Here’s an interesting fact: There were 600 people arrested over several days during the 1999 Seattle WTO protests. The NYPD just arrested 700 in 5 hours.
JP Morgan has also made a massive, $4.6 million dollar donation to the NYPD today. Such a strange coincidence. http://theelitist.net/nypd-receives-jp-morgan-donation-mass-arrest-of-protesters-at-occupywallstreet

Woah.
This is horrifying, actually.
The JPM donation is just so sickeningly transparent.
It looks like that donation happened back in June: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-03/scene-last-night-perelman-bon-jovi-at-new-city-police-foundation-s-gala.html
