I had to leave the meetings early but I knew they were going to march tonight to protest police brutality. Now the cops are there with gas masks - again.

1. This is coordinated.

3. The message must have gone out across the country to suppress OWS with

the same tactics just about everyplace. This is a repeat of the 60's all over again. You have the right to assemble and peacefully protest until you do it, and then you'll get the shit kicked out of you. I imagine a lot of the younger ones are getting a good glimpse of how this place really operates.

5. and some of us not so young ones

I am an older Gen Xer and have NEVER seen this in my lifetime.

7. I saw in the 60's at school, was also tear gassed. Also the civil rights riots in

the 60's, watched DC burn.

6. Yep, but since this is global...

Tells me this is truly scaring elites. Personally I don't think that ginnie is going back anytime soon.

9. The true face of fascism in this country is showing itself IMO. n/t

10. This is happening world wide

12. Yep, the other side of globalism, we are all fighting back. Eventually the

enforcers will start asking themselves more and more why they are repressing people with the same concerns as they have. That, to me, is what the 1% are really afraid of, that their propaganda and control will fracture, and the enforcers will turn on them too. Then, all hell is going to break out.

8. I got a serious suggestion

Out of Ghandhi. Come across a pd line, shut up, sit down.

In other words present as zero threat. Cops have no clue what to do then.

Make sure that goes far and wide.

11. They've been sent out to scare OWS into disappearing. It won't. nt

14. Exactly. They're idiots calling attention to themselves by threatening protesters. nt
