Battle on the Brooklyn Bridge

In an attempt to take the Occupy Wall Street movement to the boroughs of New York City, approximately 700 protesters were arrested over the weekend on the Brooklyn Bridge. After the arrests many are questioning what the role of law enforcement should be and if NYPD gave proper warning prior to those arrested. Marcel Cartier, rap artist and Wall Street protester, explains to us what it was like being on the Brooklyn Bridge and what really happened.

I really dislike that woman. call it instinct.

Those were typo's don't nit pick. The basis of ur argument was lame, you said he's white using it as a reason to discredit him...When you did't even know his origins. So yes, i call that ignorant. My point is stop taking shots at people trying 2 talk in aid of a better situation for the masses, because you aren't special. Do something grammar specialist.

@devolution28 Judging from your grammar you don't understand what Capitalism is either. And "labelled him white"? What does that even mean? Perhaps you shouldn't have dropped out of school. The only point I actually agree with you on is that the general U.S. population is ignorant. But it appears the U.S. is not the only country with a generally ignorant population.

Infact it has 2 do with all those effected by the colonialists..Have u seen what Libyans, Egyptians, Morrocans look like? Once again i say..Ur ignorant..Ur a supporter but what do u do 2 support.Go listen 2 his music and see what he is doing..He is using the childish Hip Hop of a medium of explaining 2 the youth what is being done 2 all the 3rd world and all the 99%...So grow up an understand that every efforts help, even if ur ignorants ass dont aknowledge it.

@devolution28 China is moving toward capitalism, which is why they grow more powerful everday. I agree that the system is designed to keep poor people poor, but that is done thru strict government regulation that prevent someone from starting a business and growing to their full extent. China is actually more capitalist than the US. If you ever have the chance to visit there and do business with them, (I have family members who do) then you can see this for yourself.

@AtheistPatriot1

Fuck you you donno shit..In china they are implimnting it Quite well hence the new world order plans 2 destroy it..Anyway its not about Capilism, Its about sheer greed. This capitalism in the US is an unfair one where the poor cannot compete and will always remain poor, They set the rest up for failure.
