Emotionally intense images of retired Philadelphia police captain Ray Lewis - who has joined the #OccupyWallStreet protests - being arrested by the NYPD.

Captain Lewis has been outspoken against the NYPD’s wrongful use of violence against peaceful protesters.  From what I have seen, Ray Lewis’ conduct defines honor, bravery, and dignity. 

There is a media blackout on images of his participation in the protest, and on his arrest. It’s proved impossible for the photographer to get this shot of former Philadelphia Police Cpt. Ray Lewis being arrested, published anywhere.  He was adamantly rebuffed by the Philadelphia Inquirer, NYT, local NY papers, and Newsweek, before even looking at the photograph.  One of the only published photos of this paradoxical and intense event is located here at the NYC Observer: http://www.observer.com/2011/11/former-philadelphia-police-captain-ray-lewis-arrested-ows/

C’mon now. This is just insane.

Is it me, or are a few of these officers trying not to laugh?
