Anyone switching to a credit union with what's going on?

The day you call protests mere foolishness and deliberate provocation is the day you spit on America.

Where's the provocation?

Are you comparing the Occupy protestors with the civil rights movement?

[o.pwuaioc]

Sigh, if you're going to deliberately misread what I said, should I even bother responding to you?

[Hatta]

Any police officer who wants really wants to demonstrate their bravery should refuse orders to break up peaceable assemblys. Any such orders are illegal anyway.

I don't really care whether you think the protesters are misguided or not, they are engaging in constitutionally protected free speech. Nothing they have done warrants this kind of violence, there's no way to describe it other than oppression.

Edit: Popo, is there a reason why we shouldn't compare Occupy to the Civil Rights movement?

Of course, taken out of context and twisted... what I expected really.

Except the guys who broke into a building and refused to leave.

You were the one who misread him first.

Does that justify nationwide campaign of violent suppression?

Oh, wait, I'm talking to Popo. A campaign of violent suppresion needs no justification.

[Inazuma]

Then send it over a PM. I won't ban you for it.

Nope. I would just be wasting my time talking to you via PMs. You have zero consideration for others and absolutely no desire to improve things. I wish I could talk some sense into you, but I honestly don't believe I can do it. My only hope is that one day you get seriously fucked up by some corrupt bullshit and decide on your own that it sucks and you want to do something about it. Until then, you will remain part of the problem.

Despite being my "least favorite" person on this forum, I wish you no harm. I just hope that someday your heart goes from jet black to more of a dark gray color.

Exactly. The fact that many police departments are grossly overreacting to OWS speaks volumes about the state of free speech more than anything else. Let me just ask this, has anything the protestors have done warrant the police firing tear gas grenades at them or getting pepper spray down their throats (which actually happened at UC Davis)? I think not.

Please please please please please please please PLEASE point to me where "these protestors" try to get sprayed.
