[QUOTE="pdudgeon, post: 59038695, member: 120014"] why is it getting so violent? because what started as questioning the ambiguous corporate rights of various companies got twisted back on the protesters. and it became instead a question of personal rights and personal territory, and who had the most might. nothing new, of course. this has been happening for centuries with every civilization. but the news networks would like us to believe that today's protest is something that has 1. never happened before and that 2. we should know all about it, because that's what brings in viewers and sells air time. :P [/QUOTE]
