So, the other topic got closed for a second time because posters were going off-topic.

Thanks for the links .

I'm heading to a protest today in my local city .

The problem I see with this protest is , how many protesters are still living "inside" the system it's fighting against ? We can't fight against something from the inside , that we are still financially supporting . I think it's wonderful and a good start , that these protests are gaining momentum . However , it needs to grow and morph into a larger REAL anti banking movement . A movement to get outside the box., the only way to truly fight it .

I think about it like this . How many of those protesters have mortgages ? How many have car loans ? How many drive foreign made cars ? Student loans ? To me the protests are meaningless unless the movement takes a fundamental next step and actively promotes defaulting and getting outside the "mainstream" system . It would have to become literally a " tent city " of homeless people to grow and grow boycotting big business and global banking cartels . We can protest all we want , noting will change unless there is a fundamental shift in our collective consciousness and really begin fighting against this tyranny , through non financial support of big business and banking cartels . The only thing at this point that can bring them down is money , rather lack of it . While I support these protests whole heartedly as beginning steps to waking sleeping " citizens" up , unfortunately I think it will end in failure . Especially if labor unions are allowed to participate .

How many people are really ready to get out of the box ? How many are really ready to give up creature comforts , and everything they have worked so hard to obtain ? How many have the intestinal fortitude to leave society and all their material possessions ? For this movement to really succeed and have real impact , that's what has to happen . And how many are really ready to endure that hardship upon themselves ? Not many, I'm afraid . We built this tyrannous government piece by piece through the usury of big banks . Through money to obtain material possessions and the fake bullshit " American dream" . We were so occupied with " keeping up with the Jone's , we lost track of the banking cartels we built and the big business that has sprung up around them . That's now running the world , and dictating their rules to our government .

We underestimate the enemy we face . Protesting while still feeding that enemy is useless . He must be starved out and cut off monetarily . Anything short of that and we are just pissing in the wind ! The truth is most American's just don't care ! They're content being led back into bondage and slavery , with every link of the chain , they forge for themselves . Link by link , like sheep being led to the slaughter . The only true motivator for change left for them is starvation , which now won't be far off .

It's a great start , and I'm attending in my city .

 

CNN actually did a pretty good story on the protests here;

What part of the forum is the Part II thread in?

I'm trying to find this on St. Louis news to verify. The link to the youtube video says it's private.

Update- I did get the video to work through this link
http://video.godlikeproductions.com...g_Customer_Withdrawals?id=0d97e662a32f63a8490

 

I saw that too, also the occupytogether.org site is down...

 

There was also a story about the st louis thing on godlikeproductions, but its gone...

 

I think someone recycled a story from last year about protests in st louis

 

Hmmm....Well, hopefully verification about when that was will come forth.

 

The posters on godlike are now saying that video was from an August 13th incident.

unfortunatelu, i've found my local Occupy group to be a bunch of butthurt pansies on power-trips. Hopefully things will progress more at our meeting on thurs.

(Lyrics)

They can take our money
They can take our homes
They can steal the future
Mortage our souls

Occupy the politicians mind
Buy the truth and sell us lies

But there's a rising on wall street
I am you and you are me
We are the 99%'ers
On the right side of love and history

It's hard to say where it went wrong
Decades before me and this song
Through the banksters and the wars
You know I just can't take it anymore

There's a rising on wall street
I am you and you are me
We are the 99%'ers
On the right side of love and history
