JDPriestly's Journal

A rallying cry that puts Bloomberg's conduct in proper persepective.

Posted by JDPriestly in General Discussion

Zucotti Park is not Tianamen Square. No, indeed.

Ours is supposed to be a free country, not a Communist or Fascist dictatorship.

And, as Rumsfeld pointed out in April 2003, freedom can be "untidy."

OWS is very untidy, but that's freedom.

And freedom is not always hygienic or safe. It's freedom. It's risky. It's dirty. And it is free.
