In the City of the Angels, a peaceful means of addressing the economic disparities of the American population will be addressed properly. This will be a model for the rest of the nation.

so you think that 100 unemployed people in LA will come up with a bridge that will satisfy everyone from the wall street investor that works a high stress 80 hour week to a professional athelete that earns enormous sums for playing a game to an unskilled laborer that thinks that cleaning toilets in the local mall should be worth $50/hr to a recent PHD graduate with $200,000 in unpaid school loans and a PHD in "Folklore" Sure....
God bless these occupiers. And just to set the record straight "prevailing local laws" have no legal justification for limiting the rights guaranteed by the Constitution. It only shows the inadequacy of our educational system to have so many commenters claiming that it's all right to protest as long as you don't inconvenience anyone. The entire U.S. economy is $13 trillion a year. The Big Banks have created $700 trillion in unregulated derivatives that are floating around the planet waiting to blow up. And these uneducated conservatives are worried about getting their Christmas shopping done. Indeed, one of them complained that there weren't enough shoppers in the store, jostling each other and waiting in line. The reason there aren't enough shoppers is that there aren't enough jobs. The reason there aren't enough jobs is that the big banks have dried up the money supply. They can make more money investing in Communist China. What a country. What a curse living in a country dominated by conservative media. Thanks CBS, for giving us the whole story.
Oh it's a lot deeper, more complex, and sinister than the wealthy and big banks and media. Occupy is a nice foot note in history, yet it will take a strong political movement to make things roll; and no, calling i the Occupy Party would be a nonstarter....four words for ya - United States Freedom Party
conservative media??? if you believe that... you are the only person in this country that does.... wow...... by the way, your rambling post is a classic example of flawed deductive logic.
A news story showed some of these individuals burning money, in protest...if these types of money to burn, and some of the denominations were fifty dollar bills, then I'd say they have nothing to protest about...the burning of our currency is unlawful: Specifically, this is a violation of Title 18, Section 333 of the United States Code, which says that "whoever mutilates, cuts, disfigures, perforates, unites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national banking association, Federal Reserve Bank, or Federal Reserve System, with intent to render such item(s) unfit to be reissued, shall be fined not more than $100 or imprisoned not more than six months, or both." The law is enforced by the Secret Service. I hope the Secret Service rounds these imbeciles up and prosecutes them under the prevailing Federal statute.
Pretty soon the American people will round up the criminals who have broken this nation, and prosecute them by whatever means necessary to get rid of The Beast. Perhaps the Secret Service will join us in repairing our broken nation, federal statue or not.....
These people are practicing their first amendment rights. It's obvious we have way too many police on the payroll. They have become nothing more than thugs for the wealthy at the expense of the middle class.
"...exercising one's rights also requires that it's done within the framework of prevailing laws..." except for actually supporting and/or creating another functional political party, which "Occupy" seemingly hasn't the time or will for, getting your nation back on track by doing it "according to the framework of prevailing laws" will basically go nowhere. It will take real revolution This time is nothing like the civil right's movement, your nation is ran by a system of The Beast, which is a mighty evil force, it laughs as your "protest" as you "exercise your rights"...it will use violence and force against you to ultimately prevail, it is written into its law. If you want to make a difference Occupiers, grow up, and each and every one of you go to Washington, you'll have enough number then to get more than a few months of fame....
