in the ass to good Americans? yup..

  • @spliffsperlunk

    Rambo is in Gitmo, being investigated for possible ties to al-Qaida since he fought with the mujahadeen against the Russians.

  • @ProfessorxVile haha

  • support the bankers and the police

  • Maybe some of these police forces are soldiers from foreign nations?

  • Fucking Banker bitches.

  • Opinions are like assholes. Everybody' has one. Don't throw shit at the police.

  • @sikfist If we believe the police version of events.

    We have video footage to support the protester accounts, but no evidence to support any of the ever changing stories given by the Oakland PD.

  • I was at the action and got tear gassed. If that happened in Tehran, the media would be outraged.

  • Have you noticed how Obama has stayed the fuck out of the spotlight since the protests? Do you remember how MUCH he used to be on TV before that?

  • fuck da police!

  • Remember when the protests in Libya started? It turned into a civil war... The same is going to happen in the US
