not everyone has the same point of view, but all are allowed to express thiers and has a right to do so.
IS that their ambition?
Lots of Snakes and SHILLS here on the forums who are desperately trying to make it look bad and change it.
everyone is talking and debating, and this helps the democratic process

Who in their right mind thinks that these protests will result in money going from the rich and given it to the poor. I mean that is the end result of the wishes of the protest isn't it?

So, it can only be discussed as long as you agree with it? No criticism allowed either?
Xploder, how do you feel about HangTheTraitors post?

The point of a protest is to get across a message. You dont protest abortions when you dont even know whats wrong.

Shouldnt the debating have taken place before the protest? And then those who agreed would have shown up?
At this point, if they come to an "official" message, then a lot of people will feel shafted that their original intention is not a focal point. Will they still support a message they do not believe in?

why?
everyone who protested knew there was something wrong......
they all had a small idea of what was wrong......
when they all got together as a comunity and talked.......
they got a much better idea of what was wrong..........
so at some point the thing that is acually wrong becomes clear to all that participate.
this is happening because people are no longer 1 person behind a computer,
they are one comunity trying to figuar out why it has been allowed to get as "wrong" as it is.
and in my opinon the longer people talk the more defined the "wrong" will be
so be patient and watch a real democracy of the people make a real change.

OWS and all of it's siblings, are but the scab on the wound.
It really wont change anything. The festering carrion is too entrenched. Rotting to the core.
This is how it is supposed to be. a global tribe of willing participants in an unwilling game of who's the richest.
Anything else is just a costume party.

it is only when people are debating and talking as a comunity that the issues raise themselves
by this i mean that people simply debating the issues as a comunity,
the issues will become clear to all involved.
debate by nature creates change

Hey, I thought of a nice question for you. Please dont dodge it.
If you absolutely had too decide on the message(Like you alone are a tie breaker) what would it be?
