1. They can arrest people but they can't arrest everyone.
Let them fill up the jails. Let the court houses be backed up. Let them spend their budgets on suppressing us, 'till there's no money left for themselves. they will be overwhelmed in the end.

5. the local RW radio blowhards were probably egging it on, like for every OWS, and will excuse the cop
action for days and weeks and cheer on every other one.

the fact that the left has no organized reaction to the giant community megaphones used to pressure local authorities, attack protestors, and then cheer on police brutality is going to make any real reform much harder and slower.
