If they won't allow you to sleep, then go into shifts where you always have an equal number of people on the street while the remainder goes home to rest.

These people should be working rather than on the street acting like a bunch of spoonfed crybabies. They want the government to bail THEM out! A bunch of freeloaders who now have an excuse (the economy) as to why they can't work. Bullshit. Arrest them all. A bunch of loonies in the street cannot change the way things are in the world. Don't BITCH about the economy when YOU"RE NOT EVEN CONTRIBUTING TO IT!

@TheAngryarchangel 1960s african civil rights was a rare worthwhile protest.

vietnam war protests PROLONGED THE WAR---cause most protesters were anti-american, calling usa soldiers "baby killers."

look up hanoi jane smiling with the viet cong ready to kill usa soldiers.

hanoi jane and her liberals also denied the cambodian holocaust at the time it was happening, just because the killers were liberal.

these are the reasons 1960s ex-liberals voted for reagan

and why obama is done

@monk22yrs at least they are out DOING something instead of bitching about it with their friends on friday whilst getting drunk. most of us just whine about what the banks are doing. i say right on to the protesters. if people didnt protest, then we would still have "colored" restrooms and water fountains. we would, also, still be killing the vietnamese.

@TheAngryarchangel i don't own a radio, tv, or car...i did tho grow up in 1960s/70s.

1968 chicago democratic convention riots----helped get nixon elected.

chicago 7 rioter jerry rubin eventually became...a stock broker.

i live in poconos, visited nyc often---nyc liberals protest against something, every other week!

in 1980s new york liberals protested AGAINST cleaning up times square child porn.

protesting is a phase kids go through.

all these protests really against obama

[TheAngryarchangel]

@monk22yrs you've been listening to the radio and the news too much. these people are against the crimes that wall st and the fed have committed. is that so hard to understand?
