�Deeply concerned� police sergeants are coming out swinging today against obnoxious Wall Street protesters, saying they plan to �pursue legal action� against demonstrators who injure any of its members.
Ed Mullins, president of the NYPD�s Sergeant�s Benevolent Association, said his group plans to pursue legal claims against Occupy Wall Street protesters should they cause injury to any of its 5,000 members.
�In light of the growing violence attendant to the �Occupy� movements across the country, particularly as evidenced by the recent events in Oakland, I am compelled to place these so-called �occupiers� on notice that physical assaults on police officers will not be tolerated,� he said.

What is the deterrence in suing a bunch of jobless, homeless riffraff?
It never happens this way in a protest. Ma Nishtaneh Haprotest Hazeh Meekol Haprotests?!?
I thought if a person injures a police officer, they go to jail. They also get sued? That’s a new one.
