Occupy members return to Zuccotti Park to seek #Justice4Cecily

http://twitter.com/#!/kellystuart/status/463440648230961154

Cecily McMillan, a graduate student and Occupy Wall Street activist, faces up to seven years in jail for assaulting a New York police officer in 2012. A jury found her guilty today, and a sentencing hearing is set for May 19.

According to the Guardian:

McMillan denied the charge. She claimed that she swung her arm back instinctively only after having one of her breasts grabbed from behind while she was walking out of the park. Her lawyers showed photographs of bruising to her chest to support this. They said McMillan did not know that  [Officer Grantley] Bovell was a police officer, and did not intend to hurt him.

Testifying, McMillan said that she had “no memory” of the moment her elbow struck Bovell. “I’m really sorry that officer got hurt,” she said. She has said that she suffered a seizure or anxiety attack after being arrested and subsequently received treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder.

Her lawyers stressed throughout the trial that she was a moderate left-wing political activist who had urged her fellow Occupy members to pursue a path of non-violent engagement with the state.

Supporters of McMillan are planning to meet in New York’s Zuccotti Park Monday afternoon to protest the verdict.

How do the Ferguson police mix up the sex of the wounded officer?

http://twitter.com/#!/knightsofknox/status/516090764485734400

As Twitchy reported earlier, there were multiple incorrect reports that the officer wounded in Ferguson, Missouri was a woman. How exactly do the police mess something like that up?

Tweeters are wondering the same thing:

Dear Kanye Western,

I am recognized is creating these a significant celebrity. I will be only internet experience. I’m unsure i will be useful to manage you, and even though Huffington article performed condition We became “Humorous and Insanely Popular.” We don’t spend much target those jobs. Anyhow, please excuse my disruption in your own life for a straightforward second.

We read your meeting additionally viewed it on movie. You reported: “I’m just offering of my body inside phase and putting my entire life in peril, almost.….and I truly do think about anyone of it. I do believe about my youths and I’m like, wow, this could be like becoming a police officer or something like that that way by doing this such as this, in war or something like that similar to this.”

I wish to thank you for putting by yourself particularly in danger right each day. We realize being a rapper is tenacity. I attemptedto rap, which will be as an alternative difficult to hold because of the pulse when it comes to rhyme flow…although whenever Ice Ice Baby occurs environment, i will be good at frequently match ol’ Vanilla. Anywho, your task is some actually dangerous work. Many individuals don’t consider… if you rap truly rapidly, without choice to inhale, you can easily move and hit the pinnacle.

That last component ended up being covered in sarcasm. I’m helping you learn, just to make sure you wont think We accept your acutely ignorant evaluation of work (or any other performer)as it pertains to folks inside the military or a police officer’s response. You sir, are usually since mistaken because they come. I must state i’ve an indication readily available for you. While experienced in risk, from your own life as an internationally rapper, i will be certainly inspiring you straight away abandon you place as a fantastic celebrity and obtain in concerning the armed forces. After joining, i’d enjoy that volunteer become implemented in Afghanistan or other possible many forward locations for which our dudes an women are usually providing. If Taliban begins shooting at you, maybe you could remain real and enable terms motion. It can be anything eg “I’m Kanye western, putting on a flak vest.” I’m yes they’d just drop sources and surrender. You can expect to typically end-all conflicts, merely from adversary getting star-struck.

Your few reasoning is one aspect in experience of issue throughout the world today….which function entertainers thinking they are typically some thing above merely entertainers. I know its offer and need and importance of the solutions you provide is huge. We now have business business organization economics. The single thing I really do not get is you EVER contrasting all things do for earnings to your courageous armed forces gents and ladies, which’re constantly in harm’s means… and my relative and sibling cops with to attend patiently work keeping sources and putting on a bullet-proof vest to protect separately.

Check yourself, before you decide to wreck yourself….Chief Oliver.

More than merely ghost hunters and authorities chiefs have discovered western’s comparison a little challenging simply take. He could not be a solider, but he’s making use of enough shots.
