Demonstrators Plan to Occupy Retailers on Black Friday Some demonstrators are planning to occupy retailers on Black Friday to protest "the business that are in the pockets of Wall Street." Organizers are encouraging consumers to either occupy or boycott retailers that are publicly traded, according to the Stop Black Friday website. The goal of the movement is to impact the profits of major corporations this holiday season. "The idea is simple, hit the corporations that corrupt and control American politics where it hurts, their profits, " states the Occupy Black Friday Facebook page. A few of the retailers the protesters plan on targeting include Neiman Marcus, Amazon and Wal-Mart. Their website states the following: "Keep in mind that we are not occupying small businesses or hardworking people—we must make a distinction between the businesses that are in the pockets of Wall Street and the businesses that serve our local communities. We are NOT anti-capitalist. Just anti-crapitalist. Below is a shortlist for publicly traded large businesses to Occupy or to boycott on Black Friday. Luckily, most of them don't have good presents anyway. If you want to see the top 100 retail businesses for 2010 to boycott, click here. On Black Friday, Occupy or boycott: - Abercrombie & Fitch [ANF 45.85 -0.62 (-1.33%) ] - Amazon.com (yes, we have to stay away from Amazon, too!)

This is not the first time the demonstrators have taken action against corporations by using their money as weapon for change.

The Occutards that trespass and disrupt enterprise on private property need to have their heads occupied with Louisville Sluggers®. That would either knock some sense into their hard heads or put them out of their misery. Either way, it's a win-win for all concerned.
That at least is how the German nazis viewed 'The Night of the Broken Crystal,' when they lynched, beat, tortured and murdered people because they were Jews and because they scapegoated them as much as you play the scapegoat artist here.
That's the way I view it too, thugs trashing other people's property and stealing their stuff. The Jews could have used a few baseball bats too that night.
So you are a fascist who loathes justice and due process. I don't see how arguing you side of this in that fashion exactly wins you any ground. But then again, you hate discussion anyway; you just want to put out your side and have everyone agree with it. There is never any point to have any high expectations of you.
You don't get the point, people who claim a right trespass and steal other people's property are the fascists. If somebody breaks into your treehouse and starts smoking your weed and eating your tofu and organic beansprouts are going to wait to find a court to evict him or are you going to protect your property then and there?
I don't smoke weed, hate tofu and bean sprouts. And you get everything else wrong or distorted in your posts, so what else is new?
Its a thought exercise moron, try to imagine it. Why are you liberals so effing anal?
You sure taking your time to the point you wanted to talk about in your post. Why do you people focus every time on the anus? I'm sure I should respect the conservative cultural affectation for this scatological fascination you filter every day life through. But there is no point to being that empathetic. We have HQ wanting to beat people with bats, and you are living life focused on the anal orifice. Maybe you to should get together, him on top, you on bottom. It might at least keep you two out of trouble.
The founders killed the liberals with guns.
So you are saying the only way to deal with political opinions is to shoot whomever you do not agree with?
No. I am just pointing out a historical fact. That is one of the last options.
You are making harebrained comparisons calling the Redcoats liberals. So, I am just trying to find some level in your comment that has some baseline of common sense. So, you are going to go out and shoot people if they never ever take on your opinions?
Both redcoats and liberals hate the constitution. So they have a commonality.
From the Redcoat point of view, the Minutemen and the Tea party participants were liberals. Since they were fighting against the corporate/state alliance set up by England for the colonies.

Uh. It was taxation without representation. You know kind of like the democrats welfare society they have damned us with. Liar liar your pants are on fire! Show me a quote from that era where they mentioned fighting the corporate/state alliance. You can't do that can you?
