Dave Johnson, Campaign for America's Future: 'In a country with a true democratic culture the local governments would be serving these people and honoring their right to dissent and protest. They would instinctively be showing up at protests like this and offering to help with any sanitation problems, etc, setting up public toilets, and other services. They would even be offering tents. If there are security problems in the occupy camps a city would be posting police in the encampment to help the people there, with a clear mission to serve them. They certainly would not be seeing them as the enemy, and attacking them.'

Unequal Justice: Banker Arrests, 0; Protester Arrests, 2,511

Bruce Judson, New Deal 2.0: 'The message to people and entities, large and small, is that they cannot rely on a blind justice system to protect them from unscrupulous transactions. The idea of fair dealing - which is at the heart of our economy - is breaking down. This implicit message also erodes the underpinnings of a vibrant capitalist economy. The rich and powerful can violate the law and will receive a slap on the wrist. As a result, the rights of the less powerful entities, which were violated by these elites, will not be protected by our justice system. The concept of fair dealing collapses.'

A 51st State for Armed Robotic Drones

Dave Swanson, War Is a Crime: 'Under this plan, 7 million acres (or 11,000 square miles) of land in the southeast corner of Colorado, and 60 million acres of air space (or 94,000 square miles) over Colorado and New Mexico would be given over to special forces testing and training in the use of remote-controlled flying murder machines. The U.S. public, just like the public of any foreign nation where new U.S. bases are being planned, was told nothing.'
