Here are Americans, engaging in protests (which Jefferson always thought well of and even encouraged) and yet we have other Americans wishing to squash the protestors.
Sad.
I'm pretty sure the OP and those with similar opinions would have been aghast at the early revolutionaries in this country.
No doubt they would have all been huge King George supporters.
Thats a good description of our current republicans.
Very true. The simpleton minds of the right wing goons are incapable of understanding any kind of logic, fox just tells them some propaganda and obediently turn the hate and ignorance into overdrive, no questions asked.

They were allowed to engage in protests, their permit expired.
The 1st amendment segment protecting free speech from government interference is not unlimited. Many people howling about the police state would do well to spend five minutes on wikipedia learning about that.

Not exactly, that's a very poor comparison.
The OWS are actually King Obama supporters who want higher taxes and bigger government, they're not protesting high taxes at all. They aren't protesting overly big government.
They aren't even protesting huge wealth as many of their leaders like Michael Moore are very wealthy, they are trying to bring about a Socialist government that provides them free college and high paying jobs for themselves but you don't see them protesting NAFTA or Obama's give-away of more jobs.

Wouldn't a college education and a high paying job making lots of money put them in the position of being the person they are protesting against?
Why are all you here patting yourselves on the back to see who can come up with dumber posts? Why aren't you all out protesting??
Don't worry, you have the dumbest posts market cornered. I often wonder If you have a job (so many posts) or just retired. We get it, you are against the protesters. Try starting a thread about some other subject, you are making yourself look like the loon, obsessed about the protesters.
