NYPD destroyed 5,000 books at #occupy library, as well as tent donated by author and performer Patti Smith, which had been used to protect those books. The image of NYPD officers destroying books - tearing down a library - is one which should spark outrage around the world.

The image of NYPD officers destroying books - tearing down a library - is one which should spark outrage around the world. It is no wonder that the cowardly policemen conducted their raid under the cover of darkness and by suppressing the media so that there would be few or no images of their misconduct.

A culture which would destroy books is a culture which has truly become sickened, twisted, and corrupt.

I’m getting out of here, man.
