You can be running away and still shooting back words....
Just take your finger, walk forward, take your finger, turn your waste (still walking forward, yes it can be done) then when yo do that little exercise, you tell me if it is possible to be shot in the back while walking away...
So now he shot at the cops??
Damn, are you just making things up?
And didn't I tell you not to talk to me until you provide a link where a witness said Kimani pointed a gun at an officer.
Way to deflect 3 times without answering a single thing.
See now your being honest. You WANT the police to bust protesters heads.
At least your being honest.
We'll see how many heads they bust if protesters show up armed like the Tea Party corporation.
I thought this was about the criminals in Occupy.
Why not stick to the subject of the thread instead of trying to change the parameters like in the preceding posts?
Occupy is nothing but a bunch of losers wanting more government controls and more freebies. When they are challenged, they turn violent,.......AND GET THE TREATMENT THEY DESERVE!!!
Occupuke reminds me of a whiny little child who just has to get their way. And they will always bend a story in their favor, even when they are in the wrong. Personally, the police should have simply unleashed the fire hoses on these losers. I'm not usually in favor of more government handouts, but they looked like they could have used a good bath anyways. For the most part, the police gave them their time in the sun, and space to vent their frustrations. Those dopes don't know the first thing about police brutality. If the police really put the hammer on them, they would have dissipated in a hurry.
Get over it. Your movement was an embarrassment. Is the country screwed up? Yup. Do I want these halfwits representing me and my interests? Hell no! I much prefer they keep their uselessness to themselves.
I think he's having a hard time adjusting to the fact that the country has moved on. No more doobs being passed out openly in the streets as misguided misfits curse capitalism. Welcome to life. Some of us contribute to society, work hard, play by the rules and earn our keep. Others make more effort complaining about this system, which doesn't provide an equal reward for sloth, dependency, and general worthlessness. Capitalism doesn't punish those who make an effort, and it doesn't reward those who raise their voices and hold out their hands for their "fair share". So unfair, right?
I wish he would quit reminding us of this awful movement which does nothing but shine a light on the glaring entitlement attitude many harbor in this nation.

Occupy is like a pack of dogs sitting outside the fence yapping and howling. They yap and howl, but adamantly refuse to engage in trying to solve the perceived problems. Apparently Occupy believes it is beneath them "intellectually" to get involved,...other than yapping and howling about how bad the "system" has become.
Maybe a little "head knockin'" might clear their thinking.
I'm starting this thread to bring awareness to an issue that has been swept under the rug as of late. Police brutality and corruption. During the protest, hundreds of Americans were beaten, harassed, and falsely charged by our police departments.
There were hundreds of incidents caught on tape that never were investigated. Whether you support the protest or not, the issue of police brutality in this country is one that needs to be addressed.
Intimidation and violence are not ways to combat peaceful protest.
Opinions?
I'm sure there were some cops who got too high on themselves and whacked a few people unjustly.
And I'm sure there were some protesters who vandalized other people's property, set stuff on fire, and generally acted like dicks.
Both deserve some brutality.
