Occupy Broadway 12/2/11

30 Journalists Arrested Covering Occupy Movement



Hey Mayor Bloomberg, I think Your confused!!!!

You do not have "the 7th largest Army" aka the NYPD.

Kamran Loghman, the creator of Pepper Spray, is shocked that you are using it on peaceful protesters.

You can not declare a "non First Amendment Zone" on the street where you live.

You can not limit protesters to a “free-speech/frozen zone” marked by police barricades and keep them against their wishes.

Since becoming Mayor in 2001 your personal fortune has increased from $4 Billion to $17 Billion. I think that is called stealing.

AND,  BTW....Thank-you for occupying Liberty/Zuccotti with NYPD. Since that base is covered other occupiers can cover other bases and the NYPD doesn't even know they are occupying.


Free Press delivered a petition with more than 40,000 signatures to you Mayor Michael Bloomberg as well as Los Angeles Mayor Antonio R. Villaraigosa, president of the United States Conference of Mayors. The petition calls on US mayors to protect First Amendment rights and  to protect journalists covering the Occupy movement.

Time for both of you to resign.

"They're Holding Us Hostage!" Obama fundraiser NYC


UPDATE: As the New York ObserverCapital New York, and Gothamist have pointed out, the NYPD's refusal to allow me into the "frozen zone" where OWS protesters were held last night comes just days after Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly sent a memo to officers reminding them not to interfere with meda access during news coverage.
Outside a Manhattan fundraiser attended by President Barack Obama last night, the New York City Police Department deployed a new and legally questionable tactic against Occupy Wall Street demonstrators and the press. Starting at around 9:00 p.m., police barricaded a group of about 50 protesters into a small area on 7th Avenue and 53rd Street. These kinds of designated "free speech zones" have become routine at protests of high-level political events. But here's the twist: Protesters in the NYPD's free speech zone were trapped there. Not only could nobody enter after a certain point, but for about an hour and a half, nobody could leave.


So much talk talk talk................Obama on freedom:

NYPD - "The Seventh Largest 'Army' in the World"

Bloomberg: "I have my own army with the NYPD and my own State Department in New York City."

"I don't listen to Washington very much, which is something they're not thrilled about."

"Obama has influence but YOUR Senator and Representatives have A LOT more power so stop complaining and write/call YOUR congress. Be AWARE of the bills they're voting on, that's what Kucinich is talking about in this video. The message is you need to participate in our Republic or it will fail worse and faster."
