New York Police Intentionally Runs Over Occupy Wall Street Protester – Video

If this isn’t criminal, I don’t know what is.

The New York Police Department has come to a new low, and that is something we thought was almost impossible for this police department to do.

In even more evidence that the rights of American citizens to organize and protest are being trampled on, the video below shows a New York police officer riding his bike over the leg of a man. The officer then parks his bike on the screaming man’s leg, then tried to fend off other protesters trying to help the man.

Later reports confirmed the man’s leg was broken because of the incident.

This ladies and gentlemen, is the police’s definition of “protect and serve!”

Occupy Wall Street – Why They Protest. Video

I’m sure by now you’ve heard the criticism by those in the media that Occupy Wall Street have no leader, no point, no focus. The critics all seem to agree that Occupy Wall Street protesters and all the other occupiers nationwide, will be better served if they had one specific goal.

Well the Occupiers heard these unwarranted suggestions from the media, and decided to answer. No, the movement is not about one main goal, it is about the 99% of Americans, and the many injustices we all face.

Police Arrest 100 Protesters At “Occupy Boston”

Report from The Boston Globe

At 1:20 a.m., the first riot police officers lined up on Atlantic Avenue. Minutes later, dozens of sheriff vans and police wagons arrived and over 200 officers in uniforms and riot gear surrounded the Greenway.

Police Superintendent William Evans and Commissioner Edward F. Davis watched from across the street. Evans gave the crowd two minutes to disperse from the park, warning that they would be locked up if they did not comply.

The crowd of protesters, energized by the sudden appearance of the Boston and Transit police officers, chanted, ‘‘The people united will never be defeated,’’ “This is a peaceful protest,” and “the whole world is watching.’’

About 10 minutes later, the first officers entered the park and surrounded the group. Evans, using a loudspeaker, gave one more warning and then each protester was individually put on his or her stomach, cable-tied, and dragged off as others tore down tents and arrested and detained people on the fringe of the park.

About 100 people were arrested, Davis said. One police officer was hit in the face.

Russell Simmons And Kanye West Join Occupy Wall Street Protesters

Two multi-million dollar moguls made their way to Wall Street today, not to check on any stocks or investments, but to join in solidarity with the protest movement known as Occupy Wall Street. Russell Simmons and Kanye West walked with middle class Americans also known as the bottom 99%.

In an interview with GlobalGrind. Russell Simmons said;

“It was amazing to see how people loved seeing Kanye West at Occupy Wall Street. His music and his art has always been about the voice and the power of the people. Kanye just wanted to come down and experience the growing movement that has opened the eyes of many around this country and around the world of the struggles of poor people. The energy at Liberty Plaza was electrifying and the momentum to get the money out of politics is growing quickly.”
