lol
....so OWS is a corporation?
Why don’t they just get Bammy to issue a fatwa?
I vote for the former.
Whatever.
Hypocrites.
The police car poopers are probably wondering what their cut will be. LOL
They’ll take their cut in weed.
One of the OWS bigwigs landed a nice 6 figure job with google and then turned on OWS.
Stupidity hurts. Anarchistic stupidity hurts even worse.
I was hoping someone had put Nelson Muntz up for this one. YOu have to love a good leftie catfight - “Why can’t they all just get along” LOL
As I dimly recall, Occupy Wall Street wasn’t organized per se, but a bunch of so-called 99 percenters who probably needed a little cash and were paid, possibly from constitutionally indefensible Stimulus Programs funds, to take up space on sidewalks in rain and snow and tell their friends to watch them on CNN, hoping that their friends wouldn’t ask them what they were doing there.
Otherise, OWS wasn’t necessarily organized imo.
Somebody please refresh my memory.
The real “movement” includes all kinds of people from left to right, so conflicts are no surprise. Chaos.
I’d pay to watch!
The OWS organizers and their culture of anarchy have proved they are worthy of the road apples of history cleanup clowns.
Having been living in DC when Occupy was ‘hot’....I went and visited the DC site. What I came to realize quickly...there were two sites...about half-a-mile from each other.
Site A, was run by a bunch of young college-degreed punks (one block north of White House). No toilets, no organization, no support structure. They had someone or some group that took up the job of media control and making statements...but I got the impression that this was just a middle-person and someone was jerking their chain on statements. I noted various local news and international news teams interviewing this crowd.
Site B? Run by a bunch of 1960s/1970s-style hippies. Nobody was under the age of 30. They were a block east of the White House. They had toilets, water, organization. A lot less interviewing going on....mostly all international crews...no CBS or NBC type units operating there. They were fairly courteous...and more detailing than the site A crowd.
The big picture? Site B had no health issues, and the cops didn’t have many issues with their site. Site A with the young punks? Overrunning with mice and rats, unhealthy, and they were noted on numerous occasions doping up on the big stuff (crack, cocaine, et). The neighborhood around Site A was a health-mess and business operations were begging the city police to do something to clean up the mess.
So, they operated like this for months, and then one day...the city kinda told site A punks that they’d have to dismantle their site, and join up with site B (they’d allow them to continue there). Then, the whole mess started to just dissolve. The two groups couldn’t work together...because they were on separate agendas, and I suspect the young crowd were losing enthusiasm for their cause.
You could write a book over the two groups...they were like night and day.
