Police are becoming more and more brazen

[bobbyjay]

I believe in non-violent protests and peaceful assemblies, but more and more it is becoming impossible to disagree or voice your disgust with the governments of this world without being beaten, arrested, and labeled an extremist. The people need protection, protection from their own police force, and if the politicians cannot provide it, then We The People will...

I am recommending a forming of a protest guard, a guard that would be trained in peaceful protest, in non-violent compliance, a protest guard that would have it's own uniforms, it's own protective gear. A protest guard that would be willing to stand up between groups of protesters and riot police.

The purpose of this guard would be to provide our own thin line between the protesters and police barriers. It's not so easy to punch a person if he has a helmet and shield, let them find out how organized We The People really are. No weapons, No fighting back, No violence. ONLY a barrier between protesters and cops, the same way they make barriers.

Our young people need protection, and if the police will not, can not, and are not going to give it, I say that We The People must.

For now they terrorize us, soon they shall know terror, for we are organized, we are many, We are The People.

These people would have to be very brave and be willing to be beaten into a bloody pulp.

There are few things for which a man will say he is willing to kill.

Fewer still are things for which a man is willing to die.


I urge everyone to view the Frontline expose on the Revolution in Cairo, the Islamic Brotherhood (no matter how they are viewed in the west) protected their people, and they won.

This is not Egypt, this is the USA, the Constitution begins "We The People.."

They are human beings. We are human beings. We should have the same rights and liberties and they should be held accountable for their actions the same as we are.

There are two tools now that should help hold people accountable, video cameras on peoples phones and the ability to immediately post it on the internet.

An Aikido squad or Wu Shu Kung Fu trained. They couldn't be hit by the goonsquad. I have enjoyed the few videos where some brutal concentration camp type nazi cop gets his come-uppance from a crowd member defending the bogus arrest.

This was my main concern with the protests in NY.
The organizers have stressed a peaceful protest.
There are those among them that are working to diffuse violence and watch for provocateurs.

The police as usual are provoking violence.
My concern is, how many people show up to protest and how violent the police will become.
It has a potential to get nasty.
