Occupy WallStreet

[Namosh]

I only made it half way through that video...it literally turns my stomach to see these fucking takers compare what they are doing to Martin Luther King, Egypt and Tiananmen Square. Fucking disgraceful.

Alot of America doesn't want to believe our country is corrupt all to hell.. They want to turn a blind eye and imagine that everything is perfect... but for the people fighting they are fighting to prevent this country from turning into Tienanmen Square, Syria and the others... They see what is really going on... So go ahead and let the blind lead the blind... maybe they will wake up when militant forces come smashing through their doors

So because I'm not down there, I'm talking out of my ass.....and every other person on this thread is just fine even though they aren't down there either?

Fucking hypocrite.

Why don't you go down to NYC and join in. You can shit and piss all over the place so the evil city workers will have to clean it up. That'll teach them greedy bastards.

You are missing the point. The idea that this movement is about corruption is a fucking red herring. There is a small percentage of those involved that believe that is what they are doing and I'm fine with that. But from day one, this has been co-opted by a whole list of other groups with ulterior motives. Anarchists by definition want to destroy the country, not make things better.

I'm not going to argue it any more. If you want to support this, more power to you. Just do it with your eyes open. Pay attention to ALL the people holding the signs. Things are not always as they appear.

Namosh,

I would like you to know, that no matter what you say, I respect you for having your opinion and I would like to believe that a little intellectual bout will not cause us to become enemies.

With that said, I would like to offer a rebuttal.

Could it be that your mindset has been planted by the media?

"You're a slave and you don't even know it. The shit you think of ain't even your thoughts."

-Hopsin

We all know that subliminal messages are used daily to bend the public's will to those of higher power.

Would it not be possible for you to be brainwashed and not know it?

People spouting your ideas and opinion seem to only have one objective, and that is to strike fear into everyone to get them afraid of something.

"Let's get everyone afraid of this one thing we don't want to happen so our interests can be protected."

Glenn Beck for example.

I want you to know that I DO NOT hate America. I hate the politicians who run this country that are bought out by the big investment bankers and big business owners in order to attain them more wealth. I hate the current foreign policy. We're a nation that only goes to war when it is profitable, kill when it is profitable, poison our citizens when it is profitable, deny Constitutional Rights when it is profitable.

This is fucking wrong and not what this Country was founded on.

This country was founded for the people. It says so right in the first line of the Constitution.

Since when is a corporation a person?

"I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one."

-Unknown

[Namosh]

I agree that a lot of these CEO's and corporations should be held accountable for their corrupt and illegal actions....but I think I've made it pretty clear what my issue with OWS is.

I am going to leave it at that. I see no point in arguing this anymore. (I've got another message board that is a 24/7 political war zone for that )

OcWS Protestors Being Held in Citibank Because They Attempted To Close Their Account(Video)

About 20 protestors went in to close their account with citibank but were asked to leave... when they went to leave security locked them inside the bank until police officers came. just before the police arrived an undercover officer dragged 2 individuals back inside since they had left just before the doors were locked... As you can see from the video the protestors inside are not being loud or confrontational, but simply wanted to close their accounts with Citibank... Actions such as this prove that this country is no longer a Democracy and has become a Corporate Machine... This is why OCWS began... this is why the rest of the world has started their own Occupy [____]. Is it illegal for an individual to close their bank account? No? then why are the police arresting people? the video shows that they were obviously not rioting/fighting/ or even being loud... so what did they do that was threatening to the general public hmmmm? I say "threatening to the general public" because the police are supposed to protect them and not corporations

Benito Mussolini- "Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power."

Thomas Jefferson- "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies..."

- "The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

And what do you think that OCWS is hoping to succeed at?
