paulymortadella replied to your post: An open letter to all the Occupy [location] people
Regardless of their motivation or educational background, the Occupy protesters have bought some ugly truths to the public consciousness. Truths about the banking and financial industry that need to be addressed.
These have been issues we all have been aware of for a long time, although we may have been afraid to speak about them. Maybe something good will come out of this in the end, but I have my doubts. The protesters haven’t exactly played nice in the acts surrounding the exercise of their freedom of speech. Get enough people together in a tight place, and bad things start happening. Vandalism. Violence. I have been in enough demonstrations and riots to know exactly what happens when things get out of hand. And yes, riot batons hurt like fuck when they hit you over the head with one, I can personally attest to that.
