Think about it, Baltimore has a black Mayor and 3 of the officers who acted so horribly were black.

Not taking anything away from the racial aspect of police brutality because it is the FIRST and foremost issue, and ultimately as the one percent becomes more and more isolated from the rest of us, the force of police will be more and more across the board.

Occupy was not white or black, and the disrespect shown by the individuals going to their fancy offices, walking past Occupy, was an overwhelming site and sound (Conan interviewed them with Triumph The Insult Dog) of arrogance and greed.

It should drive us ALL into the streets to literally take Wall Street over, but it hasnt.
