Police Arrest More Than 700 Protesters

In a move that was inevitable, the police did what they do best, they impris­oned, oppressed, and sub­ject­ed oth­ers to what they want­ed to do.

For those of you that may not have been watch­ing Tele­vi­sion late­ly due to the fat that most of the time you can­not get “real” news any­way, what we have seen hap­pen­ing in Greece could be com­ing to a neigh­bor­hood near you soon.  The prob­lem is that most of these pro­test­ers are vot­ing age 20 to 35 years of age and they are angry and upset with some of the poli­cies of the White House.

The one thing that the police under the alleged orders of the embat­tled May­or and bil­lion­aire Bloomberg, are not con­sid­er­ing is that what will they do when they have no more room to arrest and detain pro­test­ers.

What will hap­pen when the day comes when 150,000 pro­test­ers show up.

When there are so many pro­test­ers that they can­not pos­si­bly arrest them all, what will they do then.

Will they shoot them, will they do as we have seen in the past, bring in tanks and begin to run over them in the streets.

If this sounds impos­si­ble con­sid­er that this is not the first time this has hap­pened.

There is a method of deal­ing with pro­test­ers and this was not it, the fact here is that for every one police offi­cer there are thou­sands of cit­i­zens.  That is where May­or Bloomberg has made his mis­take, con­sid­er what will hap­pen next, what if there are 2000 pro­test­ers arrest­ed next time.

How long will it take to process them, how many man hours will be need­ed, how much  mon­ey will be spent on this?

What about the court sys­tem already at the break­ing point, what hap­pens when cas­es begin to pile up high­er and high­er…

There is a way to han­dle this issue, set­up a time and a place and let them protest, it would save the city mil­lions of dol­lars.

How­ev­er, that is not like­ly some­thing that will hap­pen sim­ply because this may­or is not a real per­son, this may­or is a rich man who can­not under­stand what
It is like to find your­self work­ing 60 hours and after you pay the bills you have bare­ly enough to buy food or to keep your home warm in the win­ter.

Now that is what bloomberg does not under­stand about these pro­test­ers.

It is a bad thing to watch as we see peo­ple in the process of tear­ing their lives apart while the city makes plans to arrest them and to put them in jail.
Imag­ine how this is real­ly a bad thing but even worse imag­ine that we have seen it all before and we failed to learn from our mis­takes.

That is what is real­ly inter­est­ing, is that we have seen this hap­pen in the past but all our lead­ers did was to make larg­er jails, hire more police offi­cers, and buy more guns.
They did noth­ing to pre­pare for this day and that is what a lot of these pro­test­ers are upset about, the real prob­lem is not the pro­test­ers but the fact that many of the may­ors and the
gov­er­nors of this land have for­got­ten that there are more pro­test­ers than they can put in jail.

I hope some­one in gov­ern­ment pays atten­tion before this gets out of hand, because real­ly what they want is some­one to pay atten­tion and offer up a real solu­tion to the prob­lems that
these youth see as impos­si­ble to over­come, this is why they are tak­ing to the streets because they see noth­ing has changed.

They see that the hope that was promised was not real, they see that the change that was promised nev­er came.

Cor­rup­tion was what they received, while only a small num­ber of peo­ple get Union Jobs, most are work­ing for the low­est wage.

While the rich pay no bank fees the poor are forced to pay for deb­it card fees.

Per­haps that sounds pet­ty, but when you make only a few dol­lars a day, and some bank tells you sor­ry but were going to have to
start charg­ing you for all our ser­vices, even if you dont need them, because your poor.

Now that can real­ly be an insult if you a per­son that has so very lit­tle and the only alter­na­tive is to close your bank account, it is
like tak­ing away the lit­tle hope that they have.

The youth are see­ing that things are get­ting worse not bet­ter, they are begin­ning to see that this is not hope and there is no change.

But this does not have to be the way things go.

This does not have to be the way the biased news media has depict­ed it.

If you spend a lit­tle time lis­ten­ing to them, give them a venue to talk, give them a place where they can com­mu­ni­cate what they feel, per­haps that would be
bet­ter than arrest­ing them at every turn and forc­ing them in to what is real­ly slav­ery.
