You've posted this, but you don't seem inclined to defend it, one might ask what the point was?

There's around 30 replies to this, the friendliest of which might be called 'lukewarm' at best, and in your own profile you go out of your way to make clear you are part of the Occupy movement. Yet you don't seem interested in justifying anything in this post that others have objected to, basically a hit-n-run post. You've got 30 replies and you've got a sequel thread by another openly mocking this one with even more and you haven't said anything at all.
Now considering that one of the major objections expressed about Occupy is that its members have no coherent platform or logical and debatable goals, you're only reinforcing that viewpoint by having basically come in with a megaphone, shouted your piece, then left. Why should we care to adjust our views about the Occupy movement if one of its own members can't be bothered to provide clarifications but rather just resorts fire-and-forget flame posts? You have probably, single-handedly, damaged your own movement with this single post more than any good you may have done your cause standing out in the cold, especially if this is representative of your style.

I agree with that. However, many seem to think that means it's OK to beat them up.

They have to be doing something else before you can lawfully arrest them.

Then they should be doing what the police say. Because that's the law. *NM*
