some info for those confused. this took all of 5 minutes to find out for myself.
What/why they are protesting: "OWS is fighting back against the corrosive power of major banks and multinational corporations over the democratic process, and the role of Wall Street in creating an economic collapse that has caused the greatest recession in generations." Source: http://occupywallst.org/about/ Why Prostest?: From the wikipedia definition of protest- "Protesters may organize a protest as a way of publicly making their opinions heard in an attempt to influence public opinion or government policy" Some examples of successful protests: American Revolution Martin Luther King's 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 | ||
