Lancaster Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 The Occupy movement with having to set up "rape-free zones", lots of violence, drug use and all other indecent behaviour... it's the Tea Party that somehow gets a bad rap for just wanting lesser taxes and less government, lol.

taxi Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Even if the movement was benign, having the FBI investigating was the right thing to do. I believe one concern was the connection of the anarchists within the Occupy movement. The fact is the government investigates a lot of different movements, and we need to be thankful they do. It has helped them prevent things from happening, and most of all it has helped prevent the 99% of the Occupy Movement from becoming patsies for the 1 or 2 people that really wanted something more.

Wetcoaster Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 It seems the FBI may be onto something. Headline in the New York Post today: Greenwich Village couple busted with cache of weapons, bombmaking explosives: sources The privileged daughter of a prominent city doctor, and her boyfriend — a Harvard grad and Occupy Wall Street activist — have been busted for allegedly having a cache of weapons and a bombmaking explosive in their Greenwich Village apartment. Morgan Gliedman — who is nine-months pregnant — and her baby daddy, Aaron Greene, 31, also had instructions on making bombs, including a stack of papers with a cover sheet titled, “The Terrorist Encyclopedia,’’ sources told The Post yesterday. People who know Greene say his political views are “extreme,” the sources said. Cops found the stash in the couple’s West Ninth Street home Saturday when they went there to look for Gliedman, 27, who was wanted for alleged credit-card theft. A detective discovered a plastic container with seven grams of a white chemical powder called HMTD, which is so powerful, cops evacuated several nearby buildings. Police also found a flare launcher, which is a commercial replica of a grenade launcher; a modified 12 gauge Mossberg 500 shotgun; ammo; and nine high-capacity rifle magazines, the sources said. Cops also allegedly uncovered papers about creating homemade booby traps, improvised submachine guns, and various handwritten notebooks containing chemical formulas. The couple’s arrest Saturday was a sharp turn from their privileged backgrounds. Gliedman, who grew up on Park Avenue, graduated from Dalton in 2002. Her dad, Dr. Paul Gliedman, is director of radiation oncology at Beth Israel Hospital, Brooklyn Division. Paul Gliedman — who was included in New York magazine’s list of top doctors in 2011 — received his medical degree from Columbia University. Morgan’s mother, Susyn Schops Gliedman, is a realtor with Prudential Douglas Elliman. Greene attended Harvard as an undergraduate and did his graduate work at the university’s Kennedy School of Government. He has five prior run-ins with the police, with the charges including, assault, and weapons possession, sources said. http://www.nypost.co...P02SDZyfC1pLVXN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buggernut Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 This. The government has a duty to protect its citizens. If there had been an attack of some kind and the government hadn't properly investigated, the same people complaining now would be the same people accussing the US government of false flag operations.

dudeone Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 Occupy Steubenville: Anonymous vs. the Sherriff By Connor Simpson | The Atlantic Wire – 3 hrs ago http://news.yahoo.com/occupy-steubenville-anonymous-vs-sherriff-202911554.html The sheriff investigating the alleged rape in Steubenville, Ohio, has not made friends with Anonymous after the hacking collective's document dump this week accused him of being close wit Steubenville High's football coach, deleting video evidence, and running "the largest illegal gambling operation in Jefferson County." So it was strange to see the sheriff on stage at the Occupy Steubenville rally Saturday afternoon. Jefferson County Sheriff Fred Abdalla has been targeted as the symbol of the corrupt nature surrounding the city and its relationship with the Big Red football program, ever since rape charges against two members of the team became national news again on Wednesday. Whether because of the increased attention or not, the investigation has deepened already — CNN reports the FBI offered "some technical assistance" to state authorities in charge of the case. On Friday evening, Abdalla was declaring war against Anonymous. He had previously expressed his concerns about the information being distributed by the hacking group — the names of the accused, who are being charged as minors; the teammate whose video went viral and now may be in trouble with Ohio State University — but not to this level. Abdalla told WTRF in a new interview that he was "coming after" Anonymous. The hacking group wasn't threatened by the small town sheriff, though: Inside the Anonymous Hacking File on the Steubenville 'Rape Crew' Still, some time between Friday night and Saturday afternoon, Abdalla had a change of heart. In the middle of the Anonymous-organized Occupy Steubenville gathering Saturday afternoon — many rape victims spoke to the crowd of more than 1,300 rallyers, with many more watching on UStream — Abdalla showed up and took the stage: The crowd didn't receive him that well. Abdalla stuck around for a few minutes after this video ends, and was largely met with boos from the crowd. But it's pretty amazing that he showed up at all, considering what he said the night before. Unfortunately, the video above doesn't contain the best part of Abdalla's appearance. The Anonymous member MC'ing the event — the one standing next to him in the picture above — actually got a chance to interview the sheriff at one point. When asked about the now notorious video of the member of the football team joking about raping the victim, Abdalla said he found it "disgusting." He told Anonymous that he was aware of the video's existence, but didn't watch it until three days ago, when Anonymous and their partners at LocalLeaks was first broadcast to the public via their constantly updating Steubenville Files.
