I am the 99% ~response~

Occupy Wall Street what a beautiful thing.  Starting from a handful of people tired of corporate greed and lack of jobs.  This solidarity protest has spread like wildfire.  From the United States to Thailand.  We the people are taking a stand and letting our voices be heard.

This protest has been a peaceful movement for the most part.  I have seen many pictures of police officers all over our country using force and pepper spray for no reason.  Police officers are paid to protect the citizens of the city, right?  Yeah, I thought so too.  Then why would this officer pictured below be using mace?

I don't see any violence being used by any of the people picture above, except by the man in blue.  It is a total outrage.  The police are taking advantage of their power at this point.  Now, don't get me wrong, I firmly believe that there are many good men and women who serve their city with pride and honor.  And for that I applaud them.  But for the ones using excessive force, they need to be dealt with.

We have the right to voice our opinions and what we believe in.  We have a say in this country, we live in a democracy.  We are tired of being ran over and controlled.  It is time for Corporate America and Wall Street to be cleaned up since they won't be locked up!

We won't tolerate the banks charging us to use their ATM's when we are the customer, we will close our accounts with them.  We will take a stand against the banks getting richer while we become poorer. If we don't stand for what we believe in and do something about it, nothing will happen.  Take charge of yourself and your financial matters. 

Our government will bail out banks with millions upon millions of dollars, but the banks will still give out billions in bonuses.  How is that even possible?  Such greed.  Tapeworms. 

The banks will shut down companies here on our land and outsource them across seas.  Our people lose money, their homes, their pride, their respect.  The banks get more money.  Greedy little bastards.
And then our government sends that country rations to feed and clothing for those people who have our jobs? Greedy, greedy bastards.

And just how many former banking tapeworms work in our governmental system now?  Just too many.
