The line is drawn in the sand. B. Hussein Obama and his ilk endorse socialism and are anti-capitalists. Explains why he is trying his best to destroy out system and the American way of living. These democrats are despicable at best.

I went to Occupy Boston today to see what was going on with my own eyes.
Examples of what I saw..
- One (I repeat ONE) Anarchist Communist (ifyou can believe that) with a table full of propaganda. Among the things he wanted banned were PRISONS. Needless to say, he wasn't getting a lot of discussion.
- Cops talking, in a friendly manner, to some of the protestors.
- One loon carrying a Che Guevara flag.
- One of the scheduled talkers who was trying to draw a comparison between this protest and Martin Luther protesting against the Catholic Church.
That was the looney part. Considerably in the minority.
What else did I see?
College kids worried about getting a job and how they'd pay off their student loans.
Veterans supporting the withdrawal of troops.
Lots of signs comparing the money spent on Iraq with various other political causes.
Lots of signs quoting the Constitution - especially about the right to free and peaceful assembly. (Many that quoted former Boston mayor Flynn espousing the idea of getting rid of the protestors)
People cleaning up.
People with opposing views having intelligent debates.
Some pretty clever signs ("I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one" - "This grass is worth $150,000 - What's the First Ammendment worth to you?" - "Some will rob you with a six-shooter - Some with a fountain pen")
Plenty of typical sloganeering signs.
What I did NOT see that the news supposedly said..
- The protest occupied one small park at the south end of the Rose Kennedy Greenway - NOT the entire Greenway as some said.
- The "spit on a Coast Guard" incident happened at North Station. This is nearly 2 miles away from the protest.
- The homeless have apparently been cleared away from the protest. They tried to invade and make trouble when they heard about the free food.
