Occupied Territory

We're all terrorists now-- a discussion, with David Swanson, of the NDAA (National Defense Appropriations Act)--signed into law on New Year's Eve... It certifies President Barack Obama's secret powers of torture, indefinite detention without trial and the ability to wage perpetual war everywhere--including our own country! Say goodbye to the Constitution, it's now merely a historical document. The country is still ours though--time to take it back.

Billionaire Busts Free Speech

Michael Bloomberg, the 12^th richest man in the United States, decided that the non-violent protestors in Zuccotti Park were enough of a threat that he had to send in the NYPD equivalent of the Tenth Mountain Division to rout them. His shock troops threw people to the ground, punched a woman in the face, slashed and trashed the property of the Occupiers, roughed up and arrested members of the press, preventing them from doing their jobs, and ignored a Temporary Restraining Order to allow the Occupiers back in the park. They threw out thousands of books from the OWS library. So much for Freedom of Speech…

Bloomberg is The Reason there is an Occupy Wall Street.

Guests today included  Bob Marcus of http://peaceandjusticeonline.org, a coordinating group for anti-war and Occupy groups on Long Island, New York; and  Buck Gorrell of Occupy Nashville (media@occupynashville.org)
