Occupy Ratcheting Up

In response to coordinated attacks on the occupations and attacks on workers across the nation:

[...]

Already, Occupy Los Angeles has passed a resolution to carry out a port action on the Port Of Los Angeles on December 12th, to shut down SSA terminals, which are owned by Goldman Sachs.

Occupy Oakland expands this call to the entire West Coast, and calls for continuing solidarity with the Longshoremen in Longview Washington in their ongoing struggle against the EGT.

[...]

In the event of police repression of any of the mobilizations, shutdown actions may be extended to multiple days.

  Occupy Wall Street

Now they will be labeled terrorists. They will be given no quarter by the authorities. And few will defend them. This will be bloody.

There comes a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part, you can't even passively take part, and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, the people who own it, that unless you're free the machine will be prevented from working at all.
