Occupy Chicago Governor Scott Walker Speech Interrupted Mic Check

[barbtube01]

Democracy and free speech at work in America..........great video! Makes me proud to be a American!

[feoinfunroe]

My grandfather rises from the dead and high-fives me every time I watch this.

[ShawnSorensenPDX]

Tense, tense, tense, tense...getting in his face...there should be easier methods... If their were the people would be heard more. The consumer class needs help to take care of their families and get our economy going. Unions protect good jobs, which every hard-working American deserves.

[runnermonkey]

GEORGE SOROS the socialist that backs Democrats, SCOTT WALKER is the right stuff, Gov Unions are the wrong stuff.

[jptugagmr]

MIC CHECK!!!!!!! great!

[SavannahsRUs]

Constitution + Human Spirit = Beautiful Thing.

[SavannahsRUs]

Expect Us.

[msinfosd]

great!!!!! keep it up-

[Bliies]

this is a pretty strong reaction, which i think should happen, if people were to sit down, not do anything, and let the government say whats right or wrong, well the US won't be the US in 20 years, you need a some outcry to keep the public figures and officials in check. Of course there is people who get paid and educated to do that, but sometimes those people get a skewed in their reasoning. WE NEED To stop monopolies in the U.S which is evident every time you go grocery shopping and Walmart.

[oshun1235]

So cool, thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing up for us! I

[unclelight]

Thanks to liberal policy the world economy is crashing. We must do two things to stop the meltdown NOW!!! Firstly, we need to raise all payroll taxes 10% for one year. We also need to stop (right now) wasteful handout programs like medicare, social security, unemployment,, etc. and lower the minimum wage to $2/hr so we can compete with China. I will work with Scott Walker,Paul Ryan and my other republican colleagues and take immediate action on these proposals. God bless the GOP!

[richardwilliam1967]

out of line and why i wont join these people! they all want a hand out and now cry out for it with MIC CHECK. take them out of office then write the law that HANGS THEM ALL BAY THERE NECKS! END THE FED

[callouschristian]

Bye Bye, Scott. I hope you make it out of wisconsin alive. Not really. It would be funny if you at least lost your wig.....but you deserve to lose way more.

[Nosaltypeanut]

Love it!!!!

[LadyBeritanavatarius]

Unless you walk completely naked into the woods, create your own tools, hunt for your food and grow it, forage and build your own shelter and clothing. If you don't, you are dependant on others for tools, supplies, food, shelter etc through their work whcih creates the PRODUCTS you se in your daily life.. No man is an island.

[LadyBeritanavatarius]

The collective is the society you live in while you are the individual... what you do either directly or indirectly affects others in you community, and they as indiviuals also direclty or indirectly affect you. You cannot live completely alone and neither can they. We depend on each other for things we need to live.

[LadyBeritanavatarius]

The collective and the individual is both linked. If the indiviual is not happy, the colective isn't happy and vice veare IF you have set up a truly healthy system because if you are truly healthy you are happy because ALL your needs are met which includes some of your wants... unless you want to do things such as kill or rape people etc. Tthe problem is setting up a system that is healthy for everyone in body, mind and spirit. That respects both the indiviual and the community. Not impossible.

[johndenton46]

Brilliant. 

[ChrisatTMS]

LOL



[Rockyj2]

I love this vid!

[connormcwood2]

haha

[luisweast]

MIC CHECK!!!!!!!

[UrNoFuN929]

MIC CHECK!!! This is Beautiful!!! sending this to everyone

[IrishRnr56]

Good for you folks for taking them down. Thank you!

[mva1985]

soooo when the Tea Party starts doing this at one of your events you guys will be all right with that - RIGHT????

[dennywolfe]

@mva1985 Who is this tea party of which you type? "Lose Weight Now, Ask Me How" hucksters? Or grassroots Americans whose commonwealth are being looted on behalf of billionaires?

[mva1985]

@dennywolfe you know what the Tea Party is... it wants what is best for individuals NOT the collective which is what the occupy movement is all about

[dennywolfe]

@mva1985 what I know about the Tea Party is heavily astroturffed pockets of grassroots participants hamhandedly coopted by right wing corporatists (="fascists" per Mussolini).

Parsing your syntax, if "Tea Party" is an "it" that "wants" some thing, does that make it a collective?

Any possibility that what's best for the community is also best for most of its individuals? any possibility that the best for most individuals would arise from the action of the greediest among them?

[mva1985]

@dennywolfe you go ahead and voluntarily pay 60-70% of your income in taxes.... write a check no one is stopping you... i'm sure the government can handle your money better than you can

[dennywolfe]

@mva1985 Don't talk about /b/

[DrVonNostrand]

u mad?

[wilfrid55]

job well done !

[monkeywrench528]

I think protests similar to this were done in America and France at one time. Oh yes I remember it was during a Revolution. Now of course were told we're much too civilized for that kind of action and everything should be done by debate and compromise. That's not working. History proves that the biggest change to immoral situations is non-violent protests and revolution. If the free speech we've won makes you feel uncomfortable then it says something about the speech or you or both!!

[murdockpt]

herp derp. instead of productive debate, we push agendas and spew emotion rhetoric. fucking useless "protestors"

[intocake]

@murdockpt You obviously have no idea what state this country is in.

[classicallady]

Prick! Vote him OUT!

[jackson23220]

GREAT job! This is so much better than camping out in parks.

[astraia1x]

@barsense

i shared this one with my pals yesterday and have been featuring it on my page since then.... trying to spread the word.

[astraia1x]

@barsense

hey, great to see you here... this is awesome, isn't it??

[MrJohnTomczak]

Terrible. Uncivilized. Shameful. I would assume that these people had to BUY tickets to this breakfast. With what money? Money they earned with a job? Did they pass out enough to others, worse off people or just spend it on rabble-rousing? They are wasting their money, but who cares? They are wasting the taxpayers money, with the need of extra police, clean up, riot control, and lost wages due to THEIR lack of employment. Undermining and wasting other "99%-er's" money and time. Ironic?

[cjblackwing]

Someone needs to do that to Kasuck here in Ohio.

OH WAIT, THAT'S RIGHT, HE'LL BE GETTING SOMETHING SIMILAR TUESDAY NIGHT. <3

[CTOL1]

Decent is NOT a four letter word, vote is, so next time do not just vote blue or red

[imprezagm4]

How juvenile.

[FixedByDoc]

that was fucking AWESOME guys/gals keep it up. great video saved & faved.

[chgosatrap]

Proud of my homies. I am still steeped in school work.

[astraia1x]

go chicago go.... brilliant!!

[classicallady]

@astraia1x Stupendous share my friend. Will mirror it on my channel. xoxo and comfort to your heart........MEOWS from Tati,Theodora and Sylvester with some au au from Baby......

[LadyLiberty1885]

That was the most moronic and childish display yet. Thank you for reinforcing the idea this movement is nothing but a mob with no real goals or direction but to disrupt the activity du jour.

[chrysalis12481]

Dry cleaners will be busy in town tonite.

[mikeprath]

thank you chicago!

[Chunkballfairy]

Officially proud to be an American again

[deniedretried]

It will be a great day when all those old dinosaur fucks die.

[choops321]

Ron paul is extreamly anti union and anti middle class. He's the guy that the other candidates get their crazy ideas form then clain to be their own. He's an evil man, just leke the rest of them.

[MrJohnTomczak]

@choops321 spelling is an evil thing, just LIKE the rest of education

[bobbylight422]

hell yes! to Hell with Walker! Occupy! Occupy everywhere! To hell with walker and his stooge friends!!!!!!

[goldenLUBE]

And the 99% will Rise up like a Titan from it's slumber and Fight back. Thank GOD I live in America!!

[TheTruthHurts9999]

Simply awesome!

[southsidecalifas]

Wow that was crazy as fuck!

[stoodent1975]

we need to get some one on the in side aka run for president of usa the the change will happen

[kdselectric]

@stoodent1975 I feel that Ron Paul is the only candidate who has common sense.

[rob051160]

"That's BEAUTIFUL" (/Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show, "Cover of the Rolling Stone")

[LiLWolfBigBite]

Correction: this was not Occupy Chicago. This was Stand Up! Chicago that did this. We have to give them respect for doing this.

[RainyEncore]

That was so cool! We are the 99%.

[BobDawg173]

A wild 99% appears! 99% used Mic Check! Its super effective!

[revmedic53261]

If that is the 99%, I proudly stand in the 1% of civilized people.

[llieske]

@revmedic53261 Are you fucking stupid? Freedom of peaceful assembly isn't civilized? While political corruption is?

[revmedic53261]

@llieske I'm civilized (not to mention educated) enough not to resort to common vulgarities to express myself

[llieske]

@revmedic53261 You've also proven yourself completely incapable of even acknowledging the points being addressed here. Yo're too wrapped up in the fact people are "yelling", failing to grasp the fact that these people are fed up with being silenced through mass media (corporate funded) and political policy (also corporate funded). Now, continue to enjoy your pompous "educated" approach to ignoring the reasons for these sorts of assemblies.

[revmedic53261]

@llieske Now that is a more reasoned approach to discussing the problem. It is coherant, doesn't immediately resort to an ad hominun attack (ignoring the pompous jab), and required the engaging of intellect instead of going off the emotions of the moment.

If more people could calm themselves and come together like that, NO one would have to resort to tactics like what we saw here.

[llieske]

@revmedic53261 Okay..... you're still ignoring the issues, too tied up in the etiquette wrapped around the debate to focus on the debate itself. Also concerning the video, I'm pretty sure no one used profanity. The tactic is called "the human microphone". Now tell me, what is so "uncivilized" about this approach, given the circumstances of corrupt politicians getting their way in policy and biasedmass media, which really is no different than yelling over them? It seems perfectly fair to me.

[revmedic53261]

@llieske I wasn't commenting on the issue, but the tactic. I didn't hear any profanity in the video but was referring to your intitial comment. We will have to agree to disagree. Be blessed.

[llieske]

@revmedic53261 Well then, your initial comment is still invalid. Slandering the 99% as "uncivilized" without being prepared to address their issues is premise for a baseless, facile argument. I suggest you pick a few books on debate. Be blessed as well.

[revmedic53261]

@llieske Actually, I simply have to go to work for the next 36 hrs (Fire/EMS followed by pastoral work), and our comments will undoubtably be swallowed and forgotten in the mix. I wanted to leave it on a positive note. Again, be blessed.

[llieske]

@revmedic53261 Not that the human microphone approach is the main focal point of the assembly, I might add. It's just that's what you seem to be so tied up in. The actual issue being the statistics and policy being addressed by the demonstrators. This is the same diversion that mass media pushes on us, when they're not too occupied talking about some sex scandal or the Kardashians. Just kee pointing out how "uncivilized" the demonstration appears with no regard whatsoever to policy reform.

[llieske]

@revmedic53261 which, is to just not even acknowledge what's happening at all.

[DocQuill]

Thanks to the protesters in Chicago for telling the truth about the total disaster the mindless Koch-snorting Scott Walker is for Wisconsin. RECALL WALKER!

[virindi1]

OMG FAWK YES!

[draxdred]

That was pure beautiful carnal poetry from people who care about both the underclass and the future of people on Earth. BRAVO!!

[broberg12341]

Awesome!

[dagerm001]

That sounds more like a prayer, not the pledge of allegiance.

[mydizzymelody]

I'm so happy the claps and boos did not get in the way.  We will NOT be stopped!!!! Occupy; coming to a town near YOU! For the people, by the people. This movement Will NOT be stopped!

[joshuaunderwood7]

@TheStormyLeewolf: Rule 14. Troll in in his name for gods sake. And it is a "him" #28 & #29

[Fiilme]

Love this!

[consciousnessofone]

interesting DNA symbolism @1:51

[MpowerdAPE]

OWNED

[TheStormyleewolf]

@TheTrollTime Ignore this person I am replying to she/he is only one, and we are many. She/he is a psychopath. Don't give the psychopaths a reason to keep spouting nonsense.

[CryptiCitpyrC]

 If the REAL Tea Party(seizing ships in port and throwing the cargo overboard in protest(that was a REAL protest! and that's the spirit America was founded on)) happened today, would you support it? Or would you follow what the mainstream media would call it? (I'm sure they'd call it terrorism or destruction of private property) Our founding fathers would all be thrown in jail if they did something like that today and the MSM would paint it as a bunch of anarchists destroying private property.

[CryptiCitpyrC]

"why i am taking a stand against occupy people because i will not submit to the communist elites"--WTF? taking a stand against communist elites!? Communism has been dead for decades and you're brainwashed by the media and astro-turf tea-party. The modern 'tea party' is a puppet mouth piece for big business. Big business are who controls this country, not the government(the politicians are bought and paid for).

[okiedragonlady2]

damn skippy - good job - met some cool Wisconsinites in DC - love and hugs from Oklahoma

[myfreethinkingnow]

@TheTrollTime ....And a group that finds it okay to occupy my uterus, too. Pretty funny how you want little government, but want plenty of it in my choice to be a mother. That's the tea party for you.

[ArchangelVampire]

That's genius! Keep it going, keep it strong!

[sledpuller]

Retarded communist assholes. They don't speak for this American.

[CryptiCitpyrC]

Be sure to wrap your response in the rhetoric of 'freedom loving Americans' without basing anything on anything other than name calling.

[CryptiCitpyrC]

-- @TrollTime you will continue to serve the elite power mongers for the rest of your depressing life. Do you know how it feels to take a stand against the oligarchical powers? What it's like to fight for justice against the odds and against the status-quo? You should give it a try, I bet you'd like it..

[rolovolo]

Make this video viral!

[rolovolo]

@TheTrollTime <<<<-------braindead troll shill bozo sheeple zombie nazi

[llieske]

[kazazin]

Awesome

[skb0rzn]
