Occupados need therapy to deal with their ordeal
The LA Times reports that folks swept up in the police raid at Occupy LA may be in need of therapy to deal with their mild discomfort from being in police custody;
One speaker suggested that some of those arrested might need therapy. Several said they felt traumatized after witnessing police use nonlethal force and being forced to wait for hours in zip-tie handcuffs. Some displayed cuts on their wrists from the handcuffs. Others complained that they were forced to urinate in bags on the bus as they were transported to jails.
One speaker urged others to document any complaints. “Make note of every single violation of human rights,” she told those assembled.
During my stint in a Panamanian jail, my only toilet was a one quart milk carton, I was beaten nearly every morning…yet I didn’t need therapy when I was finally released. So what kind of pussies are we raising these days?
Some might avoid prosecution if they successfully complete a court program that requires them to perform community service or class instruction, he added.
Yeah, we can hold our collective breath before those punks are willing to do anything that can be considered a service to their community.

Hippie farm!! Ha ha ha!!
If they had “cuts on their wrists from the handcuffs.”, it’s because they worked at it to cut themselves.
The two opening flex cuff won’t cut into the arms of the cuffee unless they work at it. And, tell me, how does one urinate in a bag, when one’s hands are cuffed behind them?
Document “every single violation of human rights”? Which violations would that be? They weren’t shot, they weren’t beaten, they weren’t run over by trucks, they weren’t hanged from cranes. They were arrested and then picked up as the officers had time to pick them up. Fuckin’ pussies.
Who coined the phrase “play stupid games, win stupid prizes”? I like it and it definetly applies to this topic.
As Red Foreman would say “You’ll need therapy to get my foot out of your ass”.
or class instruction
Go to class, skip jail time. Yeah that seems fair.
Wait I get it they are all into planking.
Yeah, it must be really distressing to discover that being arrested is not the romantic adventure their college profs have led them to believe it would be. Bwess their widdle hearts. At least a few of them now understand why their mommies and daddies tried to teach them that getting arrested is something to avoid.
You’d think they would understand OWB, but something tells me it just won’t sink in.
I’ll give them traumatized when I personally trukey-slap the shit out of all of them.
They needed therapy long before they were arrested.
Surprise, surprise–most long-term drug abusers require therapy. Fab was right, this isn’t some big surprise given that they needed therapy long before they took the four-block ride from LA City Hall to the Men’s Central Jail.
And since nobody has brought this part up yet, why is it they’re claiming to be so traumatized about pissing in a bag when they’ve been shitting and pissing pretty much EVERYWHERE the past two months?
That thought had occurred. It kinda went, “In a bag, as opposed to what what exactly???” The trauma may be from being instructed that in the bag is the ONLY place to make a deposit? They are not accustomed to that much self-control?
