70. And that page shows the Pro Choice rally. Are you accusing them of holding a Pro Choice

Thu Feb 2, 2012, 11:21 PM

Feb 2012

rally? I see no school, no girls, not condoms, no one throwing condoms at school girls. The other side in this rally was not 'school girls' they were anti choice protesters.
And so you post a link that shows Pro Choice people. Is that what you think is so wrong?

Classy. AtomicKitten Feb 2012 #1

Pro-liars promote inequality and should be shouted down. The condoms were a bit too much I agree. REP Feb 2012 #2

But, why Occupy? pintobean Feb 2012 #9

Maybe some might to be with the OWS. They might just be looking for trouble and want the OWS southernyankeebelle Feb 2012 #31

You don't understand Occupy. morningfog Feb 2012 #143

And how do we know they were really in OWS? xfundy Feb 2012 #3

Occupy Providence planned it and has a Facebook link up about it Yo_Mama Feb 2012 #24

Thank you pintobean Feb 2012 #57

I really don't understand the big controversy here, though Yo_Mama Feb 2012 #106

No one disputes that they held a Pro Choice rally to counter an Anti Choice rally. Bluenorthwest Feb 2012 #135

That's why so many people were telling Occupy to get a manifesto. napoleon_in_rags Feb 2012 #4

You mean, this kind of thing like spreading Faux News all over EFerrari Feb 2012 #14

I don't understand, are you saying this is fake news? napoleon_in_rags Feb 2012 #79

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. EFerrari Feb 2012 #86

It's almost surprising there wasn't napoleon_in_rags Feb 2012 #99

Um, we check the sourcing of a story? EFerrari Feb 2012 #35

I'm different because I consider the source MNBrewer Feb 2012 #160

Do you have a valid source for this? Warren Stupidity Feb 2012 #12

Business Insider has been used as a source here pintobean Feb 2012 #15

do you think this article is good? Enrique Feb 2012 #20

Business Insider is not the source. girl gone mad Feb 2012 #100

This is what the Faux News story is meant to cover up: EFerrari Feb 2012 #13

Keep reading from your own source pintobean Feb 2012 #16

No way that this story passes the smell test. This reeks of disinformation. n/t Joe Shlabotnik Feb 2012 #26

Homeless have a place to go, now. Is the significance of that lost on the OP? (nt) (nr) T S Justly Feb 2012 #33

It is and that's a shame. Anything to smear OWS, I suppose. SammyWinstonJack Feb 2012 #152
