     Of course there were cameras there…the person filming knows this man, and the event is clearly premeditated for the dual purposes of expression and making a video for the internet.

    I don’t know, maybe they’ll just edit that out of the video too.

    You’re right about the cops man.  but at what point do they examine their own behavior?  All the new york cops have to be in a frenzy right now.  How do you take orders to pacify people when common sense dictates that you will agree with them?  They haven’t shot anyone yet, and i don’t think they’re going to.  They back down from 1 marine.  Its proof of their meekness.  That dude who yelled aint a hero….don’t get me wrong.  Cops aren’t heroes either.

    Riight, so he can be dishonorably discharged and possibly prisoned for violating his contract? rather than risk his life and taking out a genocidal dictator? I don’t believe in the Iraq war one bit, or most of them for that matter and I’m far from a pacifist. Implying that the Iraq war was ALL bad though in my opinion, is ignorant.

    That’s a sentence I hate more than anything else to hear. It urks my nerve to no end, and makes me rage. ” Just doing their jobs” At what point does PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY come in to stand up for what’s right or wrong? Why follow orders when they’re unjust for a paycheck?

    It’s mini Stanford Experiment stuff. The thing about a uniform is that it conceptually separates you from those who aren’t in uniform. And once there’s an “Us vs. Them” mentality, often the only person who CAN breakthrough to the people in uniform, is someone else wearing a uniform. Weird, but true.

    It would hardly be the first time the NYPD has edited out “inconvenient” moments from videos of their police actions. They got MAJORLY busted for doing it at the 2004 Republican National Convention. 

    The only reason why they got busted, was because citizen journalists had video of their own, of the same sequence of events, and it clearly showed in court that police video had been edited. 

    This is why the cops are also arresting people for just videotapping them. They know such things can be used in court to prove how completely full of crap these bad cops are.

    Check the list of contributors on the last Ron Paul money bomb Wolf.  Most of them are in the military.  I am in the military and have been for over a decade.  I can promise you that as for the Marines we will die before we open fire on Americans.  I see your frustration, but we are all just as loyal as you to our founding ideals.  This man is common in our ranks, remember that we came from the same places as you and have loved ones there as well.

    Don’t see you out there facing off against the cops pat.  Just a reminder, taking advantage of peoples patriotism and lying to them to go to war is the fault of the government not the person who was convinced of a well crafted lie.  The military is waking up brother.

    Do you see any person get harmed in this video, do you see anything besides these people saying move along get off the road. How many people have been killed down on wall street, let me think um 0. They get arrested yes and sometimes its wrong to arrest these people just doing there basic rights in this country. You say this put you probably listen to what your boss says at work and do what your told in the chain of command. Now saying that you’ll probably say you work for yourself or your some revolutionary freedom fighter.
    Also many police offers that are getting in trouble for harming people down there are getting pay checks cut and many of their privileges taken away.

    Reading this site, I though the Military were all drones. According to the screaming Liberals on here at least.
