The Macy's parade is an example of a corporation doing good things by giving back back to the communities they interact with. I wouldn't support any protest or disruption of the event.

It's a bad idea. Just my opinion.

Leave it alone. Just as we have rights to free speech so do people to enjoy traditions of holidays.

We should stay away from Macy's they are part of americas great roots at least that is what I know, they help push our factories merchandise before corporations shipped them all over seas and the children will be there for the parade.

That's a good question.

I guess not off limits...but be careful how you act, eyes are on you

I think Macy's parade is not off limits. The Macy's parade is for everyone including those who disagree with big corporations advocating to buy, buy , buy!!! I think it will open a discussion with the 99%ers and they might have to explain to their children why people are demonstrating.Holiday traditions have been occupied by corporations, it's time 99%ers begin to take control of their own holiday.

Not at all. Go ahead and fuck with it. Maybe you marxists can scare a few children while you are at it.
