In case anyone is interested. The OWS protestors have stolen vehicles and are using them in the riots.

If not put under control, this very well could be Kent State or LA Riots redoux.

Here is a live steam of the rioting:

let me point out what actually happened here:

a guy was corssing the crosswalk while a car was trying to get through the intersection, the driver holds the car horn down and pushes his car right up against the protester. it looks like the protester is nugged back by the car and falls, catching himself on the hood, then hits the hood of the car. a second later the driver stomps on the gas petal, running the guy over.

the other protesters nearby swarm the car, which any decent human being would do - that guy didnt deserve to be ran over. once the police got there they took the drivers information and let him drive away in his car while protesters were calling for police to arrest him. i think the guy got off easy, its not everyday that youre allowed to drive home after you run someone down in your car.

I actually made that statement well before that actually happened. When I offered the link, there was a good 30 minutes before they began reporting on the mercedes incedent.
