"FIGHT RIGHT OR GO HOME!"
I’m hearing reports from the field about throwing bottles and cans in
Oakland. I understand the frustration – I over-stand it! But real
change – the change that got blacks the right the vote, that freed South
Africa, that ended Vietnam – they were all NON-VIOLENT. For a reason.
They had MORAL POWER. This is the power that Christ harnessed.
I saw today a young black man, the newly designated Acting Police
Chief of Oakland, and he was SCARED. We need to bring these people on
our side, not fight them. If they are ordered to fight us, we will not
fight back. We will call for the removal of those leaders who are
forcing them fight their own brothers and sisters.
Throwing cans and bottles can may make you feel OK, but it’s not real
change. It’s a distraction. We don’t NEED bottles. What we have that
they didn't have during the 60's, we have a new way to organize. We are
connected via mobile phone, facebook, twitter, and platforms like
GlobalGrind.com. We got the people! America is with us. 88% of America
AGREES that corporate power has too much influence on poltiics and
Washington. They AGREE with getting our government away from the grips
of corporate control.
They will provoke you. They will vilify you. They will shoot our
heroes in the head with rubber bullets. They will burn our eyes with
chemicals. But, real courage is staying true to the principals of
non-violent complete radical change for the 99%. Every bottle we throw
is a bullet in the heart of our own movement. FIGHT RIGHT OR GO HOME!Read more: http://globalgrind.com/news/occupy-oakland-wall-street-police-pd-riot-scott-olsen-photos-pictures-russell-simmons#ixzz1bxLvSfoj
