The NYPD is disgracing itself and joining the ranks of dogs who serve their masters in every other oppressive regime throughout the world.

One day they will look back in embarrassment when they realize these same banks they are defending are also stealing from them and their pensions. But they are slow to learn. You don't have to pass an IQ test to be a cop. Quite the contrary. They need their leashes cut.

The NYPD are nothing more than a financial secret police which seeks to exploit and oppress; all American police agencies are the exact same. R

The police are the guardians of the status quo. They identify with the powers that be. They are doing what they think is right. They are wrong.

As more and more people begin to take a stand in defending their Constitutional rights, sooner or later this is going to get real ugly. The cops are gonna find themselves being surrounded, and sooner or later, by armed protesters. "Those who make peaceful protests impossible, make violent protests inevitable."

Anyone who believes these charges against Assange is naive at best. They were created as a way to take him down, shut him up and dismantle Wikileaks. The anger should be that the false accusations and charges they decided to create were of rape and sexual violence. They knew this would be a devisive issue for women and hard to politically defend without looking mysoginistic.

 

Wikeleaks may our last chance at truth in media and a check on corrupt powers and governments.
