OCCUPY gets out of hand

[Steamer]

What the fuck happened top the constitutional right for peaceful assembly? Oh yes... the lobbyist's beat them the fuck down like every other right.

Constitution broken all over, regardless.

Utter bullshit.

Hell... in my state law makers stole all the road funds and guess who has to fucking pay them back?! Me and every other tax paying fucking citizen. Pollo knows what im talkin bout.

I for one am fed up with all the bullshit, but there is no protesting organization with an agenda of what I like. If I had the funds and means to set one up myself I would.

I work and live within this bullshit every day. It's easy to make assumptions when you do not see it first hand.

In Baltimore there where no laws broken on the assembly, yet made to pack up anyway besides 2 per night. The government dick deepthroating from some people pisses me off so much.

I honestly wish this shit got very violent, maybe there would be some accelerated progress on the actual underlying cause.

Freedom of speech is not being taken away. You need a clear grasp on why police do what tthey do. There are laws for loitering, curfews, obstruction of noise, violent acts, vandalisim, litering, obstruction of traffic with out city permission. The list goes on, these people are breaking multiple laws and you say there having there freedom of speech taken away?

I think you misunderstood me. We're bouncing back and forth between two subjects here. I'm not suggesting that our "freedom of speech" is being taken away because of this flashbang incident. I'm talking about something else. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm referring to the people that think this movement is stupid and that these people have no place to be complaining and protesting at all. I'm just saying that whether or not you agree with their cause, if a group of people think they see this country becoming more and more unjust that it's their duty as Americans to make their voices heard and they they shouldn't be dismissed so easily. I'm just saying that our soldiers die every day to make sure we have this right and if someone is going to give their life for this right, then we better make the most of it.

You have some idiots in Oakland and other part of the country that take all the media attention because they act stupid and then people associate EVERYONE with these morons, but sorry. I didn't mean to give the impression that this "freedom of speech" rant had anything to do with the flashbang incident.

To be clear: I'm not suggesting ALL that our freedom is speech is being taken away. I'm suggesting that our freedom is speech is something not to be taken for granted. So many other countries suffer more than we do and don't have this privilege so we should use it when we think there is a cause. There are millions, if not billions of people that wish they had this right, and I think when they see us using these rights, it gives them hope and gives us more worldwide respect.

I don't think you have a clear understanding of what a lobbyist is. A lobbist didn't give to ducks about what the out come of legislation or stokes or any other thing is. His job is to get payed to convince another to do somthing in favor of who ever hired the lobbyist to begin with. If you want to argue how to fix the gov, getting rid of lobbyists isn't the right way. Even if you outlawed the proffesion CEOs and congress man would still "lobby" them selves. America is capitalism and that is one of several reasons we are the greatest country in the world. To attempt to give the gov more power and turn our nation into a socialist fiasco is completly absurd.

You are right on what a lobbyist is. What does capitalism usually lead to Mikey? Think about it... What the attempt is, is to take power back from the government and the rich people that are seated in it for their own greed. This shit has all happened before... Will happen again... Just a matter of when... Then repeated again, and again, and again. People and power roles get out of hand and shit needs to be put back in place or will implode. Nothing new.

IDK about you, but I'd rather be able to self sustain than have shit fed to me by a fucking government. I can do shit on my own, by myself, I am my own fucking man, I don't need to be forced and told what to do by another.
