(34,058 posts)Always. We have seen it over and over and over again. I have high hopes for Occupy. Let it slide. You all are doing a great thing.
Did my time many years ago and am not in the position to be able to do much of this now or I would drag my old ass somewhere there was a movement.
The one in my city sounded off right away that they did not intend to cause trouble and would cooperate with whatever they were told, said with their hands in the air to journalists, not even cops. They gave up the game before it started. I think nobody bothered after that but I live in a city where nobody does much of anything. Some of us do it all, same people and we are tired.
You have my heart and my respect and my gratitude for all you all are doing and risking. Stay true and don't worry about all the crap, as hard as that is, don't let it get to you or you will lose your perspective. You all are right and you all have started a dialog that would never have happened without you. Let the wall come, smash yourself up against it and then climb that fucker (sorry about the language, we have a big rally here tomorrow for something else and I am quite angry at the moment). I have more hope now than I have had in many years because of this movement and the effect it has already had.
