Nathalie Rothschild and Occupy Wall Street

I was reading at the Huffington Post about what happened in Davis and decided to read some other articles when I came across this. "This Preoccupation With Playing the Victims of Wall Street Is Pathetic".

I am sitting here reading the name, Rothschild, hey I have heard that name before. Her bio on her website did not identify who her parents were or whether or not she is part of the Rothschild banking family; but, it is still sort of off-putting. I mean it gives the appearance of the privileged attacking the those who have been taken advantage of by the system.

Bill Cooper - Behold a Pale Horse

There was a broadcaster named Bill Cooper. Bill Clinton once called him the most dangerous man in America. If you have never heard of him you might enjoy hearing some of his broadcasts.

William Cooper - New World Order Part One

William Cooper - New World Order Part Two

Mr. Cooper was killed by police officers who were dressed up like drunk red necks. He was shot in the back and died. He predicted the 9-11 events in advance and was killed shortly thereafter 9-11.

I have to say that I disagree with Mr. Cooper's belief in the militias. I don't believe in violence as I have said many times. What I find interesting is how he outlined what would happen in the United States because a lot of it has already. It is important to listen to many voices in order to determine what you believe. You also have to know which parts to believe and which not to.

Will U.C. Davis Lose in Court



Two quick points, the police officer that pepper sprayed the students at UC Davis, well, his name has been published in the news. The protesters have also announced that they plan to sue in court.

The Sacramento Bee, which used to be a decent paper, posted a very biased article. 10 Occupy protesters arrested at UC Davis quad


The article begins with this,"A confrontation between police and Occupy protesters at UC Davis ended Friday afternoon with the arrest of 10 students after police officers used pepper spray to force protesters from an encampment in the campus quad, according to protest supporters and a campus spokeswoman."

What, did the spokesman not view the video or do they just not care about the truth and how could the "reporter" not bring this into question. Does that look the people getting pepper sprayed had surrounded the police? You can watch the video it is linked to in one of my earlier posts. Does that cop look scared of the kids sitting on the ground, were they intimidating him by sitting down. Does it look like they are preventing him from doing anything?

Do the people getting pepper sprayed look like they are inside an encampment? The first picture is the one published by the Sacramento Bee to accompany the story. The second picture is what really happened. That my friends is media dishonesty and propaganda. Read the article in the Bee and watch the video and tell me that the reporter was unbiased.

Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth

Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth


Apparently Newt Gingrich made a comment about the protesters. He said they should get a job after they go home and take a bath. Wait, did he just call them the great unwashed masses? What a stinking piece of garbage he is and how out of touch he is. Hey Newt you were supposed to represent everyone not just the people who gave you all that money.

Enough Already

A Moron Leaves U.C. Davis, The Chancellor

Chancellor Katehi of U.C. Davis decided it was time to leave the school for a bit. It will be longer. Here are two videos worth watching. The first is of her leaving the school and she second is of the students after her departure. I want to talk about both after you have viewed them.

The thugs masquerading as campus police have a problem. The Chancellor has a problem and it will not just go away in a couple of days. By intentionally pepper spraying students peacefully sitting on the ground in protest with no reason only caused the whole school to come together and the reason is simple, they knew that they could all be treated the same way.

All across the United States we are hearing mayor's say that they are concerned about the safety of the Occupiers because of "health" concerns they instruct their police to go out and pepper spray, beat and arrest them. I'm glad they aren't concerned about my health, I prefer seeing a doctor to being beat. What type of logic is it that justifies such a thing? Warped logic.

Look you don't have to agree with the Occupy movement or everyone in it; but, you should be able to tell when the politicians are lying. Out of concern over the protesters health they shot them with dowels and bean bags in Oakland. If there is going to be any meaningful discussion the first thing that needs to happen is that the politicians need to listen and recognize the people that they are supposed to represent.

My advice to the police is also simple, don't beat the people who you are supposed to protect because not everyone is a pacifist as I am. The cop that sprayed those students should probably just resign because my guess is that everybody will know who he was. Who will listen to him and how will he react towards every student who he sees saying, "Shame on you".

The protests are not going to stop. Not in a day and not in a month. New ways will be utilized for protest, this is history, learn from it. We don't want to live in a radicalized and polarized nation. Who would want to live in such a state? Attempts to clamp down peaceful demonstrations only highlight what is wrong with the people running our institutions.

This is Disgusting - The First Amendment Matters

I want everybody who reads this to watch the linked video. A group of students sitting on the ground in protest at U.C. Davis are pepper sprayed by what I assume are campus police for no apparent reason. The officer pepper sprays them as if they were not human at all. Watch the video and then read the linked article. In the article one officer says that this approach is standard for people who don't comply. Really, you watch the video and tell me that this is right and by the way, how many people will seek to go to a university where this is how they are treated after paying their money to get an education.

The video - YouTube - Police pepper spraying and arresting students at UC Davis
The article - Officers in pepper spray incident placed on leave

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

You better respect the constitution as it applies to all especially those you disagree with or it has no meaning and you have no rights. When the people with authority violate the laws then the people will soon follow and ignore them also.

UPDATE:

You know I went back and read a couple of articles on this and I am more disgusted now then when I first saw the video. The moron in charge of the campus police said that the officers had been surrounded by protesters and had to use pepper spray in order to get away. Really? Is that what you see in the video? The officers didn't pepper spray people surrounding them, they pepper sprayed people sitting on the ground. The police had no problem leaving and had weapons.

Do we hire any police with and sense anymore? U.C. Davis has had many protests, why is it the the Occupy movement protest was treated harsher? The protesters were not intimidating the police, they were just sitting on the ground, walk around them. What effect will this episode have on the campus police and the university itself? Not a good one.

As I have said in the past, this is not about a law or series of laws, this is about the system itself and that is why it is found so threatening to people who presume they have authority. The video highlights who is truly guilty and it is the police. Could you casually use heavy duty pepper spray on someone just sitting on the ground as the officer did? How do you do that to someone, I could not and my father who was a distinguished would not have.

There are those who think that they will simply remove tents from lawns and that the issues will all go away; but, that is not history. UC Davis Police Chief Annette Spicuzza stated that the police had been encircled and were forced to pepper spray so that they could exit. She is a liar and the video shows that. Shame on her, she should be removed from her position as she clearly is incapable of taking the appropriate action in order to restore some dignity to the force that she commands.
