Journal PopeRatzo's Journal: "No press today for security reasons." 3
Guardian photo-journalist Adam Gabbatt was told "No press today for security reasons" for the Occupy Movement's November 17 Day of Action.
Think about that for just a few seconds. News helicopters are being told to stay out of the Wall Street area according to WNBC radio. What is it we're not supposed to see?

Bill of rights (Score:2)
In reality, the Bill of Rights ceased to exist shortly after 9/11. However I don't remember any Declaration of War from congress. 10 years later (endless, undeclared, off budget wars), now the government doesn't even "pretend" the Bill of Rights or the Constitution even exist anymore. There is no Freedom of the Press (all "owned"). There is No Free Speech. With all the unconstitutional surveillance of all Americans telephone, email and internet there is no longer any protection from unreasonable search

I heard a discussion about that the other day and now I'm not sure.
The last thing you want when a system is corrupt is to let the corrupt decide on a whole new system.
Instead, a constitutional amendment that does at least two things: establish that corporations are not people and that money is not speech.
Either that, or change the "persons" in the 14th amendment to "natural persons".
The problem is, this has to be done
