Godsavsu and Music... Praying for your children :pray :pray
Buzz... You are absolutely right, he is just letting this g with a blind eye toward it and closed ears. Unbelievable! I can see letting protests take place so people can say what they have to say, but for week?
At least its unlike the ME (so far) no guns...
Chaos flourishes in the absence of leadership, we are at the mercy of a FAILed socialist college professor. :doh

Jackson 64: Your last paragraph sums up what I've been thinking for a while. There seems to be very little effort from our govt. to even attempt to bring our nation together. Using the us against them card in every situation that comes up. Are we being primed for widespread civil disorder or worse yet, a civil war? Maybe.

Owebama is a product of Bill Ayers and these silly agendas fit right into their playbook. They aren't fooling anyone except the poor patsies in the Wall Street protests.

Exactly. Their agenda is clear. Right in our face so to speak.

Anonymous declared "war" on the New York Stock Exchange this weekend and vowed to "erase" the NYSE from the Internet on Oct. 10 as the Occupy Wall Street protest entered its third week in New York City after a weekend that saw hundreds of protesters arrested during a planned march across the Brooklyn Bridge.
"On Oct. 10, NYSE shall be erased from the Internet. On Oct. 10, expect a day that will never, ever be forgotten," intoned a computer-generated male voice common to many Anonymous videos, in a warning posted on TheAnonMessage YouTube channel (video below).

My 20y/o daughter was ready to quit her job and run up there at the drop of a hat. She says she's been praying for direction and all of a sudden some facebook "friend" asks her if she wants to head to N.Y. My husband and I had a long day yesterday, praying and pleading with her not to go. She is a smart girl and has paid most of her own way since she was 16 because we dont believe handing things to our kids on a silver platter. She is very responsible and loves the Lord, but recently has started following the new age crowd. We continue to pray the Lord will open her eyes to the truth that she was raised in. Thankfully, her "friend" backed out of the deal and they have decided to go to the protest in New Orleans this weekend instead (At least she doesn't have to give up her job for that one)
My heart breaks for all the youth who are being deceived by the enemy. Please pray that they will be able to finish the race strong. I just wanted you all to hear a different side to this story. When I first heard about the protests, my first thoughts were those of hippies too. Unfortunately, I now know from experience this isn't necessarily the case.
:pray for your daughter and all of our youth........

Thanks to everyone for your prayers. I know it's spiritual warfare (nothing else makes sense) and that the enemy is making a last-ditch effort to deceive and attack as many as he can before time is up, so I REALLY appreciate the prayers. :hug I know my daughter is guarded by angels, so when my husband asked if I wanted him to disable her car, I said no, we have to trust the Lord to open her eyes and protect her. :lol2 Thanks again for listen and for being my sounding board.

(http://www.cnbc.com/id/44763090)These are some of my favorites (bold and red text mine mine). Notice that a good chunk of these people are still wet behind the ears and unemployed.
'We Can Open the Eyes of the World'
Name: Shane Stoops
Age: 23
From: Washington State
Occupation: Unemployed
Duration of protest: 3 Weeks
Reason for protest: Equality
Shane Stoops said he joined the protest when he heard about it in its infancy three weeks ago at a bar in Brooklyn. He came to check out what was going on at Zuccotti Park, and hasn't left since.
“I fell in love with this place, they are preaching the right message, equality, peace, everyone should have an equal right to everything. Nobody should have to pay for education, food, nobody should have to be suffering for medical care,” said Stoops. I wonder what Mr. Stoops would say if you asked who would pay for all of this food, education, and medical card. I guess it just falls out of the sky.
Stoops is a volunteer at the campsite and helps serve the donated food to protestors.
“I believe with this movement we can open the eyes of the world and show the people that we can live in a society where we don’t have to live in a currency-based economy,” Well, actually, um, we do. he said. “There’s no better message than what we are preaching here.”
(The image for this one has a sign saying "Verigreedywireless". :rolleyes)
'Wall Street Is Running the Show'
Name: Pat Welsh and Tom Smucker
Age: Both 62
From: Both from New York
Occupation: Both Retired Employees of the Local 1101 Communications Workers of America Union
Duration of protests: 1 Day
Reason for protests: Retirement Rights Read: the right to extort money from the company that hired you.
Tom Smucker and Pat Welsh are both retired employees of the Local 1101 Communications Workers of America Union. They joined the protestors for the first time Wednesday to voice their concerns about Verizon Communications’ contract renegotiations with union workers.
“Verizon is basically saying, 'It's out of date to have all these union benefits, in this day and age you have to agree to a lousier deal than you had in the past,' and Verizon is a very well off, affluent company that doesn't really need to be doing that,” Read: Verizon has enough money; surely they could stand to part with some of it. Smucker said. “It just feels, from my point of view, that this is a good moment to kick the union employees.”
Welsh agreed, but said it's pressure on Wall Street and in the boardrooms that has companies cornered to slash workers' benefits for the sake of corporate profits, he said. Without corporate profits there would be no benefits.
“I think they are actually looking them straight in the eye and saying 'It’s time for you to break these people, it’s time for you to bring them down a notch,” Is that a threat? Welsh said. “They did it with the united auto workers at GM, Chrysler, and Ford and I they’re going to try and do it to us now.”
(This guy doesn't even make sense.)
Name: Dossey Richards
Age: 18
From: New York
Occupation: High School Graduate
Duration of protest: 4 Days
Reason for protest: Support for New Government Policies
Dossey Richards noticed the protests while walking downtown. He said after spending sometime at the protestors campsite he decided to return on a daily basis.
“I came out here because I like the intentions of what’s going on. And I think that it shows other Americans that it’s very possible to get up and rise,” said Richards.
“You probably hear the more cliché answer, 'I want change,' but I want change in the ways that change is possible. Please explain what this change is and how it is to be brought about. I want change that is most practical as possible,” he said. “I want to see new policies that give us a real freedom, We have that; it's called the Constitution. I want to see less corruption, but I want to see less corruption done practically. Again, what and how? It’s a free market, it’s a free capitalistic market, but not a direct democracy.” He's right because direct democracies always fail.
Richards said he will return to the protests as long as they are going on.
Thanks for being so specific, Mr. Richards. :rolleyes
'We Need to Do a Do Over'
Name: Sue McAnanama
Age: 62
From: New York, Bronx
Occupation: Retired, Former Sales
Duration of protest: 3 Days
Reason for protest: Future Generations' Welfare, War
Sue McAnanama is no stranger to protests, the 62-year-old said she has participated in anti-war protests her whole life. Far out. McAnanama supports the current ‘Occupy Wall Street’ movement because it brings an array of issues together to fight for one common theme: change.
“They are saying, let’s look at the whole system and I think we can do it better. Why do liberals always speak in generalities? Could it be because they know that they're ideas don't work? That’s good,” McAnanama said.
One of the key issues she is most concerned about is the welfare of future generations, she said.
McAnanama is married to a retired public transit worker and said if it wasn’t for his pension, she does not how they would survive.
“I’m not here because I don’t have a roof over my head or I lost my mortgage, or anything like that. I had a good job, but I don’t have a pension, my husband gets a pension. These young people aren’t going to have that,” she said. “If you don’t have a pension though, how would you live? That’s why there are so many old people living in poverty. And young people who don’t even have them. It’s not the way we should be thinking about this country. Our whole world is upside down, so we need to just recalibrate. We need to do a do over.”
So who's gonna pay for all of these pensions? It's alright, I'll wait.
(This one is my personal favorite.)
'I Don’t Believe in Capitalism'
Name: Max Richmond
Age: 26
From: New York
Occupation: Carpenter
Duration of protest: 9 Days
Reason for protest: Control of the Government by Wealthy Corporations
Max Richmond has come down from upstate New York to Zuccotti Park since the beginning of the protests. He attends the protests Friday through Sunday then returns to upstate New York where he works as a carpenter during the week.
Richmond said he originally came out to protest “the domination of the American government by an extremely small percentage of the population that constitutes mostly the financial sector of our economy.”
And while Richmond is not protesting capitalism, he said our capitalistic system is not working.
“I don’t personally believe in capitalism, I bet this guy doesn't have a cell phone, an iPod, a computer, or a television since he doesn't believe in capitalism. :rolleyes I’m not trying to spread that or convince other people of the rightness of what I believe, but even if you do believe in the American dream and the traditional capitalist values of this country, we don’t live in that. We live in a corporate monopolism," said Richmond. “Personally, for me, beyond that, I would like to see the world of global capitalism replaces [sic] by a more community based interpersonal relationship of governing.”
Wow. Not only is that not specific (what exactly is a "community-based interpersonal relationship of governing" anyway?) it's a terrible idea.

The mob is really out right now, and the crowd is growing today...:rolleyes The Unions are joining them. I tell ya, you should read "The Coming Insurrection" by The Invisible Committee ~2009. All this stuff is right from the pages of this manual. Here is a excerpt from the back of the book..."It's useless to wait- for a breakthrough, for the revolution, the nuclear apocalypse or a social movement. To go on waiting is madness. The catastrophe is not coming, it is here. We are already situated within the collapse of a civilization. It is within this reality that we must choose sides".
It's a small book and I found mine on ebay (cheap). It's quite a interesting read.
Course, we all know things are gonna get wild and crazy in the future, our security is with the Lord, so we need not have any fear. :pray :hat

OCTOBER 15TH – UNITED FOR GLOBAL CHANGE
On October 15th people from all over the world will take to the streets and squares. From America to Asia, from Africa to Europe, people are rising up to claim their rights and demand a true democracy. Now it is time for all of us to join in a global non violent protest.
The ruling powers work for the benefit of just a few, ignoring the will of the vast majority and the human and environmental price we all have to pay. This intolerable situation must end.
United in one voice, we will let politicians, and the financial elites they serve, know it is up to us, the people, to decide our future.
We are not goods in the hands of politicians and bankers who do not represent us.
On October 15th, we will meet on the streets to initiate the global change we want. We will peacefully demonstrate, talk and organize until we make it happen.
It’s time for us to unite. It’s time for them to listen.
People of the world, rise up on October 15th!
