[kictanet] Occupy NYC

Fri Nov 18 20:15:00 EAT 2011

You have stated that one of your driving reasons for joining the
occupy group in Ashville (sorry, first time to hear of the place)
is because you are affected by "US government's actions in
Somalia". What is it you would like for Somalia? Do you think you
will be able to change this US government through demos rather
than waiting for the elections next year? I also do not agree
with you about the way people are treated in the US vis-a-vis
Kenya. Hardly a generation ago police were setting dogs on
demonstrators in Birmingham, AL,  and other cities; people
fighting for civil rights. A short while ago Rodney King was
beaten to pulp and even now there are many instances of police
beatings. A few days ago I was in New York and saw on the TV a
police officer use a Taser gun on a motorist for driving 5 miles
above the speed limit.

  The banks and Wall Street are only able to exist in their
  current form because of the poor policies and government
  legislation. The government needs to change its laws in
  regards to what these institutions are allowed to do. It is a
  critical part of a democracy that the people speak for change
  when change is required.
  And it is a privilege to create change under the government of
  the president from Siaya. You see in America they may spray
  people with pepper gas, and maybe even rubber bullets (which
  still hurt), but they don't shoot us in the streets like they
  may in Kenya.

My lovely friends in Kenya,
I came back to the US to join Occupy in my hometown of Asheville,
NC to raise awareness of what the global economy does to Africa
and Kenya in particular and how the US government's actions in
Somalia are affecting us. Please see the attached infographics to
give you some clue as to why me, and the rest of Occupy want
change in America. It is our democratic right to change our
government when required. And right now, for the sake of the
world, it is required.
Blessings,
Crystal

Hi,

What started in Tunisia went across to Egypt, made a short stop
in Britain, made a few more stops has now taken a transatlantic
cable across to the USA.

You can follow the proceedings
on [4]http://www.livestream.com/occupynyc, there is
a suspicion from the demonstrators that mobile signal are
being jammed.  the WiFi signals will be next then finally the
sites streaming the footage.

Regards
