pennywise it the clown pictures
The NYPD executed their famous “We’re a buncha pussies” tactical mojo on sleeping protesters in Zuccoti Park last night under the direction of Mayor Bloomberg.
You can see here how totally defiled the park was with herpes and poop once police evicted protesters and their belongings.
On behalf of protesters, the National Lawyers Guild got a little free speech and right to assemble love in the form of a court order first thing Tuesday morning.
Bloomberg is appealing the order before someone steals his billions.
Police went all Fahrenheit 451 (sans flames) destroying more than 5,000 books belonging to the Occupy Wall Street movement.
Freedumbz isn’t free, folks.
Update: Returning protesters offer flowers to NYPD.

I haven’t seen a lot of the video from the eviction yet, but the little I have seen, showed an AWFUL lot of force on the side of the police, and an AWFUL lot of compliance and good manners on the side of the Occupiers.
More will come out in the next few days, I’m sure. These folk KNOW how to trash your opponent via YouTube!
I’ve read several sources now saying these coast-to-coast crackdowns were coordinated with the FBI and DHS giving advice. ie. Do it at a time of day when the media and people aren’t watching. Really creepy. Like people opposing inequality are the enemy.
I started wondering about coordinated crackdowns several weeks ago, so thanks for the confirmation.
Bloomberg and the NYPD were in contempt of court all day before the judge ruled. Who arrested them?
i don’t understand the thinking behind the cops’ actions. do any of the mayors in the towns where protesters have been assaulted think the optics are making them look good? every time i see the cops charging toward unarmed people, i think of kent state, and i get chills wondering if that’s where all this is leading.
Good question. My wonderings are, if we had extreme goper control, would they use flame throwers and tanks? (they have used tanks before at Hooverville). Or will they go old school like Detroit in 1952 and have the cops murder a dozen people?
Hey, Tex.
I didn’t know that about tanks and Hooverville. I hope it doesn’t get that ugly.

I was reading last night that a couple of churches have volunteered shelter. While I think it’s appalling that “rules of the park” trumps right to peaceful assembly and free speech, maybe they could rotate shifts keeping the park occupied 24/7 but rotating groups out/in to go and sleep at the church.
I think it’s important they stay as gadflies at the center of the financial district.
they’ve been very inventive and resourceful so far, and i think they’ll continue to be. i think their inventiveness has earned some respect from people who wouldn’t ordinarily agree with them. the human microphone is genius.
The library was impressive, too. Plus, they were generating batteries with bicycle power.
When people say “there are no leaders” they don’t understand that the leadership is crowd-sourced via the webs.

What’s a police baton? A piece of wood. What else is wood? A tree. Where can you find trees? A park.
Getting beaten by a cop is just a walk in the park, my friends.
