Day of Rage latest update


I find it interesting that it is extremely hard to find details on the Day of Rage.  Yesterday, the "live feed" was down most of the day, but, reports, according to tweets were there were several arrests. 

According to tweets today, there was suppose to be a meeting between the protesters and the Teamsters.  Now, this is not a good thing.  As I have posted before, the teamsters are looking for a fight.  It will be interesting to see what happens.

The live feed is somewhat working today.  According to what I have seen, there is heavy police presence.  It amazes me how the live feeds work whenever someone get arrested.  Of course, let's not forget about people going around yelling "Police Brutallity".  I am not there, so, I don't know if there is or not.  The video do not show any.  That's not to say that it isn't happening.

According to the New York Observer, "Yesterday saw seven more arrests, which is more than the compiled total of the previous days. Neither was it all calm and peaceful protests, either: According to website Death and Taxes, the NYPD are being accused of using “excessive force” in tearing down the tents the groups were using to stay out of the rain."  You can read more and see video here.
