Occupy OKC Mic Checks Wal-Mart on Black Friday

[Daviepo1]

As much as I agree that walmart and McDonald's are big business pushing the little guy out... They do provide jobs.. They may not be the best, but it beats the people being on welfare... But you hippy tree huggers need to get a job and get a life.. You guys really suck.. I hate seeing this kind of stuff.. You are all hypocritical idiots... And those who bitch about cops and law enforcement... Next time you are getting robbed, raped, assaulted or anything else... Don't call the cops.. Call one o

[DonnaEberhardt]

#1 They were totally wrong with what they did. If they want to protest they need to check the laws. If you don't like a store just don't go there. Leave the innocent people who like this store alone. They didn't come out to listen to a bunch of fools yelling crap.

[JuanOfaKind88]

I think the whole "we are the 99%" chant loses some credibility when the rest of the 99% are to busy shopping at MaoMart, don't blame the suits, blame the damn sheep who keep stuffing their fat faces.

[ridewave444]

Two words. Fuck Wal-Mart.

[mindhead]

and surprisingly.....people continue to shop

[AwesomeZombie89]

Great job guys!!!

[GodotheInfantry]

@NoMAIG Of course not. You know damned well that no reasonable person could support those things. However, the people in Occupy are not reasonable people. They are morons. They are people that expect something for nothing. They call for the collapse of the capitalist system. They riot, shit in the streets, fuck like rats in the gutter, and obstruct normal people trying to do their Christmas shopping. I will NEVER support these Marxist, hippie, pieces of human waste.

[Kiowarider]

@bittersweetlexie yeah ppl speekin out made u work long hours sorry bittersweet but u dnt make since if u cared 1 bit about ur kids u would speek up too thr will b no world for ur kids maby instead of b n bitter at the movement u need to look into urself why things ain't goin right in your life but we OWS are here for u! Peace sister

[Kiowarider]

@Godotheinfantry ur brothers and sisters are fighting for the human race to survive and all u got to say is get a job do u kno them personaly bc they got an opinion their jobless u run along and b a sheep whr gonna b involved in revalution critical thinking no more will we bow to the machine but my guess is u think it's gods plan for us to destroy whn the ppl kill thr selfs the earth will still b here without us! Peace brother

[billiepaige93]

As much as I dislike Occupy OKC, I love this. I love you, Jay. That was brave. You guys made people think. I am very proud of you for still standing strong. All of you know what you stand for and I respect that very much.

[GodotheInfantry]

This is in Oklahoma City? Wow, I'm surprised no one walked up and knocked a few of these morons out. I would have. Occupy a job, you disgusting hippie retards!

[laneyramon08]

Thanks for posting this video! Im going to that walmart now just because they have some sexy ass managers there!

[bittersweetlexie]

On behalf of the associates at this Walmart I'd like to thank these occupiers for causing more work and chaos for us. It's bad enough that we have to control the regular customers who shopped on Black Friday, but also clean up after the half-ass protest these people thought would make a difference. Thanks for not allowing us to spend time with our families because we had to work even later to clean up the mess you left. :)

[Dlanorepmart]

Thank you very much Oklahoma City Occupiers!!!! You are the real Americans here. Not the sheriff's people or WalMart. Thank you again!!!

[SnowAngelGirl73]

How about "occupy getting a dang job"! idiots

[bacchus1975]

@SnowAngelGirl73 I thin, if you shut your television off, and actually went down to an occupation and spoke with the folks there you'd realize how stupid your comment is. And how stupid you are for allowing your opinions to be formed for you.

[oklahomaisok]

If they don't like it then they don't have to shop there. They can vote with their feet.

[shoeboxchris]

@irr3v As soon as the Occupy movement realizes that the planet is controlled by one central bank it doesn't matter how many protests happen. They control the economy, do your research on the Bilderberg group, and the Council on Foreign Relations and who the members are. You will be mad I guarantee you. Democrats and Republicans are all members and they are puppets of the Bilderbergs. This is what is really going on. If your movement upsets them they can throw the economy any way they like, Truth

[shoeboxchris]

@irr3v The occupation won't work and I don't care how much noise it makes. The Federal government is controlled by the Federal Reserve Bank which is not "Federal" at all. The Federal Reserve is owned privately by multiple International bankers. They are controlled by the Builderberg Group who flys under the radar as the Council on Foreign Relations. These are the people that control gas, oil, interest rates etc. This has been going on forever, look it up. Protests don't work, your out numbered.

[twistfinger]

At least post what they said or use subtitles. Ih ave no idea what is going on.

[shoeboxchris]

@irrv3v So your upset because....??? What about the small business owners in New York that couldn't do business because the street was clogged with occupiers and those that came into their store only wanted to use the restroom. How do you think they feel??? They were loosing their business's because of the occupation. I have walked into a few of these occupations and asked "Whats Going on?" it's a loaded question and I received the dumbest answers. #1 " I saw a bunch of people here"

[shoeboxchris]

The Occupy movement is Sheep mentality at it's finest.

[irr3v]

@shoeboxchris It's quite the opposite. These people have woken up and are trying to wake up the nation of sheep who still have their T.V.s on.

[irr3v]

@shoeboxchris Anyone can mic check. OWS protesters aren't blindly following anyone. They follow their own intuitions.

[irr3v]

@shoeboxchris It just so happens to be that a shitton of people have the same intuitions.

[samanthajoanstevens1]

There are people that need jobs were I live. Teach me how to make all that crap. 'll do it for penny's a day, cause a few penny's is better than no penny's i wish they would realize people here would work...

[truthforamerica]

Yet another example of the low life miscreants OWS are. They seem to not understand the elementary grade level concept that retail employees work for companies that sell stuff. Therefore, the businesses will want to make as much money as they can the one day of the year that will bring in the most money. They can't make as much the rest of the year because Obama has almost destroyed the private sector economy. These OWS idiots don't occupy jobs themselves, they are too lazy.

[bzobes87]

@truthforamerica

How can you say that the condition of our private sector is more that fault of obama than it is walmart? And further where do you get off insulting people just for maintaining a different political perspective than your own?

This is real political action and is anything but lazy. Easy to shit on passionate people from a keyboard. Head out to your local occupy and try having a conversation.

For the record I work full time and spend most my nights at occupy oakland.

[bzobes87]

And let me add, I hated tea party politics but nothing made me happier than seeing people expressing their political beliefs. Why cant you extent the same courtesy ?

[cmmmmmmmj]

if they dont feel that walmart treating them right, they can leave simple as that. people dont need to do what these people are doing, go work somewhere else then and let someone thats willing to work for 8 dollars work there

[beagle123ist]

Good for the protesters. Democracy is not a spectator sport. How ironic that the tools who defend Mall-Wart are the same people who keep Americans poor by celebrating offshored factories to Mexico and China. OWS and their affiliates are the REAL American patriots.

[OrionHeights167]

Walmart is open on Christmas day also. Walmart is probably one of the most Godless corporations. They dirve all the textile jobs to Mexico & China, then drive the prices down so no one else can compete, while still paying $8.00 an hour. Then when the economy goes to shit, they step up like there some exclusive shopping center, just like Mcdonalds is doing. They knew all along that the economy was going to shit. Why? because they were the architects of it.

[bigaljr01]

@OrionHeights167 Sorry to inform you, but your information on Wal-Mart being open on Christmas day is wrong. That happens to be the only day of the year that they actually are closed.

[Bruce1949919]

Occupy bothers Walmart because they are not Union. And we know the faggots at SEIU support OWS. We want the Unions out of our daily lives.

[Bruce1949919]

Occupy is Occupying the hand that feeds them. They are stupid A Holes.

[truthceeker1]

look at uncle ruckus and aunt ruckus at 1:51 and they thowing up the black power sign. what in the world

[dratuus]

The Occupy Movement is full of hipsters. Its a "trend" more than a movement.

Join Anon, its more of a movement than this crap.

And yes, I do understand Anon support The Occupy Movement.

[Tamales53]

FUCKING RETARDS!



[thebobhollyband]

Simple minded walmart folks, go home and watch some more football. And don't forget to stop at the dollar tree, and buy an american eagle made of plastic from china.

[thebobhollyband]

No without walmart millions of people would have jobs!

[mrsrenee06]

I work at Walmart! I get paid way more than I would anywhere else. Without Walmart millions of people wouldn't have jobs. And you say we are overworked and under paid but you guys coming in and shopping then leaving your baskets make us work harder for no reason! And Walmart just isn't for poor people lots of people shop at Walmart, from rich to not so rich. These people know they shop at Walmart all the time and shouldn't be protesting, because what other store is open 24 hours...EXACTLY!

[expatted]

the PIGS didn't crack any skulls. They're slipping

[edwardprzydzial]

morons...

[expatted]

Hurray.

#Occupy the fuck out of Walmart

[av8tor17b]

Too bad you can't understand what is said. Can you transcribe?

[turokdinosaurhunter6]

lol faulkingtruth

[turokdinosaurhunter6]

Wal-Mart Sucks!

[turokdinosaurhunter6]

Genius, and I'm sure worth every arrest. Woke up a mess of sheep with this tactic! Just Smashing!

[jth54321]

Glad you guys later got arrested in Del City....it's our right to buy cheaper things if we so choose. If we wanted to buy higher-priced local, we would have done it already.

[av8tor17b]

@jth54321 You buy products made by oppressed child labor in communist china. You support communists. I though right-wingers didn't like communist oppression. I guess I was wrong.

[YOUJUSTGOTTROLLED1]

fucking stupid america

[ugotcatfish]

@YOUJUSTGOTTROLLED1 fuck u fag u hate us cause you love us bitch u say that shit on  line cause your a pussy bitch

[LY8Ze7xK]

Nice of them to document their crimes. This will make the jobs of the prosecutors and plaintiff's attorneys much easier.

[MrCritic12]

@LY8Ze7xK Such an awful crime.

[mowgli2071]

@LY8Ze7xK Good, let the corporate-owned prosecutors prosecute. See how well that stops it. Let the corporate whores see who we are. See if that will make a dent in us.

[tcsdriver]

As long as people believe they "can't make a difference," no one tries. Good job, OKC. If one person standing in there thought, "I wonder why they're yelling? I think I'll research this," then it was a win.

[bigboydoody]

did you get some good deals while you were there

[Mikeslot111]

Congratulation on a great job, keep up the good work.

[suprhero]

can someone explain how they are the 99%? They are not even the 1% in the store.

[jj5098]

I love how you clowns "speak" for the people. Well the people you claim are so oppressed by these companies would you like to get the hell out of the way so they can get to work.

[MrCritic12]

@jj5098 Many of them are afraid to speak up.

[messybung]

It also seems arrogant to chant "We are the 99 percent" at Walmart workers and shoppers who are mostly poor, working class people. Can you blame them for scrambling to get discounted items for their families on Christmas that they couldn't otherwise afford? I think it would be best to present them with alternatives in a friendly way

[Emomomotional]

@messybung

I think it's going to take a few things that are a bit politically incorrect to get people to take notice. I am one of those working class poor people and I've been lazy and too cheap to spend an extra 20 bucks each time. I'm going to start looking for good alternatives in my community though. It took me getting yelled at to realize I was wasting my money

[Lynneym526]

@Emomomotional I completely agree and am doing the same :)

[Lynneym526]

@Emomomotional  I completely agree and am doing the same :)

[messybung]

@Emomomotional Yeah, I agree. I'm just worried that it might make people feel guilty about their shopping habits, and instead of embracing the message, they may get defensive.

[messybung]

The announcement was too muddled, I couldn't make out what was said. Is a transcript available? I support the movement, but think this tactic may not be very effective, possibly detrimental. Handing out leaflets and getting information to the people in a less confrontational way seems more appropriate.

[blearyeyed09]

Walmart is a ghastly place and ghastlier business concept. Everyone should have studied Reverend Billy's philosophy of STOP SHOPPING though. Maybe a "Black Friday De-Occupation" of these inhuman places would have worked better......

[ustatbot]

Sure march on private property, common sense. These occupy hippies are almost as moronic as Anonymous. Occupy is the new emo. I bet that camera was bought at WalMart!

[Riclists]

Just a bunch of whiny children making a scene. Waaaah! I have to work for my stuff! Waaaaah! You've worked your fingers to the bone all your life, give me your stuff! Waaaaah! I don't care if you worked hundred hour weeks for years to get your business off the ground! Give me your money! Waaaaah!

[Gene73115]

Looks like a whole lot of stupidity to me....

[Gene73115]

Looks like a lot of stupidity to me....

[bayoubell1]

walmart sux

pigs sux

[sonicstormer]

@bayoubell1

"The people who are the only thing standing between me and being robbed or killed suck." Great reasoning there jackass. The only reason the police got involved is because someone called them because a bunch of morons think they're entitled to protest INSIDE a private business. Outside would've been just fine, but you don't go in and disrupt a business. I'm glad they got arrested later that evening because they were quite simply a public menace. There is no argument there.

[bayoubell1]

Yes it helps, fuck Wal-Mart.  They were inconvenienced? Good.

[MystikSakura]

These guys are fucking idiots, yes, but not all occupiers are like that. Do some goddamn research before you discredit the whole movement because of some idiots.

[p7byrd]

Occupy movement = idiots, loons, and scumbags. And I'm as liberal as they come. But then I also notice these people are from Oklahoma. That explains alot.

[ustatbot]

@p7byrd Im in Oklahoma. That is just our 2% Democrats.

[photoguyhudson]

geuss what occupy fools across the nation. this is the day you lost big time, wou are outnumbered by shoppers!! take these occupy fools in the parking lot and burn them !!!

[EarthBus]

I applaud the balls it took, but ultimately, I don't think this was a helpful action. Would it have made a difference if people had gone into a Hitler-youth rally in 1934 and tried to convince them that they were being brainwashed?

No, they'd have been met with anger and hate and violence and it gives them cause to vilify all who want to put an end to the fascists' control of the US.

[welxje]

You are losing people's respect by coming in and making a mess.

[Blaze312]

If anyone knows the person who hits the cameraman at 1:23 please provide his details. Thank you.

[Daytripn]

Good job OKC! Too bad about Del City, we were headed to OKC for the flash mob when we heard about the arrests, we support you!!!!

[dhedric11]

Losers

[Conranify]

@dhedric11 wow, what an intelligent response. You clearly thought long and hard about that before your brain gave up.

[blackmesa176]

@dhedric11 Just go back to sleep... And go buy buy buy! WHOO good deals man!
