90. Do you really want some stats on rapes by cops?

Or on people incarcerated for years because of lying cops? See just last week re the first OWS case to make it to court, and then the second one. Cops commit perjury on the stand, willing to help disappear protesters to one of our 'humane' prisons'. The only reason they failed was because of citizen journalists who had video showing they were lying, that they made false arrests and the cases were dismissed.

The cops wanted it made illegal to photograph them. They lost that battle last week, FOR NOW.

I guess you want to wait until it has gone so far it will be too late to do anything about it. For many Muslims of course, that already happened, you can't bring people back from the dead. You can't undo the devastating effects of torture or years of detention for no reason other you are of a certain ethnicity. But hey, they are not US. Of course throughout history whenever a government has its willingness to treat 'other people' so brutally and so unfairly, eventually it comes to their home countries. And the targets of that same mindset will always be the dissenters.

The very fact that we are not quite there yet, as far as Americans are concerned, even with the signs we already see, is BECAUSE OF THE PROTESTERS, and the courageous patriotic attorneys like the NLG, and the attorneys who got the NDAA altered to PREVENT what you say has not happened yet.

It was about to happen, but Americans, thank God, are fighting hard against what has succeeded in other countries, not so long ago. THAT is why you can say you just said, NOT because they are not trying to control the people, because of brave people who refuse to allow it.

Thank a protester today, for making it possible for you make the statements you just made. Because without them, you would be like so many other people asking yourself 'how did this happen to my country'. Thankfully others are doing the job for you of preventing it. Prevention is always better than cure.
