7. +1. Leave our porcine brothers and sisters alone. n/t

2. The world would be entertained!

It's Halloween time so masks are available

[gateley]

3. I think they look scary (as well they should, knowing who

they represent!) -- kind of Lord of the Flies-ish. :scared:

[flamingdem]

6. Yes, it would be upsetting if they starting rooting in the garbage and such!

But it would get air time, very valuable!

[gateley]

8. Agree! And something a little different than the good folks

out there pounding the pavement. Variety, you know. :)

[flamingdem]

11. hmm. Might be fun to go to an Occupy site for Halloween!

If I do the pig costume I'll send pix

[gateley]

16. Do! I bet nobody will ask "what are you supposed to be?" :-) nt

4. Four legs good, two legs bad

[reACTIONary]

5. Everyone is equal...

...but some are more equal than others!

12. Is there any Occupy going on in Vermont?

A tribute to Ethan Allen perhaps at one of his Forts or something? A barn somewhere?

[ThirdEye]

17. Yes

There may be more going on than what I observed but I saw a group walk around the Burlington Farmer's Market a few weekends ago. It was a bit comical, in a good way, as they were passionately singing "Who's street? Our street!" as if they needed to convince us. You would be hard pressed to find anyone there who doesn't agree wholeheartedly.

Things might have changed now that the whole movement has grown so significantly.

13. It's illegal for 2 or more people to wear masks while protesting in New York...

15. I know. Fantasy. nt

[Manifestor_of_Light]

14. Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode. Eye of the Beholder.

Eye of the Beholder.
Remember Donna Douglas having surgery so she would "fit in"????

Most profound thing I've ever seen on TV. And I was a little kid.

18. Halloween is just around the corner. You may get your wish.

19. Everywhere there's lots of piggies living piggie lives

You can find them out for dinner with their piggie wives
Clutching forks and knives
To eat their bacon...
