NYPD probed over assault on OWS protesters

Uploaded by RTAmerica on Oct 18, 2011
New York police officers may be given a sharp rap over the knuckles for allegedly heavy-handed tactics against 'Occupy Wall Street' protesters. And it's this video, taped last Friday, that gave ground for one of the inquiries. The officer, thought to be a deputy inspector, was filmed grabbing an activist from behind, punching him in the face, and knocking him to the ground. An independent agency that deals with complaints against New York's police says it's also looking into an officer using pepper spray on peaceful female protesters. The campaign against big business and banking in the U.S. has entered its fifth week. And as RT's Lucy Kafanov reports, the movement is becoming more and more popular.

I'm not gonna argue w theses tools who don't want change and wanna pretend everything is ok. The protests in NY are 300,000 strong. Lets wreak some real havoc. Tear that city apart until we get change. No one can stop us now, there are too many of us. We are going to have to remove people from power by force. It will get far worse before it gets better. Some will die, but it will be for the greatest cause of ALL of our lifetimes.

@wilmaster1984 Haha, I like that. A little tired of the anti-Americans using slick Fox news platitudes and backwards logic. "If you don't like watching a constitutional republic in action, gtfo!" I just hope it makes some of them wake the fuck up though, they're licking the boots of the same people who will be stomping their heads in, just because they can, after some more unlawful legislation is passed and more rights are thrown in the gutter, they just don't understand it.

I guess civilians must form their own armies and police forces because government police are not there to protect them.
