700 arrested in New York anti-greed demo.

What a shame, what violence, how sad.

 

A place people could respect, not sneer at for its empty lies and racist ignorance.

 

Looks like regular ol' boys in a Saturday night bar-room to me. The hoodie chappie has a nice right hook.

 

Why is it sad to stand for your rights?

The images are just a small part of it, greek riots and bombings go a lot further.

 

Violence is sad, that's all.
This week its ok, right? Next week the same people who applaud the right hook or the bombings, join ranks with anti violence protesters.

 

So you believe greeks should be ok with being raped and exploited by greed of banksters and sellfishness of germans and french?

I dont, good for direct action.

 

The protestors themselves are racists. All of them are white.

 

I don't give a whatsit what colour they are. Racists are people who believe in your nutty American 'race' concept.

 

They are beating up bankers? Looked like cops to me.

 

You have to start somewhere.

 

You may not care, but in America the protestors are susceptible to attack because they are not representative of all of the American people. The American left used this same avenue of attack against the Tea Party Movement in order to delegitimize it. That's why it's fair to hoist the American left on their own petard.

 

The anti-capitalist protesters who have set up camp in lower Manhattan are becoming a fixture of the area. Occupy Wall Street: the protesters speak

 

According to European outlets the unrest has spread right across the country. Here's a small-town America report.


Occupy Wall Street spreads across N.C.

All the agitators in wallstreet will have no impact on the digital money being hoarded by the moguls of the world. The only way to stomp out the greed and wealth is to turn off the broadcast meida news spinners, vote out every incumbant relic in government, and turn to the barter system.

That's right, do a barter system. Make a trade not for money, but for value.

Ask your self, is what you do worth living off? Are you worth trading your skill/service for food and shelter?

If you have a college degree in something that is not worth trading, don't expect to sustain life in the real world economy of wealth.

IMO gold means crap in the real world, the ability to sit on ones ass and do nothing for cash money means crap in the real world. Do you have a skill or service worh food? Well do you ?

 

Yep, I give guitar lessons in return for beer. Not exactly food but close enough...

 

Takes me back.

 

Bump- just in case Americans want to know that the establishment is arresting hundreds of those who demonstrate against it........and that thousands more are taking their places.

 

By email;

Coming to a town near you.....soon.

 

Just thought I'd bump ' Relevant's ' comment, in case a few thousand people missed it

 

Apparently 71 countries will be having protests tomorrow Saturday outside their stock exchanges.
For once I hope that ours has a rest tomorrow
Our SE has been rising steadily on all indexes since the Maspero clashes.

 

Just in case the British want to know, we have television and the Internet here in the United States.

Keep it legal out there, ANSWERniks...

 

You're assuming that Americans have unity. The only time they do is when some awful tragedy occurs like 9/11. The rest of the time we basically either don't give a (*)(*)(*)(*) about each other or outright hate each other.

 

That's because the ' capitalist ethic', if you'll pardon the oxymoron, has been instilled in Americans to the detriment of morals. That's why moral Americans make such great writers and artists- they have survived and are in a position to teach and lead.

 

Anybody make it ?
