[The Velveteen Ocelot]

[Owlet]

4. The look like extras

[malaise]

5. If anyone expects corporate M$Greedia to cheer on protests

on Wall Street as if this were Egypt or Syria, dream on.

Notice that they're not covering the protests in Israel or Spain or Italy or Greece.
They are scared shitless.

[Mist]

6. Another version:

[otohara]

18. Michelin Tire Guys

dang, I bet that's one hot suit.

I thought we supported public workers?

[dixiegrrrrl]

20. after seeing the police macing women on the sidewalk in NYC yesterday

I reserve the right to support public workers who behave with civility.

[October]

22. I recommend your post, dixiegrrrrl

I am appalled by the police behavior in NYC.

[Warren Stupidity]

23. And I learned on DU that this is good because they were blocking traffic.

I watched the police use their stupid orange people corral to rope these women in, pen them to a small section of sidewalk, and then spray them with mace. And this shit is being defended as entirely appropriate right here on this board.

[Ikonoklast]

24. Same authoritarians that run to defend police action, no matter how brutal.

They would have been Tories at the time of the Revolution.

"So the King says I have to billet his soldiers in my home and feed them, that's OK with me, they're here for my protection!"

[dixiegrrrrl]

25. Not all who post on DU are on "our" side...

paid trolls are well known tactic.

[otohara]

26. Since There's No MSM Coverage

I had no idea about the macing of women, been busy the past few days.

My nephew was a cop in LA until a motorcycle accident took his one of his legs. Ever since he was a little kid he wanted to be a cop, to help people. After a few years on the job, he turned him into a right-wing, racist jerk.

Now after losing the leg, he's an anti-government, no longer right-wing jerk.

Shitty job, hopefully the films of these NYCPD's will be put on leave while there's an investigation

[Fire Walk With Me]

21. Too many police, not enough you and me

[Fire Walk With Me]

27. We've got your freedom right here.
