The pepper pray incident is being investigated...Tony Bologna (the pig who used the mace) was at the BK Bridge arresting people, so it's not having a huge impact on him personally. However, many of the superior pigs were clearly itching to get at us, many of their comrades held them back, warning them that they were on camera, so there is some positive outcome from that.
In other news, a class action lawsuit against the NYPD and Michael Bloomberg has been filed, alleging that the police deliberately led us onto the bridge and trapped us. This is true. I have pictures and video showing not only the initial police line dissolving as several officers lead us across the bridge but also pictures of police separating protesters from traffic and keeping the right lane open to BK-bound traffic as we started to march across the bridge. There was an officer on a megaphone, but even on the NYPD video, he's barely audible. I certainly couldn't hear him over the thousands of protesters.
Here you can see the cops escorting us and keeping a traffic lane open:

To all involved:
Please remember: Your cell phone is your friend. Bring a camera. Bring two. Have it ready to go at any moment.
Anytime you see police brutality or any 'heavy-handed' approach - RECORD. Take pictures. Upload.
The police in NYC are being tolerant from what I hear - but keep this in mind in case things get worse.
(Snozz, you rock.)

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but those of us who can't actually be there can show our support, and at least feel like we're helping by signing the latest Avaaz petition.

Just marched at the protests in downtown SD today. I would say 3-500 people were there, though its hard to tell and I am awful at estimating this sort of thing. Definitely could have been more than that. LOTS of energy and passion. Young people, middle aged people, old war veterans, its awesome to feel that unity among people. I couldn't see exactly how many were occupying the plaza indefinitely though.

Paul from tokin daily talking to an occupy denver protester. The guy seems sincere and eloquent in his intentions behind him being there and where change needs to start. A good tokin daily episode anyway.
I have the feeling they are both very toasty in this video, but that's to be expected from tokin daily :d.

Bravo all you Nexians who are participating in this. There is no coverage of these protests in the international media but it does seem to be spreading, protesters camping in Brussels at the moment.

Maybe this will be the first real world revolution were the people transcend petty nationalities and fight as one? Man that would be awesome!
Peace
