1. Can you imagine what would happen if we showed up armed
like those right wing nutcases did?

They really aren't fit to run a Burger King Drive Thru window.

2. Yeah, the cops would probably kill an OWS'er and claim self defense saying they
threatened them. Like Kent State, same SH**.

In my experience what represents good in America is always a very very very long uphill battle.

3. Well... to be fair... there have to be masses for a mass arrest.
ba-dum-bum.

I hear ya though. And even though there weren't masses they got tons of coverage. More than the 100,000 strong anti-war protests.

AND they have had a huge influence on the GOP. How much do you think OWS will influence the Dems?

4. Which in itself proves which side they're on.
They're mad as hell and going with the flow.

We, on the other hand, have a legitimate purpose. Which just so happens to go against those with the big money.

5. I don't think many tea parties have taken a shit on a police car
