    Here is a current event happening at 7pm today, 2/29/12 (leap day). It takes place at my college, IPFW. It has a live feed. Not sure if it will be available later. So, if you are lurking around and have time to "waste"... http://www.wane.com/subindex/video/video_01 Sorry for the short notice...

    We disagree about OWS, let's leave it at that...

    I see the 'Occupy Wall Street Better Defend it's Identity' thread is still going and I think maybe it's best to put this issue to rest by saying we're going to disagree with the purpose, efforts, and demeanor of the Occupy movement. I know that I kicked and screamed, and huffed and puffed at a...

    Occupy Wall Street Violence...

    After watching several videos related to OWS violence and following the trails of people who like to complain about such trivial nonsense as "littering in the streets", "improper hygiene", and what real "losers" these people are, I have noticed a pattern in the violence and I'm sure this won't...

    "Family Guy" Writer Recounts Police Brutality at Occupy LA

    My Occupy LA Arrest, by Patrick Meighan But, I suppose they all deserved it, for disobeying the police when they were told to disperse.

    Many Wall St insiders agree with OWS.

    On Wall Street, Some Insiders Express Quiet Outrage Hope that is not quoting too much. It was such a great article that I strongly recommend reading it. Plenty of good information of what is going on and what people have observed.

    Congrats, Occupiers -- You ARE the 1%!

    I've had about enough of the Occupy Whatever street theater. I really have. And I agree with most of the mainstream ideas these folks are pushing. We've legislated our way into an unhealthy wealth disparity, the pay gap between execs and workers is too large, a very small number of people...

    Need Help Confirming the Premise

    Okay, I have two premises Premise 1: I think this Occupy movements are astroturf -- it's just a larger scale and left-wing version of the tea-baggers. How do you confirm this premise?: Premise 2: Astroturfing is being increasingly used as a tool of political control whereby powerful interests...

    Interesting Facts Regarding Occupy Wall Street

    Ed 9/11 Truth Infiltrates the Occupy Wall Street Movement

    I think this has come up before. Occupy Phoenix Joined by AE911Truth Action Group In Vancouver, one of my favorite Truther nuts was on Youtube expressing his solidarity Y-k_oPJ01wM This may have something to do with the decision that led to a 9/11 Truther being blocked from speaking. From the FB...

    Things Occupy Wall Street activists should demand

    Rather than knock on them for their many faults. Let's get to the meat of what they should be demanding if they wanted to do something about what they are mad about. End agricultural subsidies. Cut DOD spending 20%. Close corporate tax loopholes. Subsidize state universities to close tuition...

    My Occupy Wall Street Protest Speech, in Dallas

    So I can't make it all the way to NY, but luckily there's a protest in both Dallas and Ft. Worth. I've been watching the live streaming video (http://www.livestream.com/globalrevolution), and it looks like a lot of fun, at least for an afternoon. I contacted the ground crew in Dallas, and...

    Who knew zombies would go political?

    Yeah, when the "occupy things in the name of protesting corporate malfeasance" movement came to my locality they decided to give it a Halloween theme. Thus a Walking Dead meets political activist fusion thing happened. I don't know if I should be proud my locality did it so different or afraid...

    Occupy Wall Street Protests Evolved From Magazine Appeal

    NY 'Occupy Wall Street' Protests Evolved from Magazine Appeal So the question is will this fact be used to argue that the movement was caused by foreign sources (even though these foreigners are Canadian) and thus could be considered subversion, thus justifying stamping them and their...

    Occupy Wall St.'s drumbeat grows louder Here's some of those who have heard: Former Sen. Feingold was one of the most liberal Senators and has generally fought for working class people, so I'm not surprised at his remarks. On the other hand, there's those who don't get it: Yes, they...

    Cain: Wall St. protesters playing victim card

    A proposed demand list from Occupy Wall Street

    http://occupywallst.org/forum/proposed-list-of-demands-for-occupy-wall-st-moveme/ The first suggestion is crazy. Free trade is a force for good, and it seems a bit inconsistent to oppose it while simultaneously favoring free immigration. And a minimum wage at 20 dollars an hour is insane! Lots...

    Occupy Wall Street better defend its identity

    Be careful of special interest groups hijacking the message. That's what happened to the Tea Party leading them to be co-opted into the Fox News GOP. Even if people show up who you agree with on some political issue, ask yourselves if that issue is actually related to what the protest is about...
