Speaking of snow, now that it's officially fucking snowing ( :!!!: ), what're the occupyers gonna do about inclement weather?


that's what my photo was for. they all went home, and put out snowmen holding signs (at least in Fort Collins, CO)

kind of loses the effect i think

The "Bank Owned" sign in the background... oddly apt, dont you think?


word.

The morning I took this though, it was 15 degrees.

There's protestors protesting like everything, occupy wall street peeps, people protesting the occupy wall street protestors, people protesting medicinal marijuana, people for medicinal marijuana, i kinda want to walk around downtown with a sign that says "protest protestors" but i don't care enough to
So this turned into another devi thread...

This thread has had its share of grumpy old men and devil's advocates, but to have someone genuinely opposed to it does cause me to want to see it through your eyes.


Can be grumpy, old, and opposed to OWS and its ilk.

Probably as inconceivable as reading primary source material to some people though.

I hope you don't see this as me trying to bait you, I really do want to know how you feel about all this. Just a couple bros talking about things that matter (other than fuzz, which obviously matters most!)
:hug:

To be honest, my views are difficult for me to explain clearly without actually speaking. I find things like this tough to convey in type. Half the time, the person you're talking to misunderstands what you're trying to say, or you poorly explain what you mean. Then you end up arguing semantics, or points that have little to do with the subject at hand.

If you want to Skype or something, I'd be down with that.

Is it one of those things that is better expressed through love making? If so, I'm down.

no homo

just kidding

but seriously

No dude, I can totally understand and respect that. I'm sure it's better left for those conversations over a pint of beer... or three. There are definitely issues I would never feel comfortable talking about over the interwebz.... some things only work face to face.

What really makes that link worthwhile is the comments section.

2:10 a.m. Press barred from entering Liberty Square

and

2:44 a.m. NYPD destroys OWS Library. 5,000 donated books in dumpster.

doesn't sound civilized police forces to me, but it seldom does nowadays when clearing protesters.

If by "worthwhile" you mean "vaguely creepy", perhaps. :poke:

There's a lot of information that can be gleaned from it.

I'm still waiting for legislation proposals myself. Maybe once the urban camping is over we can actually get some shit started.
