"Anthony Bologna, the NYPD officer who maced a protester at the Occupy Wall Street rally, was named in several civil rights lawsuits related to arrests made at the 2004 Republican National Convention."
Charges against a guy Bologna arrested at 2004 protests of GOP convention were dropped.
It's a big department with big problems, but shouldn't they be screening and monitoring officers a bit more so people with the wrong temperament don't get to carry badges? Yeah, right; dream on attila..."Anthony Bologna, the NYPD officer who maced a protester at the Occupy Wall... more

Police can use deadly force at will. They can confiscate cameras and keep their own official videos away from public view. They can intimidate and harass writers. They can count on their departments to cover up for them. They know the "outside" investigators, mostly their colleagues and allies in the law enforcement community, will do the same for them. They can count on the media and the public to excuse them.
Yet some people blush at the term Police State. http://lewrockwell.com/greenhut/greenhut66.1.htmlPolice can use deadly force at will. They can confiscate cameras and keep their own... more

Because when you rob people of what little they have, in order to protect the interests of those who have more than anyone deserves, you should expect resistance—whether organized protests or spontaneous looting. And that’s not politics. It’s physics. http://www.thenation.com/article/162809/daylight-robbery-meet-nighttime-robberyBecause when you rob people of what little they have, in order to protect the... more

This mini-documentary film looks at the initial causes and wider context surrounding the recent England riots. Politicians refuse to acknowledge their role in creating a deeply unfair and failing society, a perfect storm of police brutality, city poverty and austerity measures, that will only get worse unless the root problem is addressed.
Did you know for the rioters to be on par with the looting by the financial bailouts, corporate tax avoiders and Libyan invasion, they would have to repeat the same level of damage……4,320 times? http://nwoobserver.wordpress.com/2011/08/16/perfect-storm-the-england-riots-documentary/This mini-documentary film looks at the initial causes and wider context surrounding... more

Ten years after 9/11 Afghanistan remains the center of a growing Islamic insurgency and the longest war in American history. The success of America’s seventy year old psychological warfare campaign, where the lie became the truth and the truth became the enemy of the state, has now so disorientated America’s institutional thinking that we have reached the moment when the state can no longer shield the American people from the consequences of that lie. http://nwoobserver.wordpress.com/2011/08/15/911-and-the-american-mind/Ten years after 9/11 Afghanistan remains the center of a growing Islamic insurgency... more

For those that are awake to the fact that the government was long ago taken over by elitist oligarchs, this question was answered years ago.
It is public knowledge that the military is planning to take on the American people by declaring martial law and taking part in widespread arrests/gun confiscations. These plans have already been activated multiple times including during Hurricane Katrina and the Seattle WHO riots. http://www.federaljack.com/?p=95387For those that are awake to the fact that the government was long ago taken over by... more

Not only are our tax dollars being squandered, the United States is facing isolation on the world stage thanks to its special relationship with Israel... We will also ask our government to keep that 30 billion dollars at home. Wouldn’t that money be better spent in American schools rather than Israel? http://september15.org/Not only are our tax dollars being squandered, the United States is facing isolation... more

The recent debt limit congressional circus must be a new Twilight Zone episode written by a computerized program straight out of central casting. Rod Serling must be turning in his grave. A twenty-first century rewrite of his exceptional Seven Days in May screenplay is certainly in order, this time with a different ending. If there are any confused or co-opted worshipers of the federal government left, what more proof do you need that the bipartisan political criminal class is determined to destroy this nation? Not convinced that this assessment is correct; then you need remediable instruction in arithmetic. Increasing the spending with more borrowed money cannot reduce the debt. http://batr.org/autonomy/080711.htmlThe recent debt limit congressional circus must be a new Twilight Zone episode written... more
