You are right, I confused you. My apologies.
I figured as much, it appeared you were having another exchange and got my post in there some how.
No biggie.
You are right, I confused you. My apologies.
You are the one who said we need to dig into the past...and now you are pretending I am the one who created this logic?
No wonder no one takes you seriously here.
And one more question for the record Londo.
Do you realize that your same implications, that because there are arrests, that somehow a protest or movement is worth less was used to describe: labor rights, civil rights, desegregation, women's right to vote, etc?
It is funny. Because those movements are accepted as legitimate NOW, the arrests are bogus. What do you think was said of them by the people against them at the time? The EXACT same thing you are saying.
Funny how history keeps repeating itself.
OWS never will be the same as civil rights.
That's not the goal anyway.
It's the start of the Revolution against your kind.
I can tell you are not very comfortable being on the wrong side of a Revolution already.
OWS will never rise to the level of civil rights or any other legitimate movement you have listed. OWS movement has no single focus like these movements had and why it will drift off into obscurity.
First, as I said, you dodged the first question:
Did executives of banks play a major part of the worldwide economic collapse: Yes or no?
And I will repeat this question that you dodged.

Those protests are still mistakes in many people's minds. Whether it "rises to the same level" would always be an opinion anyone, and not particularly relevant. Either protests absolutely determine legitimacy or they don't.. otherwise, blanket generalizations like yours don't apply.
The illogic I refer to - the illogic you continue to propound - is that an isolated event by a group of people can be used to make a general conclusion about the group.
As to who's being taken seriously here, a brief search of the dismissive comments you've received in your brief history here clearly demonstrates who's the village idiot.
According to shira, everyone is a murderer since groups they belong to have committed murder in the past. Are your ancestors European? Europeans have committed murder in the past, so you are a murderer...
Yeah, that is a VERY stupid position to hold.
Lets look at the here and now, though. OWS attacked the police and the white supremist group...the white supremist group was peaceful. Which group is more violent?
Can you prove the bank executives caused the worldwide economic collapse? One would think that if there was any proof that this was the case there would have been indictments and convictions by now (3 years later).
OWS is nothing like the other movements and never will be, except in your mind
OWS groups are routinely breaking the laws. They break into buildings, they attack the police, they burn ports, and here they attacked peaceful protestors and the police again.
How many "isolated incidents" are needed before a you stop saying they are :isolated incidents"?
Agreed, it is you. I am just surprised you so easily state you are. I applaud your honesty in this, admitting you are an idiot is not an easy thing to do.
All of those incidents are nothing compared to bringing down the world economy so a handful of people could make insane profits.
We had protections in place, but the republicans repealed the regulations from the savings and loan crisis.

So you are saying that if one group does something wrong, this means other groups can do things wrong as well?
The rep. did no such thing. The Dem-ons voted for or against . It could not go forward without the Dem-ons in the house /senate . Facts. Not an alternative reality
The vote in the house what was that?? You acting like the Senate has all saying power, The law comes up from the house to the senate from there to desk of president

Dodge number 2.
Answer whether YOU believe it please.
Did executives of banks play a major part of the worldwide economic collapse: Yes or no?
Do you realize that your same implications, that because there are arrests, that somehow a protest or movement is worth less was used to describe: labor rights, civil rights, desegregation, women's right to vote, etc? Yes or no.
If you are so right, then simply declare whether you think the answers are yes or no for either. Why should I need to provide proof in order for you to decide? Make up your own mind and please post your answers for all to see.
Continuing to ignore these simple yes or no questions... sad really.
I declare that you or no one else can prove that the bank executives caused the economic collapse.
I also declare that the OWS movement will never rise to level of civil rights, women's rights or any other worthwhile movement.
Continuing to support a dysfunctional movement is really quite sad.
If you haven't noticed, the Senate is where the final word is often decided or killed.
Pure BS . The President has last word . So The bill passed on 1/1/12 signed by Obummer is all obummers doing . By your logic.
I blame all three the house the senate and Obummer I also hold that these people should be hung for treason . Using that very law they passed . NO due processs.
You're never going to convince me that the OWS movement will ever compare with the historic movements in the past century. It's nothing more than a flash in a pan or a one hit wonder in the entertainment industry.
The OWS movement will be remembered most for the willful destruction of personal property, trespassing, and creating issues for the 99% who were trying to make a living.
