Human Rights Violations in the U.S. Response to Occupy Wall Street
they think they get treated bad by their government, but in other parts of the world there would be an instant crackdown on these protests. the fact that they where able to hold multiple demonstrations which lasted way to long shows that there is noting wrong with the freedom of speech in the U.S. Stupid hippy's with to much time and smoke filled brains that's what they are!
so how much deaths have been in those protest compared to sirya,lybia,egipt,etc...? I guess there was too many to count?
And that has what to do with this case?Originally Posted by Tropical_ulcer

You can't compare a civil war to what a western police do in their own country.
But I agree that people are exaggerating these events....grow a pair
You're not good just because somebody else is worse.
And this doesn't seem to be some crackpot thing but a serious legal effort.
If some misconduct happened, it should be documented and investigated.
The other aspect of a investigation is find out what mistakes were made and see how the operation could have been improved.
In dealing with protests, these goals are identical.
Peaceful protest is to be allowed, violent protest is to be swiftly and effiently dealt with.
Maybe the bastion of human rights on the UNHRC will deal with this gross violation. I'd love to see the Saudi and Chinese condemnations.
I agree but some of these protest's took way to long imho when you "occupy" a place in the city for days you no longer protest you just disturb the order and hinder traffic ect.
Handling protesters "roughly" is still nothing to complain about. Especially when many of those protesters were taunting police with donuts on sticks, to say the least.
Two wrongs don't make a right but the Occupy protesters should be held accountable for whatever they damaged or did wrong, if they truly want justice.
Police are professionals not petty school children. Physiological taunting is no excuse to be more physical.
I found the donut thing funny and probably so did many police.
Today I came across the "Occupy Frankfurt" camp in front of the European Central Bank.
Its really a sewer. And mostly populated by vagrants and gypsies.
College students probably couldn't stand the stink anymore so the only protesters left a few stalwarts.
Agreed, but when police have orders to clear a specific group of protesters out of a certain area, such as a busy road, & the protesters refuse, then there are problems.
In general, if police are in situations where they may feel threatened, or unsafe, then it's understandable to do something. Taunting police, being disorderly, & resisting them; isn't right no matter what. Especially when some protesters put their focus on the police & resisting them, instead of getting their point across (some, not all or most). And the police reaction certainly isn't enough to get such a severe charge of a Human Rights violation.
The occupy movement was primarily a mixture of rapists, criminals, druggies and the violently mentally ill. The human rights violations were committed by these occupy leftards. I used to work near one of the public parks these scum illegally took over. They were festering pits of disease and filth. Everything about Occupy was disgusting.
