Occupy Wall Street

I'm just glad to see that someone on the forum has total knowledge of everything going on in the world.

No, they don't -- it's part of the code under which they built the adjoining development. The city requires every developer to include a certain amount of green space, and it has to be completely open to the public 24/7.

It's like a situation here in Oregon: all the beaches were made public, except three stretches which were owned by NfP outfits. They own that beach, and they can set certain rules, but the public has to have access 24/7.

"certain rules" could include "no placards, no shouting, and no marching around in circles."
 
If the crowd gets idiotic, I hope the Toronto police do more than Vancouver's did during the Olympics.

And if some shit rat wants to get kicked in the teeth before he settles down, I think that's good policing to give the client what he wants.

I watching a live feed of NYC at that site.
Mods at the live chat reported that a couple of customers of citibank went into the bank, closed their accounts and left the bank. Police stopped them and took them back into the bank and arrested them. How's that for a police state.
 
Found out this morning there will be a protest in my town next Saturday. I'm going to be there!

It's spreading everywhere.
 
So, all you nay-sayers... protesters now being arrested for closing their bank accounts.

Still believe we live in a free society?

The Toronto protest might be interesting. As at the Toronto G-10 protest, I wonder how many cops will steal prosthetic legs this time?

I wonder how many coward cops will remove their badge numbers so they can beat people and kick them in the teeth with impunity, even with proof on video?

How many cops will kettle thousands in a single city block then jail them for not following orders to leave?

How many protesters will be jailed without charge for 13 hours or more without even pots to pee into in the cells, then laugh at them because they'd end up having to use the floor?

How many will ignore "detained" protesters needing insulin and other medications?

How many will quote a spurious "no trespassing" law, passed by the provincial government in secret, to herd them into overcrowded cells?

How many more will threaten to arrest protesters for blowing bubbles? Officer Bubbles even threated to sue YouTube when his assholery was exposed.

With cops acting like spoiled little tyrant bullies, I would have no sympathy at all if someone came along and killed every one of them.

He was not respectful, he was not civilized. He should be stripped of his badge and sent back to kindergarten.

Find us a citation where someone being brutalized by the police spoke up and said, "Excuse me, officer, but would you kick me in the teeth?"

Otherwise, this is just police-state loving bullshit.
 
It seems America does not like free speech very much - at least not when it's in the face of rich people and irresponsible companies.

Everywhere these OWS demonstrations pop up, local authorities have claimed all sorts of restrictions on what the OWS people are allowed to do.

In my own city, for example, they are not allowed to demonstrate overnight - only during daylight hours! :rotflmao:

I haven't believed we lived in a free society since Nixon.

Here's one to watch:

Every one of those cops arresting people for doing business at a bank should get thirty lashes and put in stocks in Times Square for three days.

it read like 2 people walked into a bank to close their accounts and twenty other people walked in along with them... they were on private property, asked to leave, and refused.

doesn't really sound like police state actions to me.

If you watch the videos, you'll see they were arresting customers.

Well then you read propaganda spinning. They were there to close their accounts, all of them. The "law" used to arrest them was a "bank run." (Even if that law was used properly, how is it even LEGAL?)

It can't be legal. Banks can put a limit on how much you can withdraw in a day, but not on how many people can do withdrawals.

And if moving your money involves a transaction, like a purchase, they can't even limit that.

If these people were drawing out amounts small enough to come under the daily limit, there's no bank run involved anyway.

According to the NY newspapers, they were arrested for trespassing after the manager of the bank asked them to leave and they refused. I'm not sure how I feel about the arrests but the group (numbers vary from 20 to 50) was clearly part of an organized event intended to cause a disruption at the bank. If they were intentionally causing a disruption of the bank's operation and were asked to leave then it doesn't matter if they are legitimate customers or not.

The only thing the videos show is people waiting in line to close their accounts. That's not a disruption.

Being a customer and being asked to leave shows one big reason every last American should dump banks and go to credit unions or a savings and loan: at those two, you''re not just a customer, you're a member, and you can't be asked to leave unless you're really out of line.
