Xxdx.... Ur comment truly made me chuckle,... "they look like uneducated people" ... U have see seen the pic of Einstein sticking his tongue out, right? He looks pretty silly or uneducated, but he was one of most brilliant men in any time. Remember, don't judge a book by it's cover, plenty of the insane judged so by us, were/are amazing people.
Americans are crazy and foul-mouthed, but still these people came out together and defended their town from the taint of having any WTO proceedings and policy agreements attached to the name of their town. Good job Seattle.
I don't see what the anarchists were doing as violence, it's violent, but it's violent against corporations and not people...watch how they treat the citizens, they avoid even yelling at them, what organizations like the IMF and WTO have done since the end of WWII is true violence, violence against the world and its people...financial violence forcing people into poverty and starvation all across the world, that is the true violence...violence against human rights
@meskuzi301 I worked at a downtown Seattle women's homeless shelter at the time of the WTO riot. Yes, a lot of the protesters were violent. They wouldn't even let the traumatized women who lived in the shelter inside. It was ridiculous. This event has been glamorized....primarily by those who don't live in Seattle and don't know that truth. I would compare WTO to frat boy riots. There were many people protesting who were educated on the issue....and many who just wanted to do damage.
@chriscason24 God bless the man who can avoid violence. But from my prespective, I already live in a violent world, in which violence has to prevail, since Im born inside the system. I always liked the point of view of anarcho-pacifists but find it unfortunately inevitable to achieve victory over the system using peace. Whatever man, I prefer chilling and smoking with hippies in a greek paradise, but on the other hand... riots have to happen too....
This was really byzarr and stupid. In East Tennessee where im from, when we disagree with the government we tell them to get off our property, and when they dont we shoot em. I own 65 acres in the mountains and if any ATF or US Marshal wants ot 'investigate' my land for corn whiskey or meth, he can do it, but probably wont live to report to his government asshole beuracrat.
@TennVol92 What are you talking about? The government wasn't on their property.. They were upset at the W.T.O for their effect on people all over the world.. Its a bit different than US Marshals trespassing on their land.
chriscason24 You are wrong. The union struggle is more powerful than in all history. It's on the news every night. We hurt no one. The WTO and cops did.
@HoboBob217 They had a year to "prepare" for it. That's why they acted on testosterone. That's neither here nor there. They started it anyway. Peacefully smash a window like so. Look for heavy object, look for window, smash window. Direct action against property is not violence in that situation. Generally the window breaker is careful so no one gets hurt unless he is a cop plant/agitator. Don't be brainwashed into thinking direct action is violence. Rubber bullets are violence. Be smarter! :)
Check out this article. Understand that not all of the cops that were there were Seattle cops, heck a lot of them were from other counties. The chief of police resigned because he tried his best to maintain order, and through the actions of a few (bb and their supporters) the event changed from protests about the WTO to coverage of a fight between police and a mob in Seattle.
@HoboBob217 I don't have to check out an article to know everything I need to know about what happened before, during and after the civil rights massacre against the American people that went down in Seattle in 1999. I was involved & I was there. I followed everything, documented everything, even in photographs until the cop smashed my camera and exposed the film. If a cops judgment is impaired as you say, he/she needs to go home. Would you let an exhausted surgeon work on you?
@HoboBob217 Please don't make excuses for crooked cops or a crooked organization. Wherever they hold WTO, NAFTA, GATT whatever "free trade" meetings we will be there, protesting, dancing, causing a rukkus, reporting to indymedia, peacefully smashing windows, peacefully spraypainting. Everyone protesting in their own respective way.
@JIMINIK1 I never said that I was against what you were all trying to support, and I was never saying that everything that the cops did was right, but not everything that the protestors did was right either.
And just out of curiosity, how do you peacefully smash a store window?
And about removing tired cops from the scene. They simply couldn't do it. They were undermanned and working with what they had in a situation that they weren't fully prepared for.
Heck, people were throwing cans of food at them, using squirt guns full of urine, and other things like that. If you have been working 12 hour days for a week straight and dealing with crap like that, your judgement might be impaired a little.
@HoboBob217 Be it a doctor, teacher, anarchist or hippy we will remain united and won't allow people like you to single out or devide us up into who is proper or not. When my daughter gets older I can tell her that I was one of the activists on the front line fighting for human rights instead of some cop/brutality sympathizer who supports an unjust system.
remember this was ten years ago now and frankly the world has change(more so for the worse) but this is whats happening all over the world now meetings and protest that turn out to be riots
and now there will be less fucking activist becuase the'll be on the side of that bullshit providing socialist pig known as fucking obama
and wto is was not the start there were protests on the imf and world bank as far back a 88' and 94
@JIMINIK1 The cops did not start the riot. Most of you were there for change, several were there for change of a different sort. Ever heard of the Black bloc, intentionally provoking police who were trying their best to maintain the peace when they were ridiculously undermanned.
I agree that there are A LOT of problems with the WTO, but don't blame the police for them. The police were caught between a rock and a hard place.
@HoboBob217 I PROMISE you that the cops started it. We were standing there peacefully chanting for a few hours when the cops rolled up in some armored vehicle. Suddenly you heard "thump thump thump thump thump"! They launched tear gas into a peaceful crowd of elderly people, children, teachers moms and dads, Americans... They came at us swinging and took out anyone they could with brutal violence. Hell yeah we fought back! The police chief resigned in disgrace soon there after. THEY started it.
There are men make so much money and there is men who lose there lifes in cost of 15 or 30 million rich man, billions of family's lose there support no health care and so on.
because of the New age you cant just change all of that
@dav1disradical sure sure, you're right to an extent. Now imagine what would have happened if your government didn't back up those corporations that crashed the market.
@IntellectualConcepts success does not come without sacrifice. and US's success would not be so successful without the sacrifice. Death of only a few dozen children each year, if even true, is not as bad as it seems. but explain what children die from what?
Anyone who is against the WTO and what the term globalization is used to describe should support Dennis Kucinich. He's like Ralph Nader but is running for Congress to represent Ohio's 10th district--a seat he already holds. He is a two-time presidential peace candidate and a noted anti-consumerist.
Its good that they are protesting this, but its unfortunate that the only people that come out to this shit are fucking retards. It would be better if more intellectual arguments by credible people in more public arenas, like the news channels.
"A lot of it was just anarchists vandalizing shit who didn't come from jobs, they just wanted to burn the world.".................It was an old Kristallnacht tactic using 40-50 unthinking anarchist, which would allow the corporate police state to vilify the peaceful protesters; so much for that wonderful thing called Constitutional rights.
The American people should never trade in our God given rights, or natural rights if you're not a believer, for the fraud they call safety. Well, back to the corporate plantation. Peace.
Uh..... no offense to you guys who have protested, but you weren't protesting WTO..... you were just protesting everything that annoyed you. This was an occasion to take advantage of a lot of media, a high profile issue, and pour out all your grievances in one place. I feel it's very human of you, but it wasn't necessarily something with purpose. A lot of it was just anarchists vandalizing shit who didn't come from jobs, they just wanted to burn the world.

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
these people are idiot hippies, get a job and maybe you wouldnt be so poor. laz useless pussies. these idiots wrecked the city and for what you think these corperate moguls give a fuck no. its a joke to them. they werent born as ceo's they fuckin worked hard thats why their rich.
how is calling someone a homosexual an insult? i think you need to look in the mirror and ask yourself why you're such a bigot. you probably hate obama because he's black too, right?
I don't know how is the economy going there in the US from here in France! economy is doing as good as the system is letting it be! every action appeals consequences
regarding your mental level , I'm expecting another insult.. fag, clown.. etc..
As for NWGirl30 and her "Hippy freaks" comment.... go back to burying your head in the sands of apathy and continue pretending that the world that isn't in the realm of your immediate experience doesn't exist. These policies are going to have a profound impact on all of us and we will feel the catastrophic effects in our lifetime i.e. when climate change takes a dramatic turn for the worse, when we hit the wall of a major energy crisis and the economic system collapses...
How fortunate we are to live in a country of wealth and privilege where ignorant jackasses like schwoogie78 and NWGirl30 can lounge around on their computers and make snarky remarks about people who are being oppressed. In less fortunate societies people are imprisoned, tortured and even murdered for speaking their opinions .... ironically it is people like you schwoogie78 that have led to the creation of such societies. I bet you'd have a different opinion if you were born in the third world.
you know what the best part about people starving in third world countries is?...THERE REALLY FAR AWAY!!!!you want to help?....go move your dumb cunting ass over there
mee am very glad you am like how me typ badry....me am no retard whay am you so mad ....me am still think dese plorotestors should havem skulls bashed in
sure if you move to a third world country you can provide some food to some people, but that won't stop these companies from exploiting them and creating more starvation and exploitation
@halodemon97 no sir...im being funded by your mother who just LOOOOVES to have me shit in her mouth....what a well paying slut...to bad you had to pop out of her cunt though....oh well, everyone makes mistakes...even filthy diseased whores
The WTO exploits the citizens of 3rd world nations and outsources American jobs overseas while they are not at all held accountable for the threats their policies pose to the environment.
Even I am proud to live in Europe and not in fucking hidden police state like USA but we starting here in Europe to live the same shit like you in USA. American people (at leat most of them) are good people but too lazy t stand up... and we are begining to act like those americans.. like we in spain say:
el pueblo unido, jamas sera vencido (people united will never divided...)
WE ARE THE PEOPLE STOP THE MEDIA SHIT AND THE WTO AND THE LOBBIES ...STOP NOW::::::::::::
are you really belive this shit? oh my you are even worse thani suspect.. we i europe live very very good and dont compare britain withthe rest of us uk was always an outsider
anyway i am not a communist but you are a bushassliker.. and perhaps once you had a girlfriend but she she went with another man prolly arab and thatswhy you are a racist (i know yuo because of other comments);-)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
english is the most spoken language in the world. I hate bush, he's a cunt and so are you, and i'm not a racist, I don't know what the hell you're talking about with all your terrorist jibberjabber. Go back to spain! The internet belongs to America. We invented it, we own it.
well english IS NOT the most spoke language its chinese(mandarin) thanenglish than hindu and than spanish...(arab, spanish its rising)
well itnernet doenst belong to usa hahaha you jerk...one thing is that usa ivented it for military use but it went commercial in a free university and the real popularity came from britain. Also I live inspain so i dont need gto go back i wont never live in usa where you exploityour own citizens..Hillbilly
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Whatever, I still don't know what you're talking about. You really need to work on your english. We're going to be your overlords soon. The US will dominate Spain. We already defeated you once, now it's time for round II! We will bring you American Football (REAL football), Big Macs, and SUV's to your land of sheepfucking, tightpants wearing, land of girly men. It's only a matter of time!
pavlopwnsyourface, you are a fucking nationalistic bigot!
tinotrivino, you must keep in mind that these elite capitalists and politicians don't have borders. They want to control, enslave, privatize and commercialize the whole world. It is not just an American phenomenon. To defeat them will require GLOBAL enlightenment and resistance, and a plan of our own. A mind-boggling task, indeed!
"Just because American is the greatest country on the face of the earth..."
Yeah, that sounds a lot like nationalism to me. Arguments like that aren't going to change my mind, because I don't recognize borders. I don't believe in authority, government or their laws. I am not part of the materialistic rat race that the corporations promote. I don't support ANY coercive group or organization. I am a citizen of the world!
Read up a little on anarchism. It's not merely the defiance of authority by punk kids; rather, it is a collection of sophisticated political philosophies, often based on humanist values. And I'm not some "faggy anarchist kid." First of all, I am 21. Second, I am quite intelligent and knowledgeable, and a skilled debater. And finally, in case you haven't realized, a personal attack is not a valid argument; it has no relevance to the subject being debated.
Another thing: I just saw on your profile that you are an atheist. Well sir, so am I, and I think your Youtube behavior reflects badly on those of us who want to prove that atheists can have calm, rational debates without childish name-calling. Logical thought and discussion should not be reserved just for religious topics. It should be applied to everything, including politics.
LOL, does pot really do that to you? I thought it was supposed to calm you down :) That's what it does to my buddy that smokes it, I think.
Well anyways, I guess we can agree to disagree on politics. That's the thing: Atheists don't all have to believe the same shit. We are a diverse group, bound only by our disbelief and, ideally, our rationality. To steal a phrase from my former religion, Catholicism: "Peace be with you."
BTW, sorry I called you a bigot. There's nothing wrong with patriotism, as long as it's not taken to the extreme. Often people who call themselves patriots ignore things that are wrong with our nation. You have to be realistic, and take the bad with the good. In my opinion, anyone who supports the constitution and critically analyzes the actions of the government, corporations and other organizations is a true patriot. I do love my country, but I love my planet even more! And I hope for peace!
Yeah I understand. I just hate it when I come across knee jerk anti-Americanism. I hate it when it's assumed that all Americans are neo-cons hell bent on subjugating the world. I often respond in a belligerent, sarcastic manner to this. I know the American government and corporations have done abhorrent things to the world and I oppose this, but I will never apologize to anyone for being an American. I will always support the people of this country, our constitution, the people of the world.

how is calling someone a homosexual an insult? i think you need to look in the mirror and ask yourself why you're such a bigot. you probably hate obama because he's black too, right?
mattrmc19 2 years ago
I'm a big Obama fan I think his election is a big lesson given to humanity..
I dont think homosexual an insult, but fag is a demeaning term for homosexuals you know that very well
ilsontfouscesromains 2 years ago
haha, i knew you worshipped obama. what a clown you are. you know he isn't god, right? how's the economy doing? haha. YES WE CAN!!!!!
mattrmc19 2 years ago
I don't know how is the economy going there in the US from here in France! economy is doing as good as the system is letting it be! every action appeals consequences
regarding your mental level , I'm expecting another insult.. fag, clown.. etc..

no wonder you're an obama lover, you're not an american so he's not ruining your life. go fuck yourself, loser.

As for NWGirl30 and her "Hippy freaks" comment.... go back to burying your head in the sands of apathy and continue pretending that the world that isn't in the realm of your immediate experience doesn't exist. These policies are going to have a profound impact on all of us and we will feel the catastrophic effects in our lifetime i.e. when climate change takes a dramatic turn for the worse, when we hit the wall of a major energy crisis and the economic system collapses...

How fortunate we are to live in a country of wealth and privilege where ignorant jackasses like schwoogie78 and NWGirl30 can lounge around on their computers and make snarky remarks about people who are being oppressed. In less fortunate societies people are imprisoned, tortured and even murdered for speaking their opinions .... ironically it is people like you schwoogie78 that have led to the creation of such societies. I bet you'd have a different opinion if you were born in the third world.

The WTO exploits the citizens of 3rd world nations and outsources American jobs overseas while they are not at all held accountable for the threats their policies pose to the environment.

Whatever, I still don't know what you're talking about. You really need to work on your english. We're going to be your overlords soon. The US will dominate Spain.

It's only a matter of time!

pavlopwnsyourface, you are a fucking nationalistic bigot!
tinotrivino, you must keep in mind that these elite capitalists and politicians don't have borders. They want to control, enslave, privatize and commercialize the whole world. It is not just an American phenomenon. To defeat them will require GLOBAL enlightenment and resistance, and a plan of our own. A mind-boggling task, indeed!

"Just because American is the greatest country on the face of the earth..."
Yeah, that sounds a lot like nationalism to me. Arguments like that aren't going to change my mind, because I don't recognize borders. I don't believe in authority, government or their laws. I am not part of the materialistic rat race that the corporations promote. I don't support ANY coercive group or organization. I am a citizen of the world!
Beeza2996 2 years ago
great. another little faggy anarchist kid on the youtubes...
pavlopwnsyourface 2 years ago
Read up a little on anarchism. It's not merely the defiance of authority by punk kids; rather, it is a collection of sophisticated political philosophies, often based on humanist values. And I'm not some "faggy anarchist kid." First of all, I am 21. Second, I am quite intelligent and knowledgeable, and a skilled debater. And finally, in case you haven't realized, a personal attack is not a valid argument; it has no relevance to the subject being debated.
Beeza2996 2 years ago
Another thing: I just saw on your profile that you are an atheist. Well sir, so am I, and I think your Youtube behavior reflects badly on those of us who want to prove that atheists can have calm, rational debates without childish name-calling. Logical thought and discussion should not be reserved just for religious topics. It should be applied to everything, including politics.
Beeza2996 2 years ago
my apologies, i am incredibly highhh
pavlopwnsyourface 2 years ago
LOL, does pot really do that to you? I thought it was supposed to calm you down :) That's what it does to my buddy that smokes it, I think.
Well anyways, I guess we can agree to disagree on politics. That's the thing: Atheists don't all have to believe the same shit. We are a diverse group, bound only by our disbelief and, ideally, our rationality. To steal a phrase from my former religion, Catholicism: "Peace be with you."

BTW, sorry I called you a bigot. There's nothing wrong with patriotism, as long as it's not taken to the extreme. Often people who call themselves patriots ignore things that are wrong with our nation. You have to be realistic, and take the bad with the good. In my opinion, anyone who supports the constitution and critically analyzes the actions of the government, corporations and other organizations is a true patriot. I do love my country, but I love my planet even more! And I hope for peace!
Beeza2996 2 years ago
Yeah I understand. I just hate it when I come across knee jerk anti-Americanism. I hate it when it's assumed that all Americans are neo-cons hell bent on subjugating the world. I often respond in a belligerent, sarcastic manner to this. I know the American government and corporations have done abhorrent things to the world and I oppose this, but I will never apologize to anyone for being an American. I will always support the people of this country, our constitution, the people of the world.
