It disgusts me to read her quotes to the press.
It disgusts me to see how the mainstream media has failed to continue to cover that event.
And it disgusts me that there has been no coverage yet linking the nationwide police brutality against the protesters to today’s decision to pass NDAA (and President Obama’s failure to veto that bill) - allowing indefinite military detention of US citizens, without trial or charges or even access to an attorney.
The escalating violence - and increasingly twisted use of “public safety” and “public health” as a pretext to justify the forcible dispersement of the #occupy encampments - seems like a very public message meant to strike fear into those who would consider joining the movement. Now, President Obama has raised the stakes by signing a bill that legalizes the detention and maltreatment of Bradley Manning, and essentially threatens U.S. citizens with similar treatment.
This is what a police state looks like.
