If they're not doing anything wrong, why are they afraid of being filmed?

While holding a microphone and wearing a badge identifying myself as an employee of “WNET – New York Public Media,” I found myself suddenly roped into one of the large nets. I was thrown against a wall and handcuffed with hard plastic zip-tie restraints. I sat on the sidewalk with about 50 others.

...per the topic- we live in a police state. No doubt. This happens all the time. This is the war on terror and YOU are the terrorist. It is all built for youns- because they know that the dollar and economy is doomed.

For the very same reason the police in the UK often say it is illegal to film the police in action, which it's not, they simply do not want any evidence that they have done wrong, so remove the independant recorders, then they have a free hand to abuse people's rights.

Is this in any way similar to the situation debated in the thread recently where security had abused people's rights in a public park, because if it is, it could even be an extension of the ill conceived patriot act, where traditional peace keeping has been perverted.

But it is worth understanding what police officer could mean, because it could mean something entirely different from what you think it means;

Police is similar to the word policy, and officer, where does one find officers if not in some official situation, possible corporate situations as in office and one has to be very careful of legal terminology, because often legal terminology, legalese does not mean what the layman thinks it means.

Not true. I do not participate in that system any more then I have to. I stack silver. Which is a blow to the banks. I own no stock- keep very little in the checking account. I try not to feed the beast. If more people did that- the beast would die.

Hey Pahunk, as a point of interest, perhaps you should stop telling the world you stack silver, because there are people in the world who would be quite happy to take that off of you, depending on how desperate things become. You are not totally anonymous on the web you know !

How is paying your ISP and electricity bills not feeding the beast? The same could be said of paying a grand for a PC manufactured under contract in a Chinese sweatshop, come to that.
For somebody who wants to see the beast die, you're doing an awful lot to support it.

Of course they are going after the liberal media. They are about showing the truth and reality of this world unlike fox news that show the conservative view point. And No thats not being biased

They are mad as hell and aren't going to take it anymore. They are mad because of the lack of jobs, the austerity measures being implemented (by both parties), the lack of health care, the budget cuts to schools, fire departments, police departments (though NYPD seems to have plenty to have so many officers doing overtime to harass these peaceful protesters). If my roof could wait until next spring, I'd be taking time off work and going to NYC to join in the protests, but I've saved for 6 months to get the roof done and it needs to be completed before the first snow fall.
