81. I agree grammy

but these idiots are getting a lot of press, not being brutalized by cops (yet) and many other things that we didn't accomplish with #Occupy.
Maybe if we had legally armed (gun permits) Progressive protestors (with definite goals..ie. net neutrality, greatly increased minimum wage, wealth equality, legislating money out of politics, etc.) who kept their weapons holstered but refused to be brutalized (not by brandishing their weapons, IMO the greatly increased press coverage would prevent a lot of the police brutality), we could get much more accomplished than we did with the original #Occupy protests.
IDK, I see (on every channel) these tea baggers getting free publicity for their idiotic "cause" (keeping Koch-like assholes free from government regulation) and I wonder how we Progressives could get this exposure legally.
Polling shows that the majority of Americans are Progressive in their desires, hopefully IF we could get this kind of coverage legally without being beaten and arrested (effective dissuasion by TPTB) we may be able to get like-minded Americans to Unite and work
together to bring Democracy to America.
