Excellent!

Zuccotti Park protester arrested after threatening to burn down city - NY Daily News

Quote:
Tinsley, of Harlem, was charged with making terroristic threats.

In October, Tinsley was arrested on Barkley St. for punching a cop in the face and kicking him on the ground during a protest. He was later released without bail.
What a nice guy.

Now, if he was actively plotting, lock him up. Vague threats should not be a detainable offense.

One loon out of several tens to thousands of protesters. But there will be more where he came from. Not because OWS is violent, but because their calls to end the fed and end the banking monopoly will draw and have drawn the hard-core anti-globalist, anti-G20 anarchist brigade.

One person surely is not responsible for ALL the violent behavior we have seen from OWS.
Most of your obsessive OWS threads, and there are many of them, involve one person.

They been wanting to get violent for a while.

All this energy could have been used Occupying a Job, or Occupying Careerbuilder looking for a job..

But then again, I'm not sure if these people are employable anyway.
Fail.

Maybe you could start Occupying Understanding of the People and the Movement.

The left really needs to stick to collectivism instead distancing these individuals who show them for what they are.

No, they broadcast their intentions decades ahead. This movement aims to be 1968 on steroids.

SDS
Weather Underground
The New Party
SEIU
Van Jones
Frances Fox-Piven
George Soros

They've all been broadcasting for decades what their intentions are. Only recently did most of us who disagree with the old Communists pay attention that they were trying to become born again by using this crop of Gen Y.

You clearly do not know what the Occupy movement is doing and what the other movements and people you've mentioned have done. Give it a rest.

Do you understand it? If the OWS doesn't want us to pick out a leader or representative of them on our own and focus on one of their messages as representative of the whole, then they need to do so. Choose a leader or two, choose and desseminate an official resolution or message. And stop breaking so many state laws, civic codes/ordinances, and stop hurting the quality of life of the people that live and work near your protests.
