Occupy Wall Street

Assuming that I am Pro (for) The Wall Street movement... I would like to get some dictionary definitions down and state my reasoning as to why I am for it. I would also like to set boundaries as to where my limits of accepting it lie. Obviously as your argument will be based on the negatives or what you see as problematic, I will not conduct my self in showing what the negatives could possibly be. "Occupy Wall Street (OWS) is the name given to a protest movement that began on September 17, 2011, in Zuccotti Park, located in New York City's Wall Street financial district, receiving global attention and spawning the Occupy movement against social and economic inequality worldwide." Social inequality - "Social inequality refers to the ways in which socially-defined categories of persons (according to characteristics such as gender, age, "class" and ethnicity) are differentially positioned with regard to access to a variety of social "goods", such as the labour market and other sources of income, the education and healthcare systems, and forms of political representation and participation." Economic inequality - "Economic inequality refers to how economic metrics are distributed among individuals in a group, among groups in a population, or among countries." The occupy wall street movement begins with upholding equal rights for society and economic distribution. It should also end there. When high ups do not listen to the public, the public has no option than to go PUBLIC. When people are treated worse than others because of their gender, age, colour or location then we have a serious problem when in a country that upholds values of respect, honour, freedom, unity and peace. When the US gets a black president but black people are still treated the same, the only difference is black people in a suit are treated like white people, but any other black person is treated the same as they were. An increase in over the top responses to black crimes or cases where the police draw or even shoot before asking questions. We just recently had a case where a black male was running away from a police officer, the officer turned, drew his weapon and began unloading his clip into the gentlemens back. *UNDER NO LAW* is it legal to fire on someone who is currently no threat, whether the guy killed 100 people or was going for a run. At the point his back was turned, he was NO THREAT to the officer. This kind of oppressive response to black people is resulting in a stereotype that is not only being labelled to the black communities, but is being owned by the black communities. We can only grow in this world if we begin to accept equality, if we begin to accept people, if we begin to love, appreciate and help people. Kids are like sponges and take in information like there is no tomorrow. If the kid has a thug dad, then the kid will be a thug, simple. If the kid is told he is trash, a criminal and will always be trash and a criminal by people that are supposed to uphold the law, and he is treated like crap by them. He won't grow very much if he doesn't get some serious help from someone wise. You can't put bad things into a blender and expect to get a nutrient filled shake. You get out what you put in. This occupy wall street movement is one of the few things keeping the black community from going back to the days of being called 'boy'... This also applies to the Hispanic community and any other oppressed person/s. I am not subjecting the African American population to this, it is just the most recognised and easy area to talk about as it is so prominent in todays society. This is part 1 of my argument, I don't want it to be overly long. I am looking forward to seeing your arguments :)
