Read the Rules

The history of the common "man" tells us that nothing is conceded from any "ruling 1%" without struggle. That's the bottom line. If enough people can be gathered together across this great country with all their diverse views on building a true social contract and that can be sustained over a fairly long period of time then the corrupt politicians we have "elected" to lead this country and their Wall Street benefactors will really give notice....but it will take time and energy..... In the meantime there are solid things that can be done: A, "no shopping day"; "no driving day"; "no schools day for upper education schools"; etc. Do this at least once a week or month in the long term Wall Street will realize we are serious. Struggle, struggle, struggle!

Anyone that brings guns to the protest are only setting them self's up for a big fall and that will only make the movement look like the bad guy in everyone's eyes including some that may be looking to support our movement. We need all the support from as many people as we can and by bring guns it will only take that support away and they will not help with the much needed funding that is needed, if we are going to be looked at as a true movement that can get something done we must keep our heads about how we do it! Bringing guns is not keeping our heads, it is only making things worse for the movement. Gun have never be the answer, and if someone gets shot or even killed that would be the end of the movement and we have worked to hard to get this movement going! So please lets fight them with our brains not guns! God Bless The U.S.A

There is nothing wrong with bringing guns.

It'll just be a symbolic act to remind the government who they work for.

If you guys want to bring a gun to the protests its fine.

The second amendment protects your right to do so.

I'd urge you not to use them though.

I like this. It will be the only way.

After all your posturing, you will still be lucky to get a job flipping burgers because you don't want to work for prosperity. You want it given to you. It doesn't work that way in the real world. Have you ever visited the real world or are you still taking political science classes on your parent's dime?
