This is nothng more than rabble using the freedom of speech as a means to disrupt as much as possible, and to make the "Tea Party" to appear just like them, right thru the election 2012.

Yeah - let's take a look at Oakland, shall we? A peaceful demonstration - just as is going on in cities all over the WORLD - turns ugly because the police decided to break things up with tear gas. This didn't happen in New York or Boston or anywhere else (except the protest in rome got ugly as well but I don't have a lot of the details).
...and when the tear gas cannister knocks out an Iraq War Veteran, what do the cops do? They fire an explosive/concussive device where he fell!
Again, if you think Oakland's troubles are what the OWS protestors should be characterized as, you should be JUST FINE with the pictures of all those lunatics who crashed the Tea Party rallies with the most racist and hateful signs I've seen in decades.
Are you aware just how many cities have these peaceful protests? of course not - because peaceful protests don't sell newspapers and don't look flashy on the news.
Like I've said before, I don't agree with everything they're saying - but they DO have the right to say it.
