One OWS DEMAND.
Stop doing harm to unarmed, peaceful citizens. Everything else can be negotiated, just like this was a REAL democracy.

3. As if. AS they are trying to ram home, this is a republic.
This emphisis is to try to roll back civil rights, to a time when only land owners get to vote. Their REAL agenda.

2. I just saw a vid on Up with Chris Hayes showing
students at UC Davis sitting in a line, holding hands, and cops walking up and down the line spraying them with pepper spray. As Hays said, someone mentioned it was like spraying cockroaches. It made me sick to my stomach.

If you can, watch the rerun of the show or catch it online because he had the Retired Philly Police Chief who was arrested at OWS.

"Corporate America is using their own police department as hired thugs."

4. It's online. I watched it last night.
It was ghastly. Reminded me of Bull Connor with the water hoses. Those cops are a$$holes. Sorry. They did not have to do that. In the end, they'll wind up on the wrong side of history, and some if them will regret what they did.

5. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I found myself thinking that
if we do accomplish anything, if real changes are made, that THOS MEMBERS of the 99% don't benefit.

I'd like to see them jailed.
