ALBANY — Police are taking steps to protect an Albany police officer whose family has received threats after he was publicly identified for using pepper spray to quell Occupy Albany protesters last week.
A "wanted" poster seeking information including the home address, telephone numbers and "map to home" of Officer Richard Gorleski was posted Wednesday on a Facebook page used by Occupy Albany.

The only difference between the Tea Tards and the Occupy Wall Street crowd is that the OWS crowd by far appeals to more normal Americans far more than the Koch Brother funded Tea Tards ever will!

Every civilian protest, every one, all over the World, is smeared and slurred as being a "threat to security". As being criminal in nature.

These right wingers on this thread are no different. Taking isolated incidents and smearing all of OWS with it.

The scam they pull is NEVER DONE ANY OTHER WAY.

In Zimbabwe, Mugabe supporters lie about the scale of the "violent" protestors. In Russia, Putin supporters lie about the "criminal" protestors, in Egypt and Syria the authoritarians blame the criminal protestors. The British and their supporters smeared the American protestors in the 1700's.......on and on and on.

Why the hell should they not? Every change the left has...they posted here saying look, look, look....what the tea party did....

Sorry, but if you can show me and everyone else where 17 Tea Party people were arrested in ONE day..then maybe I'll start to believe you....

That's the very essence of right wing "authoritarians".

They drop all their "fake" principles at the drop of a hat depending on whether it helps their side or not.

Their only loyalty lies with their tribe.

Right wingers hate "government" itself, so therefore the Tea Party is OK with them. OWS is a against crony capitalists who control our government. This can't be tolerated.

So they smear OWS.
