The morning action may include attempts to make citizens’ arrests of bankers, and some activists intend to bring handcuffs, they said.

Can't wait to see that; assault and attempted kidnap is a great way to spread your agenda...amirite?

Yeah this won't end well.

I understand the frustration that there was no punishment for people who are essentially at fault for collapsing the economy and destroying the livelihood and equity of so many. But two wrongs do not make a right and this is not legal or well advised.

The government was the one responsible for what happened, not the bankers since the government was subsidizing loans

It's a pity that it's impossible to get a concealed carry permit in New York.

How do you imprison an entire industry?

The collapse is due to a flash mob mentality. What are you going to do, arrest tens of thousands of people?

Remember, Obama and the democrats support these people. But yeah, I can see charging them with attempted kidnapping.

Thats the key thing, obama supports these people yet condemns the Tea Party, pos. I wouldn't be surprised to see ows go away if obama wins

You know what I kinda like the idea. Maybe they can all wear white hooded robes and stage a real old school lynching!

Actually it does. This is why conservatives want legal conceal carry. So if someone steals your wallet you can whip your gun and shoot him in the face.

But then again shooting someone who steals your wallet is not wrong.

You're so full of shit it's coming out your ears.

wat? That's the most ridiculous thing you've stated in a while, and that's saying a lot.

 

[cybrsage]

How will they sneak up on the people to handcuff them? You can smell an occupier long before you see them.

 

[Iron Woode]

I have had enough of these Occupy Idiots (occupidiots). They go around with so much faux anger for capitalism, yet they benefit from it every day.

And now they are lecturing people on the poor? Most of these kids think poverty is not being able to get a latte for a week. If they had to experience real poverty they wouldn't act so damn smug about everything.

This kind of protest needs to be put out of its misery. Seriously, if they attempt to cuff anybody, the police should shoot them.

Heh, in my state attempted kidnapping means I can shoot in defense of 3rd party. It's specifically mentioned as justifiable.

 

[waggy]

I hope they do it. i think the fallout of it would be entertaining.

I'd say give them more rope. Their doing a fine job at tying the noose.
