This is what Business Insider thinks the protesters should be angry about. In reality, they're just angry.

This piece may actually provide them some much needed focus, regardless of how erroneous it is. (They're not detailed charts and graphs - they're super high-level...)

These people will be in Vancouver tomorrow. Here is what was issued by the VPD:

Quote:
On Saturday, October 15th, the growing Occupy Wall Street protest movement will hold a rally in downtown Vancouver. We cannot predict how long the rally will last or exactly how many people will attend, but at this time it would be safe to anticipate a large gathering of participants.

This movement is non-violent and is not known to encourage property damage, but the VPD advises that you prepare for any eventuality. The VPD is taking appropriate precautions and preparing to ensure a safe protest for everyone involved.

If someone occupies your business in protest or if at any time you are concerned about the safety of your staff or premises, call 9-1-1 and police will respond as quickly as possible.
There is no way this can go wrong, right?

I'm sure they aren't real corporation haters anyways. They probably just like to riot.

Atta boy for sure! Finally these worthless hipster protesters are getting a small taste of what a real protester experiences. I'm a tad bummed there isn't more pepper spray, billy clubs and Belgian Malinois maulings.

Do you know the circumstances why she got punched? Honestly?

Do you know if she laid hands on the police officer?

I don't know?

Or are you just willing to jump to conclusions based on Police are bad?

Hahahaha, really? Are you saying that because we don't know the circumstances it may have been ok that the police officer punched someone in the face in response? Haha, neat. Thanks for sharing!

If she touches a cop, absolutely he can use force.
