From the crew that manages livestreaming Zuccotti Park action: "Occupy Hearts and Minds"
As reported by them on CNN this morning.

Occupying parks and public spaces are a means to an end.

The long term goal?

"To Occupy the Hearts and Minds of People"

Well said, anonymous tech team, well said.

Peace.

The Occupy movement's opponents know this. That is why they are so aggressive.

2. Telling people to --
Shut the fuck up, get out of the way, you are part of them problem, you don't get it & never will and thank you for your concern isn't winning any hearts or minds.

3. You are absolutely correct about that.
The spokespeople who were interviewed were doing none of those things, which gave me great a lot of hope.

I was surprised that CNN even gave them any airtime.

5. The Occupy movement is attracting ***ALL*** types of people. It's trying to deal with them from
where they actually are, rather than pretend that they are something else that is more "acceptable" to the movement itself or to others, such as the media.

4. This so-called Christian nation ought to be happy to know that one thing this's about IS love.
