Police Brutality of the Day: Though this morning’s confrontation at Zuccotti Park was called off at the last minute when the park’s owner decided to postpone its clean-up project, police still managed to clash with Occupy Wall Street protesters celebrating their “victory.”

The above video allegedly shows an NYPD officer mounted on a scooter ramming into a crowd of demonstrators that spilled over from the sidewalk during the subsequent celebratory march.

One protester can be seen sprawled on the street after having his leg reportedly run over by the officer. Adding injury to injury, the cop can then be seen striking the wounded man before he is eventually hauled off.

Michael Tracey reported seeing a National Lawyers Guild member struck by a scooter, and CBS News reporter Miles Doran tweeted that his foot had similarly been run over by a police scooter, and that this was apparently a common occurrence at the scene.

At least 14 protesters were arrested during the march.

I had heard that a cop had run over a lawyer but I had no idea that he fucking parked on him then beat him down. 

What a piece of garbage. 

(P.S. Beating up a member of the Lawyers Guild, gosh these officers make dumber and dumber choices by the day.)

While walking past the Occupy Wall Street Group here in Seattle, I was handed this, I know this is very much true because as a native to this city I’ve seen with my own eyes situations like this.

This is for anyone in the Seattle area who would like to participate, I sadly can not but I wanted to spread the word.

The actions of the Boston PD will not go unnoticed. Spread this like wildfire.

This is sick.

Update:

Sorry I haven’t been as active as I would like to be, but I own no laptop and I have been busy at the Occupy Seattle rally!
