Occupy Wall Street

[moreluck]

Yeah, that's kinda falsh. The movement and idea started here in Vancouver, but the protests itself started on Wall Street directly (following the Vancouver idea/plan, that is)

Kinda falsh ??? Yeah, fits your posting style.............

Violence in Rome as protests against corporate greed go global

ROME - Protesters in Rome smashed shop windows and torched cars as violence broke out during a demonstration in the Italian capital, part of worldwide protests against corporate greed and austerity measures.
The "Occupy Wall Street" protests that began in Canada and spread to cities across the U.S. moved Saturday to Asia and Europe, linking up with anti-austerity demonstrations that have raged across the debt-ridden continent for months

I'll watch the local news at 6 tonight... but as much as I know Canada, the city will provide porta potties for the demo. Don't see a problem there.
We already have some nice permanent ones set up all year around anyways.... for those (mostly bar go'ers at night), and it worked !

Besides, I been to Sir Winston Churchill Square (downtown Edmonton), they have several washrooms there, some underground, and really nice and well maintained.

"Hmmm.... Where can we get pointers on how to be really annoying and to get the most reward for as little effort as possible?"

I drove by our local "Occupy Plattsburgh" event on my way to the movies. There were about 150 people there holding signs and listening to a speaker.

 

[klein]

I just checked facebook, Occupy Plattsburgh, has 137 "likes" meaning they all showed up !

We have 2400 "likes" here.. I guess I know what to expect.

11000 like Toronto, only 2300 in Vancouver.

Kinda neat to know what's happening in advance

You do know that Facebook is not real life.

Yeah, they just announced all that on FOX.

Well, just finished watching the news. Occupy Canada went down peacefully. However in Toronto they have set up tents and camping gear, like in NY.
Normal people like you and I out there, just complaining about the ever growing gap between the rich and middleclass.

Occupy protests on Prairies draw hundreds; crowd includes seniors, children

I would like to personally thank those Occupy Wall Street people. They have shined a light on the real people who committed fraud and have escaped any responsibility. Remember in the 1980s with the Savings and Loan crisis, over 1000 bankers went to jail. As of today none of the Wall St scum have gone to jail, yet. I would have to blame the "Tea Party" loons for changing the conversation away from who is responsible for our economic crisis to "Obama is a Kenyan-born, socialist who hates America and wants to kill your grandma!" The Tea party were useful idiots used by the true backers and funders of the Tea party: the Koch Brothers , Dick Armey, etc.

It certainly is about time someone besides Ralph Nader said stop the gross greed of the financial and corporate elite. We have to stop their political puppets corrupted by these corporate greed heads that have turned their backs on the poor and middle class. It is about time we had a little rage against the machine against the plutocratic bastards in an unjust economy and unresponsive politics.

It is time to hit the streets when 1% of the people own over 90% of the net worth in this country!! When its ok for teachers, cops , firefighters, postal workers and union jobs in general to join the ranks of the unemployed. When it is ok to have roads , bridges, schools, etc to crumble or close. When it is ok to throw people out of their homes because of dishonest bankers. When stuff like this occurs it is ok because profits are up at Goldman Sachs or Exxon Mobil or UPS!!

Folks this movement has to continue. It is already spreading to other cities throughout the country. I even heard people in Cairo are ordering pizzas online to send via local NYC pizza parlors to the OWS people!!

Brothers and sisters, to stand on the sidelines and just watch is to be complicit with what is going on!! When OWS comes to a downtown near you, get out and join them. The corporate forces fear this will spread. And they are right. Today the young people in the streets were joined by thousands of union workers!! It was amazing to watch construction workers and Teamsters march side by side with 20 year olds with purple hair and 70 year old grannies for peace. There is hope!! Enough is Enough!!

lets keep this short............' GROW UP '

[Babagounj]

klein I see that you have moved your stupidity from Current Events to here.
(1) you are now a venture capitalist (ie, your growing pushcart business ) so being here in Union Issues is another falsehood that you present.
(2) and who that heck wants to hear what a fired for drinking on the job ex-employee who is always complaining about how dangerous and bad the USA is has to say.

 

[klein]

I think that is up to "804brown" who created this thread, and NOT YOU, Baba !

 

[Babagounj]

Gee whiz kiddo, you have tried to hijack every thread possible and NOW you are concerned about who has the authority to ask you to stop.

I have goodnews for your OWS supporters. You now have the full support and sympathy of both the Nazi Party and the Communist Party!
