Dear God, this post on we are the 99% hurt like a kick to the gut
" I am 49 years old. I was arrested on false charges based on hearsay.
My boss fired me and I was forced to move in with my 70-something yr. old parents.
They have two mortgages on their home because they couldn't pay medical bills.
My daughter and son cry daily because I committed suicide 4 months ago."

We are the 99%

2. What - is it some sort of crime to kill yourself and
Then go protest?

Are protests only for the living! (I've seen enough Freddie Krueger movies to know that's not the case!)

Next you'll be saying that the hundreds of millions the Koch Bros have distributed to keep RW politicians in office is also negatory.

4. I suspect his parents posted this posthumously
Go to the site and you see his photograph. That is what is so powerful about the site, there are faces attached to the stories.

We have to do something to change this countrys course.
