The #OccupyWallStreet Megathread - Post all new updates here - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Chicken_Chaser;32721627]At occupy Oklahoma city. Kind of too dark for pictures. Will post images if I feel like it etc.[/QUOTE] There were two men in suits laughing at us. They'll get theirs when people march to the bank tomorrow. Idiots at school know nothing of walstreet and when we explain to them they say shit like "hurr theyre lazy need to stop complaining" One idiot said derp i work at Braums and I live well and I'm like dude you live with your fucking parents. I gave examples of why shit is fucked etc and how if anything it's his duty as a fellow countryman, no matter you party of choice, to protest. He raged. [img]http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-eng99.gif[/img] At least this weekend I know a lot of people will go to the occupation. There's a lot of interesting people there. Lots of cannabis too. :) I really hope I don't sound like an outcast-hipster faggot because I assure that I'm not. :v: Can't help but feel out of place when most people are saying you're an idiot for supporting this.

[QUOTE=Glaber;32722521]Okay, I got an article to back up that number 2 on a 911.

From what I'm hearing, this Occupy movement is making no effort to clean up anything.[/QUOTE] First, Daily mail Second, that's ONE guy. Third, the next two pictures are entirely misleading. Second image is trash on the side of the street where they come to collect the rubbish. Have you seen New York City streets? There are piles of trash to be collected. It's common. Third image: is not garbage, it's sleeping bags and personal items.

A lot of people are also saying that the image seems to be set up.

I can understand why you guys are doing this but theres now an occupy auckland here in New Zealand. Which I think is stupid as fuck.

[QUOTE=Stormcharger;32724167]I can understand why you guys are doing this but theres now an occupy auckland here in New Zealand. Which I think is stupid as fuck.[/QUOTE] Then don't show up to the protests.

[QUOTE=Stormcharger;32724167]I can understand why you guys are doing this but theres now an occupy auckland here in New Zealand. Which I think is stupid as fuck.[/QUOTE] The entire western world has similar problems in different degrees. New Zealand is far from perfect.

[QUOTE=Zeke129;32724401]The entire western world has similar problems in different degrees. New Zealand is far from perfect.[/QUOTE] It may not be perfect but the problems aren't nearly on the same scale as in America. Im friends with people who are in the top 1% ie one of them is in the 3rd richest family of my country and their family is there because they worked hard, not because they are greedy and corrupt.

Your country has 4 million people. Of course its problems are no where near scale.

[QUOTE=Nikota;32724462]Your country has 4 million people. Of course its problems are no where near scale.[/QUOTE] Which is why I think the protesting is silly in my country

You're also friends with a bunch of rich kids.

Or do you still deny the photographic proof?[/QUOTE] What is the point? Even if one of the guys did shit on a police car, how does that in any way discredit the movement as a political force? It probably discredits that guy, but why would you look at that and say "hey you know, this guy shit on a police car, I don't know if I can support the other thousands of protesters"?

So Fox News Radio, a guy on there said "I have photos of a guy there pooping on a cop car, yeah they're nothing like the Tea Party" Implying the Tea Party is glorious. god I hate how Fox News is making the whole protest seems like it's just savages.

Been helping out with Occupy Dallas on and off since its first day on the 6th. First day had a good number of people come to it and the protesting was pretty strong at that point. Had a lot of people donate food, water and supplies. I'm pretty sure there were 20+ full size tents donated, tons of tarps and other shit like that too. Sorry, don't feel like going through 29 pages, anybody else here helping out at some of them?

Just back from Occupy Boston. Was 10k strong, police came with 200 members in riot gear and started arresting people. I got hit in the face and knocked on my ass but I booked it through the line. They're circling that park in fences now, so I guess nobody can use it.
