break-in

a seattle s.w.a.t. team breaks into the home of occupy activists, searching and seizing property, without making arrests or explaining their presence.  in the youtube below, RT discusses the break-in with occupy seattle activist phillip neel (woken and handcuffed at the scene), the aggressive and unconstitutional crack-down on occupy by police agencies, and implications for the occupy movement.

 

also in occupy news, village voice reports here on a perceived attempt by n.y.p.d. to smear the occupy movement by connecting public transit activism with a grisly murder committed in 2004.
