Don't let the police mingle in violence. Use your camera, your camcorders and your Internet. Recording everything!!! Recording every cop who wants to use violence. Chicago is going to be one of our major cities to show our numbers and our voices. You must make us loud & clear with number. We just have to show up all the time, reform is expected. Prepare how and what we want the reform. Don't let them hijack or wash down. Be determine! This is for your kids and for the future of this country .

We need to get rid of using banking credit cards, going back to cash temporarily until we succeed in our occupy.It would be the first thing we should do. Cash our checks at the banks that are printed on the checks....until further notice...... Business owners we hope its only temporary !

Chicago has enough workers to do everything that needs to be done in Chicago.

America has enough workers to do everything that needs to be done in America.

Put America back to work.

We need a WPA style jobs program.

Works Project Administration--- Put America back to work.

@kevinisek2009 WHERE!?.

[smartbarley]

@kevinisek2009 I have not made myself out to be a fool. It is you who is blaming the corporation for your health failures, family, car, and home. They have nothing to do with the problem. It's all your mistakes and you have to learn and live from it. I have wrote the truth while you are looking for an escape goat. You caused this on yourself and you should have nobody to blame but yourself. If you love them so much, go out and protest with them instead of putting your hate on youtube.

[kevinisek2009]

@smartbarley Yet again you have made a fool out of yourself. What you have wrote is exactly the same as blaming a child for being molested. Blaming the weak for what the strong have done to them is not acceptable.

[smartbarley]

@kevinisek2009 I have yet to make myself the fool. How is it that the corporations have taken you car, home, family, and health. Those are all actions you have done yourself. Nobody can literally take away your family or health. It's not like they gave you cancer or told your wife you were cheating on her. These are all actions you have done yourself and looking for someone to blame. It is you who are are the fool here for thinking you can blame your problems on someone else.

[kevinisek2009]

I saw a vid today of people dragging three dead cops down the street. Crazy.

[kevinisek2009]

@smartbarley If the corporations would not have taken my car, home, family and health, then I would be down there. Don't jump to conclusion; you have made a fool out of youself.

@blueapple461 failed countless times over and over again. And now how many of these private individuals can donate over $2500 on campaign donations in this troubling economy? Well so far all the socialist bums protest mutiple cause that really have nothing to do with wall street. Such as gay marriage rights, transgender rights, etc. All the crap that has nothing to do with wall street. Just listen to them sometime and they go on about rights and bills and it does nothing to the wall street cause

[smartbarley]

@blueapple461 You are very lost to the rules of money in this great nation. Private individuals can donate more then $2500 per campaign. In truth, most tend to exclude that from their taxes or just donate on the side. You don't need to be in a corporate company to donate so much. If you really want to talk about a corrupt nation on the western world, just look at countries in Europe such as Greece. America is no where near corrupt as Europe. Their whole economic system is Socialism which has...

[blueapple461]

@smartbarley It defeats the idea of Democracy and turns the country into an oligarchy. Corporations are not people and it is bullshit that private individuals can only donate $2500 to a campaign, while a corporation can donate as much as they want. America remains the most corrupt nation of the western world, and this is why.

[blueapple461]

@smartbarley First off, I know my history, you should stop this whole "I'm better than you because I sit and tell people off on youtube" montage you have going on.

Again, many of the people at occupy hold Bachelors and master degrees.

If you actually got off your condescending ass and went to the protest you would know people are protesting the system, not the people who used the system and did well. The whole corporation deciding what goes on in DC because they have money is egregious.

[smartbarley]

@UrNoFuN929 Well your grammar would be in today's society.

[smartbarley]

@Sammyjackson1488 Or jobs apparently.

[smartbarley]

@kevinisek2009 How is that again? If you really want to show your stuff, you could always sit out there in the cold with them. I think it's below 60 degrees there and it drops a lot when the sun goes away. If you really want to show your support, go down there instead of cheering them on here.

[smartbarley]

@watterfalls2 Yah cause obviously carrying cash is much safer then carrying around plastic. Boy you really have thought of everything haven't you. If someone mugs you carrying around hundreds...oh boy oh boy your never gonna see that around vs bank cards where you can report it stolen and you will still have your money. Sorry to say this, but if people are really gonna do that, then Chicago should allow us to carry handguns again without an issue. Robbers rob people who aren't protected. Like u.

[smartbarley]

@IsaiahkOlson If fact, what this is all about, is people who don't want to go to school or want to succeed in life trying to lower what everyone else makes. Does that sound fair that if a doctor went through 7 years or more of school that he should make the same that a GED guy makes working at McDonalds? No, but people like you want the easy way out and want it to be fair for everyone, too bad. That's not how the world works. Just look at history for example.

[smartbarley]

@IsaiahkOlson Hey I don't think people should be getting raises either in this depression, but it's not the wealthy's fault. People like you are generalizing that ALL wealthy people are corrupt while the "innocent" poor people and middle class are the saints here. If you want this little protest to work, focus on one main issue and start actually saying whose corrupt and whose not. Because not all wealthy people are corrupt. That's like generalizing that all black people like chicken.

The Awakening is accelerating exponentially!

Federal Reserve we are coming for you! You reign is close to the END-

[kevinisek2009]

You guys make me so f***ing proud to be an American. Thank you. I love you all.

[Sammyjackson1488]

How in the fuck can people have so much time to waste that they can go to these jackass assemblies and act like five-year-olds? Man, you guys got the life!
