They justify their actions of impeding citizens and closing businesses as freedom of speech. What about about those citizens and businesses constitutional right of liberty? There is absolutely NO justification.
Surly if anyone in OWS ever had a job they must know that people paid by the hour have lost a days pay. Will they pays those peoples bills or reimburse them for wages lost??
With no leadership and the mob mentality its now wonder anarchist infiltrated the protest. That makes OWS liable. They created the environment for this to happen. I also blame the Oakland Mayor. Once the protesters started forcing businesses to close and impeding peoples passage they should all have been immediately arrested.
I can tell you this. New York is not like Oakland. Those actions will not be tolerated thats why QWS NYC has been peaceful and generally (used loosely) lawful
This was an extremely successful even because it demonstrated that 10,000 people could easily shut down America's 5th busiest port. Of course it is easy when you are speaking of the interests of the 99% against the Top 1% who ruined the government and caused this depression.
Bravo to them but it will not be enough! I have asked the United States Largest Union to call a Nationwide General Strike for a week to show its support to the movement and the People. This petty anti BS isn't going to work unless and until it is on a larger scale. All Unions and Non-unions who really believe and are the 99% should MARCH (peacefully) and strike and sign petitions to impeach these American imposters (GOP & Tea-Party Terrorists). Then call for special elections and start over. Educate the Voters on the Candidates and kick these Communists imposters out of the country. That is what and who they really are. Look at the whole story of the four older men recently arrested in Georgia. They're opinions and reasoning is not alone. Just their execution was flawed. In order to enact real change "We the people need to get involved and do the right thing the right ways. The people that you Vote in need to know EXACTLY what you want and how to do it
Government should regulate a balance between consumer protection and creating a profitable business environment. Instead they cater to corporate interest to protect the profits of powerful corporations. I think, the lobbying system is the root of corruption in the United States. It would do us good to do away with this system.
However, demonstrating in the streets against corruption or corporate greed seems too idealistic. The OCCUPY movement's message is too vague. The chaos in the streets impedes commerce and does not lead to an attainable objective. Although I agree with their ideals, I find the demonstrations very counter-productive.
I think, the place to fight this fight is not on the streets, but should be fought in the ballot box instead.
Think of what can be produced with the time and energy being spent complaining about how unfair things may be for you and why you may deserve more. Put in a good days work for a good days pay. If you arent happy with that, go back to school or work harder.
You seem to be lucky to have what you are talking about while 98% Americans are either sick/unemployed/ broke with broken family & unsurmountable debt. Stop preaching like Christian priest who commits horrible crimes but still preaches.
It is not MAYHEM. it is the 2nd time in US history that the settlers of Americas are fighting for their fundamental rights.These settlers came to Americas to loot but only a few from WS have been able to loot& rest worked as their slaves so that Mafias of WS& their crony politicians could loot.These settlers should behave like Tunisians/Egyptians. But alass these settlers who came to loot others for better their future have proved to be whimps
Though I applaud the Occupy Oakland concept of people standing up to voice their concerns I believe they are not focused upon the most essential issue.
It is our unaccountable government officials and the media it controls that needs to be held accountable by citizens.
I am the publisher of the Badger Flats Gazette and am under attack by the top government officials of California. I put seven Monterey County judges into retirement that are cronies of Mr. Leon Panetta, now our Secretary of Defense.
I lived in Monterey where Panetta comes from. When I caught my own attorney with the opposing counsel from Leon Panetta's son's law firm fixing a real estate case I was threatened with criminal prosecution if I didn't shut up about it.
You can listen to the call I had from Panetta himself asking me to forget about the matter. When I busted a Mayor for taking bribes with the FPPC I received death threats from him which were covered up by the police he was in bed with. You can see me forced away from City Hall by police when I was trying to speak at the open mike and tell citizens about them. The newspaper didn't print a word about it.
If you really want to set this government on its hind legs contact me. I will show you how to peacefully bring them all to their knees very quickly.

The fundamental problem lies with all settlers to Americas is that they all came to Americas to loot others to better their life.American settlers have been genetically mutuated to be looters.They either loot their own or other countries by selling WMDs, creating Wars,Terrorists & dictators for the sole purpose to loot
VishTheChange, every nation and people has taken its turn looting and taking advantage of other nations and peoples, and it's always led by the rich and powerful.
