#US Veterans who demonstrated against #NATO and returned their medals to their NATO generals at #Chicago should be respected and followed by all US army servicemen and their counterparts.

Really and truely. This is a fucking absurd charge. Terrorism charges for Protesters, and the US government sinks lower and lower.
One of the several banners dropped today in Austin, TX in solidarity with those arrested in Chicago.
Photo’s from the NATO protest. This is what a police state looks like
All the people defending the police state, ask yourself why they are there. To protect the property and closed door meetings of the elite and corporate forces that warmonger around the world. They joined the police force and left the working class, they are now part of a privileged class of people that enforce the law and protect the status quo. The only violence I see is that which is deemed legitimate by the state: police repression.
Why are we there? Because we want a better world, we want to stop invading countries and killing people. We want to stop private contractors and mercenaries from raping and pillaging.
You want to know why we’re frustrated? Because protest in this country isn’t valued. The representatives don’t care what we have to say. The capitalists don’t care how many unemployed, under-remployed, exploited and homeless there are dying in the streets. The ‘representative’ government does not represent you!

The rich are different; they get richer
In 2010, according to a study published this month by University of California economist Emmanuel Saez, 93 percent of income growth went to the wealthiest 1 percent of American households, while everyone else divvied up the 7 percent that was left over. Put another way: The most fundamental characteristic of the U.S. economy today is the divide between the 1 percent and the 99 percent. It was not ever thus. In the recovery that followed the downturn of the early 1990s, the wealthiest 1 percent captured 45 percent of the nation’s income growth. In the recovery that followed the dot-com bust 10 years ago, Saez noted, 65 percent of the income growth went to the top 1 percent. This time around, it’s reached 93 percent — a level so high it shakes the foundations of the entire American project.
