40. "Paranoia strikes deep"
Although in this case it's happening to the right people (not you, the OP- I mean)... TPTB in your company seem to be projecting their fears out to you as an employee. Hoping perhaps you agree, and see OWS as a potentially scary enemy just as they do???

On a related note, it's funny how they are painting OWS as a violent, unfocused group of vagrants and ne'er-do-wells. Assuming this memo went out to everyone in the OP's workplace, I wonder if they (TPTB) really believe this? Or is it possibly a desperate attempt to keep their 'lesser' employees from sympathizing with the overall movement??? Serious Q here...

Any Psychology/Sociology types here? Would love to know what you think of this.

Oh, and of course thanks to the OP for sharing. K&R!
