    Why do you post these? They mean nothing. Do you honestly think the 3 or 4 people this guy cherry picked for his youtube video represent the whole movement?

    Protesters arrested for peaceably demonstrating, including Vietnam vets. For shame.

    No. He doesn't actually think it is representative of the movement. But he wants you to think that. That's the conservative shuffle. He knows better, he just paints in broad strokes because its easy, and he knows that the careless minds who he can influence won't see further than their screen. It's bait and switch. It's the conservative go-to.

    Why bother responding to basso, he's offered about zero concrete points, and is clearly not even intent on discussing the issues. Instead, he tries to huff and puff, and make this some sort of reality show. Who really actually cares about what he has to offer in this topic?

    Didn't you participate in a law suit against the NYC school system to provide more services to special needs students? What do you think pays for those services? Fairy dust?

    Access to Education is pretty easy when everything is paid for by tax payers. Interesting that those who have the 'most' access to education are also those countries that have the highest tax rates:

    Agree, for partisan shills who want to silence peaceful protests, and for the Mayor of Boston.

    Exactly -- I've never read a quote quite like in my decades as an American, born and raised. **** the mayor of Boston. We should all go to Boston and protest.

    The good ole US of A. Raise hell at the airport cuz they touch your junk and you go to jail. Raise hell in public over the stealth theivery of the public treasury and you go to jail.
