If you watch the video, this COP came from a distance sprayed her and walked away as if nothing happens. This tells me that first, he wasn't even close to hearing this lunatic yell or scream about anything and second, he had the INTENT to hurt someone and simply just walked away of the cameras, as if saying "Hopefully no one saw that".

To me that little tidbit there sums up the problem. This COP/Coward/whatever you want to call him KNEW he was doing something that was WRONG and illegal. He came up, did the act, then ran away into the crowd HOPING nobody would be 'illegally' taping him. That is the basis for why they want cameras OUT of your hands as bad as they want GUNS out of your hands. With either of these items you no longer become just some slob/hippie/average Joe/Idiot troll on a discussion board, you now become dangerous to them and the way they abuse their power.
I stand by the protesters reasons for being there. I stand by ANYONE having an opinion that doesn't follow the old regime. Things have to change. The ONLY reason we don't have VIOLENCE yet is that it has not gotten to that and people are trying to change the USA peacefully. Honestly do ANY of you actually think things are going to change PEACEFULLY??? There is about a 1% chance of that ever happening. I would LOVE for the world to change peacefully!!! It just doesn't work that way. If it did we wouldn't be in everyones backyard cramming our thoughts/rules/ideas down their throats. OUR country wouldn't be involved in every freaking CONFLICT in the world. We either have our own military there or we are selling them the weapons to carry out the VIOLENCE.
A time is coming to the USA where violence will have to erupt, and it's coming faster than most of us think. The military has gotten too big, the government has gotten too big, and the fat cats in the major corporations and on Wall St. have gotten too big.
Eventually you will either be pulling the trigger or staring at the end of the barrel. It has to happen for the USA to change. It's a SAD fact and I don't want it to be violent. I don't want to live in a country where everyday I have to worry if my son will get shot walking to school, or have a car bomb explode while he is on a field trip to Washington D.C. but I damn sure will explain to him why these things are taking place all around him. It's mainly because of dumb-ed down, lazy, weak willed people that are too afraid to stand up for what's RIGHT!
Flame me if you want....troll me if that's how you make yourself feel better....but eventually you will see the truth...

I support the posting of the names and addresses of cops accused of wrong-doing, as well as the names of their families. What's good for the goose is good for the gander, and police have no problems targeting the families of people they go after.
What gets me is that people still think peaceful protest is going to do anything. If they are going to protest, they should show up as well armed as the police. Motorcycle helmets, gas masks, baseball bats, and guns; then if the police want to go from a peaceful protest to a violent protest, respond in kind. "80 Protesters Arrested" may not make much of a blip on CNN, but "80 Police Officers Hospitalized" would get airtime.

So a bunch of bored young women fresh out of community college and politics 101 put on some stupid outfits and go down to protest the big banks that their daddies work for. They aren't getting enough attention so they spill out of the place where they are supposed to be, and then get maced. Boo freaking hoo. Daddy will probably give them a couple extra thousand this month to make up for it.
There is a reason police have to keep protesters in a designated area. It's to keep all those people who actually have jobs to go to from getting beat/stomped etc. If you can't follow the simple rules and get a little boo boo don't cry to me about it.
Pretend this was happening outside of your place of work and then tell me you wouldn't want the police keeping protesters from turning violent and destroying property. You guys are so ready to be 'anti establishment' that you lose common sense. Seriously you let these protesters go and do whatever they please you're going to end up with a ton of people getting hurt and property destruction.
I had to watch that again. Makes me laugh uncontrollably. The one screaming like she's MELTIIIIIIIINNNGGGGGGG! I've been maced a few times (most were unintentional; me in the wrong spot) and while it hurts its not NEARLY as bad as that girl makes it out to be.edit on 26-9-2011 by Domo1 because: (no reason given)
While I am completely against your stupid assessment I totally agree with the screaming Melting part. That chick can shut up any day now.
I highly doubt you've been maced, 'cept if you were to tell me that you were trying to rape someone.
I would believe that.edit on 9/26/2011 by mudbeed because: (no reason given)
