There are definitely no grounds for a lawsuit in that video.
Agreed but why are they being arrested? Did they do something wrong? I forgot it was illegal to speak your mind in the country where we call it "The land of the FREE and the home of the brave"
Well to be fair, that one video doesn't really show what their offense was. It looked to me like a fight broke out, but idk. I'm assuming tho that the police made sure they had grounds to arrest, since there were so many people video taping.
good. god. No, this is not trying. this is fucking around. The way these protesters are acting sickens me. Don't give me this 'we have to try SOMETHING' bullshit. Check it out, in that video no ones even actually caring about the reason the protest started. You're just hoping you can catch a cop smacking someone. Seriously, this pisses me off more then the 10 beta invites.
Can you tell me one thing gained from this? 'Publicity!' for what?! Except one muffles series of chants, what did this publicize? That the people don't know the law, and think they are going to sue?
Link, I'm seriously not trying to be a dick, but I'm at a loss as to how yelling in the street is going to help? I understand the thought is that it will make people change their ways.. but really, do even YOU believe that?
It won't, this protest will go down like Chanology. I admire their dedication, but youth these days do not know how to follow through and elect the wrong people to speak for their cause. I honestly can't see this lasting more than a week, these kids will miss their beds too much.
EDIT: I hes bed gammar.
Your generalization, however founded, offends me. As a youth in NYC I believe there are youth who actually do care. As small of a minority we may be we are here. Not to mention the fact that this shouldn't just be "youth" this should be everyone. It's not like we are the only ones affected here. Yeah we might get hit the hardest later on but this is affecting you me and the rest of America right now. however you're feeling it, you are feeling it. So to people saying "oh the youth are not like how they used to be. they can't do it" Well then stop complaining and do something about it the way you used to do it. How about you get up and show us how it's done so we can follow. I believe in our youth and our countries citizens. It should be all of us standing outside over there to protest. We all should be condemning the way our government is run. But if only a handful of people out of our whole population do it then it is for naught and it isn't a fail based on our wants but a fail on your part for being too lazy to do anything.
ORR, and I'm not trying to start a fight, but if you want it so badly and we others 'can't see what's going on' then it is up to you to motivate us. I don't believe him nor I were attacking you people, I applaud the motive, I just don't believe the way it is being brought about will have any effect.

OMG GUYS THERES LIKE THOUSANDS OF PPL AT WALL STREET, AND THEY SHUT DOWN ALL THE CORRUPT!!! AMERICA IS FREEE!!!!! oh wait. they failed.
Edit: I'm all for cracking down on the corrupt, but the whole 'lets rush this place and!...and.. well lets sit outside. but we'll chant!' does nothing.
Fighting for rights? Awesome! What you are doing? Yes, smackdown. I would love to hear an actual account of how your group has helped. Don't give me the 'we've encouraged others!' Naw that's a cop out, actually tell me what evil scheme you have stopped. What plot have you foiled. None? Strange
Edit: I hope the police assault the piss out of you.
I love you too.
I'm sorry I'm really not trying to be a COMPLETE dick, but I mean seriously, can you tell me what you hope to accomplish by setting up a couple protests and barricades? If I'm trying to get to work on wall street, so I can make money and feed my family, I'll straight up beat the piss out of someone stopping me from going to work. This will have almost NO effect on what you are trying to achieve.
Can't help but constantly feel that Anonymous is some sad bunch of young people that have no clue what they're doing, or what they're playing with. But maybe not.
This isn't my fight, I don't even know about Wallstreet. I'm interested to see what will actually happen, if anything will, and I'd be glad if it did make a difference in the grand scheme of things.
But I hope nobody here actually believes they can end any and all abuse without violence. No matter your claims of non violence, no change will come without pain.
While this protest is being strongly pushed as a non-violent protest, I hope nobody fools themselves into going here and expecting to set up non-violent barricades. I have zero love for the police, and (Assuming I get the time off to go) if they do herd us like cattle, akin to how they herded the protesters at the G20 in Canada, we should take every step to stand up to them by any means necessary.
Do I want to fight? No fucking way.
If the police assault me, will I fight? Damn right.
Edit:
Also, I updated the first post a little.
You need to be slapped.

For years Walstreet has taken, and taken, and taken. Banks, corporations, the government, has trampled upon our rights as free human beings. On September 17th join Annonymous in taking control of the financial district of New York City, commonly known as Wall street. Once there, tents, kitchens, and peaceful barricades will be set up for a few months.
On September 17th, Anonymous will flood into lower Manhattan, set up
tents, kitchens, peaceful barricades and occupy Wall Street for a few
months. Once there, we shall incessantly repeat one simple demand in a
plurality of voices.
We want Freedom.
This is a Non Violent protest, we do not encourage violence in any way.
The abuse and corruption of corporations, Banks and Governments.
ENDS HERE!!
Join Us!
We Are Anonymous.
We Are Legion.
We do not Forgive.
We do not Forget.
Wall Street, Expect Us!
YEAAA!!!! LETS SHTOP WALL STREET! there's no real plan in place, just gonna chill, but YEA!!!! ugh.
