#1 A tax payer funded revolution? How revolutionary.
"The best way to get money out of politics is to make government bigger." crowd.

Check this out:
"In every age, nevertheless, men and women are tempted to overthrow the limitations upon power, for the sake of some fancied temporary advantage. It is characteristic of the radical that he thinks of power as a force for goodso long as the power falls into his hands. In the name of liberty, the French and Russian revolutionaries abolished the old restraints upon power; but power cannot be abolished; it always finds its way into someones hands. That power which the revolutionaries had thought oppressive in the hands of the old regime became many times as tyrannical in the hands of the radical new masters of the state.
Knowing human nature for a mixture of good and evil, the conservative does not put his trust in mere benevolence. Constitutional restrictions, political checks and balances, adequate enforcement of the laws, the old intricate web of restraints upon will and appetitethese the conservative approves as instruments of freedom and order. A just government maintains a healthy tension between the claims of authority and the claims of liberty."

From the Kirk center.

#2 protestors worldwide have joined in the movement against financiers and politicians they accuse of ruining global economies.

Only a matter of time before they "realize" that it isn't all financiers and politicians---just the ones from a certain ethnic background.

#3 I consider it a siege. Lets see how long the protesters can feed and support themselves. Let Sorros pay to feed his army of demanding brats.

#4 So are the masks more or less uncomfortable than the black ski masks such idiots used to wear to show how cool they were?

You don't wear your Halloween costume to Mardi Gra. The ski masks are for G8 and IMF meetings.

The Guy Fawkes mask is an example of the triumph of popular narrative over real history which was one of the fundamental missions of the left in destroying your education system.

#9 The Death of Marat, JL David, depicted Marat dead in his skin bath with a letter of love for country. As the story goes, the papers he was really signing were death sentences.

#12 Any online discussion of problems with the money system, financial system, and/or banking will sooner or later be contaminated with Judenhaß.
Just know that ahead of time & keep an eye out for it. No reason at all to be surprised by it.

#13 About time for a collective (emphasis on collective) chorus of "We Are the World." Kumbaya.
