1. Check this link out - Read the signs - There is also a link that is telling the story as it happens!
http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/wall-str...
And:
Here is the link to hear the people who are there:
http://www.livestream.com/globalrevolution?utm_source=l...
So basically you don't know either but you are going to supply a couple of useless links to make it look like you do because you know DUmbasses won't bother to click on them ...

12. Here is Michael Moore's comment on this "leaderless" protest -
Michael Moore Encourages Expansion Of Anti-’Kleptomaniac’ ‘Occupy Wall Street’ Protests
Videoby Alex Alvarez | 9:21 am, September 24th, 2011
http://www.mediaite.com/tv/michael-moore-encourages-ant... /
Filmmaker Michael Moore visited Keith Olbermann‘s Current TV show to discuss the “Occupy Wall Street†protest currently unfolding in lower Manhattan. The protest, for those unfamiliar with it, was organized as a “leaderless resistance movement†by Adbusters magazine.
The goal, as it currently stands, is to set up camp on and around Wall Street for two whole months and repeat one simple demand… to be decided by those participating. Music and culture website Death and Taxes, bemoaning the lack of mainstream media attention being given to the protests, summarizes its general goals thusly: “The Occupy Wall Street protesters, on the other hand, have ideas and are intent on highlighting the mechanisms at work within the perpetual boom/bust cycle that is the American economy and democracy. One of their main messages would appeal to many hundreds of million of viewers: That the wealthiest 1% of Americans own 40% of this country’s wealth and that the other 99% of fighting for the scraps.â€

So even the fatass Michael Moore doesn't know. That paragraph makes NO sense.

14. Now it makes sense.
I was wondering why you were so obstinate in your refusal to admit that those women were just brutally pepper sprayed for no reason. You oppose the whole venture and have chosen to ignore the atrocities.

17. rather than "ignoring atrocities" i like to see evidence
yes I see some people got pepper sprayed. Why.... all Ive heard is one side of the story,that is was uncalled for...
I like to withold judgement until I hear both sides and can judge the credibility of both...
while I have no great trust of cops i also dont have trust in protest groups that try and inflame passions with shouts of police brutality...
and a short video clip is not "evidence"
Careful there troll. You are making way too much sense to be at the DUmp.

19. Video clips are not evidence?

NutmegYankee can't figure out how video can't be evidence yet probably believes the ACORN videos were all doctored

Eat free pizza, sing, dance, screw and string a bunch of big words together that don't make sense and call them demands.
They should have called it the "3P's" demonstration...pot, pizza and p*ssy.

Ending capital punishment is our one demand.
Ending wealth inequality is our one demand.
Ending police intimidation is our one demand.
Ending corporate censorship is our one demand.
Ending the modern gilded age is our one demand.
Ending political corruption is our one demand.
Ending joblessness is our one demand.
Ending poverty is our one demand.
Ending health-profiteering is our one demand.
Ending American imperialism is our one demand.
Ending war is our one demand.

I understand that the business of
FREE MUMIA!!!
is being discussed, as we all know that Wall Street is responsible for his imprisonment.

They want free shit and stuff, is what this is about.

I don't think the thread will get very big. None of the DUmmies can answer the question. Those who chose to post pretty much display they have no idea of what the protestors want. Those who choose not to post will be able to say it's not worth their time to explain to a "stupid 'bagger what the protest is about."

I've been watching the chat and live stream for a while now. The one demand is not verbalized. Most of the hippies do not know or care what the demand is.
they want revolution. They say socialism but they mean communism. They want a purge like Ayers wanted. Death and jail for all who have more than them, or who disagree with them. Work in a bank? They will kill you or put you in hard labor doe the rest of your life. Banks will be replaced by the state. no one may profit at all from his labor, the state will pay everyone what the state thinks is best.
they say democracy, but they mean dictatorship by the party elite.
they may smell bad.
they may be disorganized.
BUT. if ever they get power, they will become some of the most evil people you will ever meet.
tyranny comes in many forms. learn to recognize it.
this is the new left. When they say economic justice, they mean a murderous program of genocide.

It's like pornography. They can't define it, but they'll know it when they see it. :rofl:

No kidding. These folks would be oppressors in absolute SECONDS if they were ever able to obtain power. They scare the shite out of me.

That's it in a few words. H5.

That may be true. Their problem is that everyone who could carry that out is on the other side.
