I went a bit overboard in my first response, sorry about that. It's just I differ with you in opinion on the state of affairs and how it should be handled if need be.

You are right, if you are American you should try to uphold the constitution. I am Canadian, but trust me we are all in the same boat. Things are not that good if you look around the world. It appears that you are military so you have probably traveled and experienced exactly what I mean.

I do not want this whole situation to take a turn for the worse and get violent. But the people are sick of it. And it's most likely going to get a lot worse.

The people of the world are finally waking up. These protests are gathering momentum and people who are connected using the world wide web are watching and joining in with these protests. This isn't a fly by night protest that some posters here want you to believe. People are angry and are tired of being used by the bankers, corporate elite and government officials.

I loved the second video you posted. That's the way humanity should be! Governments of the world cause us to go to war with each other. We kill our brothers and sisters because of conflicts, political bickering and land that belongs to all of humanity. The military and police of this world are being trained to control the human race to keep the select few in power. The police and military are being used as pawns just like the majority of the human race.

S&F for reminding us how humanity should stand together for peace and justice for all.

As long as it remains peaceful I don't care how the protesters approach protest. I do NOT want to deny anyone or any group the right to protest so long as they follow what the Constitution prescribes. PEACEABLE ASSEMBLY.

Man watching the livestream and I gotta say I won't be surprised if this gets really ugly. Protesters refusing to listen to commands and move back. The police have been saying step back from the barriers or you will be arrested for 10 minutes. Ample warning in my opinion.

If some people would post less and listen more things would be *alot* worse at this point. Look, I come from a family of LEOs. I'm the first male child in four generations to buck the trend; that was a conscious decision when offered the chance to wear that badge. Why? I was advised. A sheriff and deputy sheriff both resigned, albeit at different times, because of the corruption. That sheriff and deputy sheriff was my great-grandfather and grandfather, the latter telling me "an honest man has more to fear from his fellow lawmen than the criminals..and that was in 1962. It's worse now, son."

I have seen with my own eyes and heard with my own ears the corruption that infests the law enforcement community in this country. I know good and well that verbal instructions have been given on how to goad the protestors into action. Why? Money. Each prisoner brought in equates to more tax dollars that can be used to help prop up failing local budgets.

Perfect example..just this past week a mayor ordered the police to stand down and they refused. Seattle I think..bear with me I'm having some dental issues right now and hydrocodone (prescription, ATS..don't blow a gasket) affects my memory. :p How much money do you think will be tacked onto the budget request this year for all the prisoners? How much more for the riot gear? What about tasers?

Point being is that it started out as a peaceful protest. Peaceful protests require little police oversight. Potentially violent protests require more. The last protest created a budgetary wish list for future protests. This protest will create an addendum to that budget, and so on and so forth until finally you can't cross the street without being eyed by a cop that thinks you're a subject, not a fellow citizen.

Holy just watched that lives new feed, some cop just told two rows of cops blocking the protesters to not stand in their way!

well done for making people late for work.
i wonder when the 99% will realize 98% percent of them dont really care.
