Woman dies at Occupy Vancouver site

So this "occupy" movement is nothing more than a drug fueled party....

It's given the city all the reson it needs to shut it down.

When I went down to Occupy Toronto and spoke to the protestors one of them made the point that the event would be remembered long after it was over. It's a valid point. Occupy Vancouver and etc will be long remembered. The event was a reminder we have problems. They can close the camps down now, they're unsanitary, fading and uncomfortable for the participants.

Um, not really. The overall movement might be remembered, like leftist anti-war protests or right wing Tea Party protests, but individual protests, and their goals, won't really be remembered. To be honest, if all they were there for is bringing attention to "we have problems"...then what's the point? Everybody knows there are problems.

A protest is a pretty small step. The leftist agenda is sobering because the facts have a Liberal (or leftist) bias. Myself I was rather encouraged by the young people I meet at Occupy Toronto because they had specific, legitimate ideas. I think they did well as protests go.

In which case, why not sit back and just let them all overdose? Problem solved.

Occupy has already been successful. The 1 percenters are very nervous that this is the beginning of people saying they've had enough, which it is. Keep going down the road of socializing losses while concentrating profits in the 1 percent and there'll be more of this shit. When you have Mark Carney saying they have a point, you know that they, well, have a point.

Terrified I'm sure. Sit back and watch the Occupy movements go from a melange of personal pet peeves to a hot spot for drug use, violence, and illegal activity; then shut down.

Yep. The 1% must be shaking in their boots.

Probably hours since the last Overdose in the City. Yup, the Camp is to blame!!!

Do you have a window in the cardboard box you live in?

Nobody gives a shit....hell, the majority of the 99% don't care.

They want to change the world in their own way but they can't even survive themselves. Great society they are advocating....
