What is freedom of movement? According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) all people are entitled to the recognition of inherent dignity and certain inalienable rights, which are the "foundations of freedom and justice in the world." Freedom of movement is part of the "liberty of man" (Jagerskiold) thus making it one of the most basic human rights. Article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights stipulate:

Oh you mean these OWS protesters who are trying to prevent people from getting to work and going about their business on Wall Street? THOSE people should complain about THEIR freedom of movement being impinged? Do you THINK before you spout this sht off?

I don't work in NYC. I'm not even in the financial industry. I'm just one of an increasing number of American middle class people with a fcking JOB that is watching you OWS'ers carry on like entitled, jealous, spoiled brats. You know the country is against your bullshit by about 2 to 1, right?

If your so gainfully employed what the hell are you doing on here!

[-] 1 points by scoff (21) 12 years ago

Um, it's called the internet son. I know you've probably only seen a place of business on TV but most offices have computers in them. Some people take a little break from work by watching silly videos on Youtube, I watch silly incoherent protests on hurriedly cobbled together websites

So you got your little job that makes you feel so warm and fuzzy! How's your 401K or your IRA, how about your pension? GULLLLLLLLLLPPPP!

[-] 1 points by scoff (21) 12 years ago

My 401K has lost about 40% of it's value, like anyone's. I do not have this juvenile comic book vilians and heros world view that you do, so I do not blame anyone in particular for this -- it's an economic downturn. They've happened before, and they will happen again. They are sometimes mild and they are sometimes bad. What you children need to realize is this is nothing new. You are NOT at the brink of ushering in some new 'age' or anything. It's all happened before and it will all happen again.

Well how about if you lost your job 40% of your retirement savings and your home and you were say...... 57. Does that paint a different picture? No sorry tired of turning the other cheek.

WRONG!

"scoff" = TROLL = PARASITE.

Get a REAL JOB, make an HONEST living helping your country instead of sinking it even deeper.

[-] 1 points by scoff (21) 12 years ago

How is it you know what job I do? And that it's not "real". I have a completely real, boring, mundane, run of the mill job, I can assure you. I work, I pay taxes. It's honest. I'm well compensated but not rich. I have no complaints..... When you children grow up, maybe you'll have a "real" job too.

[-] 0 points by TIOUAISE (2526) 12 years ago

FYI, I have kids and grandkids and a REAL JOB. I make an HONEST living, unlike PARASITICAL TROLLS...

[-] 1 points by scoff (21) 12 years ago

Are you able to read? Maybe you can ask one of your grandchildren to read my posts to you or something. What did I say that makes you think I'm a "parasite" or a "troll". You seem to be fixated on that and I can only attribute that to either not being able to comprehend what I write or possibly you need a meds adjustment

[-] 0 points by TIOUAISE (2526) 12 years ago

A troll and not even DROLL....

Hopefully OWS will block access completely and shut down your snake oil business!

If you work on wall street you should have been thrown in jail in 08

And all the people who were laid off because of the Zuccotti Park occupation killing business down there? All the residents who lost countless hours of sleep to protesters beating drums into the night? All the people who couldn't get into the city today because of the clusterfuck OWS has caused with the subway? What about THEIR rights? Screw you, if anything unfortunate befell you and your ilk today, you more than invited it on yourself by continuing to throw this ridiculously sensationalized tantrum instead of searching for work like the rest of society. Really.

Cost of doing bad business!

[-] 1 points by OccupyCapitolHill (197) 12 years ago

Who the hell are you to say what business people do? Right. The guy running the coffee shop is behind all your misery. Give me a fucking break, and stop talking about this "price of democracy" bullshit. You speak for no-one but yourself.

[-] 0 points by paulg5 (673) 12 years ago

Your talkin out your tooter now! What business people do.....what the hell are you talkin about,,,, check back when you sober up .

[-] 1 points by OccupyCapitolHill (197) 12 years ago

How is a coffee shop on the corner that's being run out of business by the lack of activity in the area "bad business".

[-] 0 points by paulg5 (673) 12 years ago

Not the coffee shop stupid....Wall Street! 1 upscale tutti fruity (Wall Street only) coffee shop is a small price to pay compared to hundreds of thousands of jobs and homes lost. What about the people put on food stamps because of those fuckin crooks! What for? so those bastards can sit in some fancy coffee shop and pay $8 a shot for fuckin Cappuccino!

[-] 1 points by OccupyCapitolHill (197) 12 years ago

I maintain my point. OWS has hurt the livelihood of the very people you claim to represent. You're doing nobody a favor.

[-] 1 points by paulg5 (673) 12 years ago

I can see what this post is about, Ignore it and it will go away. As long as you get everything your way your happy, as long as it's at the expense of others. Forget the big picture It's all about you, am I right?

[-] 1 points by paulg5 (673) 12 years ago

I started this post and I dislike it! Why...... because of all the self centered, self serving, "Yes Sir" business as usual......fat ass do nothings that have commented on it!

Well stated facts that the entitled brats refuse to acknowledge.

[-] 1 points by OccupyLink (529) 12 years ago

In New Zealand, their Police Act has a Human Rights part in it. They will not now remove Occupy Protestors, as they have already lost a court action the Protestors took against them. The Police has to pay the Protestors $100,000.
