That video of @OccupyBoston American veterans having their flags ripped down must go viral (and go network with better lighting)

7. when new videos come on, they take a while to update, tomorrow it will probably update to 2000+

That pull down of the Veteran by the cop at 2 minutes from behind and yanked back 8 feet is BS!


And NO MATTER what they say about them being a nuisance and out in the dark, the fact is there is CIVIL UNREST because people are without hope, penniless, in massive debt, homeless, hungry, and they are using their FREEDOM of SPEECH, so no argument used against them is worth a lick, there is widespread thievery going on in this country by the ruling class, and the people are getting restless as these past few weeks have shown.



The POTUS needs to do something positive regarding this. He will not win if he doesn't, the people want a leader. I want a leader. I want him to win and not lose to some fascist like Perry or Bachmann.

8. These police officers appear to have a serious case of

penis envy. All those young'uns, sleeping together in the park. Can't have that, can we?

Of course, the amount of sex going on is in fact probably pretty minimal given the time of year and the risk of exposure to the cold, but the police can dream, can't they?

9. Absolutely disgusting! n/t

10. shame. nt

11. They just threw the flag to the sidewalk.....WTF.

[defendandprotect]

16. Only the RW are entitled to wave the flag -- or the Bible -- !!!

Remember when they also took flags away from African Americans in Civil Rights

protests?


History repeats -- and the tools, actions, patterns followed by elites are usually

the same -- and usually violent.

[marions ghost]

13. unbelievable

police provoking them so they can get on with the job of removing them.

:grr:

[blackspade]

15. Nice of the BPD to step on the US flag.

Way to treat our veterans!
It just goes to show you, that even veterans are to shut up when their message differs from the oligarchy.

[defendandprotect]

17. They're frightened about how large these things could get ---

i.e., limit the space to OCCUPY!!

[workinclasszero]

18. I'm sooo damn glad we are living in the land of the free and home of the

brave, eh?? Veterans of war and young kids smashed into the pavement because they dared to stand up to Fox news, Murdoch, rush limbaugh, Beck, etc and the wall street mafia that is destroying this country!

God help us, this is gonna get real ugly I'm afraid. Now I want to hear all the capitalist apologists explain how this nazi action is actually a good thing!!:nuke:

[Dont call me Shirley]

19. Boston cops, YOU ARE THE 99 % and you always will be.

You took an oath to protect and serve the people, that's ALL of the people, not only the 1%. Why do you continue to protect the criminals who have destroyed your and our democracy? Why do you continue to serve only the abusive 1%? SHAME, SHAME, SHAME ON YOU for your belligerent, violent behavior against innocent citizens practicing our constitutional right to peaceful assembly.
