    "A gathering of farmers, community gardeners, food workers and activists for dialogue, solidarity and solutions to corporate control of our food system."

    Tom, the nazi's never gave up, they just gave up on Germany. Until people understand we are still fighting the nazis', nothing will change.

    These guys marched down my block, but I only caught the tail end of it because I was too busy being productive at the time.

    What's the idea here, that we should return to an agrarian society or something? I thought they were just the regular Wall Street people.

    @nygrump. I keep reading your comment and I can't tell
    if your agreeing with me or lecturing me. You do get that my
    comment was in support of protest, right?
