700 people arrested tonight. Clearly a much bigger deal then the main stream media wants to admit.

Anybody have any first hand accounts? Would like to hear it if anyone does.

My sources predict a much, much larger crowd. I don't involve myself in those things, but I do think people in this country are too passive as a whole. I think the best bet is to get your news and first-hand information from youtube. Unfortunately, the independent youtube "journalist" is probably better than your CNN corporate ***** these days.

*Citydata automatically edited my post. Insert the name for a person who society frowns upon and rimes with "store", "more" and "bore".

One or two may even have committed a crime.

From what I hear, many hundreds have occupied, protested peacefully, drummers drummed in drum circles, airline pilots joined in recently, yet the media and news networks have been purposely ignoring this.

Ah no....The average Joe who borrowed more than he could afford to buy a house.

While banks and mortgage companies didn't do right by qualifying those who really didn't quality, the people who borrowed should have known better.
