Protesting is often inconvenient for the status quo - that is sort of the point. I can understand the point about 99%'ers trying to get to work, but I would also ask for some solidarity. Personally I won't cross a picket line but I guess that view isn't so common in this country anymore.

Not that everything OWS does is perfect - disrupting the tv show in particular seemed a little over the top.
