Funny these protesters will spend money at Starbucks plunk down money for the latest I pod or I pad making those CEO’s filthy rich but begrudge others who they feel do not deserve the money just seems hypocritical to me.

I know. I laughed when I saw them using a generator to power their Apple lap tops, and texting on their iphones. I wonder how stupid can people be. Even the homeless in Santa Barbara are making fun of them. Oh, and they were camped out right in front of a STBX and Pete’s Coffee.

Then stop eating those Soros-SEIU sandwiches and start a business.

Liberals think that someone stole what they never earned.

B.S. The tea party does not represent communism. We should have one thing in common though. Putting crooked Wall street bankers in Jail. But for different reasons than this group.

This is an excellent comment (minus the “tards”) and would make great bumper stickers for us all.

Greed is a charge that bankrupted Europe. Just because we sold that greed isn’t our charge.

They are also using products like Google, Twitter, and Facebook.

I’m sure companies owned by poor people.

Idiots who think that they are intelligent are the most insufferable.

Does this idiot even know what happened at the post modern second Woodstock ? Young women were knocked unconscious and gang raped by gang bangers right in front of their beaten senseless boy friends. The MTV commentators had to flee the event for their safety right in the middle of the live broadcast.

So how many days until these post modern occupiers begin tearing up Wall Street ?

They fear the Tea Party, precisely because they fear retribution for their crimes.

The pictures of the trash they accumulate within their living areas should be a clue that they represent nothing but anti-social views.

According to the media, a few thousand retro hippies on Wall Street are more significant than 2 million Tea Partiers in Washington DC. Hippie fests drawing hundreds across the country are more significant than Tea Parties that draw tens of thousands. (Roll eyes), how lucky we are to have such wise guardians of truth and wisdom looking out for us.

David Weidner tells Mean Street’s Evan Newmark bankers, not the protesters, are the ones who should have been arrested on Wall Street.

If the MSM wanted to do a story worth reading they could talk to some of the participants - not the 'spokespeople'.

When CNN does Tea Party interviews they do their best to find someone who might say something extreme... of course they fail. They should do the same with this group.

The group has gained support among some union members. The United Federation of Teachers and the Transport Workers Union Local 100, which has 38,000 members, are among those pledging solidarity.

The unions could provide important organizational and financial support for the largely leaderless movement.

“The one thing we all have in common is that We Are The 99% that will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption of the 1%,” said a statement on the website Occupy Wall Street.

According to statements on the website, the movement, an offshoot of online magazine AdBusters, is angered by what it calls the principle of “profit over and above all else,” which it says has dominated not only America’s economic policies, but also the way in which Americans view culture and humanity.

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2011/09/occupy-wall-street-movement-reports-80-arrested-today-in-protests/

“History teaches us that when the rich get too rich and the poor get too poor there is always a revolution. Let’s hope this is the start of change!” wrote a reader with the username “Takebackourgovernment” on the movement’s website today.

Takebackourgovernment is affiliated with Endurance International in Canada
