Unfortunately this is becoming the norm and the mainstream media won't cover it.

No, but if you have the information, you could certainly write it for the Observer.

I believe that the Occupy Movement is not about "legal occupying" it is just about
Occupying as a show of resistance.

I think in a couple months it will be interesting to see the two movements side by side. I
am not feeling occupy as a political movement, which is certainly where the Tea Party
headed once organized, and monetized.

Interesting side note, already the "occupy movement" is warning protesters about buying
"occupy" items from big business. So when they are in WalMart buying sign items, do not
I repeat do not buy the pre-made shirts and signs while there.

FWIW

Here is another example. If you are an ex-jihadist you can say anything but if you are a Christian you can't.

This happens because the conservative Christians have been brain washed into keeping silent. This cannot last much longer...

liberal and moderate christians have been brainwashed into being conservative christians.
I blame Ronald Reagan. we are still under the pall of an evil fog unleashed by Ronald Reagan.

catholic college professors like to make a big deal about homosexuality.
this is because if they made a big deal about pre-marital celibacy and straight divorce, they'd lose their constituents faster. let alone Lent. Lent sucks! people want to eat meat on friday! and drink beer!

when catholicism professors and church leaders make a big deal about homosexuality, it doesn't really matter, because so many of their priests are fruitloops.

the Occupy Cleveland movement is mostly just a few people hanging out. There is generally no one to watch them protest after about 6:00 PM. i've waited for the bus at public square hundreds of times. of the few people near public square, most of them are hoodrats, wastrels, small time drug dealers, and small time drug customers.

It's more like "if you're a tenured professor you can say anything but if you're a part-time adjunct professor you can't".
