And you have disputed it with? NOTHING but your say..... and public defecation on anything is not exactly a peaceful event. That a murder occurred at one of the peaceful protests speaks volumes as does the rape.... I can find more if you like... I kind of spread it around a bit from various protests... I can find assaults, aggrivated assaults, all kinds of peaceful events.... The papers are full of it.

America, love it and change it.

The trite little love it or leave it garbage is just that.
I see you've embraced electricity and the internet, isn't that change?

There is nothing wrong with peaceful protests. They are the fabric of this country, but the OWS protests have been anything but. The participants have behaved in a disruptive manner, causing small mom and pop businesses to lose profits, brought crime to normally peaceful communities, and while they issue their complaints, they have NO solutions to offer. Those that claim that OWS is a peaceful movement conveniently side step the truth to satisfy their objectives at any cost.

You people are unbelievable. You chastise these types of people for not wanting war or not wanting to fight and then turn around and claim that they are being violent.

You cannot have it both ways.

Where did I chastise anyone for not wanting war or wanting to fight? and I am still waiting for your links to disprove anything I said.
I have plenty more links for your reading enjoyment if you like.

Really? How much smoke do you need before you realize there is a fire? I can show you 100 different links from all different sources, saying the same things at each and every one of the major protests.... There is enough documentation on these protests to start another link of criminal behavior. Does everything have to go to trial before you will accept misconduct on behalf of OWS protestors? How naive are you?

No they haven't and as you have proven to them, they can not.
They are far removed from reality, far from it.

Let them sit back and be willfully ignorant, you see they TOO are getting screwed, there government is also doing things to take away their rights and freedoms as well. When they come here to post and to whine and cry, just laugh at them.

Technology has changed, and of course, has been created to a large extent by US ingenuity in a time in which we relied upon our own resources, not the government and socialism for our existence.

"Change" does not, and should not, involve changing the philosophy of personal freedom and independence, without an overpowering and controlling government, which has "governed" the US since its inception. Since the embracement of socialist policies, then and only then did America experience a decline.

Most of the technological changes have occurred through hard work, intelligence and capitalistic drive for profit. The system that you promote stifles innovation. If this was not true, the former USSR, North Korea, and Cuba would be the international drivers of innovation in the world.
