Oh okay so the protestors self interests override that of the commuter who is actually trying to earn an income and feed their family? What if said commuter lost their job for being late, what now? That will absolutely help out this 1 vs 99 epidemic, now won't it?
Think before you post your stupidity.

I'd like to see proof that this has actually happened. Saying they should all pack up and go home because of some "what if?" shit isn't good enough. If you're late due to someone totally out of your control like that and it's verifiable, no one is going to get fired.
If no one is actually getting fired, then your problem doesn't exist and is not a good enough reason to stop it.

I never said pack up and go home, protest all you want. Blocking roadways is ridiculous.
There needs no proof of this as I never said it happened. I asked hypothetical question to make people ponder the possible consequences of these actions.
You're misconstruing me as being against the protests. I am not. People just need to have respect for others if they expect the world to have respect for them.

How many have gotten fired from these protesters making them late to work? I'd like to see some proof that this has actually happened. Being late because you slept in and being late because it was impossible to get to work because the road was blocked are not the same thing. Show me some cases of people being fired because of protesters making them late and then we can treat it as a real problem. Right now this is just a hypothetical problem.

Ok. So you admit this isn't something that's really happening. This is just a reason for you to complain about the protests.
Well that's how you're coming off. Your complaining about the protesters causing a problem that isn't actually happening.
i think what you mean is
plenty of people get fired every day for being late regularly.

We've lost millions of jobs due to Wall St scams and yet people want to ignore that and complain about OWS hypothetically causing a job loss even though in reality there is no evidence that it's actually happened.
How about we focus on the millions of actual jobs we've lost and save the hypothetical job loss for another time?

It's quite clear your intolerance toward dissent. To simply voice opposition toward the actions of one singular group of people is not opposition towards the entire movement. I don't know if it's happening. We don't know of any of the repercussions of those actions, but for someone who is as pragmatic as I thought you were I fully expected you to understand that a lack of evidence is not absence of evidence. It's time people stop being so self centered and look at how their actions affect the world. I thought for sure a democrat would understand this. Apparently, I have been completely fooled because now I have no clue what a democrat is supposed to represent.
hypocrites..........
Unlikley. Car crashes, earth quakes, protests, road closures are not resasons to justify dismissal. Odviously it could happen. You are expected to leave early enough to account for things like the aforementioned.
Said family is doomed anyway and will be in the streets getting beat by Police eventually anyway.
This is a Public BB, your welcome to post whatever you want but dont act like a Pig.

That about covers this endless dribble.
Ok 1 more.
What if the dude that you quoted in your sig was in the street and blocked a carriage for a few minutes with a sign that read END THE FED? He would be strupid as well right?

I don't think that would happen being that the federal reserve didn't exist then........
That being said, if it were possible, yes he would be. Your opinions and political/economic frustrations are not more important than anyone else. Sorry to break it to you.
I was speaking hypothetically.

Standing up against the take over of our government by the 1% is definitely a net benefit to the world. Worth it.
