We need a second wave of patriot citizens
down in Portland in the early morning hours. Fill the city blocks with patriots. This is where the tide can turn.


I do not like what I'm hearing from the crowd that, "We called your bluff". I don't believe there was a bluff. The intention was to shut it down, but there are now too many people there to do that safely. We need to keep up an ever larger, sustained crowd.

The police (most of them) are not our enemy. Many will have sympathies with OWS. It's the system that needs to be changed.

10. Because they are being overtly threatened by Walker's insane legislations.
They are acting in their own self-interest. Most of them are still sadistic assholes at heart.

5. the police are not our enemy?
After the war crimes committed by police in Oakland and the total lack of apparent consequences for what is not only a violation of Constitutional rights but also of the Geneva Convention, I am no longer willing to give police the benefit of the doubt until they join the protestors instead of abusing them.

Cops are part of the 99% too, it's long past time they started acting like it.
