Last night few were watching as another round of police thuggery went down. Arrogant disregard for the welfare of those who are to benefit from the police civil service is unabated. Police are not military servants. They are stupid in pretending to be. It all worsens when Attorneys General and mainstream media turn away. People who worked in the Occupy Movement over the last three years know exactly how things go in the U.S. today.
Like the 21,000 citizens of Ferguson, the tens of thousands of Occupiers were also disregarded. And, like people in the Occupy movement, the citizens of Ferguson have not gone away but remain planning for action next weekend, October 10th through 13th.
As happened for countless Occupiers, the People on a public sidewalk last night were kettled and arrested for resisting arrest, failure to disperse and noise pollution. They were held 24 hours and then their releases were "negotiated", the newest term being used to replace prior language we used, such as "ransomed". Like any kidnappers, the Ferguson, MO police bully and gun-thug when it is late on a dark, windy, cold, rainy night in which the feeble mind of a nation wanders elsewhere from the plight of Fergusonians who in earlier time could have gone to Nuremberg & subsequent tribunals to say the elements of their persecution by war criminals masquerading as peace officers (video) have included arrest and confinement, beatings, mutilation, confiscation of property; plunder as a means of terror or related to other violence. It is all of a piece just as seen in the treatment of journalist Mary Moore in the preceding video at 00:01:41.
An after-action video document was published today by On the Ground with Rebelutionary_Z who was also present last night. It's three most recent videos (newest on top, oldest on the bottom) is a thorough telling of the tale.
Earlier in the day the ongoing St. Louis county grand jury process about the killing of Mr. Brown many weeks ago by some alleged man called Officer Wilson was derailed by a Wilson supporter who has since played the role of idiot proclaiming the so-called "Twitter defense" of being innocent of wrongdoing when someone somehow hacked her account. Many people say this is the soddit defense (some other dude did it) that was rolled out in the Garden of Eden when God asked Abraham, "Why did you do that?", to which came the reply, "b-but, but, Eve said I should." Later, confronted by God, Eve was reported in Daily Kos [must be true] to have told God, "Snake did it." Poor snake, brunt of the soddit defense. Had snake tweeted, snake would have claimed hackers took over the account.
Dkos diarist murphthesurf3 yesterday morning wrote about Ferguson Grand Jury Investigation: Leaks from the Jury Room?. NewsChannel 5, KSDK-tv in St. Louis, reported the video story at the same time murphthesurf3 wrote about it. Through the day tweets reverberated. Last evening KSDK-tv published a video interview story on Woman behind Ferguson grand jury tweet says she was hacked.
Jen Hayden on Tuesday, Sept. 30th, wrote Albuquerque police officer jokes about shooting James Boyd–kills him two hours later which has been read by hundreds of Kossaks. It tells more truth to support the notion that the police of the U.S. are uniformly insane. Were I wrong, we would all know it by the ringing outcries from police officers who, like Captain Ray Lewis 6 weeks ago on Aug. 29th claimed the cover-up is well installed.
FilmingInFerguson@BellaEiko was in Ferguson Tuesday night. Tonight she is in Oakland, CA for 1st Friday in Oakland filming the work of those police who were behaving much better than do the mid-western forces. Check out Bella's video of her mobile Copwatch observations and interviews of both the police and the men who were stopped. It's like a training film on what to do for a positive resolution of the problem(s) that DOJ should require all police thugs, such as those in Ferguson and those who beat the shit out of the Occupy Movement citizens, all those abusers should be required to watch and to practice doing.
