    Is that still going on? I thought it ended months ago. Is it just the name of a protest group now or are they really still “occupying” space somewhere?

    Can’t imagine anything I would want to do less…

    What do they want? What I see online is uneducated counterproductive demands. Gimme gimme gimme.

    There point is still important yet their organization and leadership is lacking and poor. Tnis is a fact PP

    Perhaps you guys should attend the meeting and hear from the people directly involved. You might be surprised that they are a little more informed and intelligent than the bumper sticker politics that inform a large part of our population.

    I agree with Fredtate. This is a perfect opportunity for people to learn about this movement. I’ll be there!

    The Occupy movement is important. It’s people standing up to the corporations (and complicit politicians) that are running the show for their own profit at the expense of public well-being.

    Here’s the original Occupy Wall Street Declaration:

    I’ve been involved with #OccupySeattle since early October.
    a.) it ain’t what the media tells you
    b.) there’s more going on than sleeping in a park
    c.) I’ve yet to meet any “dirty hipies”
    d.) I *have* meet smart, articulate, passionate people; my neighbors
    e.) the more I participate in #Occupy, the more I want to do

    my two cents worth. YMMV

    Is B. Obama a “complicit polititian” since he gets alot of his money from Wall Street?

    Tonights event was very informative. A great turn out of about 30- 40 people. I look forward to the next meeting in 2 weeks. There are many ways to get involved. I particularly liked “Get Money Out Of Politics”. I will attend the meeting on Sunday.

Sorry, comment time is over.
