More Occupy violence as plans to blow up a bridge are foiled by the FBI. Certainly these 5 are a motely looking group who might have been better served cleaning up a bit and getting a job instead of the mischief that will now put them in jail.

CLEVELAND - Occupy Cleveland canceled a scheduled rally Tuesday after a group of men connected to the organization were arrested by the FBI.
In a news release, Occupy Cleveland said the five men arrested in a terror plot to blow up the Route 82 bridge in Brecksville were "in no way representing or acting on behalf of Occupy Cleveland" and Occupy is rooted in non-violent principles.
Members of the movement were set to rally at the GE Lighting building in Cleveland in protest of outsourcing of jobs and corporate greed.
The rally was tied into May Day, a day typically associated with protests for workers' rights.
According to an FBI affidavit, the group of suspects arrested in the terror plot talked about targeting cargo ships on May 1, the day of the "fest."
"Ships are a 'd--n good target," one suspect Douglas Wright allegedly said during a meeting with the other suspects, adding that all of the cops would be downtown for May Day.
Another suspect, Brandon Baxter, then allegedly said, "May 1st is going to be crazy."
Here are the names of the other three suspects: Anthony Hayne, Connor Stevens, Joshua Stafford.
According to the FBI, the suspects showed interest in causing financial damage through attacks. Baxter advised the group that blowing up the Detroit Superior Bridge would would not stop money flowing to the "One Percent."

They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists.
You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
