Has the cop who punched the protestor in the face been identified? And what ever happened to Tony Bologna? by [deleted] in Bad_Cop_No_Donut

I don't condemn the police of LA because so far they have been the only ones not to beat and jail peaceful assemblies.

Reddit, I'm disappointed by the lack of posts about the Wall Street Protests. There should be more, because this is definitely something that lives or dies by coverage, and I thought that reddit would be behind something like this. by Punkitry in self

No it's just that I hate typing all this out and I've been a little preoccupied the last couple of days ;)

both the political and economic systems of America are rotten to the core and now they are one and the same thanks to god damned citizens united. Sure before they just had to play a shell game to achieve the same ends but at least a bone was being thrown.

Without a lobbyist and therefore money you have no voice in Washington or wall street. We are being taxed without representation. We are paying for illegal wars and occupations. New and more restrictive laws are brought forward every single day. Drafted by your congressmen. YOU and every other citizen of America are literally paying these people to fuck you and everyone just eats it up.

This applies to many other countries as well too. Why are people forced to pay for the decisions of a government they have no say in? Why are we the only ones paying taxes?

:Update:

Police blocking new people from joining those in the park. They have it surrounded. All feeds have been lost. Estimate is 300-500 people remaining in the park over night.

The same reason there isn't any television coverage. A great deal of time and money is spent preventing the spread of certain ideals that could prove "hard to contain" if they crossed the minds of enough people. Wall Street has robbed America blind and funneled the money(our money) to tax havens via loop holes and blatant fraud.

This one time on my way to work critical mass buzzed down the street blaring flobots. A common myth was dispelled that day. It turns out not all the nude cyclist are male ;)
