Occupy Wall Street 3: Now What?

>they bust that thing out in tampa during spring break all the time nbd

good to know. in the same way that using pepper spray against citizens has apparently been standard operating procedure for nearly 20 years now without any outrage or reporting, I imagine most cops are wondering what the sudden big deal is

On Sunday, protesters plan to rally outside the American Music Awards at L.A.'s Nokia Theatre with the support of Black Eyed Peas rapper Will.i.am, and even plan to put on an Occupy after party, according to Clapier. Will.i.am couldn't be reached to confirm his involvement.

suuuuuuuuuuuuuure

let's raid random houses to check if the battery in their smoke detector is working. if it's not working let's evacuate the residents. fire hazard is no joke.

Pretty decent mainly sociological take on the state of modern anti-protest police functionality. As an addendum to the previous link.

Occupy Springfield (MA) confronts anti-gay minister.

Lively is the the author of "The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality in the Nazi Party," which asserts that Germany's Nazi party was conceived, organized and controlled ... by masculine-oriented male homosexuals."

Chancellor Katehi should call up her hired sadist John Pike and have him pepperspray her driver for violating California Vehicle Code Section 27315 Mandatory Seat Belt Law.

feel like there's a good chance ows will be more fairly university-centered for the next few weeks thanks to mr. pike

Charles J. Kelly, a former Baltimore Police Department lieutenant who wrote the department’s use of force guidelines, said pepper spray is a “compliance tool” that can be used on subjects who do not resist, and is preferable to simply lifting protesters.

“When you start picking up human bodies, you risk hurting them,” Kelly said. “Bodies don’t have handles on them.”

After reviewing the video, Kelly said he observed at least two cases of “active resistance” from protesters. In one instance, a woman pulls her arm back from an officer. In the second instance, a protester curls into a ball. Each of those actions could have warranted more force, including baton strikes and pressure-point techniques.

“What I’m looking at is fairly standard police procedure,” Kelly said.

otm

Holy shit, this vid is awesome. When you can't get louder or more raucous, freak the fuck outta people with the power of your silence. You can't even hear footsteps.

Waitamin, digitalSLRs are still as loud as analog ones? that's a lot of cameras snapping.

"Like I said, the real turning point came when we got involved in the encampment. I grew more in the course of that month than I had in several years. It was such an intense experience that it drew us all together; those who shared it as a common reference point were bonded for years afterwards regardless of how their paths diverged. Time itself passed differently. Because I never knew what would happen next, it often felt like I'd lived through a week by the time I lay down at the end of the day. In the heat of that urgency, our different pasts and uncertain futures fell away and all that remained was the concentrated rush of the present."
-- from 'Expect Resistance,' 2007.

silver lining on this wound up being that it was reported in most local outlets as OCCUPIERS RESCUE BABY

RATS RAISE BABY AS THEIR OWN
