I need to start an #OccupyWholeFoods movement which provides security for these Oakland morons. If I saw somebody attacking my local Whole Foods in ninja suits, I would exercise my 2nd amendment rights and start putting holes in them. Nobody touches my healthy food establishment. The store practically represents everything those hippy nut-wings stand for. This movement has lost all credibility. Congratulations Oakland, you ruined an entire movement. We hate your local OWS movement almost as much as we hate your football fans.
Go tell them about the globalists and how to fight them correctly, rather than wasting time finding reasons to marginalize them.edit on 7-11-2011 by L00kingGlass because: (no reason given)
We created these giant conglomerates, now we are lashing out at them?

They do not represent what OWS is about and for all we know they were goaded in to it by provocateurs. OK for instance a hand full of soldiers or more commit war crimes in Iraq "acting on their own accord" and then the entire Military as well as the US gets flack for it yet had no part in this. Now all the soldiers are being called murderers and thieves ect. Is this fair to the soldiers? Ummm NO! Same goes for the police, if a few cops abuse their authority and for instance shoot a marine in the face with a rubber bullet and as well as hospitalize another Soldier during the protest does this mean all police are thugs? NO! The so called OWS activists who commit crimes should be prosecuted for their actions as well as the police abusing Protesters be held accountable just like the Soldiers at Abu Ghraib prison!
AS WELL AS THOSE BANKERS THAT EXTORTED BILLIONS FROM THE PEOPLE!
One kid in the class room shoots a spit wad so the entire class has to stay after school: This line of thinking the actions of the few represent the many is a logical fallacy! The OWS haters are trying to paint a completely different picture of OWS then what it is, distorting reality. We are a non violent peaceful protest !

Small business is better for capitalism in my humble opinion.
Here's a genius way to fight them. Put down your signs, take off your masks, stop buying the latest laptop, registering for the latest social media website, buying the latest smart phone, and using big name banks. We created these giant conglomerates, now we are lashing out at them? Come on. We are the ones to blame, just to arrogant and ego-blown to admit it - especially the people at the OWS protests. Always looking for somebody to blame. Ceasing to use their services will make them disappear overnight.

Wait, you are upset because they have great sushi? Presumably you think that McDonalds is regularly attacked in protests of this kind because they serve fast food? Or if Starbuck is sometimes attacked its because they serve bad, overpriced coffee???
The wages of the staff, the corporate (ir)responsiblity of the company, the negative effect on the environment, the way that small farmers are forced out of business, the company policies on intensive farming in the US and foreign countries. Let not think about that!
I'm not condoning attacks on Whole Foods, I don't support it. But I do condemn ignorance that states that a place is above criticism because it sells something tasty...
Ohhhhh. You're with anonymous. My bad. I was generally referring to everyone covering their faces really.
Show you are an American, you have an identity, and you have a friggen' point to make!
None of the people you are fighting hide their identity, they live in the eyes of the public every day. I hope I am never subject to your super powers...they sound scary! haha.
Masks aside, what do you think of the actual point I was trying to make?
“We don’t tell anyone,” she said. “We handle it internally. I said too much already.”...................Would NOW not consider this a toxic environment for women? A movement where its leaders DISCOURAGE the reporting of rapes and sexual assault? How much longer will NOW remain silent?
