Occupy Wall Street



Hey Bloggers, or whoever could be reading this blog. Wall Street is closed, I think... as protesters march to Occupy Wall Street. And I know Wall Street is occupied because this facebook event and that CNN Money, Wall Street closed as protesters YouTube video that finds itself embedded disabled by request and not posted above, or is it posted above, says so. And the description of that Facebook event reads something like "All day occupation (possibly longer) of Wall Street to oppose in numbers the corruption, financial treachery, oligarchy, and forced debts imposed on us by an irresponsible and unapproachable Wall Street (world financial center) sister protests may also take place in similar California Financial Centers if enough interest is shown. This is a peaceful protest and violence will not be tolerated." And also another Occupy Wall Street Facebook event that reads something like "The Occupation Has Begun. Join us at Zuccotti Park (Liberty St & Trinity Place) in NYC beginning on September 17, we want to see 20,000 people flood into lower Manhattan, set up tents, kitchens, peaceful barricades and occupy Wall Street for a few months. Once there, we shall incessantly repeat one simple demand in a plurality of voices". And the description of that YouTube video reads something like "Three years after Lehman's collapse, hundreds of protesters gathered to 'Occupy Wall Street', forcing the NYPD to close some streets." And that video seems to Occupy Wall Street speak for itself. And what, if anything, does this have to do with a No Police State? Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.

No work on weekends at Wall St so I have no idea why the protest began on the 17th. Lets roll during the work week. Peace!

you cant stop the machine and they will kill us all before we can reclaim our country. Keep it up and you will have another so called natural disaster or terrorist attack

Why not march nude so at least the protest is somewhat interesting?

This story is BORING. Do something radical, otherwise, CNN will no longer cover the story.

Something radical? Peaceful civil disobedience is the cornerstone of positive change....think MLK, Ghandi, Mandela???

What would you have them do? Rob fort Knox? btw CNN doesn't matter, we have taken back the news through social media, I doubt anyone in this movement watches that crap.

P.s. Did you happen to notice that this has grown into an international movement? WITHOUT "radical" actions to entertain you.

It started on Sept. 17th because it is US Constitution Day.
