They've Burned The Constitution... Why Not The Flag ???

[think]

14. The words you just wrote are the outrage that needs to be expressed and understood

by ordinary Americans who are very uninformed. Finding the best ways to communicate this to them in a way that creates understanding and respect for ones cause is best illustrated by making the treatment by the OPD more evident.

Getting videos like this to go more viral will garner OWS much more support than any burnt flag ever will:

Creative signs will always be better understood as well:

“If only they enforced bank regulations like they do park rules, we wouldn’t be in this mess"

Quickly and concisely a message is conveyed that the uninformed person can understand because of the simplicity of the example given.

The burning of the flag is symbolic and understood by the persons involved but because the average American does not understand these issues nor the brutality of the police in this instance, the burning flag does not resonate the issues behind it to these people.

All they see is the defiance rather than the reason for the defiance. If the goal of OWS is to expose the corruption and gain public support for change then the message gets lost in the translation.

Sorry if this is talking circular.

Peace.
