This content is user submitted and not an official statement

The People are represented by those Patriots in the streets...

Those Patriots will spread the message out to every section of the city. When the police show up, they will go somewhere else before police have a chance to find an excuse to arrest.

Spread the word... and stay peaceful.

The People do not need to 'walk' on any bridge. There are thousands of streets leading to these bridges... This is a movement of the people, for the people and cannot be stopped. Disperse and spread the word everywhere...

These Patriots are flooding cities all over this country and come from all political and ethnic backgrounds. Our Patriots believe in what made this country great, and in it's time of need have and will continue to react, even if you choose not:

When others oppose this movement, show them this...

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." .

THE PEOPLE have this undeniable right, and we are using it...

Our protest is represented in this line...

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

When this government cannot or will not act, the people will.

This is not political... this a Patriots Duty, for The People, by The People.

In the spring this group of Patriots will be organized and will lead a Peoples march on our Capital.

Career politicians and lobbyist, bankers and corporations, take heed... your time is short.

The People refuse to allow your greed and manipulation any longer...

I agree with you OCH, we need to take this to the Capital but first we need to grow and walk before we run. This movement is fragmented yes, but at it's root it is maturing and growing. When the time is right, when enough people get off the couch, when fewer are complacent, The People that love this country will pull together.

When they understand this is for our children and their children, when they understand the fox is in charge of the hen house, The People will understand there is no fix because those in charge at the present will not allow it.

We must respect the Constitution but change the Government. The only recourse is to completely rebuild it, Re-elect no-one... throw all the career politicians out... remove access from corporate lobbyist... make smaller government, smaller corporations and smaller banks... it is time to rebuild what has been broken so badly.

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." Thomas Jefferson

"God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty." Thomas Jefferson

and he told us how to fix it...

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." by Thomas Jefferson, 1787."

In the spring this group of Patriots will be organized and will lead a Peoples march on our Capital.

Go after the inside trading crooks in Washington, and leave the capitalists on Wall Street alone. If this march on DC ever happened, I'd join in if I knew that the top 1% wouldn't be taking any flak for working hard and forging a better life for themselves.

"You say you want a revolution, well you know, we all want to change the world." Yes. This is where all Americans can come together. Our constitution allowed us to replace our government non violently. We need to stick to the principles and process the founders intended. The American Revolution continues. Our democratic republic is great. Lets fix it.

Great post, but I think they need to occupy the only republics left -- their state houses.

The United States of America, Inc. is a private, for-profit company incorporated in the state of Delaware, and so is the military (it is a separate private company). Private companies don't have to listen to The People; republics do have to listen to The People.

Occupy your state houses and demand that our federal level be un-incorporated in Chancery Court in Delaware, and that it be put into receivership into the hands of The People. Then, the U.S. will no longer be a private company and will have to operate according to the will of The People which is codified in The U.S. Constitution. Your states have to guarantee you a republican form of government. This is a clause written into the state constitutions.

If you tell them that you have not agreed to being ruled by a private company (a consortium of private companies in actually), they have to fix it because it is in their state laws.

This would be a very effective way to bust the federal government back to being a republic ruled by a body of laws instead of a body of tyrannts. You can then have state public hearings and ask the states to fix the out-of-control federal government. You can give the states your demands. But, be reasonable.

A short list of the worse offenses that need fixed. End Corporate Government. End the Wars, End the Fed. End the Income Tax. End Corporate Campaign Finance. Institute a Tobin Tax to Fund the Domestic Assistance Programs. Two Term Limit. Etc.

Don't get crazy with it; Do like Jefferson would want you to do and take the government back by mass action at the grassroots level. The People are the government, and the states Have to respect That and enforce the will of The People. It is the way our system is supposed to work.

Use It.
