Thanks for the honest question.

So again, back to the original question: What are you trying to accomplish with all the posts?

I’m discussing the news and sharing information on a popular political movement. At first people told me that Occupy was just spiffy and my posts didn’t accurately represent the reality of the movement. As evidence piled up they accused me of obsessing. The complained every time I posted about an occupy rape but suddenly yesterday rape became a popular topic again because a Tea Partier was arrested. I find the double standard interesting. I think it would be better if we all opposed political violence and rape regardless of the politics of perpetrators.
McCain’s state about the protesters was vile and indefensible, however the threats to kill police and video of assaults on officers is a much more serious issue in my opinion.
