I believe one could successfully argue that the 8-month old fetus has the same status, legally, as any 8-month old fetus involved in an illegal late-term abortion case.

The difficulty would be in establishing her willful negligence and crimes, or the lack thereof.

Sorry I was referring to the 3 month old fetus.

Maybe a 8 month old would be known by looking at her? Do you think there should be a investigation into what exactly happened even if that may put officers at risk?

Who cares, if she spends 1 second in front of a judge its a waste of time and money. It's not like she is probably in a position to pay court costs for the state to recoup any of the costs of hearing the case and prosecuting her.

I think you have to have a child to really have an opinion of abortion. Ask me 10-15 years ago and I'd be all pro choice... ask me today and I'll tell you that is a baby.. I don't know at what point... but bottom line is that it's a baby. It's going to grow into a baby as long as you don't kill it.

Here's a good video comparing #occupy and the tea party. It goes over the tactic of interviewing random people and putting the worst of the worst on tv to influence peoples opinions of the movement.

It's funny seeing Hannity fiip flop completely between the 2 movements on the same exact issues.

It's not meant to necessarily be a fox news hit piece. Fox news just does their own magic.

I think we both know that's not what they said to her, nor was it ever their intention to directly harm any babies...

No, you keep extending the analogies to suit your purposes. I just keep them going along the same lines to show their ludicrousness.


What "abortion"? There was no abortion in these cases.

The argument is floating around about the woman who miscarried (reportedly) because of the pepperspray. A miscarriage that is instigated by an external stimulus can be classified as an "abortion". If you do so, then the one who applied the stimulus instigated and performed the abortion.

All solid links. All using the same logic those on here are trying to associate sitting down to violence.

I said that some may consider her negligent actions "on par with," or as bad as, an illegal late term abortion.

And some may consider that absolutely ridiculous. The ONLY thing a sane person would say in this would be that she did not need to be there, and that she WAS risking her health, but NOT that it is her fault the cop did her wrong.

She is only responsible for going out where cops did not follow the law.

Until gun rights are removed from "terrorist threats".

Then the definition of "terrorism" is expanded. Now people who are not natural born can't have firearms... Then they find a way to classify things like drivers licences or other unusual qualifying requirements.

Someone who simply sat down on a sidewalk and did not move when told by cops is now a national threat.... A speeding ticket is next..... ANY infraction (downloading MP3s...).

The key to oppression is to do it slowly and keep cutting off the pieces that give you the most problems a little at a time. You crush too quickly and you get too much to handle, to many people who are hurt by the incisions.

That's how the Nazi's did it. Bit by bit, until it was "too late" to look to your brethren for help, because they had already been taken.

False. Non-citizens can own firearms and even carry concealed.

I can't find any solid documentation yet on the woman who has miscarried her pregnancy yet. All I see right now are initial reports of the incident.

A woman who is three months pregnant can be obvious, or not depending on her body type.

If followup reporting does back up her story then the behavior of the officers is very disturbing indeed.

To the conservatives its just one less liberal. If spidey had his way all liberals would be rounded up and put in camps.

OWS is still a bit of a confusing entity. How are meditation circles and daily yoga events have anything to do with protesting.

African Americans in the 50s and 60s had a pretty clear cut goal and set of protests (ie sit ins etc..) I don't thing they had drum circles, meditation and daily yoga events scheduled.

I am still pretty much skeptical regarding the effectiveness of OWS reaching the working stiff and/or actually causing positive change to occur.

It's a cluster f***. I'll be the first to admit it. Any and all fringe groups have come out of the woodwork to join the movement. Each with their own different message and grievances.

Then you get media outlets who show the worst of the worst and interview random bums and next thing you know half of america thinks that all #occupy protests are unemployed communists who want a hand out.

Thank god we have the internet so that at least those of us who don't want to be ignorant don't have to be.

I have also asked you to provide some support either in police procedure or in statute that says someone will be considered violent and can/should be chemically assaulted after ignoring police orders.

I've never worked in law enforcement and am too lazy to do any research, but from what I've seen (personally and on TV) if the police tell you to put your hands on your car, behind your back etc and you don't you're gonna get an azz wupping.

I don't see how ignoring orders to untangle your arms and move off the sidewalk would get a different response from the police.

I'm not saying the protestors were being violent. But they were not complying and that'll get you trouble. BTW: Although I don't know the strength of the spray, it did seem excessive to use that much. The guy looked like he was spray painting a house.

I'm fairly certain that's not true. I knew of a guy that seemed like a terrorist in school that ended up getting filmed by the FBI shooting some assault rifles on a ranch in South Texas and got the book thrown at him.

Interesting question. See SCOTUS case below.

The Court most recently mentioned the Second Amendment in dicta in United States v. Verdugo-Urquidez, 110 S. Ct. 1839 (1990). Verdugo-Urquidez was a citizen and resident of Mexico, and a drug dealer. The Mexican police arrested him in Mexico, and brought him to the U.S., where the U.S. cops arrested him. With the permission of the Mexican police, the U.S. narcs searched his residence (in Mexico), and found documentary evidence detailing drug shipments to the U.S. Verdugo-Urquidez moved for suppression of that evidence as a violation of the Fourth Amendment prohibition against unreasonable searches and seizures. The question for the court: Does the Fourth Amendment apply to non-resident non-citizens outside the U.S.? The answer: "No". The court's reasoning: The Fourth Amendment protects the right of "the people" to be secure against unreasonable searches and seizures. Who are "the people"? According to Chief Justice Rehnquist, the phrase "the people" was a term of art used by the Framers. Rehnquist wrote:

The Second Amendment protects "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms," and the Ninth and Tenth Amendments provide that certain rights and powers are retained by and reserved to "the people." See also U.S. Const., Amdt. 1, ("Congress shall make no law ... abridging ... the right of the people peaceably to assemble"); Art. I, s 2, cl. 1 ("The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States") (emphasis added). While this textual exegesis is by no means conclusive, it suggests that "the people" protected by the Fourth Amendment, and by the First and Second Amendments, and to whom rights and powers are reserved in the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, refers to a class of persons who are part of a national community or who have otherwise developed sufficient connection with this country to be considered part of that community. 110 S. Ct. at 1061. Since Verdugo-Urquidez is not part of "the people," he is not protected by the Fourth Amendments (nor, apparently, by the First, Second, Ninth, or Tenth).

http://thefiringline.com/Misc/library/kates.html

Might be that a non-citizen need be a green card holder to have the same 2nd Amend rights as a citizen. IIRC, the phrase "a class of persons who are part of a national community or who have otherwise developed sufficient connection with this country to be considered part of that community" has never been defined by the SCOTUS.

She is only responsible for going out where cops did not follow the law.
The point is that IF she disobeyed any officer's lawful order, then it was actually SHE who "did not follow the law" -- hence the possible charge of negligence.

If it can be proven that the police did not lawfully order her to move before taking action, then you'd be correct.

However, I think you already know how it played out, and who it was that actually disobeyed the law...

Right. I asked you what parts of their actions met the definition of violence, and you said that they were fervent about something. That was patently absurd.

I have also asked you to provide some support either in police procedure or in statute that says someone will be considered violent and can/should be chemically assaulted after ignoring police orders.

You are being deliberately obtuse. What can/should the police do when protesters block public walkways or otherwise keep other citizens from free passage? Ask nicely? Offer them a kitten? Plead and cajole? What? In my opinion and i'll keep stating it, the police have the power and authorization to use force in order to make people comply with the law. Too bad if you don't like it, if you don't want to see force used on the protesters, tell them not to break the damn law.

Great picture! Obviously from the way she is holding that pen-like shank she was attempting to use it to inflict grievous bodily harm to the officers. I hope she is arrested and charged accordingly. Please post more pictures of these dangerous criminals.
