A Call for Reinforcements
Hey jammers,
#OCCUPYWALLSTREET is happening right now at Liberty Plaza!
It started last Saturday, when 5,000 Americans descended on to the financial district of Lower Manhattan, waved signs, unfurled banners, beat drums, chanted slogans and proceeded to walk towards the "financial Gomorrah" of the nation. They vowed to "occupy Wall Street" and to "bring justice to the bankers", but the New York police thwarted their efforts, locking down the symbolic street with barricades and checkpoints. Undeterred, protesters walked laps around the area before holding a people's assembly and setting up a semi-permanent protest encampment in a park on Liberty Street, a stone's throw from Wall Street and a block from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Three hundred spent the night, several hundred reinforcements arrived the next day and as we write this, the encampment is digging in for a long-term stay. #OCCUPYWALLSTREET has been established in Zuccotti Park, which has now been renamed Liberty Plaza. With Liberty Plaza liberated, and acting as a base in the financial district, the indignados have been sending out raiding parties to nearby Wall Street and beyond.
Bravo to those courageous souls in the encampment on New York's Liberty Street. Every night that #OCCUPYWALLSTREET continues will escalate the possibility of a full-fledged global uprising against business as usual.
Now, it is crucial for everyone from all over the world to flock to the encampment. Call in to work sick, invite your friends and hop on a bus or plane to New York City.
We need you at Liberty Plaza!
for the wild,

There are 1.5 million New Yorkers living in poverty, 1 in 5 people in NYC.
That's 20% of the population of the 5 Boroughs.
Unemployment in NYC is over 10%, roughly 350,000 people without jobs.
Why aren't even as little as 1% of either these 2 groups at the Liberty Square Protests?
The Organization and Messaging SUCKS and this is a FAIL.
Lose the stupid Guy Fawkes masks, NOBODY likes those, and you are driving people away with them.

first you don't understand the meaning of the masks they represent the gunpowder plot which was a failed attempt to overthrow king james and the Parliament in the 1600s, the meaning behind the masks are symbolic in every way if you know the history of the United States FOR America then you would realize the mask represents much more than what you were taught, guy fawkes should be the number one true icon for america, his original ideas essentially lead to the birth of most powerful and amazing country on planet earth, the united states for america, any patriot would know that fawkes actions paved the way for the most beautiful nation in this world and it all started with the american revolution which resulted in the declaration of independence that made our wonderful country a sovereign nation abolishing all ties and associations from the british crown and king james" dictatorship, guy fawkes is truly a noble world icon that was silenced by the largest terrorist attack ever accomplished on February, 21st 1871 and that same terrorist organization is now occupying the seat of the most powerful nation in the world and it was carried out in stealth darkness one sad night, and today this terrorist group still operates from the foreign territory on our own soil, this organization is responsible for the most misery and destruction ever performed against humankind and we the citizens fund their whole agenda, this organization of terror and death designated itself ruler of the sovereign states of america and its called washington dc, we the people have been conditioned to believe this entity is looking out for the best interest for our rights but in all reality it takes our own money and uses it fund mass crimes against humanity and denies our rights, and all these events are performed under a false motive of security but in all reality it jeopardizes our freedom and liberty every time a dollar bill is used, that same dollar bill once belonged to us was hijacked and stolen by one of the terrorist organizations affiliates the federal reserve and on top of that they take the same dollar bill and loan it back to us with profit bearing interest attached in the form of taxes, and that's why the fawkes masks are worn proudly to send a message to the terrorist organizations C.I.A which really stands for COUNTRIES INTENTIONALLY ABOLISHED, the f.b.i stands for FORCED.BREACH of INFRASTRUCTURE. and the a.t.f stands for ABSOULTE.TREASON. of FREEDOM and we the people the true rulers of OUR land are taking all our property back and will not contribute to the alienation of our fellow human beings, we will not endorse the killing of innocent people, we will not endorse treason of other countries resources, we are not equipment owned by the terrorist corporation, The Corrupt fear us, The Honest support us, The Heroic Join us.

#OccupyOneVoice
The goal of a peaceful demonstration is to convey a message to the masses that change is comming. Currently, the media for the masses is portraying the sit-in as a hodgepodge of messages and people with no clear leader or direction. They seek to discredit the lasting impact of the protest.
As one voice- I say,
Make the message about Revolution
Craft it as Democracy, Of the People and For the People and
Know that this is the Time for Outrage.
