No it is not. Care to show us exactly where in the world anyone is watching?
Nobody cares about a few left wing protestors, there are much more important things in life.
Like a famine in Africa www.unicef.org.au...
floods in Pakistan www.dawn.com...
So a few protestors, busy using their smartphones and ipads etc. trying to claim that they are hard up does not get very far.

Some people are just unable to handle the facts about this protest - it is NOT a big protest, and most people just do not care!

The world is definitely watching, it is being reported live on the BBC news right now. News reporter speaking to a Protestor on the Brooklyn Bridge, as soon as he mentioned, those Ladies being pepper-sprayed by that officer from the NYPD. They ended the interview.edit on 1-10-2011 by AnonymousFem because: (no reason given)
I was part of the peaceful march today that ended in an untold--and uncalled for--amount of arrests. The march began in good spirits from Liberty Plaza with people chanting “We are the 99 percent!” and “All day, all week, occupy Wall Street!” The entire time, the marchers stayed on the sidewalks while the the police ushered us to the Brooklyn Bridge, clearly aware of our route. When we neared the bridge people began to walk on the left side of the lane that goes from Manhattan to Brooklyn (cars could still pass) as police looked on and guided them. Not wanting to completely obstruct traffic, the rest of the protesters walked on the pedestrian thoroughfare. Everything was going smoothly until we go to the middle of the bridge--then chaos broke loose.

Read readers comments, a lot of them were on place, and describe pretty accurately police's behavior.

Thank you NYPD, keep up at good job in fueling the protests.
