    OWS does not want to give food to the less fortunate.... WTF???

    Perhaps I'm missing something here. I thought that the OWS movement was all about giving to those who have less? Does that only apply when they use the government to force others to give to the less fortunate? Shouldn't they start by volunteering to give to those who have less than they do? Something doesn't add up here....

    "The Occupy Wall Street volunteer kitchen staff launched a “counter” revolution yesterday -- because they’re angry about working 18-hour days to provide food for “professional homeless” people and ex-cons masquerading as protesters.

    For three days beginning tomorrow, the cooks will serve only brown rice and other spartan grub instead of the usual menu of organic chicken and vegetables, spaghetti bolognese, and roasted beet and sheep’s-milk-cheese salad."

    "Newly sprung ex-cons and vagrants rousted from other parks are crashing the Occupy Wall Street protest, where gourmet meals are free and boozy, drughafueled parties are on tap, the movement’s leaders griped yesterday.

    “They’re telling people who leave prison to go to Zuccotti Park,” lamented Daniel Zetah, a leader of the OWS community-relations group.

    Volunteer Lauren Digioia, 26, said, “We have drug dealing going on here, gang activity, public intoxication. There are a lot of instigators. There are a lot of vultures.

    “Everyone knows we give out free food and sleeping bags, and it’s a perfect opportunity for squatters.”

    FEEDING FRENZY: Occupy Wall Street organizers say legitimate protesters like these are being overrun by released Rikers inmates and derelicts who come to Zuccotti Park for the free gourmet meals.

    Digioia said she recently met a man who just before getting sprung from Rikers, was told by a fellow inmate to hit Zuccotti for the free accommodations.

    The frustrated organizers said they’re brainstorming how to launch a protest within the protest to target the drunken, stoned layabouts."

    ___________

    So wouldn't they WANT to feed the homeless and the ex-convicts who are obviously much more victims of the evil system than the OWS people themselves that are eating so well?

    That sounds delicious. No wonder the homeless wanted it.

            It's kind of ironic. This small few, the kitchen staff, decides who gets to eat good food and who doesn't. How can you not laugh at that?

            Of course, I don't blame them one bit.

              No, you've been listening to the media spin, OWS is about corruption on Wall Street.

                    Screw basing opinions on media spin, that's what the left wingers on this board seem to do when they were judging the tea party as a bunch of racists. I'm basing this on the stuff that I heard when I went down to occupy Miami myself, I've actually been down there twice

                        Yup, because the idiotic videos that moron posts aren't propaganda or a spin, but when someone posts something of the opposite nature, ALL SPIN BABY! Love the double standards and the single minded stupidity of stocktrader23.

                                You would bitch about the drunks and drugs if they let them come there and eat (which they are indeed doing). If they don't let the drugs and drunks come, well here you are bitching anyway. You are the biggest fucking whiner on GFY, and that's saying something. Sit back and watch the revolution happen, knowing none of your posts will do anything to discourage the movement.

                                    Really? He's the one always starting threads and bitching? Interesting. Or is it possible that his opinion differs from yours and while you blindly support this idiotic movement, you can't be bothered to be objective, that is viewing the other side, so you whine and bitch about said other side. Can we say hypocrite? Also, LOL@revolution.

                                        The frustrated organizers said they?re brainstorming how to launch a protest within the protest to target the drunken, stoned layabouts."

                                        So wouldn't they WANT to feed the homeless and the ex-convicts who are obviously much more victims of the evil system than the OWS people themselves that are eating so well?

                                          so once you get rid of the homeless, the drug dealers, the gang members and the ex cons, the movement is even smaller than reported.
                                          instead of hundreds, there are tens.

                                            So they occupy the parks and bitch about homeless people who live there?

                                            They are bitching that they don't have jobs, but don't want to staff the kitchens because the homeless are showing up for free food? Don't want to feed the homeless?

                                            What the fucks does OWS want?

                                                      OWS is about students and working class people -- they share your resentment of what is perceived as "useless bums."

                                                      Why are you surprised?

Most of the people down there are drug addict homeless people that are just coming for the food and other free shit. They found guys who just got released from prison down there for the free meal. People who can care less about the cause.

                                                                        I'm not sure what OWS is "against" or what they are for. They seem to be against "big business" but can't live without their iPhones, and they also seem to have no objection to paying $6 for a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

                                                                        When this first started, I remember watching an interview where the protester was using an iMac and drinking Starbucks. She asked a few great questions, and then asked "Is stock in Apple up or down today". The protester was dumbfounded and failed to understand how the question was relevant. The next question was "How much did you pay for that cup of coffee" and the protester looked at him with stink eyes. It was comical.

                                                                        So let me see if I understand this correctly... OWS is against freeloaders, but want to take the money away from the big corporations and the 1%, and give that money to.... People who haven't earned it? (i.e. "freeloaders").

                                                                        That's irony in the strongest sense of the word.

Does that only apply when they use the government to force others to give to the less fortunate? Shouldn't they start by volunteering to give to those who have less than they do?

OWS is against freeloaders, but want to take the money away from the big corporations and the 1%, and give that money to.... People who haven't earned it? (i.e. "freeloaders").

                                                                                  That's irony in the strongest sense of the word.

                                                                                  corporations for example allow you to pay expenses with pre tax dollars while regular people have to pay them with after tax dollars

                                                                                  corporations pay lower income taxes when regular people do


                                                                                  and so on

                                                                                  it not about taking money away from one group and giving it to another it about taking away the preferential treatment so that everyone has a equal chance to get rich.

                                                                                  once your rich those tax loopholes make it easy as hell to get even richer

                                                                                  while the reverse is also true once your poor it hard and harder to dig yourself out of that whole even if you get a good job.

                                                                                    This weekend, the kitchen staff is setting up tents and organizing things so they can provide hot meals under the current weather.

                                                                                    Because it requires time, they're cutting down on the complexity of evening meals and setting up actual closing times, instead of the roughly 24/7 schedule they've been running (depending on whether they had people awake although IME it's been close to 24 hours some days).

                                                                                    What they are not doing is turning away homeless people. In fact they're still feeding anyone who shows up. And for their efforts, and the efforts of the volunteer kitchen staffs at every occupation, I think we should extend a big thank you to them.
