I love when this stuff happens!

However, this might shake things up a bit as far as protesters clashing with police.

I can see a bunch of strong proud young men who may be just a little fucked up still from being shot at and blown up lossing their shit on some fat power hungry cops..

All the fuel will be piled high just waiting for a spark.

I think the cops might think twice before trying to tangel with the military. you start fucking with military on the streets they may inadvertanly draw even more into the fray. Despite any orders from on high. And god forbid some Marine sailor soldier or airmen gett killed by police durring this protest. The back lash could get deadly. Espeascialy if the military folks know that the NYPD was just bribed by the banks to the tune of (what was it 4 billion). Yep could end up pretty messy on walstreet.

This has the potential to get both ugly and out of control, quite possibly on purpose as I can think of quite a few people and organizations (not to mention feds) waiting for an opportunity.

Agreed.  These protesters seem to be the type that they will react violently eg. 12 Monkey's for those who saw the movie.

Is this the beginning?  Who knows...but I'm watching in case it is.

"Demand one: Restoration of the living wage. This demand can only be met by ending "Freetrade" by re-imposing trade tariffs on all imported goods entering the American market to level the playing field for domestic family farming and domestic manufacturing as most nations that are dumping cheap products onto the American market have radical wage and environmental regulation advantages. Another policy that must be instituted is raise the minimum wage to twenty dollars an hr.
 
Demand two: Institute a universal single payer healthcare system. To do this all private insurers must be banned from the healthcare market as their only effect on the health of patients is to take money away from doctors, nurses and hospitals preventing them from doing their jobs and hand that money to wall st. investors.
 
Demand three: Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.
 
Demand four: Free college education.
 
Demand five: Begin a fast track process to bring the fossil fuel economy to an end while at the same bringing the alternative energy economy up to energy demand.
 
Demand six: One trillion dollars in infrastructure (Water, Sewer, Rail, Roads and Bridges and Electrical Grid) spending now.
 
Demand seven: One trillion dollars in ecological restoration planting forests, reestablishing wetlands and the natural flow of river systems and decommissioning of all of America's nuclear power plants.
 
Demand eight: Racial and gender equal rights amendment.
 
Demand nine: Open borders migration. anyone can travel anywhere to work and live.
 
Demand ten: Bring American elections up to international standards of a paper ballot precinct counted and recounted in front of an independent and party observers system.
 
Demand eleven: Immediate across the board debt forgiveness for all. Debt forgiveness of sovereign debt, commercial loans, home mortgages, home equity loans, credit card debt, student loans and personal loans now! All debt must be stricken from the "Books." World Bank Loans to all Nations, Bank to Bank Debt and all Bonds and Margin Call Debt in the stock market including all Derivatives or Credit Default Swaps, all 65 trillion dollars of them must also be stricken from the "Books." And I don't mean debt that is in default, I mean all debt on the entire planet period.
 
Demand twelve: Outlaw all credit reporting agencies.
 
Demand thirteen: Allow all workers to sign a ballot at any time during a union organizing campaign or at any time that represents their yeah or nay to having a union represent them in collective bargaining or to form a union.
 
These demands will create so many jobs it will be completely impossible to fill them without an open borders policy."

2 thinks on this subject.

1) Most of the people in these protests are genuine and know the Fed is responsible.  They don't agree with what the coocks that came up with this stuff but they are not part of the co-opted group that is too well organized to be a "grass-roots" anything.

2) I have received info on vets and other groups running as security for upcoming protests and my opinion is this:

Either it will really turn into a shit storm, or we will find out exactly who will stand for how long, who will walk away and how far the police state will take this.  Or nothing more will happen as a lot of these gatherings are at least being attempted co-opted.

I would worry more if we hear very little or nothing on the news about it in the coming days.  If that's the case, put it up on here under a diff. thread and verify as much as possible but be sure to state if it is not first/second hand knowledge.

USE EXTREME CAUTION and try not to go alone, use the buddy system.  Observe from a distance and if you have a buddy have them confirm as you type a post or text the news to someone.  If you need a contact send me a PM.  Fast travel of info will be key if something happens. 

I for one have my shit ready and will be keeping my ear to the ground.

Here's the thing.  How long do these guys stay peaceful?  Do they really think what they are doing now is going to change one iota of what Wall Street or the government are doing?  It's not!

So what happens when these people realize that their peaceful protest is not having any affect on what they want.  Do they just go home?

Anther point is that there are several groups there with differing agenda's.  They didn't start getting the crowds until the Unions joined in.  If the Unions don't get to co-opt the protest they may take their members and go home.

Just thinking.

Here's another take on the Occupy Movement.

From the article:
Editor's Note: It should be noted here that this "movement," although perhaps organic at its inception, certainly is not organic now. Van Jones, the former Obama administration "green jobs" czar and self confessed communist, has called for the "Occupy Wall Street" movement to expand into a revolution on the model of the Arab Spring, postulating that October is going to be the start of "a progressive revolution that will eventually overthrow the government of the United States and bring down the capitalist system." Jones believes we are seeing the beginnings of a left wing tea party uprising in which the far left use the tactics of that citizens' group to advance the liberal agenda. In fact, number three on the list of "demands" being made by the Occupy Wall Street Movement (if it is an organic amassing of individuals and smaller activist groups how do they have a set of "demands") is, "Guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment." A Marxist enabled and manufactured astroturf, for-the-cameras event? You make the call...but two things are for certain: 1) This is a movement mired in Marxism and anti-Capitalism, and 2) It is definitely not "organic."

EDIT: HAAHAHAHAH!!! the occupyNOLA livestream is running anti-teaparty propaganda, including a rap song by a local rapper called "what if the tea party was black".... oh jeez.. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtH7vH4yRcY[/url]


I'm against racism.  But I've gotten to the point where when a black person wants to make racism claims about whites I just say, " Don't even dare talk to me about racism until the black community sweeps off it's own doorstep first!"

so i've spent quite a bit of time in the occupynola livestream chat (haven't been able to make it out to the protest yet, I've been at home with my daughter)

but this is what I can say about what I see in the chat:

- plenty of sheep and/or trolls as expected

- surprisingly, I'm impressed by how many level-headed people are chatting despite the sheep and trolls

- a majority of them are leftists as expected, but I've brought a Libertarian element to the chat and several of them are pretty damn openminded.

- most of them agree that both liberals and conservatives share a common enemy, and the specific ideological differences should be put aside for now, and hashed out later once the common enemy is out of the way.

I must say, I've gained a bit more respect for many of them. you have to filter out the dummies just like you have to with anything else.

I specifically asked the chat room "how would you feel if a large group of Gadsden Flag flying, Libertarian and/or conservative good ol' boys showed up to stand with you" and the response was overwhelmingly positive. they WISH guys like us would join them. most of them don't expect us to accept their leftist views, but they want to be unified against the common enemy which is the Fed, bank/wall st./gov corruption. they agree that political differences should put aside until this goal is reached.

I'm pleasantly surprised to tell you the truth. (I even got a group of them talking about prepping for a little while last night.  [url=http://www.freesmileys.or)

As long as that was what it was about and they actually did put the politics aside I'd be willing to stand next to one of those liberal fellers and holler at Ben.  Although, I did hear some of them shouting "down with capitalism" on Wed. there in NO.  I'm not sure if they were talking about Capitol One or the free markets.  I kinda like free markets as long as they are contained within our own borders.

It's going to get a whole lot bigger in California.  Now the pot smokers will have a whole new reason to protest.  ( That's a boat load of people in California folks!)
