Mayday
 
As humans, we tend to identify with a smaller group
(sect, political party, etc.) which I think is most of the problem;
this inevitably is perceived as a wall to others.

So, while I have reservations about "the 99%,"
I think this point is somewhat reinforced by their moniker,
in this case, and I note that tomorrow is slated to be
a busy day for them. I'm guessing the heightened activity
tonight is prolly on their acct., and note how they are changing the conversation.

I'm also impressed that they seem determined to do things
non-violently, even offering NVC (non-violent comm) training.
I wondered how this is going over in the Bible belt.

I always thought it was "May the Schwartz be with you...", at least according to Mel Brooks.

Yes, it's all over Fox, of course, despite the overwhelming majority of demonstrations were peaceful; the mayor of Portland thanking the demonstrators for a good job, etc.

Just count them occupiers like Korresh is a Christian,
or Osama was a Muslim. I have pigs that fly.
There are several thousand people on earth,
right now, who claim to be Christ.

the point being they said they were "occupiers,"
so Fox said they claimed to be occupiers,
so now to you they are occupiers,
until you realize that none of them is
known in the occupy movement--
and even then., you may hold to your
initial pov there for any number of reasons.

What, 99% isn't closer than where you are now?
Their enemies are your enemies.
