    Grassroots movement taking hold...



    It started with a Facebook page that local musician Bryan Hamilton, 28, created Sept. 28 for a few friends who wanted to join Occupy Austin. Then it snowballed.

    “We thought, ‘Why should people have to go to Austin? We have problems here in San Antonio,'” he said.

    Declaration of the Occupation of New York City” (San Antonio)

    As we gather together in solidarity to express a feeling of mass injustice, we must not lose sight of what brought us together. We write so that all people who feel wronge(d by the corporate forces of the world can know that we are your allies.

    As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of the human race requires the cooperation of its members; that our system must protect our rights, and upon corruption of that system, it is up to the individuals to protect their own rights, and those of their neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power. We come to you at a time when corporations, which place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We have peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known.

    They have taken our houses through an illegal foreclosure process, despite not having the original mortgage.

    They have taken bailouts from taxpayers with impunity, and continue to give Executives exorbitant bonuses.

    They have perpetuated inequality and discrimination in the workplace based on age, the color of one’s skin, sex, gender iden y and sexual orientation.

    They have poisoned the food supply through negligence, and undermined the farming system through monopolization.

    They have profited off of the torture, confinement, and cruel treatment of countless nonhuman animals, and actively hide these practices.

    They have continuously sought to strip employees of the right to negotiate for better pay and safer working conditions.

    They have held students hostage with tens of thousands of dollars of debt on education, which is itself a human right.

    They have consistently outsourced labor and used that outsourcing as leverage to cut workers’ healthcare and pay.

    They have influenced the courts to achieve the same rights as people, with none of the culpability or responsibility.

    They have spent millions of dollars on legal teams that look for ways to get them out of contracts in regards to health insurance.

    They have sold our privacy as a commodity.

    They have used the military and police force to prevent freedom of the press.

    They have deliberately declined to recall faulty products endangering lives in pursuit of profit.

    They determine economic policy, despite the catastrophic failures their policies have produced and continue to produce.

    They have donated large sums of money to politicians supposed to be regulating them.

    They continue to block alternate forms of energy to keep us dependent on oil.

    They continue to block generic forms of medicine that could save people’s lives in order to protect investments that have already turned a substantive profit.

    They have purposely covered up oil spills, accidents, faulty bookkeeping, and inactive ingredients in pursuit of profit.

    They purposefully keep people misinformed and fearful through their control of the media.

    They have accepted private contracts to murder prisoners even when presented with serious doubts about their guilt.

    They have perpetuated colonialism at home and abroad.

    They have participated in the torture and murder of innocent civilians overseas.

    They continue to create weapons of mass destruction in order to receive government contracts.*

    To the people of the world,

    We, the New York City General Assembly occupying Wall Street in Liberty Square, urge you to assert your power.

    Exercise your right to peaceably assemble; occupy public space; create a process to address the problems we face, and generate solutions accessible to everyone.

    To all communities that take action and form groups in the spirit of direct democracy, we offer support, do entation, and all of the resources at our disposal.

    Join us and make your voices heard!

    *These grievances are not all-inclusive.

    I never expected conservative and/or apolitical SA to mount much of a Occupy SA campaign.

    With SA/Bexar floating in federal/taxpayer $$$, they've always been somewhat isolated from the general economy. Doesn't stop the local Repugs from hating the feds (while living off Fed income).

    btw, TX actually has INTRUSIVE-RESTRICTIVE-GOVT regulations!!! covering mortgages that protected TX from the worst of the sub-prime crimes.

    It's all about the very diverse ways the financial sector has ed people over, while escaping all blame, any effective penalties or regulation of themselves.

    Simply "private gain, taxpayer pain"

    You people are lying and slandering when you say you don't know, can't imagine, the many diverse complaints "nut case" dissenters have. iow, you are part of the problem, while proposing no solutions.

    These dissenters are targeting the real culprits, while d tea baggers target in complete error.

    it's no secret that the fed gave bailout money to the big megabanks who turned around and got caught financing the drug cartels. we don't need an all powerful PRIVATE branch of government who can print money out of thin our, isn't audited, and makes secret loans under the table to foreign banks.

    END THE FED!!!

    Yeah, if you've read enough of my posts you know full well how I feel about most of Jone's 'investigations', especially concerning 9/11, but Jones is dead on with the Fed......why can't we just print our own money? Why do we have to go through this for-profit, quasi-private organization to borrow our own money?

    Can we wipe out the National debt by simply eliminating the Fed? ....that right there...

    If anyone knows anyone in the OccupySA movement it would be cool if you directed them to this forum and let their case be heard...

    ...because the M$M won't do it...
