  • I would love to find out who donated the long sleeved t-shirts, I think it is a play on words . . . I am a revolting (as an awful) citizen. LOL

  • time to  go on home kids, you fake protest is a epic failure

  • @100crawma lol what a cunt

  • @94Cioppa wow did you come up with that brilliant gem all by yourself

  • @100crawma lol

  • These are not just "hippies"....these are regular working people, just like all of you. They simply are protesting the decisions of our government what whatnot...you guys take things too far.

  • @infinite2679 yeah sure ,reg. people who are robbing and raping each other, so much so that you had to set up a womens only tent

  • @100crawma well you should be used to that...i mean that all happened in your own home im sure :P

  • I'm all for freedom and the right to voice one's opinion. But c'mon guys, look at these people! They're not even people, they're hippy, alarmist, treasonous, traitorous Liberals who would side for anything as long as it put them on opposite sides to the USA. What we need is a damn good war and a draft introduced to give these damn hippy liberals a reason to live. This protest on Wall street disgusts me, and I feel embarrassed they call themselves Americans. God bless the USA.

  • @angels77100 You know how to keep these people occupied and keep them from protesting? Giving them jobs in the field that they went to university for, and paying them reasonable wages with job security. Does that sound better than some kind of war on "hippies"?

  • @SuperEpicWin I've never suggested that we go 'to war' against these hippies. I did not say that. Regardless of their apparent hatred of America, they are still American citizens. I suggested that a major war with a draft in place would soon sort these people out. Get them all drafted to fight for their country in a positive way instead of disrupting the lives of decent Americans who are trying to work and have to put up with this nonsense everyday.

  • @angels77100 Neo-cons surely have an inverted view of reality. I'd prefer that we drop you off in the middle of Afghanistan with a credit card. Landing on your head might do you some good. The bullshyte occupying it right now just stinks up American. Go to hell -- and don't forget to bulldoze the American kids exercising their Constitutional rights on the way; it will make your accommodations in hell more prestigious.

  • @yowzee Are you seriously suggesting that 'hippies' protesting and disrupting the lives of hard working American citizens is somehow 'admirable'? I don't give a damn what they're protesting against, but when it starts to conflict with the day-to-day work schedule of the working citizen, that's where I draw the line. Why don't these damn useless Liberal hippies protest against the Blacks or Hispanic gangs that are giving our great nation a bad name? God bless the USA and keep us strong.

  • @angels77100 What a racist moron you are. You rather prefer to kiss the banksters asses by scapegoating minorities for the crisis caused by greed of the 1%. At least the protestors have valor and include all people of many backgrounds. And please do not be an idiot,there is white gangs too.

  • @MrElsociopata I could care less what you say buddy. Go live with the unwashed, pathetic hippies as they wallow in their own filth. I actually support our constitutional right to practise free speech. But these hippies are going to far. This ain't no Goddam Woodstock, these people are putting lives at risk, including their own. Plus they are adding excessive pressure on our already overworked Police Officers who have to protect them. And I'm not racist, how dare you assume that!

  • @angels77100 Hey dinosaur, the hippies were from the '60s. Get your crinkled face out of your ass. God isn't in there.

  • @angels77100 I didn't realize dinosaurs had a god, too. Go bury yourself. Your flesh is already rotted.

  • All Places Should Have A Union!

  • he said occupy wall street damn straight we are!

  • I guess we will see how organized they are when winter hits. This thing will be dead by Christmas. I'm sure they are running low on weed and going through XBOX withdrawal.

  • Time to turn earth into a massive school of health,,,healing,,,and celebration...FUCK JOBS....I have worked 15 years straight and have nothing but indigestion from 16 hour shifts.......Occupy the whole planet and have a ongoing reggae party with free herb,,and multitudes of workshops teaching the arts of true life,,the system is hell...

  • stop voting for walking shit in suits......VOTE DAMIEN MARLEY PRESIDENT 2012......Rasta Regime HA!!!

  • @infinitehipshit ONE LOVE hahahahha

  • The whole world is waking up and rising up,,,,but here in America the pathetic sleeping fools can only gather five to fifteen thousand people in the major cities...The albuquerque OWS protest is a joke 20 to 100 people tops....WHY?...No national unity.....Look at the rest of the world in Israel 500 thousand people joined in the recent protests...500 THOUSAND....These slimeball clone fucks in suits will not move till we gather together and drag their asses out of power...

  • so if the Wall Street CEO's are immoral sir why did you bail them out ?

  • Agreed from Occupy Albuquerque in New Mexico!

  • WALL STREET IS PART OF OUR PROBLEM BUT THE PUPPETS IN THE WHITE HOUSE ARE THE BIGGER PROBLEM IF WE GO TO WAR WITH ANOTHER COUNTRY LIKE IRAN WERE DOOMED WE R IN DEBT AND WAR WILL KEEP US ALL THERE TO HELP AMERICA WE HAVE TO GO TO THE SOURCE AND THATS THE WHITE HOUSE LIKE I SAID THE ZIONIST(DON'T REALLY CARE ABOUT US) WE WERE TOLD IN ADVANCE THROGH A SONG AND WE DIDNT LISTEN SO WHEN U PROTEST REMEMBER THE LYRICS THEY DONT REALLY CARE ABOUT US

  • A black man is fucking up our nation BUT, don't blame him his''s just a puppet now a black man told us and we didn't listen all i wanna say is(they don't really care about US) figure that out he knew the truth because he knew the big man and there ways so fight for ur right .but go to the source the white house not the wall street idiots they r puppets to the white house control the warssssss! and thats hurting america by 14,tillon dollars so GO AFTER THE SOURCE THE WHITE HOUSE

  • @CentristFiasco - An anarchist overthrow? What rubbish. I would be much happier if this was an overthrow, but the movement haven't reach that stage yet.

  • I knew it. They are acting up this "all the world's a stage" fake public rage so real rage happens and then the will open up the FEMA camps. Remember when the riots happened in London? That was instigated and controlled too. the provocateurs looted for days then the average kid gets arrested just standing there.

    This is AP as well. Rothschild strong arm.

  • This situation and people are pathetic......... Marching for a fallacy, dumb!

  • DIVIDED-WE-FAIL-JUST WHAT The-System is Design 2-Do Through Greed, Corruption & Oppression. The-1% are UNITED in controlling YOUR MONEY One*Demand + My*1040 + Control the funding & YOU The*People Direct Development. My*1040 Tea Party, Coffee Party, Any Party it's the SAME issue, HOW YOUR MONEY IS SPENT The Opportunity is N.O.W. Unite the C.H.A.O.S. Display your Heart of Peaceful*Intent... Global Change, Recovery & Security will Rapidly Develop. United WE Succeed, Divided WE Fail... Your*Choice.

  • Occupy Forever.

  • It's not just about money I think. "How Far 2 Zuccotti Park" a photo-essay on YouTube.

  • Occupy's message is simple: END THE BUSH ECONOMIC REGIME!!!!!!!!!!

    Raise taxes on the 1%.

    Regulate Wall Street & the FED.

    End Outsourcing.

    BRING BACK THE JOBS!

  • If I were a neo con or Tea Partier I'd be pretty damn frightened.

    The movement is growing at an alarming rate. Even small towns are starting Occupy protests. So what do the TP morons do?All they can do is RAVE like trolls on youtube since the majority of the American people are on the side of the 99% because most of the country is just laughing at you neo cons.

  • So you're telling me that "Occupy Wall Street" isn't a movement to prevent Shia LaBeouf from making another horrible movie?

  • Hell yes!!!!

  • Is it really true there was almost no wrongdoing on Wall Street that led to this crisis? Just a bunch of well meaning, but foolish people who made a lot of money by abusing a system innocently? I hardly think so... No, I agree with the protesters who say: "We are the 99% that will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption of the 1%!

  • Organized, like in organized crime? Yes, agree. These people are the dregs of society.

  • If you are not in the 1% you are in the 99% like the rest of us. The GOP is finished and the demos better back the 99ers as greed is not good.

  • I don't think a blackout or smear campaign against these protesters is going to effect the counterculture you are creating.

  • Factory farming CEO's have the country in believing that we need animals and their products to be healthy. We've been duped. Live a vegan lifestyle.

  • Factory farming CEO's have the country in believing that we need animals and their products to be healthy. We've been duped.

    God's Creatures Ministry

  • @Godscre100

    Live a compassionate, cruelty free vegan lifestyle and shut down factory farms where billions of animals suffer for greed.

  • The PRIVATELY OWNED Federal Reserve Bank gave trillions to the banks, corporations and wall street, why not protest the Federal Reserve Bank?

  • propaganda at its best! Occupy Wall Street represents the 99% of the public who have no voice! Our leader is JUSTICE!

  • Eric Cantor, you're concerned? You're concerned that these protests will make a positive change on America. You fucking cock sucker.

  • I'd love to join in on these protests, but with my work schedule and all the upcoming holiday shopping I have planned, now is just really not a good time for me. Maybe they'll still be going on when I take my next vacation. But what if they actually accomplish the goal of these protests and achieve the desired outcome they're hoping for?

    I'd hate to miss out.

  • FOOK ------ ERIC CANTOR, Eric cantor will cut social security for the elderly , and god knows what else, bring out the militiamen .

  • I think they are wearing out their welcome real fast. The park has become a shithole. Garbage everywhere, people pissing on the streets. Animals.

  • You should be, Eric, the violence being incited against these people will turn this ugly if you arent careful. You will make them dangerous.

  • Who are these people to say something is wrong when everything is relative.

  • You can hear in the AP reporters voice that he's barely keeping back his disdain for the movement. The lackey just want it all to go away.

  • For those that feel they have been taken advantage of in this country whether you are a Moor or not, US Citizen or non US citizen, 13 years and older,PLEASE GOOGLE "MURAKUSH FREE MOORS ACT OF 2011" this is a petition for Moorish Treaty Rights this petition is in the same consciousness and spirit of why we all have a right to protest whether on the streets or through the internet!! So please seek out this ACT and lets ALL let the gov't know that we ALL have a VOICE!! THANKS FOR SIGNING!

  • This stuff is already falling apart. Go home and sleep people.

  • I just started to watch: "Capitalism - a love story"

  • what happens if it rains?

  • There is not much reason to compare OWS to the Tea Party. For one thing, the upper-tier of the TP is financed and operated by the corporate Right (making it a partisan movement). OWS is "funded" by whatever people can spare, and its complaints have little to do with partisan politics. Second, these people are not having a fun Saturday protest - they are LIVING on the streets of the financial district. And the media is giving this movement about 1/1,000,000th of the coverage it gave the Teas.

  • With all due respect Mr. President, shut the fuck up. Your eloquent words and charm have worn off. People have lost faith and this is why they're gathering and protesting.

  • @TheUnsnobbed Obama is violation of the U.S. Constitution serving on the United Nations board. Just because he black doesn't mean he is for his people.

  • Banks pushed out millions bubble of gum-loans/candy knowingly would sour and the homeowners would eventually be faced with foreclosed. The FBI warred congress what would happen, however, profit verses the people won. Banks put our/their money in a scams which Wall Street fabricated to strip the world from it’s cash. The world banks has lost over one-hundred and fifty quadrillion dollars and not even the U.S. Federal reserve bank can bail them/us out. Your dreams are in the toilet.

  • I support the protesters. I want to see a strong America based on its constitution, not the one with corrupted system now. I am from Europe.

  • so basically they want communism right??? a guarantee that they'll be taken care of, a safety net... better be careful what you wish for.. something seems a bit odd about this movement..

  • lol propaganda to "blame canada"

  • EVERYBODY needs to kick Eric Cantor to the curb,get rid of him in the next election after what he just said,quote "I for one am concerned about the growing MOBS on Wall Street and other places in the country",that quote was taken from another interview but its about the same as what he just said.Eric in case you don't know its called The First Amendment to the United States Constitution is part of the Bill of Rights.Freedom of speech,Freedom of the press,The right to peaceably assemble,so on.

  • @profsat5 What caused the recession?

  • @KingDingaLing090 You tell me.

  • @profsat5 You don't know?

  • @KingDingaLing090 You tell me.I'm a professor of economics and I am currently writing a paper on this and I would like to know your opinion on the matter.All my students have done so.I would really like to hear from the people to see if students are out of touch with the real world or is it the other way around.I use no names or internet names in my report.Everything will be discussed at a upcoming meeting of myself and around 50 other professors.

  • @profsat5 Not an American, but have some understanding based on reading: the U.S. would be in a surplus, not defecit if not for military spending (as much as the rest of the world combined!) and a dysfunctional healthcare system that is many times more expensive than other industrial countries and has some of the worst outcomes. Nixon destroyed the Breton Woods agreement and subsequent presidents made it worse by deregulating banks and encouraging short term speculation.

  • @TheEvdebbs I really appreciate your input.If you don't mind the only thing I will use is the country you are from,Canada and your age.An outside view and opinion is really useful.The US rarely hears anything from Canada and I would like to know why.You are our neighbors but it is kinda rare we hear anything to do with Canada.As a professor I am always hungry for knowledge and the most powerful,truthful,comes from private citizens.Thanks for your input.Anybody use my page in private msgs.

  • @profsat5 - I asked you first why are you afraid of telling me your opinion? I will be more than happy of giving you my opinion after.

  • @KingDingaLing090 Forget about it ding -bat.There is very little that I am afraid of.I asked you nicely and as respectful as I could be.People I didn't even ask were nice enough to contact me with their opinions,but no not you,so be gone little fly I don't care about hearing your buzz anymore.

  • @profsat5 Oh right, you can't tell me because you don't understand it.

    You arent respecting me if you refuse to answer the question and then ask me the exact same question back. If you won't answer the question it means you are afraid to answer it. That is not disrespect that is LOGIC.

    You must feel SOOOOo lucky that you found an escape route here. I KNOW you don't understand the recession. You should just flat out admit it. My Econ professor didnt know jack shit about the recession either

  • @KingDingaLing090 Your a student?You know more than your economics professor?Since I am also a economics professor,by default you know more than me?You got a looooog way to go in life ding-bat.I don't have time for childish games.Looking over this page I see that you start a argument with everybody you talk to.Well go back to your sand box and play there.If you know more than two economic professors and your still in school,QUIT.As far as understanding the recession,my kid knows more than you.

  • @profsat5 Yes. Clearly I do. And since you won't answer the question you are clearly at the same level as him.

    And... save me the irrelevant stuff.

    YOU CAN"T TELL ME what caused the recession. I guess all they taught you was Keynesian nonsense (very typical) You been indoctrinated! lol That means your degree is worthless. lol (also very funny).

  • I am going to be in N.Y. on Monday in business, and i am not going to miss all this free food...rssss

  • — Occupy Planet Earth —

    A World |2evolution Now !!!

  • OCCUPY W.S.: Please avoid the embarrassing & ignorant mistakes of The Tea Party, using FOX News as their Cliff Notes.

    Re-introduce the most informed, most articulate life-long soldier:

    Mr. Ralph Nadar.

  • at 2:20 notice that the president shows that he is in bed with Wall Street. He says that "none of that stuff was illegal" (concerning the financial crisis). So yes we now all see that Wall street does own the current administration. Vote the bums out. Please...in the future...vote only for those who are aware of the corruption (people like Ron Paul).

  • Thank you AP. I now have some hope in American media. Please continue to do what obviously Fox News is too stupid to do.

  • @FlashProduktions If Fox is so stupid why do you watch it?

  • @KingDingaLing090 Oh that argument again. I dont watch it anymore, and when I do I normally do it to take count of certain things to find how biased and unreasonable it is. Just because you are not forced to do something doesnt mean that its not corrupt. Yes, I could simply stop watching them. Or I could find information, organize it, and come up with an argument against fox news and mainstream media.

  • @FlashProduktions It isnt an argument it is a question. If you don't watch it then how do you know what they do and do not do?

    What is your argument against Fox news? How are they biased and unreasonable?

  • @FlashProduktions Sure, Bill O'Reilly, Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh etc, et al seem crazy and loud and occupy their time fanning the fames of indignant fury, dog-whistling, and misinforming the public. But that doesn't make Fox News stupid, its not. Fox News (Murdoch Newscorp) is probably the largest and most powerful propaganda outfit ever created by wealthy educated elites, and a real weapon in the hands of the powerful against the powerless.

  • @TheEvdebbs Yet there having a hard time figuring out why people are protesting. They also show multiple people that dont know what they're talking about, to make them look right. The fact is that they interviewed more people that did know what they were talking about, and didnt show it. The channel itself chooses what to report on, and how to make it sound. Because of this I thought that I would know have to rely on foreign news to know whats going on in this country. AP proved me wrong.

  • REMEMBER THIS IS ABOUT WALL STREET GREED NOT ABOUT POLITICS.WHAT WE SAY IS WE ARE AWAKE TO THE WAY THINGS RUN IN THIS COUNTRY AND THE WORLD.AND THAT IS NOT BY GOVERNMENTS. THE BANKERS ARE THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM.THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED ''OCCUPY WALL STREET'' DON'T LET MEDIA CHANGE THE MESSAGE .JAIL O THE BANKERS!END THE FED! END THE CORRUPT SYSTEM!!

  • What about the Kadafi Personal located in HUD in 1990-1993 & she reportedly wrote notes for Buffalo (lacka.6's big/closest City) fbi to find out that she had slipped in a drug for another HUD employee to have heart attack, she survived & went to church, church called her a Prophet in 1992 & then mugged etc. She had no memory/PTStressDis. & inability for high level thinking until now...She worked in mortgages as well & many went into Mega-church preaching. Cd that be the problem w/Wall Street?

  • Eight hundred 'Occupy Wall Street' demonstrations organizing in America?!!. But why!!?? Most interesting is the social and racial composition ( variation in age is from very young to oldsters ). This is about how America makes money. The people don't like 'You're' way anymore. Next time they'll come armed. Think how many of us 'You' have made 'expert killers' over the last half century. Look up 'Encyclopedia of Improvised Munitions'. You know how "The People' get when they lose it.

  • "Growing Mobs"? What about overgrown douchebags?

  • What's with the commericals? Is that some kind of insult?

  • cantor is a corporate whore! haha

  • Ron Paul - End the Fed

  • @801D012 1000 thumbs up to you. The FED is the biggest fraud of all. Many good things are coming out of "Occupy Wall street". One of the good things is that now the Progressives are seeing the same things that Libertarians have been seeing over the years...that the Federal Reserve should be abolished and that Republican and Democratic administrations have been in bed with Wall Street and the Fed.

  • I hope one thing that comes out of this is legislation for more transparency in the financial system. One thing that drives me nuts is looking at my 401K and I can only see the expense ratio of what the fund is charging. This needs to be changed ASAP. No more should banks/financial companies be allowed to hide in the clouds and not show us how they are charging for services.

  • End the Fed!

    

  • These right wing corporate traitors are starting to get worried that Americans really will start dragging these shitting right wing traitors from their offices and out in to the streets for fair trails.

  • Did he say "mob?" 1:54 - 2:06?

  • Anyone interested please look into Ron Paul and find out taht hes for liberties and freedom.

  • Occupy the federal reserve.

  • This gives me faith in humanity.

  • "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they attack you, then you win." ~Mahatma Gandhi

  • People need to get out of the 2 party mindset. Stop blaming only republicans or only democrats. They are one in the same. BOTH PARTIES ARE FULL OF CORPORATE CRONIES!! Obama is NO BETTER, nor is he no worse than Bush! Bush lied, Obama lied. Democrats and Repubs are the same machine. Bank owned and operated!

  • @luv4Aerith false. its pure ignorance and laziness that equates democrats and republicans. same with your BS bush and obama comparison.

  • @zelinskyteki Remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

  • @zelinskyteki You assholes raped at least 80,000 women in WW2. No one has sympathy for imperial Japan.

  • @zelinskyteki Fuckin 1940's japanese propaganda. Denying the holocaust and hating the jewish. Just the fuck up! No one will read your bullshit. Fuck you, neo-nazi!

  • Boycott big banks now! Speak in language they understand. SHOP LOCALLY. BOYCOTT BIG CORPORATIONS AND SUPPORT YOUR OWN TOWN'S SMALL LOCAL BUSINESSES AND FARMS.

  • THERE is no RELIGION higher THEN the TRUTH

  • Occupy the FED!!! End the FED!!!!

  • If it is immoral, inappropriate and reckless, shouldn’t it be illegal? Isn’t it what having a legal system is all about?

  • When was Occupy wall street not organized?

  • Those of you who feel the need to write paragraphS of crap, remember less is more. Chances are, nobody will bother to read it.

  • I would vote in a president who can supply jobs to those who have the educations. Just because we are out of jobs does not mean we are NOT worthy of these positions. Many of us ARE just as, if not smarter than those drinking champagne upon the terrace.

  • Unions marching with these folks make them look like tools.  corporations AND unions BOTH buy politicians. Look at Trumpka bragging about his daily visits to the whitehouse.

    Get a clue,OWS, the unions will take you somewhere you do NOT want to go.

  • @linwooddeaton Unions are fighting for jobs. Republicans just want to protect the rich.

  • You can call it a protest, revolt, rebellion, or even a riot. But, these people aren't trying to tear down America, they're trying to save it!

  • it wanst illegal, just immoral? what!!!! no more obama!!!!! oust the criminals!!!! the american people are adopting a zero tolereance policy!!!!

  • Cantor could be out of a job soon.

  • Wow AP made a comment on OWS, someone will be fired for that, do the Koch brothers know their pals at AP mentioned this?

  • This is crazy. These guys have cell phones, iphones and ipads... They go to ball games... what else they want?

  • @pgthinker007 Cell phones, iPhones and iPads... All made in China!!

    Happy Capitalism!!

  • @GreatWhiteNorth82

    More you tax companies, more jobs you lose in America:-)

    The most businessman do not like running businesses in America.

    35% Corp. Federal tax + state taxes

  • @pgthinker007 we've been lowering their taxes for decades yet they don't seem to be creating any more jobs. Whats the deal?

  • @MoonKittenJD

    When was last time you lowered tax rate? Highest corporate tax rate on the globe is in America:-)

  • @pgthinker007 we as in america durr.

    highest corporate loophole rate in the world is us as well.

  • @GreatWhiteNorth82 yep, happy capitalism, end corporate socialization of losses!

  • @pgthinker007 Their Rights

  • No, Occupy Wall Street is not about the Left, whatever that means. It's about EVERYONE!!!

  • Republicans: beyond hypocrisy, beneath contempt.

  • @Silberdachs

    Same as democrats.

    Don't you see they created the "Democrats" and "Republicans" to seperate the people?

  • @Silberdachs Can you tell me what caused the recession?

  • Ya need to go after the crooked trade & tax laws that enrich the few at the expense of the many. Right now the GOP are pushin 3 trade deals with Columbia, Panama & South Korea, and the South Korea pact alone will cost the U.S. 150,000+ manufacturing jobs. Obama agreed if the GOP would allow money to retrain US workers who lost their jobs. The GOP said no, then agreed to allow a small portion of the money. So we lose our jobs & have to pay to retrain ourselves for new ones that don't exist. Nice!

  • Obama continues to play his part in decriminalizing fraud when committed by the ruling class. It wasn't "just immoral, inappropriate, or reckless." It was illegal. Fraud is illegal. It's always been illegal.

  • Kill the Federal Reserve Banking System, the real Enemy of America. American tax payers are paying trillions in interest to the Federal Reserve turning us into Debt Slaves and controlling the value of our currency. America needs to control its own money again and stop paying billions a day in interest to the Federal Reserve Bank. Kennedy wanted to do it, Nixon wanted to do it, Ron Paul wants to do it. The most powerful cartel in the world needs to be dismantled, Kill The Federal Reserve Bank.

  • Cantor is a JOKE!

  • I dont know what my opinion is on their purpose, but they suck at protesting. It looked like the protesters were spending all their time eating and sleeping while one guy yelled. Its almost comical.
