With the recent protesting dating as far back as time, or the Occupy Wall Street protests and more recently the protests over the murder of Michael Brown by the Ferguson Missouri PD, the NYPD are admitting they are merely reacting to the situation on the ground. The NYPD says they're not controlling the fluid situation because they are being outmaneuvered by Twitter and disposable cell phones. Never ones to give credit to anyone for using such ten-years-ago-technology to outwit them an NYPD insider whined to the New York Post:
"They wore me out," said one counterterror expert who monitored the protests. "Their ability to strategize on the fly is something we haven't dealt with before to this degree."
While the NYPD actively monitors Twitter, Facebook and other social media for intelligence, sources said the official chain of command keeps squadrons of cops from moving around as quickly as protesters.
Sounds like the chain of command is the problem there Skippy, but yeah of course blame others for your failings. Also, they're using counterterror technology to monitor Ferguson Missouri protests. No, no overstepping boundaries there. We're certain when the billions for monitoring equipment was being spent and the place on the form said what will this be used for it simply said EVERYTHING. What toolbags. Billions in the ability to monitor and follow persons of interest and they're bitching to the NY Post.
If you're a protestor, keep on doing what you're doing. A lot of the time in this here America you have to break a few windows to even get anyone to stop counting the money. America itself was born of protest, violent protest. The British no doubt called Washington and Jefferson and Franklin "spoiled brats" from well heeled families who had nothing better to do than agitate. Good thing they kept showing up to the protest meetings using age-old codes to move about secretly in looking back isn't it?
A lot of people won't get no supper tonight
A lot of people won't get no justice tonight
