There are arrests everyday during the NY protests, and there have been incidents of violence. No, no, don't get excited righty scum! No "hippies" got violent. A pig cop walked up to a group of women who were trapped and peacefully standing behind a barricade and maced them. Yes, I know that brought a big smile to your face.
Anyway, anyone who wasn't a complete idiot, a vicious racist, or as is the case with nearly every righty posting on this board, both, would know that false arrests and most alarmingly, police violence, is endemic against the black population in this country.
It's borderline retarded to pretend to wonder why blacks would be more likely to avoid going to these protests. The people who are going, even though most of them enjoy white privilege with law enforcement, are taking a big risk. For any black protester, the risk is astronomical.
:lol:
Look at all the excuse's to keep the minorities out of your Occupy Wall Street party. If this was important to them, they would protest no matter what. Instead, they see it for what it is, a bunch of spoiled unemployed liberal WHITE college graduates that spent way too much money for their Liberal Arts degree and are now competing with the minorities for jobs at McDonalds.
