Occupy Wall Street - Send Us Student Footage

[Rogermiler]

Hi! I'm a student and I've written a protest song about being a student during the Recession. I've submitted it via the ''video response'' function. I hope you guys like it! It's a song called 'Some Promises Have Been Made To Me'. I love the work you guys do and we are all grateful that you have covered the Occupy movement without resorting to brushing off the protesters with ridiculous caricatures as most of the mainstream media continue to do. Thank you!!

[OccupyManchester]

Hello! I sent a brief video on police intimidation during an Occupy Manchester (England) protest. The context within the video probably isn't very clear and I'm putting together more videos now to send to you. I'm a film student from Northern Ireland studying in Manchester.

[Thuggin2222]

I only clicked on this because the thumbnail showed a hot chick with big tits.

[jman2avatar]

[forwardmover]

My guess is that Ana is NOT TYT.

[gangstamind187]

[embiweitzel]

Don't forget about Lupe Fiasco! He donated tents to the protesters very early on.

Thank you for covering the occupations, and good call asking for videos! OCCUPYCHICAGO had a good number of videos up.

[wowpapa]

There will be a revolution soon. A socialist revolution!!! The time has come to restore Lenins philosophy.

[DeeSee25]

I'm a recent college grad, not in college now, but I will be attending the Occupy DC event. I'll submit a video and you guys can decide if you want the material or not.

[LILJESUSBOI]

[audadvnc]

Look on Facebook for Jeff Prager's photo album:

"Wall Street Is Occupied - And The Mainstream Isn't Reporting It"

[BNS311]

PORTLAND OREGON WOOP WOOP!!!

[pauloscum]

[eatmorenachos]

The only way the Wall Street protesters will get adequate media coverage is if they wear triangle hats and carry teabags. If teabaggers were protesting in these numbers, it'd be all over the media and Fox would cover it 24/7 (and even promote it).

You'd think the teabaggers would get in on this as well, but the fact that they're not just proves that they're corporate stooges.

[DentistD1G]

EGYPTIANS STARTED WITH 200 GUYS ON FB . GO FOR IT GUYS .

arabs dictators use tanks , american dictators use $ .

btw , arabs were brushed aside by media when it all started in Tunisia .

[4me2cclearly]

My channel will feature all Occupy Wall Street videos until this is over.

Can't wait to see what Fox has to say about this. If it ever says anything at all.

[tylerdaneswart]

sss

[The99messenger]

What a bunch of idiots. Don't you know the crash happened because the subprime mortgage holders didn't pay their mortgages? TYT

[watchclassics]

@The99messenger you are sorely miseducated. educate yourself about derivatives!

[xRSECxILLUMINATIx]

Damn, I got the top comment, wish I would've said more on the topic but w/e...PLEASE CENK COVER IT MORE

[Silents30]

Anna should go there as a reporter and occupy wallstreet

[Silents30]

Thank You

[HONORGUARD308]

Ok gigantor alien, now that we have desided to keep you you need a real name. . i vote fluffy.. FLUFFY the alien that only loves.

[jman2avatar]

There's an event happing in Boston on Friday, does that count?

[anonymityismyname]

Thank you Ana for being the only news media outlet covering this. It's reasons like this why I am a TYT for lifer now.

[kazooga1234]

there are also people from other countrys who have donated money for food and sam seder went to the protest in NY and ha bisky upload

[blackmagicc1]

OCCUPY WALL STREET YEEEEEEEEEEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dfg93353]

they should have occupied the federal reserve! Americans are so foolish. You think this is just in America? Look at Societe GEneral in France, look at Greece, look at Ireland. The same thing is happening internationally. This is a Globalist financial cartel. OPEN YOUR EYES! AUDIT OR ABOLISH THE FEDERAL RESERVE!!

[Zuriki09]

Wish I could participate, but unfortunately, I'm from the UK.

[RustyRazor2010]

Protests without principles = NO MEDIA COVERAGE (most of the time)

[jwdesign336]

Lets take back America for the middle class!

[laurasIs2c]

Anna you are wonderful and all of America can love you and they are all impacted by the crap...Please invite everyone to participate.

[RedNYello505]

It's time for am American Revolution!!!!!

[killpath]

haha Occupy Wall Street is for hippies

[Doan84]

@killpath no, it's for ppl who care for their nations health

[MrMurraypants]

Where are all the independent media outlets during this protest?! You guys (TYT) need field reporters actually down there in the pits interviewing the shit out of the banksters and wall street junkies.

[tytuniversity]

@MrMurraypants We just started TYT U. Eventually we'll have student correspondents across the country who can report on stuff like this. You can do your part by telling your friends/family/coworkers who are students to start submitting videos.

[ElegeantFencer]

@tytuniversity Ok Ana!!! :D If that is you Ana?

[KingZeekey]

@tytuniversity

tell Randy Gonzalez!

[mmatvnetful]

@MrMurraypants Sounds good in YouTube comment theory.. only problem with that is it costs $100,000/year minimum to have a fulltime correspondent. & that's not with the logistics behind a mainstream field reporter, .. which would probably be more like $250,000/year.

[boricuamm707]

@MrMurraypants TYT probably doesn't have the budget or resources to do something like that.

[skyhookman]

Great job TYT. Help bring the American Spring!!!!

[And181377]

Everybody call the guy who pepper sprayed the two female protestors. His phone number (518) 989-9051.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

FINALLY! Thank you for asking. There has been a media blackout on this in the US. I haven't seen a single blip of information on the subject on TV in the state of Georgia.

[LadySeraph]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Atlanta is going to be one of the occupied cities, you should go!

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@LadySeraph I don't have an insured vehicle anymore. I'd have to call one of my buddies to drive into the middle of nowhere to pick me up and take me out there. I'm not about to be that kind of a burden.

[LadySeraph]

@bamboo4tameshigiri You can't take a train or anything?  You can always find them on facebook and look for someone else going to give you a ride.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@LadySeraph Call me when the combat breaks out. Until then, its not worth my effort.

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

@bamboo4tameshigiri wow I have never heard something that gay in my entire life. people must hate you

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@SeriouslyPissedOff I hope they do. Waving signs is only getting you laughed at by millionaires who own the police. Call me when you need an anarchist to teach you the art of war. I'm not going to waste my time until combat breaks out. Then I'll be on the front line. 

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Do you know why I don't believe you? To me its obvious that no anarchist with an ounce of courage would 'wait' for fighting to break out. Any true anarchist that isn't just a fat kid on the computer all day would break the combat out himself if he felt the time was right. With the situation you just mentioned, I'd say that time has long past. So where are these belligerent anarchists? Mostly in basements playing video games. So I'd wager we're fucked.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@SeriouslyPissedOff I'm not about to go get arrested for some stupid protest that won't change anything. Let some lead fly. I'll be there in an hour.

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Wow, really? Of all the excuses I expected. You're not an anarchist. You're a coward. In fact, you're the PROBLEM with the country, not some kind of rebel solution. That attitude is one of nothing but a loser. You say you're ready to fire some guns at humans but...you're afraid of being arrested? Seriously, it's nerds like you that fuck us into stagnation. I'm comforted by the fact that those protesters are doing more than you ever will to help this country.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@SeriouslyPissedOff Cute little troll. I'll show up with my bug out bags, triage and combat, just as soon as it starts.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@bamboo4tameshigiri And I will not be on the side of the bankers or the police. And my toys are better than theirs. My lacrimatory agents are more powerful, my stingballs have my own personal formula, and I only use Russian armor piercing rounds, if not jacketed hollow points- depending on target. When you little hippie bastards are ready to stop being laughed at and start fighting, I'll be there on the front line.

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Beautiful but all too common cop-out. Well done. Just go back to your call of duty game. Thats the closest to real steel you'll ever feel.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@SeriouslyPissedOff Cute, considering I field stripped my rifle for basic maintenance just 2 days ago.

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

@bamboo4tameshigiri You're still here? Anarchist vigilantes don't have more pressing matters? I'll bet you have one gun. Just a simple rifle. And you take it to the shooting range every Sunday where your father teaches you how to hold it. Honestly, I don't think you've ever killed anything before. Animes don't count.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@SeriouslyPissedOff Its been 10 years since my Father taught me to pop watermelons at 500yrds with iron sights. Thank for the memory though. I remember the VW beetle sized plywood target we we had set up @500yrds. I remember dumping those 30 rounds rapid fire and only 2 of them missing the board with my folding stock Russian made AK. Ammo's too expensive to play with like that these days, but you'd be surprised when you buy it by the crate.

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Are you older than 20? If so, you should have omitted the '10 years ago'. Popping watermelons is an amusing thought though. So tell me then, if you're such a skilled shooter than what's preventing you from firing the first shot? What if someone with terrible aim ends up taking the job and hit's an innocent? Then it's kind of bull shit. Why would one with so much skill be such a passive 'fighter' I wonder.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@SeriouslyPissedOff "...what's preventing you from firing the first shot?" Honor. A thing of which most police officers under Sgt. Do not have. I have honor and I swore and oath. Some of us forget about that sometimes; orders become the norm. Just remember who gives the orders. If the orders are dishonorable, carrying them out is the same.

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

@bamboo4tameshigiri I absolutely agree with that. I wonder about what oath you swore though..that sounds interesting. Personally I don't see much honor in swearing fealty to anything besides yourself and your community. If you have the freedom, please explain your oath. if not, no problem I'll just be curious here.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@SeriouslyPissedOff I've done everything in my power to put that life behind me. I'm not exactly proud of it. I'm not exactly happy about all the religious lies and patriotic nonsense I was indoctrinated with. I'm not proud that I supported George W. Bush when he illegally stole a presidential election. I hate the young man I used to be. It doesn't fucking matter anymore and no one really cares.

[FloydIV]

@bamboo4tameshigiri HAHAHAH the "art of war"... Silly. What you gonna do? Super glue the banks shut? Spray paint some words on the side of the wall? Smash some cars?

You anarchists are silly people.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@FloydIV I was thinking more along the lines of chlorine gas in the ventilation shafts and thermite on the electrical boxes.

[FloydIV]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Good luck with that ;) I guess everyone's a dreamer

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@FloydIV I trained with the neonazis, the same who went on to become "blackwater". They fully trained the wrong man. I couldn't care less about authority or wealth. This country has abandoned everything I was brainwashed to believe ever existed in the first place.

[FloydIV]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Neonazis? The same people who are butt hurt over Hitler and how their "Aryan blood" being pure isn't true?

Yeah sure, but your also brainwashed that your plans would actually work. If anything, your just benefiting the media, giving them more views which gives them more money. Then once your captured or dead, maybe.. you'll be made into a documentary for the Discovery Channel.

Bravo

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@FloydIV "Militia". I can even give you GPS coordinates to rid the world of some of their GOP terrorist training camps.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@FloydIV You're thinking small. My life's story could make for a feature film.

[FloydIV]

@bamboo4tameshigiri Nah. Documentary. I don't Shoko Asahara had a feature film ;)

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@FloydIV I even trained with Vietnam's most decorated soldier. He gave me my first troy ounce of silver for outstanding performance. I was pen pals and even went on a date with Randy Weaver's daughter, after they slaughtered half his family. I'm in a weird sort of limbo. I have ALL of the training, I've seen their inside machinations and yet I despise them all the same. I'm a free agent, finally. No one gives me order but me. And I now side with the people. Fuck the rich and powerful.

[xRSECxILLUMINATIx]

Tell Cenk to cover Occupy Wall St. More. 80 ppl got arrested.

[SDub817]

@xRSECxILLUMINATIx Arrested for what?

[payasoinfeliz]

[schwoogie78]

@payasoinfeliz well put forth some effort and work harder

[payasoinfeliz]

@schwoogie78 im not gonna play that corrupt game. im going to change it!

[schwoogie78]

@payasoinfeliz good luck with that...ill give you hippies this much...at least your not as annoying as the westboro baptist church...almost...but not quite

[payasoinfeliz]

@schwoogie78 GOD HATES WALL STREET

[schwoogie78]

@payasoinfeliz god hates whiny college kids too

[payasoinfeliz]

@schwoogie78 nah, thats a false idol youre talking about.

[ZiqqiPH]
