Before there was Occupy Wall Street there was Tahrir Square. Many worldwide believe Tahrir Square played a major role in influencing the Occupy Wall Street movement. We speak to Christina Gonzalez, an Occupy Wall Street protester, who was at both demonstrations. We compare the Egyptian demonstration to the current American movement.

    Is rioting the correct way to express your discontent?

    "Yes! You wouldn't be talking to me now if we didn't riot, would you?"

    TV reporter from Britain's ITV had no response. So the young man pressed his advantage. "2 months ago we marched to Scotland Yard, more than 2,000 of us, all blacks, & it was peaceful & calm & you know what? Not a word in the press. Last night a bit of rioting & looting & look around you."

  • Viva Raul Castro !!!!

    Viva Cuba !!!!

  • fuck this "end the fed" bullshit, ows is about holding people accountable on wall street/private banksters. reform comes after accountability.

  • @PurplexSour I think maybe the person who said this was close to the truth.. or worked for your enemies. As long as we function in a monetary system everything will always be corrupted.. The good will be twisted .. good human qualities subverted and the worst traits of humans which every philisophical and religious system or common sense encourage you to keep an eye on are encouraged daily here.. greed, envy, anger, delusion.. separation... maybe "money is the root of inferior thinking" ?

  • Sick earrings! Although I think pot leaf earrings would've done this Russian TV spot so more justice. Occupy Everything!

  • @PurplexSour um the bible already established it....for the LOVE of money is the root of all evil..so who is K-Rino?...i say the above quote all the time..u act like it's original lol

  • @Mandama004 Well, I've never heard of a 'Scout Division' the more you talk the more I realize you are full of shit.

  • @MaxamillianArturo when you were stationed where you say.

    Turns out, that is the Scout division.

    Nice try, though. Expect to be called in for a meeting about representing the military in a respectful way.

  • @Mandama004 well when the hell did they make me a Scout?

  • @MaxamillianArturo thank you for the information.

    I just contacted their office, and they put me through to the legal department. It turns out, since you said "we just shoot those people" and you were referring to the military (you are not legally able to represent the military in this way), then the act is punishable.

    Also, you are simply a Scout who holds no rank and your "experience" at the base is not really helping anybody.

  • @Mandama004 No, Im actually in the military. Stationed at Fort Riley a 19kilo thats Tanker for non-tanking fucks like you. Hooah?
