Default Occupy Cleveland cancels 'May Day' rally, says bomb suspects involved with movement

5 men arrested by the FBI today in an alleged bridge-bombing plot in Cleveland.

Quote:
A member of Occupy Cleveland said he saw all five suspects at a meeting for the organization Sunday. He said he considered three of them friends and they never talked about anything violent with him.

Three of the suspects had references to Occupy Cleveland on what appeared to be their Facebook pages. Brandon Baxter , Joshua Stafford and Tony Hayne all said on Facebook that they worked at #OccupyCleveland and live in Cleveland, Ohio .

Occupy movements through the U.S. planned May Day protests Tuesday targeting U.S. financial policies. Reports said they hoped it would be a day that would help revitalize the movement.

Occupy Cleveland tweeted Tuesday afternoon "Occupy Cleveland is shocked by these allegations. We continue to be committed to creating social change through non-violence."

Boy, I'm sure am glad these guys were stopped. Can you imagine the outcry if they had been part of the Tea Party movement?

In this case, what you don't know can hurt you!

Wow, no Obama or Democrat supporters wish to address this? Where's Pelosi's support for this group, now?

After a whole election cycle + of hearing "The Tea Party are violent racist extremists!!!", and having everything blamed on them from the S&P downgrade to the Norway and Giffords shootings, I would probably stay quiet in light of stories like these, too!

The affadavit filed by the FBI is pretty chilling.

Apparently, these men bought the fake C4 from undercover FBI agents, placed them on the bridge, and attempted to detonate them....more than once.
