Former Police Captain and Current OWS Protester Ray Lewis Arrested
At least 200 people have been arrested so far for peaceful assembly and nonviolent civil disobedience, including retired Philadelphia Police Captain Ray Lewis. “All the cops are just workers for the one percent, and they don’t even realize they’re being exploited,” Mr. Lewis said. “As soon as I’m let out of jail, I’ll be right back here and they’ll have to arrest me again.”

A NYPD spokesperson was unable to confirm individual arrests, they did comment that “multiple arrests have been made in relation to the protests” and the charges were still pending.

7. And the video footage is from "Russia Today".
The irony of this is incredible. It makes my head hurt.

It makes my heart hurt.

Thank you, Mr. Lewis. :patriot:
