Occupy Wall Street A.K.A. Rules don't apply to us and we deserve special privileges

This is the forum frequently asked questions section and will always be a work in progress.

Why create such a forum?

Several reason's have lead me to create this forum but the biggest is the over moderation and censorship on previous forums that I have visited has inspired to to create a forum solely about today's politics. Today's politics are more controversial than they ever have been and …

The Rules here are very simple

-No Attacking a person's race and/or religion
-No Personal Threats (this includes the politicians)
-Stay on Topic
-No links to porn sites and nudity
-Swearing is allowed but it has to be appropriate and NO F-bombs and other grossly vulgar words

-Don't be a douchebag

Most offensives will get a warning, however you may not even get a warning and you may be banned, …

I have had enough with the OWS, I recently read a pamphlet that was distributed at the Phoenix OWS that advocated the killing of Law Enforcement. Now I just saw a video of protester assaulting a police officer, by pushing the officer off of his patrol bike. This is not ok, nor justified. The OWS no longer represents the 99% in this country in fact it represents a small faction that believe that rules and laws do not apply to them and believe that the deserve certain privileges.

Here is the video of the officer in denver being pushed off of his bike.

Caution this video contains strong language being used by a OWS protestor

i'd say its 99.5% the fault of the cops, and .5% fault of the protesters. . . cmon these are american citizens protesting, did you see the police presence, it did look like a Nazi roundup of jews in WWII . .

i dont understand the 'rules dont apply to us/special treatment' headline

both sides (???) need to just relax, because the protesters arent going anywhere soon . .

Yea, right; maybe a dozen officers and a couple hundred unemployed malcontents breaking an untold number of laws and allowed to get away with it while they exercise a constitutionally guaranteed freedom of speech.

Is there anybody out there except the Pinhead that is NOT surprised by this admitted lack of understanding?

They aren’t going anywhere because they don’t have a clue about what it means to take personal responsibility for one’s own wellbeing without sucking off the government teat. And they’re too busy pissing and moaning about how unfair it is that some people in this country actually have taken responsibility for their lives and have been generally successful in their lives. They aren’t EVER going anywhere until they wake up and realize that this country doesn’t owe them a damn thing.

You’re absolutely, 100% correct Yonni; the PN Forum has indeed been invaded by a Troll.

i dont see the need for the personal attacks dubob . .

its a non violent protest, cops with clubs and tear gas vs protesters, give me a break! breaking countless laws? thats hyperbole . .

they arent asking for anything special, or a handout, theyre protesting the increasing wage gap between the 1% and the 99% - at this point theyre not asking/demanding anything . . the movement is just growing up . . who knows what it will turn into . . if anything...

You are either completely void of brain matter, or you are nothing more than a troll. How can you say they aren't asking for anything special? Actually you're correct, they are DEMANDING things; free healthcare, forgiveness of student loans, high paying wages regardless of productivity, etc.

PRO you have committed the logical fallacy of false dichotomy - you gave me two choices, that im devoid of brain matter, or a troll, well theres another choices(thats your logical error) - that i have the differing opinion than you . .

the protesters have said a lot of varied stuff but theres really no one voice/leader as far as I know . .

the protesters need to practice total non violence and the well trained police need to not over-react . .

lefty

No, YOU stated the OWS wasn't asking for anything special. That is a flat out LIE. Therefore, you must be an idiot or a troll. You want a leader, look no further than George Soros!

theyre asking for change . .. i dont think they know exactly . . . your insults are juvenile pro, kick it up a notch man

lefty

Change? Isn't that the same vague/EMPTY nonsense Obama ran on in 2008? How has that worked so far? We have change alright, unemployment is HIGHER, the nation is more divided than ever, inflation is HIGHER, the fanatical muslim population has increased and become braver. Wanting change is inane. Change happens whether one wants it or not. Either these people are void of thought, or are void of thought.....but I digress..... geek

its worked great, Pres Obama has kept us out of the great republican depression we were headed for, too bad our stimulus wasnt 3-5 trillion, instead of 700 billion, 1/2 of it being tax cuts for you and me . . since he created over 1.2 - 1.7 million jobs from the stimulus . . OMB figures . .

hes passed financial reform, passed health care reform, killed the terrorists, bring the boys back from iraq . .ect ect

Keynesian Economics do NOT work! When will pinheads like you admit that? It didn't work under FDR, and it is NOT working now. That is because it is deeply flawed economics. since he created over 1.2 - 1.7 million jobs from the stimulus . . OMB figures . . How did Obama 'create' 1.2 - 1.7 million jobs? Minus the public sector jobs, there has been a net LOSS of jobs since the anointed one took office. Inflation is off the charts, don't believe me, look at the price of gas/foods.

hes passed financial reform, passed health care reform, killed the terrorists, bring the boys back from iraq . .ect ect The financial reform bill is the main cause of what is happening today on Wall Street. WTF do you think EVERY major bank supported it? Talk about insanity! Health Care Reform is a disaster, and has costs the country dearly already. As for killing terrorists, I thought you leftists hated the war on terror....I guess that is only when a Republican is in the Oval Office.....Don't even go down the mess in the middle east.......

Really did you not even watch the video, if you step in front of a moving vehicle and you get run over it is your fault. Then when you throw off the rider of that vehicle that is also your fault and when you get tackled and handcuffed because it was a cop you threw off of his bike then it is a consequence of your actions. That is also what the headline was about, many of these kids don't feel like the should suffer the consequences of their choices. Forgiven student loans are you kidding they took out the money for them and used the money, they signed paper work saying they would pay that money back. Now they don't want to pay that money back, well that is theft taking something without paying for it. Not to mention look at how they are being slobs this is ridiculous

Democracy is NEVER pretty, which is why the Founders did everything they could to keep this nation from ever being one! Democracy's are a feeding ground for tyrannical despots, and nothing else.

You get mad because things aren't fair and then when we call you out on your double standard you just say nothings fair. How original!
