Bounty for police officer who shot Iraq Vet Scott Olsen

It is hard playing fair when the other guy's don't want too, but when you realize what they want to accomplish , RIOTS, riots for justification to sweep this protest off the streets and out of the news using a iron fist.
I watched the Greek riots on line and thought,,,,if only they had weapons to fight back with instead of rocks ....but where would that actually lead ?
My heart says....fight back with violence , logic says don't! We will win nothing with violence.

the force was excessive and they know it. Reward increased to $2200

Yeah, people are acting like he's offering the reward dead or alive. He just wants the name so people can shame this guy individually.

All that pretty body armor obviously isn't necissary to take on an unarmed peaceful crowd. The only reason for it is anonnimity, and I don't think public servants should have that.

Furthermore, how would anyone be able to verify whatever name you receive?

This is playing straight into the hands of the propaganda machine (aka MSM). I really doubt the marine who was injured would condone any of this. Good cops basically just want to keep their jobs. Bad cops, can't be reasoned with, much less held accountable for orders that probably came down from the mayor's office.

I suggest the fact he was so brutally injured and is laying in a coma... has already sparked thousands more to join the cause. That's what's important. That's what he was standing up for. Let's rise above the hate and stay focused.

While I support the intent here, I suggest you consider using different terminology here. Bounty has too much baggage associated with it.

Nice, it might really make these guys think twice if they can be individually ousted for unnecessary and excessive violence.

What the hell is the matter with you people who don't want this cop's name known. You want to perpetuate this sort of violence and irresponsibility by a few bad cops? Whoever did this should pay a serious price...perhaps loss of his/her badge for starters...this sort of bullshit has to stop...and it doesn't matter if it is a marine or not!!! If this person gets away with this...then shame on all of us who sit on our fat asses in front of monitors acting as if we had a freakin' clue.

This isn't a bounty for the cop's death. It is just for his name so he can be exposed. Knowing Tony Balogna's name didn't hurt our movement, it helped it. Some of the commenters here are overreacting to the sensationalized headline.

Not a good idea the police have been going to far I know the guy got shot but people have been tasered, pepper sprayed, and beat down. By doing something about this you will hurt the movement.

terrible idea.. we are NOT the enemy of the police. they are the 99% just because there are a few psychopaths wearing blue, does not justify this type of behavior, nor do any occupation movements i am affiliated with support it.

I'm angry too, but this kind of stuff can destroy the movement.

I LIKE this idea. That cop really crossed the line here and he is in deep shit.

the amount has since been increased to $1500

I know of some crack-heads would do all kinds of shit for that much money....

Good idea.
