[biofuhrer]

finally america is waking up,what goes around comes around on their government

[DelaneyRene23]

I'm a journalist doing an independent film to aired on PBS. I'm covering Occupy on the West Coast in the Bay Area, CA. Was wondering if could use this video as a NY reference. You of course would be attributed. Let me know if somethin you can do. email me delaneyrene@yahoo.com

[ReporterWorldNews]

@DelaneyRene23 At this moment I don't want to have my video used especially for MSM or PBS. I am unemployed, have massive student loans and I am trying to make a living. I appreciate what you are doing, but at the moment I am not interested. Initially had taken these videos and I am still videotaping it because this is something I believe in.

[SuperAmazingPower]

HI, I'M NOT FROM THE US, BUT I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED SO THESE PROTESTS HAD BEGUN, THANKS....

[ReporterWorldNews]

@SuperAmazingPower so far there have been a lot of people going to the protest and yesterday from what I heard there were 10,000 people occupying Times Square - NYC in what may have been the largest of these protest yet. There was also a protest at 1 Police Plaza a few weeks ago with 5,000? people attending. The first day the press did not cover this for a few weeks. Now the newspapers are starting to cover it slowly but surely and they are somewhat fair.

[ReporterWorldNews]

@xSwift2strikex Yes there were 80+ people arrested yesterday/saturday. Search "80 occupy wall street" and you should be able to find some videos on what happened.

[Tafari6061]

[blackmagicc1]

[JasionJones]

Protesting does nothing. 

[BatusaiJack]

@JasionJones wasn't it protesting that toppled Mubarak and a host of other North African leaders?

[skb0rzn]

[bby2102]

[MrDrossel81]

Hi from Libya, Egypt, Syria!!!

[egderegor]

@MrDrossel81 No the CIA did not start this protest this one is real.

[MrDrossel81]

@egderegor As we say in Russia "For that fought for it and ran"

[ironmancwb]

wow they are in a fucking park eating pizza

[pretorious700]

Interesting-when protests are against government spending, the protestors are demonized as "tea baggers", but when it's against Wall Street, it's noble. Guess what people-it's the same structure stealing you blind!!!

[jasonbutler419]

@pretorious700: If the "Tea Baggers" (as a whole) kept it to being about government spending instead of so often inaccurately calling anything they disagreed with, "socialism," maybe they wouldn't be "demonized."

[aquariuscomfort]

@pretorious700 For one thing it was the Tea Party who called themselves Tea Baggers on Fox News. Even Obama called them Tea Baggers, and there was nothing derogatory about the name, only a harmless nickname. Than someone in the Tea Party decided to turn it around and play victim. It was the Tea Party that made the term derogatory not Liberals. Plus Tea Baggers are bought by corporations, and are an astro turfed organization bought by the Koch Brothers. Get you facts straight.

[egderegor]

@aquariuscomfort Both parties are the same. They work for War Inc. War profiters control America and the military. 9/11 was a military cue and I don't see us getting America back.

[aquariuscomfort]

@egderegor yes you are correct. Unfortunately due to our voting system I have to vote for the lessor of two evils. The only way this is going to change is if they overhaul our voting system to allow more than one vote and allow us to vote from best to worst. Only than can the majority of people really have their voice heard.

[egderegor]

@aquariuscomfort Does not the fact that the News is not covering this show people that they are all bought and paid for. That is State Run Media.

[aquariuscomfort]

@pretorious700 Plus the Tea Party were supposedly created to protest high taxes during a time when we have the lowest taxes? Why was the Tea Party they created again? When Obama took the reins it was the same tax cuts from Bush. If they are against government spending than why are they not on Wall Street? This is where all of our money is going. Why did they not protest against Bush and his spending and military spending? Why did they not protest the Wall Street Bail Outs. Because they are FAKE!

[egderegor]

@aquariuscomfort Obama was elected so we could go into Africa no white man could have don that.

[LAVIN20]

The revolution apparently will not be televised

[IP0Monsturd]

@LAVIN20 Only astroturf revolutions manned by rent-a-mobs will not be televised.

[aquariuscomfort]

@IP0Monsturd Than why is the Tea Party televised? The Tea Party was created to protest against high taxes first of all during a time of the lowest taxes? What??! Does this make any sense? Bought by the corporations on Wall Street. if they are against government spending than why did they not protest Bush and his Wall Street bail outs, or the enormous military spending? They keep changing the reason for their existence cause intelligent people see through this astroturf.
