Police brutality, Nate? Really? Maybe a little of this took place before the brutality ensued: (Newser) – Hundreds of people protesting the eviction of the Occupy Oakland camp clashed with police last night. Police fired tear gas at least five times into a crowd attempting to retake the camp outside Oakland City Hall, the San Francisco Chronicle reports. The protesters regrouped after each tear-gassing, with some throwing paint, bottles, and other missiles at police in riot gear. A police spokesman says they had no choice but to use tear gas to protect officers, two of whom were injured by thrown paint and chemicals. http://www.newser.com/story/131870/cops-occupy-protesters-clash-in-oakland.htmlI may have issues with the police, but OWS attacking them and later b!tch about brutality after the police defend themselves (or retaliated) ain't going to fly with me. |

Ignore Guido's red herrings. Here's the beef: http://news.businessweek.com/article.asp?documentKey=1376-LTNGHR6TTDS701-5VN16LH8N7D44BU3HUDM7JVRSJNew York Working With Delaware on Criminal Foreclosure Probe
Oct. 26 (Bloomberg) -- New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is working with his Delaware counterpart, Beau Biden, to investigate what he called possible “criminal acts” by financial institutions tied to the foreclosure crisis.
“This was a man-made crisis -- it was created by regulatory neglect and greed,” Schneiderman said last night in a TV interview.
“Beau Biden, who is the attorney general of Delaware, and I thought we really needed to dig in a little bit deeper,” Schneiderman told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow. “We're also looking at the conduct of individual institutions and individuals to see if there were misrepresentations made, to see if there was any fraud committed, to see if criminal acts were also a part of this.”We can discuss accountability, transparency, and responsibility, or we can allow ourselves to be distracted by a sideshow. |

Peter Schiff vs. OWS http://www.mrctv.org/videos/peter-schiff-takes-99The first part is largely a filibuster by an OWS person, but from 1:50 to the end are comedy gold--especially when Schiff asks the woman how many people she employs. It really is a snapshot of the polar opposite views of tax policy. edited. |

I saw that earlier today. Did the cops or fellow protesters launch the "projectile"? |

You seemed to imply that the number of people you employ or the amount of money in your bank account has something to do with how much say a person should get in how our government works and how our society is structured. |

It should be obvious that number of employees and $ in the bank do have something to do with..... But they shouldn't. There are offenders on both sides of center. I actually don't understand wealthy liberals. They should be sharing it with all the poor folks to the point where they are no longer wealthy. Comfortable would be OK but wealthy seems hypocritical. |

He is not 'seeming to imply'...he has stated it outright on several occasions in the context of paying taxes. |
