Saw a bunch of these idiots marching down Broadway yesterday, beating on buckets and carrying banners demanding free healthcare. Luckily there weren't that many of them so the intersection was only blocked for 2-3 minutes. 12/5/2011 12:28:04 PM |

Wow...I'm now amazed at the restraint those cops exhibited in only pepper spraying some of that crowd and waiting so long before they did. There is no doubt in my mind they acted correctly given the situation. 12/5/2011 4:49:36 PM |

I missed that part in the Bill of Rights that says surrounding cops and threatening them is assembling peacefully. All the cops wanted to do was come in, grab the tents, and leave. That's it.12/5/2011 5:28:31 PM |

I mean, you can't keep someone from going somewhere like that. THAT MUCH is highly illegal. The protesters should never have said that the police officers can leave IF.... That was really stupid
having said that much
Don't forget that the police officers were fucking stepping over the circle of protesters that was "preventing them from coming and going". Calling "saying someone can't leave your circle, but allowing them to come and go as they please" a threat is a bit silly.] 12/5/2011 5:44:23 PM |

U.S. Military Preparing for Martial Law against the American People! Even before 9/11, the Military has been training our soldiers how to shut down cities, confiscate guns, and put Americans in camps.
Watch for yourself.

Oh, I'm sorry, we should only train for wars that we're currently fighting
Pilots still train for air to air combat, we're not planning on doing that any time soon. Hell German pilots go against US pilots constantly in training, last I checked we're not invading Berlin any time soon.
We constantly train for mass causality situations involving NBC threats, we pray that doesn't happen.
Training is training. 12/6/2011 1:18:30 AM |

Zucotti Park and this "movement" made me LOL hard this weekend. Five fools beating drums and yelling at everyone walking by. I honestly felt bad because the way it's set up these protesters at the "birthplace" of OWS are treated like zoo animals.

It's interesting to see so many people that think OWS is a joke. They're the same people that blow an emotional gasket about a poor person getting extra food stamps or govt. assistance, but protect the criminals who crashed the economy and plundered our treasury of billions of taxpayer $$$

"If only the weather was better Id get out and better myself....or protest." Seems about right from this group. Just need an excuse to not do anything.
