Reply #165: You're overthinking this.

I used to live in downtown Long Beach, CA. Every weekend I would don gloves, boots and a particle mask to clean all the human feces, garbage, used hypodermic needles, crack pipes, liquor bottles, clothing, and god-knows-what else from the alley that ran behind my house. Next week would always greet me with a fresh crop o' crap. Taking simple precations to protect one's self doesn't seem as conspiratorial to me as it does to you.

After reading this thread it appears that you are overly emotionally invested in OWS and percieve many benign comments or questions as attacks on the movement by enemies or idiots.
