May 19 and 20, Chicago. Peaceful protesters engaging in their 1st Amendment rights.

Occupy Wall Street ‏@OccupyWallStNYC

Dear MSM: OWS does not "clash with the police" we are unarmed, peaceful protesters who are savagely attacked by the police. #MSM #noNATO


Never forget: Roid cops are a distraction to get Occupy to fight cops and not the 1%. Strategize. March on your favorite bank and hurt the 1% when their mad dogs hurt YOU.



The first few pics are what cops did to a peaceful, emotional Veteran's rally, where they renounced their medals and the infinite war machine and budget, the dishonorable use of soldiers to steal oil for the 1%, etc. Cops lined up several deep and made dispersal orders against an utterly peaceful 1st Amendment assembly, then beat and shoved those who resisted slowly out of the area, nearly causing some to be trampled. It's entirely upon the cops. At about 56:15 on the left, I believe that's the short-haired photographer seen below with a bleeding head wound; Freedom comments "you're bleeding"...so that's where he got it, for being peaceful. Cops even shoved the shit out of the pistashio-capped NLG Observers.

'NATO war machine responsible for global violence', blaming protesters is ridiculous:
