Occupy Wall Street Protesters Arrested (Camera #1)

September 20th, 2011 at 10:08AM EST in Zuccotti Park, New York, NY

Police specifically came to target tarps protecting belongings and equipment, with the idea of preventing the occupation to continue in a safe and sane way. People were hurt for no reason other than the police wanting to disrupt our peaceful actions.

america is fucked up. I feel sorry for the people there.

@seansellstoys How does someone have no business being on a public street? Do you think the right to protest isn't important? They just seem like average people to me, they're the problem with America? What about corporate giants who build their own monopoly's and drive the American economy into the ground? I really think that if you legitimately thought about what you're watching for one second that you would know everything you said is incorrect.

@TabJunk Your comment just made me laugh...

How do you know "half of those people don't have a job"?

How do you know "they don't pay taxes"?

Liberty Plaza is OPEN 24/7 to the public. They have the right to be there at night/day!

"Your family pays them"? Really?

THANKS for the laugh!!!

@Sylverdryad I hope YOU know half of those people have no jobs, don't pay taxes, and are breaking the law by occupying that area. Technically disturbing the peace. In fact the government is paying them "welfare" and you say they help us. I'm twelve and my TAX PAYING FAMILY pays them to occupy that place. If you think you could stand up to an argument like mine you can do so. But you wont win. THEY ARE BREAKING THE LAW. How would you like 5000 people in front of your house/store

In fact the government is paying them "welfare" and you say they they're what america needs and they are only doing what the constitution says?!. I'm twelve and my TAX PAYING FAMILY pays them to occupy that place. If you think you could stand up to an argument like mine you can do so. But you wont win.

Do police officers know, we the people pay their salaries? When we buy at a store, when we pay our phone, gas, etc. we pay taxes. The government use our tax money to pay their salaries.

Ounce again, making a dumbass video, making the people that risk their lives everyday to protect you, look like evil people. That policeman is recording so that if him and his police buds get sued for like "assault" they can show that these wallstreet people were the ones causing the problem.

It has been and was reported in the news about the rapes and murders. These PEACEFUL protestors trespassed on public property, pitched tents, got doped up, where asked to leave by the cities they invaded, and yet they refused to leave. The police had every right to take what ever measures were necessary to get these PEACEFUL protestors off public property. People do have the right to protest, but they don't have the right to break the law!!

@OU812ICRUNVS Who ever said they raped and killed anybody? I'm pretty sure I didn't. I mean, did anyone else see me say this? It's funny how they were told to leave...with the club of a policemans. When the man in this video, was tied up with those plastic handcuff things (sorry, I don't know what they're called) and was bleeding, was he asked if he was okay? Was he asked to leave? No. He was abused, beaten, and mistreated by people we are supposed to trust. People have a right to protest.

@paullauer

Now that's funny how you say these PEACEFUL protestors, having raped and killed one another and defied the the law by trespassing and staying on public property when told to leave, are trying to make a difference! These PEACEFUL protestors have defied authority from day one and they continue to do so. Only in America can one hate their country and then look to the Constitution to allow them to protest!
