25. Not the first time protesters were charged with terrorism.

Sat May 19, 2012, 05:51 PM

May 2012

Didn't they do this to nine protesters during the RNC convention about nine years ago? Trumped up charges then. But it took years out of the lives of those protesters.

Clearly none of this is going to stop people all over the world from protesting. People are now used to their lying, entrapment etc. All it does is make people more determined.

Two NYPD cops were caught lying under oath this week in two OWS cases. Will there be consequences for them? It's doubtful. We would need to be living in a democracy for that to happen.
