is showing line of riot police standing down the protesters. I was on my way down with my kids to join the Saturday rally. The police moved in with no known reason. They have a permit. Arrests are being made with no known reason.

Went to Domo for lunch and said that white vans left headquarters and started driving toward the park with cops hanging off the sides laughing. They had plastic cuffs in their free hands and seemed to be having a great time gearing up for a day of starting shit during a perfectly legal and peaceful protest. WTF is wrong with Denver??

1. This is the face of the "new" America and IMO it's going to

get a hell of a lot worse. It's sad and pathetic what we have become, and even more sad and pathetic are those that gleefully do the bidding of the 1%. We have become a sick society.

2. How the hell did we come to all this?

OWS is pulling back curtains on a whole lot of social ills.

5. We've become an out of control capitalistic country which

is just as bad as any of the other 'isms' when out of control. It's only going to grow worse and worse as the 1% and TPTB feel more threatened and their lies and propaganda are revealed more and more. This has become a sick country. Frankly, I'm frightened of our future. I remember the regimes from the 30's/40's too well. I see the same earmarkings as have others. And we can't look toward our gov. for solutions because many have been bought and bribed.

7. It's always been like this for some people...

Minorities (particularly blacks), the homeless/poor, hippies, basically anyone who isn't middle class or better and white.

I grew up as one of the upper class in an officially apartheid regime, right here in the USA.
