Are the regular NYPD being told that the protesters are being violent?!
"When we were exiting, she said that she didn’t like doing this, she had four kids and she didn’t think this was right. She agreed with our sentiment, but she didn’t understand why we had to be violent. I told her we were peaceful, and that I had been maced and arrested while walking on the sidewalk. She was silent. I looked at every officer who had let me through to use the bathroom and said thank you. They were silent."

4. They've been saying that since the War on Drugs was used to attack the Bill of Rights.
Then they started speaking louder once the Patriot Act was passed and then the law that granted telecom companies legal immunity for helping elements of the government engage in warrantless wiretapping.

10. There is a rumor on the web that several police officers refused to come to work today.
If so, I applaud them :applause:
