Looks like there wont be any more of the Occupy Des Moines movement

Dozens were arrested at the first Occupy Des Moines event Sunday night, including a former Iowa state representative and a 14-year-old girl. All but one of them have pleaded not guilty, and some are now asking how much the state's governor knew beforehand.

Video from the event shows police officers dragging or carrying away some protesters. Others were escorted away with their hands zip-cuffed. According to some who were arrested or witnessed the arrests and later spoke with The Huffington Post, many had bruises, cuts and scrapes from the arrests -- and they believed police had used excessive force.

Police arrested the protesters remaining on the Iowa statehouse's west lawn Sunday night for "trespassing" because they said the area closes to the public at 11 p.m.

Sgt. Jana Rooker, the public information officer for the local sheriff's office, told HuffPost she didn't have an exact number, but estimated around 40 people were arrested for trespassing and various other charges.

That's really interesting. Franky Cownie, the Des Moines Mayor, called me just after I issue my Executive Order preventing these commy protests in Freehold and asked for a copy.

It is a relief to hear this Mayor. Ugly rumors were going around that the Des Moines mayor actually was supporting this by allowing them to stay in a city park and engaging in who knows what sort of debauchery.

Unfortunately I am afraid that Governor Branstad may be a closet sympathizer. The man quit a high paying job as president of a local medical school to go back onto the government dole.
