YES, it has brought talk, and knowledge to the people all over the world. I would say that it is slowly bringing people to understand our fear is not over the oceans, cause they can't swim that far, but it is a checkpoint on our,[not the governments], highways. It is brutal beatings,shootings, kidnapping, and verbal threats of unarmed,elderly,handicapped , law abiding people, here and all over the world. You know the rest, or part of it. So I support Occupy. Chances are it stopped a lot of bloodshed. I am 64 years old and partially disabled. I would like to volunteer to explain the law to the cop in the white shirt, spraying the students on campus with pepper spray, [and he can bring the spray], why that was a bad idea. Ya'll get the rest. I'm extremely easy to find.

What knowledge? They protested what?

They hod no real defined goals, it was only after people started asking what are you protesting and what do you stand for did anyone come forward with any goals. The robin hood tax, where we tax financial transactions, now such a tax would not only hit the "rich" but anyone with a 401k. Now look at a lot of those protesting, they aren't hurting for cash, ipad, ipods, macs. Then look at the way they treated the business near the park, how they treated the homeless who came for food.

Now you talk about beating, shooting, etc, what about the crime in the occupy movement camps? The Zuccotti Park has was so overrun by sexual predators attacking women that organizers felt compelled to set up a female-only sleeping tent. The anarchists urged violence against the police. Drugs, assaults, murders, arson, or taking over a person's home and destroying it.

So the occupy movement didn't really accomplish anything in the end, who didn't know about inequality. Yes a few people complained and got some air time, but in the end, they caused millions of dollars in damage, they tried to suppress the reports of crime in the camps (don't report rapes to the police), they stole, destroyed property, murdered, raped, sold and used drugs and you support that?
