Stand Up! Chicago

Awsomeness. This can happen anywhere. Let this idea spread!

9. I agree. We need to preserve this and mimic it elsewhere.

8. Them Suits were none too happy
But to their credit, they quickly realized herding cats or nailing jello to a tree would be easier then silencing those wonderful community organizers from Chicago.

15. Great comments on the clip-
The mic check is the best thing so far to come out of the occupy movement. Better than just one person yelling that can easily be dismissed or escorted out of the room. Can't do that to a whole bunch of folks.

AWESOME VIDEO!!!

I love how the non-occupiers can't figure out how to handle the situation. "Hey, hey, hey," dude just gets squelched! The guy who tried to stop the video and presumably grabbed the camera (cell phone?) only to be admonished, "no hands," by another person, presumably committed battery when he touched the camera. I would love to seethe video up to and including the protesters walking out at the end.

Whose breakfast with the governor? Our breakfast with the governor!!!!

I like the breakfast line. Shorten it to 'Who's Breakfast? OUR Breakfast!' and I think we have yet another winner.
