rule 1: everyone has a voice! -do not look down upon or attack someone for speaking their mind.
rule 2: if a fellow protester is being arrested for no crime, everyone within the area needs to protect him or her from being arrested. -this includes making a wall of bodies around the victim, pushing cops, and even attacking cops.
-while yes, we are peaceful, no one should be silenced by a cop or oppressed. with our government turning against us, we must rise and fight.
rule 3: always help a fellow protester out! -if they are hungry, tired, sick, or injured, make sure to help them or have someone else help them.
those are rules that should be agreed on unanimously, but add your own rules to complete the list of universal rules.
We should add some guidlines, for information and for newcomers.
whoever GorgeCarlinRules may be, or their motivation, posting a bunch of links is a spaming practice to be shunned.

How am I deceitful? Please elaborate. I am saying to be peaceful, but protect fellow protesters. Also, feel free to list any ideas you have. Im willing to listen to your proposals, but we need guidelines to become more organized, as ows is a leading movement against all modern political issues, not just financial issues.

I'm not just calling for protest, I'm calling for action. Using a voice won't do anything, and there's a high chance another corrupt politician will be elected. But this action I'm suggesting is a last ditch effort if we cannot come to justice.
