    I'm surprised there isn't a thread here already about this. Here's what I found:

    Martial law?

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=FQeGtCL_Ov0

    @~2:15 of the video a cop says, "You go outside, they grab you, you get arrested. Right now they are telling everybody to disperse. It's almost like the government coming in and saying it's martial law, but its not."

    "Yes it is," a student responds.

    It's like this.

    It's all fun and games until things get serious.

    Then we get serious.

    Cheers.

    Sincerely,

    The very aware, self-sacrificing, and increasingly maniacal youth waiting for the call from our elders to finish the job they didn't have the courage to. <3 No time like the present to finish the work started years innumerable ago.

    No that wasn't a military arrest. The military doesn't wear BDU's anymore. Good try with your propaganda.

    Propaganda? I asked a question. You didn't find it disturbing?

    That-that-that is the definition of Propaganda.

    I have heard that in some of these videos that the boot laces were out, and that is of course a big no no for military...But who knows, that clearly doesn't stamp out the possibility of private security firms doing the dirty work I guess.

    -The key is not to fear.
    -What do you have to fear?
    -Loss of your job, way of life, friends, family?
    -Do you really call that fear?
    Are you THAT domesticated/emasculated/flaccid/neutered/submissive that you would let a bully push, all bark with no bite, push you around?
    -None of those were yours to begin with, you just experienced them.
    -Let go of what would make you fear experiencing the unfamiliar to be free.

    There is no authority or hierarchy on this planet other than that of our egos, which decays and will be stripped from us forcefully if we don't let it flow away.

    Do that, and no intimidation will move you from your equilibrium.

    We need angels now more than ever that will look upon a crowd and see caged brethren that need release. It will come to pass, if things continue, that these protesters will be at peace with the loss of their livelyhood and endure their suffering in such a happily maddening way that the world will be shocked into no longer forgetting how powerful each person is individually to be connected with the One and All.

    We forget how strong we really are.
