Snagged! Occupy Tells Protesters to Break Law

The Occupy movement is claiming New York City police busted their demonstration yesterday without probable cause while WND has discovered Occupy literature suggesting protesters should intentionally break Zuccotti Park’s rules.

The New York Police Department said it rained on Occupy’s parade when protesters started breaking the park laws, specifically by bringing tents and sleeping bags indicating some activists planed to camp out.

“They set up tents. They had sleeping bags,” NYPD Detective Brian Sessa told the Associated Press.

Sessa told reporters that Brookfield Properties, the park owner, first sent in security to advise the protesters to stop pitching tents and to leave the park before the NYPD was called into action.

At least 25 people were arrested in the ensuing clashes, with three officers suffered injuries, police said.
