Here we are entering into what is becoming a Police State and NYPD asked us to twitter on it to give en a better image. Hilarity follows...



Ordinarily I would have just copied this whole long-long list of posts and put them on a htlm page and archived them with my many others, but after some consideration I decided I should do both. I should post it here for you to access and then save the post offline to follow the links when I have time for future reading.
This isn't a cop bashing post. I don't even need to do that because they do that well enough themself.

I just wanted to let you see what kind of policing you can expect in every County, City, town in every State, because that's just about what a police state looks like, isn't it?

We don't think the New York Police Department intended the social media campaign to go this way, but it quickly did.
Now Twitter is full of images alleging police brutality, when the NYPD intended with the campaign to show a more community-minded department. ‪#‎MyNYPD‬
The premise was simple: the New York Police Department wanted the public to submit a picture of New York City citizens with any of its officers.

The New York Police Department attempted to garner support Tuesday with a photo campaign on Twitter, but things have not gone as planned.
Many took to Twitter with the hashtag ‪#‎myNYPD‬ and photos that are not painting the friendly picture the NYPD was hoping for.

‪#‎TwitterFAIL‬
A request by the New York City Police Department has backfired - in a very public way. Its request that Twitter users share pictures of them posing with police officers using the hashtag ‪#‎myNYPD‬ has caused people to start sending in photos of police brutality instead.
The responses soon turned ugly when Occupy Wall Street tweeted a photograph of cops battling protesters with the caption "changing hearts and minds one baton at a time."

The nation's largest police force took to Twitter to start a community engagement campaign. Only its intentions backfired quickly.

The New York Police Department's Twitter account was flooded with pictures of alleged police brutality after asking Twitter users to share photos of police officers. Instead of a low-cost, feel-good public relations campaign, it got images of police officers manhandling members of the public. http://bit.ly/PrMdAM

A plan by the New York Police Department to use Twitter to boost its image seems to have backfired.

Oh, god. The NYPD asked people to tweet photos of themselves with members of the NYPD. Molly and others have responded with photos of themselves being unjustly arrested, beaten, brutalized, and more. The NYPD's social media strategy leaves something wanting.

NYPD Turns Violent at Occupy Wall St. (2 of 3)
Pete Eyre and TRommy document the March Occupy Wall St. from NYC's Liberty Park to Union Square and do some capblocking on Sat,, September 24th

Despite the fact that badges don't grant extra rights - those donning them acted as if they thought otherwise.

This is one of three related videos.

The first is an overview of activities at Liberty Park & Wall St from the day prior

OWS STRIKES AGAIN, AGAINST THE NYC COPS......70'OOO PROTESTORS WITH PICTURES
...................................
When the New York police department invited people to tweet pictures of their dealings with "New York's finest" with the hashtag ‪#‎myNYPD‬, what could possibly go wrong?
The attempt at public outreach, however, backfired spectacularly when users flooded Twitter with hundreds of photos of police brutality during Occupy Wall Street, one of an 84-year-old man brutalised for jaywalking – and even a dog being frisked.
By midnight on Tuesday, more than 70,000 people had tweeted about police brutality, ridiculing the NYPD for a social media disaster and recalling the names of people shot dead by police.
Police officials declined to respond to questions about the comments, which were being posted at a rate of 10,000 an hour, or say who was behind the Twitter idea. But they did release a short statement.
"The NYPD is creating new ways to communicate effectively with the community," Kim Royster, an NYPD spokeswoman told the New York Daily News. "Twitter provides an open forum for an uncensored exchange and this is an open dialogue good for our city."
The request for pictures, on the @NYPDNews Twitter page, had said: "Do you have a photo w/ a member of the NYPD? Tweet us & tag it #myNYPD," the message read. "It may be featured on our Facebook."
It prompted a flood pictures of officers mistreating people and old newspaper headlines about unarmed people being shot dead by police. It also sparked similar hashtag trends – including ‪#‎myLAPD‬ – and attracted international attention.
Not all the posts were negative. JP Quinn, 40, tweeted a picture from inside the old Yankee Stadium with his brother Michael, 38, who is a detective in Brooklyn South. "I like when they make public efforts like this. It's a shame that it blew up like this," Quinn told the Daily News. "I just assumed it would be all roses, like whoever came up with that for the NYPD."
The NYPD tried to make the best of a botched job by retweeting all the favourable photos.
Last year, Wall Street giant JP Morgan was at the centre of a social media storm when it invited Twitter users to send questions to an executive using the hashtag ‪#‎AskJPM‬. The bank was deluged with vitriol. More than 8,000 responses were sent within a six-hour period, two-thirds of which were negative.

Did you hear about this? Twitter gone wrong for the NYPD.
Twitter users hijacked an NYPD social media campaign on Tuesday, flooding the ‪#‎MyNYPD‬ hashtag with 10,000 negative responses - many of them photos of violent arrests.
The idea was to get people to share photos of themselves with city cops, but instead, the Twittersphere posted complaints from excessive force to the controversial 'stop and frisk' practices.
