I have been seriously thinking about supporting this movement but seeing how you go about getting your undefined message across, I can't do it at this time. When you start to block people from going to work (Oakland) then you hurt small business who depend on people to come into their shops for lunch, dinner, breakfast whatever, you are hurting the very same people you say you represent, then you have a sexual assault in your feeding area by a Volunteer, couple that with the Anti-Semitic rants, Communist, Socialist, Anarchist, David Duke, Nazi's all of whom are supporting you, your cause is doomed. I could support some of your ideas but unfortunately this movement lacks many elements.

You are grossly uneducated.

Black Bloc from oakland (the people wearing black pretending to be protestors were government agent provocateurs. if you look closely you can see the agent provocateur label on their underwear.)

I have been through some hard times these last few years. I am angry over many things and it has been a struggle in many ways. However, I do not support the blocking of streets, the blocking of ports, stopping people from going to or from their work or hurting the normal routine of business.

I support every man's right to stand outside with their sign and sing their song. However, throwing up fences and forcing people out of their work is another story which I do not support.

No group should be able to force their vision down on another. If Joe wants to go into his work then he should be allowed to do so. If Joe wants to cross a bridge with his car then he should be allowed to do so. OWS likes to force their vision down upon others and they have no right.

The movement doesn't lack many elements, it has too many elements! There's no one message. OWS is against many things. I'm having a hard time figuring out what it is for.

I work hard for a living and am pissed off about a lot of things in society. But I'm just not hearing the message here...

I can agree with that, when I say elements I mean structure, it seems everyone wants something different and no clear goals are established.

Get money out of politics,. change the system that concentrates wealth in the hands of the few (1%) at the expense of the many (99%),. seems simple enough.
