Occupy San Diego Riders Raid Malls, Port
"If you love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animated contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands that feed you; may your chains set lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were ever our countrymen." Samuel Adams— December 27, 2011 5:28 p.m.
Occupy San Diego Riders Raid Malls, Port
I find it sad and telling that so many people in our society use logical means to justify the immoral behavior that we force upon one another. These same people also split hairs to find any fault with those that are speaking out against this wrong doing. Civil disobedience is a time honored means for oppressed people to air there grievances. The Boston tea party being one of the first in our country. There are many more examples that our nations history shows us of this kind of behavior. Occupy is no different and certainly not perfect, it is a cross section of our culture for both good and ill. I can assure you that the "organizers" are not up in some corner office over looking the plaza hatching schemes. Bottom line Big money influence in our government has gotten out of control, our country is becoming polarized by purposeful media disinformation, and our rights as citizens and workers are being steadily stripped from us. All the while the bankers, wall street speculators , mega corps, and there stooges in government are gaining more power and money. If you would like to stand in the background and harp on those that would try to make some positive change then you are a part of the problem. It must be realized that there are many different levels of commitment in this movement and the tempo changes by the hour. This is the perfect time to practice patience, inn acting the changes you can and being changed in the process.— December 27, 2011 5:22 p.m.
