Well, another clip of what has become typical for the OWS movement has emerged. The cops on this one seem completely carefree to act as they like despite the cameras. The more dangerous implication however, is that these are not even riot cops, they got only uniforms and batons, nothing else, yet they are clearly crossing the line without thinking what will happen if someone across said line cracks and fights back. You are not supposed to aggravate protests unless you can handle it later on.

Clip proving what everyone said was totally an accident - the deliberate shooting of Scott Olsen
Throwing the flashbang in the group that was trying to help him was accidental too. The cop's hand slipped. This is why you need to put some fear of God in these suckers. A peaceful protest cannot achieve this.

I don't blame the banks
No, really I don't.
Neither Wall Street. Its not that they've done nothing wrong, its just that we would have done the same in a similar situation. Consider it for a moment. What is the goal of the free market? Profit. What is the motto of the Invisible hand? That the market will regulate itself. But combine it with point 1 and you see that the market will regulate itself to provide maximum profit FOR ITSELF. What happened is painfully simple. Given free reign in return of the vague promise that they won't do what they did...well, results are in. All of those financial institutions tried to grab as much as they want, and truth is, they ARE too big to fail - the global economy depends on it, we can't halt it or everything will go to hell. Lovely isn't it?
So yeah don't cry when your credit card goes out. Just look at the name of it- Credit - card. That means you/me/someone/ will have to pay for all of this. Eventually. Its what's happening now pay day on a world scale. Occupy Wall Street is both right and wrong. They are right that something has to be done, but they are protesting at the wrong place. You can't blame money makers for making money(by taking it from yourself included) you need to blame the one who allowed them to do so with impunity.
