We don't know who they are, but we need to find out. If they are not charged criminally, they should should at least be subjected to civil suits.

Identifying The Bad Guys
Sept 25th, 2011
In the footage and on the scene reports from the Occupy Wall Street rally in New York, it does seem to be the white collar police officers in particular who are instigating a majority of the violence.
We don't know who they are, but we need to find out. If they are not charged criminally, they should should at least be subjected to civil suits.

The MSM Starts To Pay Attention
Spet 25th, 2011
If anyone can identify officers who have used violence or excessive force during Occupy Wall Street, contact the New York ACLU at 212-607-3300
The coverage is biased, but at least it's something.

What Next?
Sept 24th, 2011
Troy Davis is gone. As along as there is a death penalty, there will be more Troy Davises.
What comes next? Greg Bluestein asks that very question over at HuffPo:
"Minutes before he was put to death, Troy Davis asked his supporters to "continue to fight this fight" – but will they, and how?
The Georgia inmate's case outraged hundreds of thousands of people around the world who found the evidence against him weak, and opponents of the death penalty hope their anger provokes a backlash against capital punishment. Some activists say a fitting legacy of the case would be laws that bar death sentences for those, like Davis, whose convictions are based on eyewitness testimony.
With Davis gone, however, the loose coalition of groups who pushed for his freedom may simply crumble. Much may depend not on the death penalty's most strident opponents, but on less politically active people who were drawn into the debate by Davis' two-decade struggle."
The attention of America and the world is quickly moving elsewhere. This is unacceptable. I implore those of good conscience to become more regularly involved in the movement to abolish capital punishment.
Please join me in supporting the ACLU, Amnesty International and the NCADP

The Murdoch Device Doubles Down On Crazy
Dec 22nd, 2010
On yesterday morning's Fox & Friends, Steve "The Douche" Doocy hyped the phony War On Christmas before introducing Robert Knight, Senior Fellow for The American Civil Rights Union. Yes, the organization that wants you to believe the ACLU is an enemy of civil rights. In the appearance, Knight calls them "the Devil's law firm" and "the atheists and criminals law unit." To our utter lack of surprise, "The Douche" did not challenge this. Enjoy...
