Tomorrow another historic day starts for Greece... today was without doubt the biggest demonstrations that Greece has ever seen... People were demonstrating even in small towns in the Greek islands and even in villages all the shops were closed! Tomorrow we continue... Reports are calculating that in total up to 900.000 people were on the streets across Greece with Athens having about 500.000 people on the streets. Keep in mind that the international media are saying 50.000-70.000 at the syntagma square alone! but all the streets around were full!
Once again the media focus on the violence, but if you see the big picture and the numbers the violence that was caused by a few hundreds of people is like a needle in the stack... The truth be told most of the Greek people are in the edge of becoming violent against the police and maybe each other... the rage has grown in them so much that it can explode any day now... I do not know if this is good or bad, but it is a fact

This Guy is a f4cking Inspiration, and f4ck all that talk that hes a spokeperson for african american's! even though im black but... he speaks for every ethnicity out there! hes completely right, we have brutality beating Cops in Canada too, but f4ck.. its not as bad as America though.The world must be coming to an end when 30 plus cops have no reaction to one Black man. normally on any given day, they wouldve beaten the shit out of a "Nigger".

He's a good man; an inspiration, a dedicated man to his people and country. I live in England, but even this touched my heart.
Twenty people wanted to close their accounts @ City Bank. It's believed that five were arrested.
Group of Citi Bank customers attempt to close accounts as a form of protest- 2 dozen are locked inside bank until police arrive, 5 cops take down woman
they were all customers of city bank. They were all going to close there acount. Even tho they went in as a group why should they be arrested they all had legitimate business. This is a messed up system were people are getting arested for doing legal actions with symbolism. So there only crime was trying to close there acounts because they felt that occupy wall st had a point.
We can see in this video, that: Citibank Criminal Banksters, and The NYPD, kidnapped, and force that lady inside the bank.
The NYPD, was suppose to help the lady in the video, not help the bank commit the crime of Kidnaping!!!
A comment wroted on DRY 15 October International Mobilization Take the Square Anti-Banks Global Protest, that shows the real american situation, that, in fact, is the same as the European.
All for the Banks Banksters Gangsters, the Evil 1%, and taxes, and taxes, and more taxes for the people, the 99%, that is geting unsleaved by Evil Banksters.
BIG BANKS are destroying our community while WORKING FAMILIES are struggling to make ends meet Big banks like Bank of America took billions of ou tax dollars, but refuse to pay their own taxes. We bailed them out, yet we’re the ones being forced out of our homes. While the CEOs rake in millions in salary and bonuses, working families continue to struggle. In fact, janitors in over 20 cities across the country are uniting on to fight for better wages and working conditions. Over the next year, negotiations that will impact the wages and benefits of tens of thousands of janitors across the country will be taking place, including contracted janitors that work in downtown Providence. Providence’s janitors will be rallying in solidarity with other working families to hold banks accountable and fight for an economy that works for all. Stand up against banks like Bank of America that are bankrupting our community and to push for an agenda that puts us, the people, first! Join us to say NO to big banks and YES to working families. R A L L Y in downtown Providence Wednesday, September 28 @ 4:00pm Bank of America building at 111 Westminster St.
This is why we fight and organized the May 15, the June 19 protests against the Euro Pact, and the OCTOBER 15 Global Mass protests for real democracy.
WAKE UP!
ITS TIME TO REVOLT!
RISE UP, ITS US OR THEM!
WE ARE THE 99%!
They are the 1%!
When Injustice Becomes Law, REVOLUTION BECOMES DUTY!
Quando a Injustiça se Torna Lei, REVOLUÇÃO É UM DEVER!
Cuando la Injusticia sew Torna Lei, Revolucion es Un Dever!

American Revolution Occupy Wall Street Decorated US Marines Sgt Shamar Thomas Stand Up For People Against NYP Police Brutality
This is the ACTUAL MARINE from the Video. I will say 1st that I don't hate the Police or more specifically the NYPD. My Great-Grandfather, Grandfather, Mother, and Step-Father have all served in Combat Zones. I was deployed to Iraq in 04 and 06. My 1st Combat Action was in Fallujah 2004. My parents both served for 20 plus years. We fought for the American Citzens without complaint. All to come home and see INNOCENT Citzens get Brutalize by the Police they must Trust. No HONOR in that. SEMPER FI
@SgtShamarThomasUSMC I know you don't hate the police or the NYPD neither do most citizens ... but your display of outrage so perfectly summed up what many of us feel after what we have been witnessing via citizen reports. My father and grandfather were Canadian veterans in both world wars so i respect and honour you sir. Thanks!
Tryptophantom
You know your country is fucked up when a soldier gets laughed at by a police officer.
Mad respect to the Marine though, he had the balls to say what everyone else was thinking.

@SgtShamarThomasUSMC Navy Seabee Iraq war combat vet here ( Fallujah 05-06). You Marines always had our backs. I see you haven't let up! Thank you for still fighting for the Constitution and Human Rights.
seabeejg
thank god for people like this man.....upholding his oath to serve and protect THE PEOPLE of this country.....not to serve and protect the criminal scum (politicians/federal reserve) ruining this country
The Federal Reserve is a privately owned bank which CANNOT be audited
wallyszabo
Blah blah blah SUPPORT THE TROOPS blah blah blah. Then the troops come home from one fight to face this one.
Only the 99% actually support the troops. The 1% robbed them of many of their benefits, and post-service job prospects. The 1% are the ones who invent all the stupid wars, and then send our noble soldiers off to fight for ignoble causes.
I am sick of our soldiers AND OUR POLICE being used this way! We the people need to take our nation back.
ToolPackinMama
And all the honor goes to you, Marine Sgt Shamar Thomas! Thank you for standing up to those police/bullies who feel abuse the power that WE have vested in them!
Simply put, you rock!

A true hero..... and an honorable man all respect to you sir...
Michel Montecrossa's 'Talking Italy, Portugal, Spain Austerity - song for 15 October 2011 Global Mass Protests'
Michel Montecrossa says:
"The song 'Talking Italy, Portugal, Spain Austerity' is dedicated to the Global Mass Protests of 15 October 2011, the day of Global Revolution for change in finance and politics.
'Austerity', 'Downgrading', 'Bail Out' are slogans used by bankas and politos to hide the simple trick of taking away the people's tax money and giving it to the banks and the rich so that the 99% get poorer and the 1% gets richer.
Italy, Portugal, Spain, Greece and always more countries are threatened by this wrong banka and polito action.""
Parlare dell'austerità di Italia, Portogallo, Spagna
Ora ci guidano lungo la strada del dolore
la gente di Italia, Portogallo, Spagna.
Così come lo hanno fatto con la gente della grecia
ci sono downgrade a favore dei ricchi.
Una guerra infuria tra politos e bankas
per il potere su di noi, il popolo.
I bankas ora vincono quasi tutti i giorni
e ci spingono giù sulla via della povertà.
Gente svegliatevi! Gente alzatevi!
La gente sa quello che la gente ha bisogno!
La gente può liberare la gente!
La gente, si sa, la gente siamo noi!
Speculatori bancari vogliono le nostre tasse
per avere i fondi salvataggio per loro,
vogliono il controllo su di noi, l'unico valore reale
facendoci diventare schiavi a buon mercato e senza cervello.
Politos sono lì per aiutare il popolo
per non aderire alla banka-gangsta-gang.
politos devono cambiare il gioco finanziario
rimediare cosa è andato storto per un lieto fine.
Gente svegliatevi! Gente alzatevi!
La gente sa quello che la gente ha bisogno!
La gente può liberare la gente!
La gente, si sa, la gente siamo noi!
