2. If the situation gets bad I hope OWS dismantles that golden bull like Bushcorp. made a show of

dismantling the statues of Saddam Hussein.

Isn't Mammon a golden bull? LOL

3. Yeah, the whole point is that statue of Mammon on Wall St.
Where it irony apparently has escaped so many.
Not that I am of a religious nature, but still, most have heard the story of Mammon.

6. From the Bible
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can not serve both God and Mammon.
—Matthew 6:19-21,24

9. My interpretation, since I'm not religious......
Edited on Thu Oct-06-11 11:54 AM by Avalux
God represents our true selves; Mammon represents the distractions and material items (money) that prevent us from being our true selves.

We can have heaven here on earth, if we can put Mammon in its proper place.

5. Feh
This is being done to prevent photo-ops that might create viral images. They are worried about symbols getting latched onto in the media. I suggest bringing our own bulls. Maybe a golden calf.

8. Wall of Blue
This one was dubbed "Wall of Blue", posted before later NYC events last night



credit: http://twitpic.com/photos/buckyturco

Cryptome has a large archive of photos from around the country, posted over many days.
(Including one of the identifiable white-shirted police officer wielding his baton like a baseball bat at OWS NYC later in last night)

They are very large images, so I won't try to repost them. Maybe someone has time to resize some of them.

21. Man. That top photo is bound to be historical.
The symbolism in that is just too much.

4. K&R!
There is a solidarity march in my hometown this Friday that I'm going too. We have no financial district to protest at, but maybe we can bring some local media attention to the larger movement.

25. Man! That's a GREAT one!
But get 13 teabaggers together with a couple of lawn chairs and American flags and you have the lead story on the nightly news.
