OWS plans "General Strike" for May Day

After being off for a month due to pneumonia, one more day would hardly be much of a statement. Besides, I didn’t learn of this strike until I was already at work.

“Free Mumia” is not the sort of thing that should make that hard at all.

“themes of economic noncompliance”? Like stealing stuff?

Anyone else wish SmashTheState still posted here? He’d be good for a laugh in this thread.

To be fair, I think they mean not buying stuff. Unfortunately, the SF protest have already turned to vandalism.

Solidarity!

They left out bombing a bridge in Cleveland, didn’t they?

:wink:

Huh - I didn’t buy anything yesterday. Does that make me an Occupier? Shit!

:rolleyes: “Spare Mumia from execution” is a perfectly reasonable stance to take. “Free Mumia” is only possible if you deliberately ignore every last scrap of evidence, or if you are such a racist that you don’t really care if he’s guilty or not.

I’ve seen lots about the protests yesterday, but nothing about closing down bridges and tunnels in New York, or the ‘general strike’.
Anyone know how those things worked out?
