Coincidence? NYPD Received $4.6M Donation from Wall Street Firm Before Mass Arrests

by Dr. Boyce Watkins, Your Black World

One has to ask whether or not it’s coincidence that the NYPD receives its largest donation ever from a Wall Street firm and later arrests 700 Wall Street protesters at one time. It turns out that the NYPD “just happened” to receive a massive $4.6 million dollar donation from JP Morgan Chase this year. The funds were used to buy new police laptops, as well as security-monitoring software for the NYPD data center.

The FBI and the US Justice Department should investigate the NYPD, NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly, and the NYPD Foundation on this one, but they probably won’t.

and THIS is why Bloomberg made that idiotic statement that they are protesting the wrong person who was merely a common worker making $40-50K a year… what a DOOF… of course they were protesting the common worker’s MULTI BILLION DOLLAR EMPLOYER!

I hope there is a HUGE justice department investigation…

Not only should there be an investigation into the funds, the Obama Administration would be wise to get ahead of the Occupy Wall Street movement. The Tea Party will try to use the movement to their advantage, and say that those kids are protesting against what Obama stands for. But in fact, those kids are protesting sooooo much more. But they’re protesting mainly corporate greed. And whose party is controlled by Corporate America? Drum roll please….. it aint the Democrats. Not to the extent of the Republicans. And not to the extent that the rich has the Tea Party fighting for things that primarily benefit the rich.

The Number One job of the police has always been to protect the rich and their property. WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS BY NOW! They are paid from the taxes of the masses, but make no mistake…they are there for the protection of the life and property of the rich.

Just let me say this. The 4.6 million given to the NYPD was so obvious. Deep in my heart, I just knew that a donation or grant or some kind of special instruction was given to the NYPD by the way they were behaving and treating peaceful demonstrators at the primary protest. You could very well see that they were paid off.
