Over the past ten days, more than a dozen cities have moved to evict “Occupy” protesters from city parks and other public spaces. As was the case in last night’s move in New York City, each of the police actions shares a number of characteristics. And according to one Justice official, each of those actions was coordinated with help from Homeland Security, the FBI and other federal police agencies.
Homeland security was mobilized to end the OWS protests: the Patriot Act and creation of the Department of Homeland Security have now been used to stop peaceful political action in the United States. (via jonathan-cunningham)

Our dear friend Barry Neely says “Stick this in your Carmageddon.” At 5:30 AM on Sunday morning, they hopped a fence and had themselves a really early brunch in the northbound lanes of the 405 near the 101.
