You keep us firmly in the public eye and demand attention to the fact that this country is hurting and in serious need of repair. I hope that all of the Occupy WallStreet, Occupy Oakland, Occupy the USA supporters can continue to contribute the same support. We are being noticed and there have already been some positive reactions. As we go forward I think we can expect to see accelerating/expanding reactions. Please everyone keep-up the good work's.
Note: Vandalism being reported at gatherings. Vandalism is not our friend and invites unwanted government/police intervention that could end some demonstrations prematurely.
If you see vandalism being done. Stop it if you can do so safely. Those who vandalize may very-well be against our movement and are trying to get us bad publicity at the very least or are trying to get our public voice shutdown.

OUR BANNER/OUR CAUSE
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. July 4, 1776
