Hugs for Occupy's (not a real) Lawyer ...

Ben Christensen  you did a wonderful job today... and I'm sharing your statement with all 3 of my followers...
 
 
"Today we make history....

We are the people who wish to have a voice, we are not the doctors, the lawyers,the aristocrats, or the ceo's: We are the people who for years have lined the pockets of the people above, the ones who serve them coffee...do their laundry....clean their houses.

We are the silent afraid to speak and the oppressed afraid to stand. We are unnoticed in the presence of the politicians and forced into fear by the ones we trust to protect us and our freedoms!

We come and go day in and day out we punch the clock in the morning and are those who lock up at night while the shopowners at home with their family.

Who are we? Why are we here? What is our purpose? Questions we have been told we should ask ourselves if only to create doubt about our true selves. You can tread on us, kick us while we're down...but remember it is human nature to tolerate only so much before: WE WILL TAKE NO MORE!!!

That time is here, we are tired we don't wish to stand by and allow ourselves any further to be walked on, spit on, or to sit back and kiss the proverbial ass of those who live better than us as they profit from our efforts.

Accountability: WE WANT YOU TO START HAVING SOME!!!

Who are we? We are tired, we are angry, we are ready to take a stand as we reach the breaking point WE ARE OCCUPY AND WE NEVER GIVE UP!!!"
