A little advice , find what joins the majority and stick to it. In our past near history Patrick Pearse wrote a song in Irish that changed the revolution, more of a simple poem, “oro se bheatha bhaile”. It may be simple but it has worked throughout time, be a uniter, not a devider. Here is a video of a simple poem sung to a melody has changed history http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRNou-7gI4o&list=FL8WN3v7ywuoYz2Fe3vGremg&index=2&feature=plpp_video . Please use widipedia to translate the poem.

While I understand that many were determined to be arrested, and many others chose to leave within th past 36 hours, I continue to believe that the strongest final message would have been to leave upon the request in a final show of Solidarity within OB itself
.
Josh, what is the state of camp from over at OH?
I visited OB over Thanksgiving, and was wondering what happened to the Gandhi statue donated by the abbey when the protestors were evicted?
This has been the whole problem with the movement since it started. You want to yell about wall street’s greet, and that they don’t care about the common man, but then you all destroy property and cause problems at every turn, which costs the tax payer even more. I know you won’t allow this post to go to print, but the truth has t hurt. How are you guys any better than wall street? The OWS movement in my town just cost the city 800,000.00 to clean up. Guess who has to pay that money out. That’s right, me and my family. At least when wall street screws me, they do it peacefully.
