So it is ok with you for me to go to your house and abuse you, rob you, and destroy your things? In Dallas, and Oakland they DO have an organized set of leader to handle the donations of things. This was who was asked. Next time they get violent I would bet the police will be much more aggressive too. This is getting…

I can understand that. But in this case, OWS was never a formally organized rally. How do all the laws about "obtaining proper permits" and the like address those? It certainly cannot be a blanket coverage law where ALL protests MUST be well-organized, with all the proper stamps obtained beforehand. - Uh, yea it is a…

For starters, the First Amendment is perfectly clear that you have a right to speak freely, and to "peaceably assemble." This does not mean ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, and at ANY COST. But those rights are hardly absolute, and courts have long allowed for neutral "time, place, and manner" regulations, which means that the…

We dont know exactly what he saw to have him throw that flash bang. He could have thought he was justified. I dont have a problem with the use of less then lethal tactics - if the police officer had been killed during this people like you would have still sided with the mob... Sad

And in your view it is never ok to defend yourself? Ok. Look how well that works throughout history...

So it is ok to break the law if it gets your cause the press it needs? I dont think so. We were talking and laughing with the police, as our leaders took turns talking to the crowd explaining our views and what we wanted to do about it. We were respectful, and got our message out. Your comment "All is fair in love and…

First the United States constitution explicitly provides for 'the right of the people PEACEABLY to assemble". There is a public ordnance in MANY cities requiring permits for protests, and for occupying areas overnight. This group was asked 2 days ago to get the proper permits so they could allocate a dedicated police…

What you do NOT see is the police officer with the bullhorn asking the group to disperse for the 5th time in 3 hours. They were told that they could RECONVENE in the morning. The said please go and file for the permit to CAMP overnight on the public grounds, and if they did not FILE they would have to leave each night…

EXACTLY, and it wasnt as if this incident in Oakland wasn't preventable. Why can't we focus on how to fix this nation and attempt to bring back morals and values. While I don't agree with a fair amount of what these people are protesting, I do agree they have the right to do so as long as it is a LAWFUL grouping.…

And this type of rhetoric helps how? How about we focus on the problems and how to fix them? All this is, is more of a TROLL type post made to incite people. Why can't we focus on how to fix this nation and attempt to bring back morals and values. While I don't agree with a fair amount of what these people are…

EYE see what you did there

New movies? There have only been THREE star wars films, and no one is going to convince me otherwise! AND LUCAS STOP FUCKING WITH THE MOVIES I GREW UP LOVING thank you.

So a Titan AE style show?

My mother worked THREE jobs in LA to afford to clothe, feed and put a roof over my head in a shitty neighborhood where I had to worry about being shot, stabbed, or just robbed daily. Guess what my ass did? I got a job, got an education and got the hell out of the ghetto. I busted my ass, joined the Navy when jobs got…

Yup

First he would make sure they had the correct permits MAKING it legal... Currently it is not a legal thing... Bruce likes to do it right lol

That would be "Sinking" Chinese Restaurant...

Ok in my area movie tickets are 15.50-17.50 a ticket depending on if it is 3D or not. I have a family of 4 so 15.5*4=$62 BEFORE concessions. I still say offer the movie for a special price and get a mail in rebate to get the blu-ray free or at massive reduced cost. Then I may justify going again...

+1 for setting that picture in my mind

depends on the pulse strength when I was in the Navy we had a CIC that was "hardened" during construction we noticed it had a faraday cage built it and it wasnt that impressive looking but was supposed to survive an emp from a "typical" attack... I imagine if you have a tiny cage it wouldnt protect much, but a more…
