My husband and I have had kitchen table conversations since about 2008 wondering why people were not "rioting in the streets."
As, OWS, this beautiful, inchoate, non-violent movement has organically grown, we have one thing to say. Finally!
Enough is enough.
We are tired of watching our neighbors get kicked out into the streets by fat cat banksters who are able to make loan mods for families and instead line their pockets.
We are tired of watching food costs go up, up , up and our paychecks can't stretch far enough to feed our families.
We are tired of watching our constitution and our flag being pissed on by the authorities, mayors, city councils and police. What happened to our freedom to assemble? How dare our press be brutalized and kept from the story like we are a 3rd world country?
My heart is broken because it is clear that we do not currently live in the land of the free. But we are awake now! Expect us to confront you and all the powers that be to right these wrongs.
The battle has just begun.
