Do you really claim that this is what OWS is about? One has nothing to do with the other.

You guys just want to silence OWS, yes or no??
So my post on C-D is going to silence OWS ?
Sorry, but the violence and vandalism in the MSM is doing more to harm OWS than my opinionated posts.

These people need to get their act together and stop the violence if they want to be taken seriously. Drugs, rape, smashed business windows is not aiding their cause.

No of course not, that is the task better suited for the people you admire, the ruling class. iit seems like that's what most anti OWS want. You'd guys would be happy if they would just shut up.

What gave you the idea that I'm anti-OWS ?

Here's a story of one OWS guy who is doing this the right way, within the law. But he's not getting the MSM attention is he ?
I'm totally behind what this guy is doing unlike those in NYC that whine about their broken drums and need for more blankets.

Default OWs protester gets violent

'Occupy Wall Street' Protester Throws Violent Fit In McDonald's When Denied Free Food | Fox News

The essence of the OWS "Movement." "I want, I'm entitled, and I'll get violent if I don't get it."

NEW YORK -- An "Occupy Wall Street" protester threw a violent fit in a McDonald’s after employees refused to give him free food.

Fisika Bezabeh, 27, ripped a credit-card reader from a counter and threw it at workers at about 2:30am local time Friday at the downtown Manhattan restaurant, which has become a bathroom spot for protesters.
What? OWS movement not giving out the free food anymore? Why won't they share?

Would OWS people actually do a thing like this?

How is reporting on actual incidents at OWS a "troll thread"? Is truth trolling?
