Then OBVIOUSLY you have NO clue what is going on. Thank you for being the good little zombie that you are and spreading bullshit opinions that only prove how horribly delusional and naive you people can be.

The city and federal govt are creating the burden on the people by not listening to those it purports to represent. Think bigger.

Funny how the rightwingers are always the biggest crybabies while they decry what they call a culture of vicitmhood.

The only reason these two are upset is because they’re mad that they’re becoming increasingly irrelevant.

Haha… well, that’s not what the data says. It says that giveaways of deficit funded tax rebates the rich have cause income inequality to widen. But hey, those are just economic facts. might as well hate on “dumb” people event thought he birthrate has been falling for a while now.

Speaking or kids, you have any? Haha. I KID, I KID.

Wow, if the cleanup down there cost a million dollars, the city needs a new contractor. I went down there the day it was cleared and it looked almost exactly like the day the protest started. Maybe if the cops had allowed the protesters to take their property with them, there wouldn’t have been even the little that there was to clean up…

Anyway, don’t believe everything Lars Larson tells you. I’d invite you to go look with your own two eyes, because that park is absolutely not a wreck.

Do you even know WHY this is going on? A $1000 fine? You are a FOOL. They’re out there because it’s the ONLY place to be heard. You won’t listen to them talk on their alternative media sources, so they go the streets. This isn’t about not having to work or wanting to be a nuisance. This is about doing what is right for the people, even if that means SELF SACRIFICE. And like you said, we CAN’T do anything about clean up because they won’t let us. You also have to remember, a number of those people who created a mess are used to living in some of the worst environments, so hygiene is not a commonality amongst them. Besides, the reason there are so few parks and that you FEEL the need to protect a small grassy area is because of the greed that has cause us to concentrate a city in order to maintain productivity in the business world. The theory of relativity applies to EVERYTHING. That’s why it’s called the theory of RELATIVITY…

P.S. You’re assuming the people who have been treated like scum ALL their life by OUR peers actually care about a measly LITTLE city park MORE than they care about being treated like scum. Please wake up, you’re SOO close. All you need to do is question EVERYTHING. Even yourself…

Sam,
Your response echoes my feelings (and I’m sure a great many other people also)exactly. We know that there is a problem and something needs to be done about it. However, “occupying” a piece of turf is not the answer. It would also help their cause if the Occupy Portland people would pay attention to what they are putting forth in correspondence such as this “open letter to the people of Portland”. A portion of one of the paragraphs in this letter states, “we enjoy our environment and our parks”, yet they totally trashed Chapman and Lownsdale. To me, that shows a bit of hypocrisy on their part.

Where the hell do you get your information, fox news? Do you have ANY clue how difficult it is to get by on even a $10 an hour job? Most of us are merely trying to get a fair share for our work. Just because most are uneducated does not mean they deserve less. Only a selfish ass would think that. These people don’t have access to a good education because all the good schools are in places like west linn and lake oswego. You blame the bum for not working when you yourself would not work for the scraps that they BARELY have access to. Get a clue, you ignorant twit.
The dog days are over.
Can you hear the horses?
Cause hear they come!!!!

If you all won’t finish this, I WILL!!!!!

Steve, you are either a dis-informant or a complete idiot. If you are going to be throwing around the same rhetoric and red herrings as the people who caused this situation, then you prove nothing more than your ignorance. The fact that you think $1 million dollars was spent on this ordeal only shows how little you have been paying attention. It’s rather comical how you defend the politicians’ misuse of our tax dollars and then complain about it, all in the same thread. Dis-informant or not, you are clearly an idiot. You think it’s disappointing that the police didn’t use more brutal force? I think it’s disappointing that zombies like you still exist. How stupid can you be? I hope, for your sake, that you are a dis-informant. Though, your punishment will be MUCH more severe, if you are.

Get a good seat, cause it’s gunna be a HELL of a show!!!

Good luck out there!!!

VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!!
