  • As a former police officer, I have to say these thug cops need to be arrested and thrown into prison for doing this to the people they are suppose to be protecting

  • My problem with the story that they are thieves is the fact that the protesters are just standing there waiting for the police and I would think conspiracy to commit grand theft or even petty theft would make big network news with that many people involved. Did they actually attempt to steal or are they just accused of attempted theft by potential slanderers. Now let’s talk about slander oops, I mean libelous slander since it is written down.

    That would be an actual crime.

  • Who REALLY runs our world? search "israel Did 911" and search "ZionCrimeFactory" for proof.

    "US Rep. McKinney has accused the pro-Israel Lobby in America (AIPAC, ADL, etc) for ruining her political career.She refused to sign the pro-Israel pledge from Congress and took a pro-Palestinian stance. Because of this, she said “war was declared” on her by them. In 2009 she told TIU's Ognir that “more than 99% of Congress work for Zionist-Israeli interests.”

  • Now show the protest in Russia RT.

  • @Beef1188 OWS planning it and trying to seize it very publicly is somehow "false flag" propaganda? LMAO. Ah ok, that makes sense. Have a lovely day!

  • @TruthatCearcie Lol, you've "proven me wrong"? I've shown how factually you were wrong, Then you start trying to support an indefensible position that somehow it is justified because it isn't "theft" but "squatting". Facts and logic appear lost on you. Have a nice day!

  • @nickedoso You obviously do not know the intricacies of false-flag propaganda or you are refusing to understand it because of your anti-ows agenda. This conversation is terminated!

  • cops get double time for protest details.. just sayin

  • @nickedoso

    lol, I am done with you. I have already proven you wrong, feel free to take that to court

  • @TruthatCearcie And therein lies the basic problem with your argument. You have a problem with the concept of private property apparently, which means that the people that own the property have the say over it. If they don't then it ceases to be theirs; it is stolen from them. It's actually a troubling concept that people would appear to be arguing against that.

  • @Beef1188 The problem with your argument is that this was not an isolated incident of a few people, but a consensus action voted on by OWS NYC. They announced they were going to do it days in advance. They published posters threatening it, and spoke to media about doing it. They asserted it was their right to do so, to re-occupy "our commons", essentially by fiat. I'm sorry if people can't see the problem with that.
