Weakest protest ever, this is awful TV, no wonder nobody is covering it. There is nothing exciting about a guy walking around eating a Clif Bar and filming a bunch of people standing around.

After they tasered that guy in Brooklyn, the crazy dude with the light bulb, they are NOT going to be tasing anyone that is not trying to actively kill them.

So, some stupid anarchists just came over and removed the police barricades, putting them in a pile, then the police came up, grabbed one of them and arrested him, then another cop picked up a barricade and used it as a weapon, but what he hit was a press photog and threw him to the ground.

Press was already forbidden to go to a corner where other arrests were allegedly happening - police were checking papers and only allowing through, to walk on public streets, people who live there or worked there.

What a horrible concept, those police are awful. How dare them let only the people through who had to get to work or wanted to go home.

KTLA here in L.A. is covering OLA......I have to laugh at some of the people they have interviewed asking them why they are here. Honestly people you should educate yourself as to what you are protesting lol.

Yes, it was a public street a block from Zuccotti. Why wouldn't people - especially people with NYPD press passes - not be allowed to pass? Since when do you have to show papers to walk around in America?

Oh - because Bloomberg makes the rules up as he goes. Like when he chose to disregard a TRO yesterday for 5 hours.

Because it was the corner of Wall St. and Broadway.

You realize over a hundred were arrested this morning?

I heard 70. That was at a different location a block away, not at Zuccotti. The "where other arrests were allegedly happening".

Do you have any concern at all about the subject of the post: the innocent people that were carelessly hit by police? Anything?

Got to love the topless protesters. And the guy with the Occupy a Desk sign.
