Occupy Colleges calls for a general student strike on Monday Nov. 28th, I guess liberals hate education right? (weapons, cost)

[Backspace]

I hear liberals here claim that conservatives "hate education" but now the liberal group Occupy Colleges (part of the OWS movement) is calling for a general student strike on Monday.

All Student General Strike Monday – November 28 : Occupy Colleges (http://occupycolleges.org/all-student-general-strike-november-28-2011-2/ - broken link)

November 28th – In solidarity with UC Davis , UC Berkeley, CUNY Schools and all students who are defending their right to protest against rising tuition cost and out of control student debt. We ask you to STRIKE! No work, no school – please join together in a central area of your choosing and stand up against the VIOLENCE and SUPPRESSION that is happening in our schools.
Please abide by the Pledge of Non-Violence to Participate in the Student Strike:
We are an open, participatory, democratic, horizontal, peaceful, and nonviolent movement.
We are not a leaderless movement, we are a movement of leaders.
As a nonviolent movement, we have agreed to refrain from violence against any person, from carrying weapons, and from destruction of property.
We reject violence, including property destruction, because we recognize that it undermines popular support and discourages the broadest possible participation among the 99%.
We believe nonviolence promotes unity, strength of message, and an environment in which everyone’s voice might be heard.
We affirm that it is the personal responsibility of every individual participant in our movement to promote and maintain nonviolent discipline and to intervene to prevent violent action by anyone in our movement.

Liberals, why do you hate education?

Fine these idiots can then divest themselves of all and any educational aid if this is the route they are taking.

Freakin losers.

That'll show the Wall Street elite that the OWS crowds mean business.

Oh..it's only about tuition hikes and student loans now ? I thought they wanted to change America, not just their little piece of it.

If you look at their message, it all boils down to personal self interest. They faill to see Europe melting down financially because of socialism yet they want that model here.

Their lunacy is understated.

Bingo.

It's about what they want without considering the consequences. They don't care enough about the possible consequences to even know what they are. They have a very short-sighted view - tunnel-vision if you will.
