How ironic. They're supposedly protesting income inequality (or whatever the claim is this week) but they can't use *donated* food and tents to help people who don't have homes to go back to.

Any proof of that part? That is not only "people" meant, but specifically people who don't have homes to go back to?

Who the fuck has something to say about this ? Stockbrokers ? Politicians ? Pretty boys on the fucking news ?

Doesn't really matter if they have homes or not, Maybe it's time someone donated something fucking useful, like LAWS rockets or some incindiaries. Let's get the show on the road.

Yeah, I have no rights now because someone once gave me a pair of gloves. Right.

ETA : Mow they want to come in and monitor protesters ? Gimme a fucking break. Before I would........... never mind.

How is it that you come to this discussion so ill preared. If you do not know the goals of ows by now when do you think you might acquainte yourself with them?
If this food and shelter was donated to ows then isn't it up to ows to decide how to disburse it? So unless you are part of an ows stearing committee then your opinion on how the donations are parceled out is just that an unsubstantiated ignorant opinion

I know, I know. Crazy isn't it?

Is it your position that there are no republicrats in the ows movement?

They are protesting themselves.

It might help if you were to come to the discussion with some knowledge of the discssion. The ows people are not protesting the demopubs but the 1% who control 95% of the pie.

The 99 per centers are stupid, ignorant, ill informed unionists/communists/radicals


The ignorant,ill informed unionist, communists and radicals seem to know quite a bit more than you.

And what will you do if that black man is made president for another four years?
Why does it offend you so much to have a black man for president?

Ya know what we're 'keeping in mind'? That this is about as long a post as we're even willing to read from a guy who eats soft food and goes out to the highway and raves shit at passing cars

How about this: when they get one clear-cut message and endgame in ind, I'll know what it is. If they don't know, I can only go by what's in the news. And what's in the news makes the story I quoted terribly ironic.

So we need proof that the homeless are homeless? Have you been living under a rock or what?

And this is what makes the story equated so ironic. We have one group protesting the "1%" that's holds "95% of the pie," but the protesters themselves are controlling the resources at their camps and turning away the homeless who they should be welcoming into their ranks.

The beauty part is that they aren`t under control of a party or corporation,PAC,think-tank or political outfit and don`t take orders.

They aren`t for sale,can`t be bought and aren`t leaving.

They don`t need to pretend to be something else, as the Ts did and aren`t going to be told what to do or how to do it.

And millions of examples for cons not giving a damm about America`s homeless.
