Coherent, unified message still eluding Occupy OKC

OKLAHOMA CITY – Observing the 300-or-so Occupy OKC activists who took over Kerr Park on Monday evening, it was clear that there was a pall of frustration amongst the people, the “99 percent,” as they like to remind everyone.

But lashing out at Wall Street and Corporate America via the holding of signs and the chanting of slogans in the heart of Oklahoma City’s financial nerve center seemed to be going nowhere, at least on this second day of the occupation of Kerr Park.

But you have to give them credit for their savvy behavior with social media – the web, Twitter and Facebook, among others. And while this reporter was using an Internet connection on an iPhone in the park, a WiFi link for “OccupyOKC” popped up. Boy, that was fast!

In the couple of hours or so that Red Dirt Report spent at Kerr Park over the past two days, there was no overt militancy among the group. But the mass-produced, hand-made signs – obviously made by the same person and seen at other Occupy events in other cities – included “When Injustice Becomes Law, Resistance Becomes Duty” among others.Injustice is rampant, they say. But when it comes to resistance, the occupiers appeared to be well-behaved, even docile.

  1. A domestic security force larger and more funded then the United States Army! It’s here folks and it’s called Occupy. These folks are super bad news bears, total controlled opposition but only for a minute, now they’re training to be this force Barack Obama spoke of. Yeah, as long as we can bomb and kill countries to keep the current world reserve currency propped up we’ll be able to handle this but once they pull the cord on that, the chess board is set. You think foreign troops is bad news, imagine your neighbor all zombied out!

  2. THE AUTUMN LEAVES

    The falling leaves drift by the window
    The autumn leaves of red and gold
    I see your lips, the summer kisses
    The sun-burned hands I used to hold.

    Since you went away the days grow long
    and soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
    But, I miss you most of all my darling
    The autumn leaves start to fall.

    If don’t put our acts together we will hang seperate as AJ wont to say. We must unite now
    with all the cohesiveness we could muster to fight this NWO menace. There is no second
    chance, our annihilation is near. Its either them or us who lives. We must woo lady LIBERTY AND MISS FREEDOM WITH ALL OUR HEARTS WITH ALL OUR SOUL AND MIND. IF SHE’S GONE, SHE’S A GONER. NOTHING OF OUR MISSING,LONGING AND CUSSING CAN WIN HER BACK.

  3. All focus on ending the Fed and not just the Federal Reserve Fed. End the whole Fed.

    Why are business leaving the U.S.? What is it that they know and are scared of while moving production out of this country and continent. This is what we should demand being looked into. Stop the redirect and know what the hell we are sitting on. They are BUSTED!!!

  4. To all of you that speak ill about Oklahoma, remember every state has stupid people. I’m sure that you love your sports team and whatever sub-culture you are used to. It’s human nature to accept tribalism.

    • I like Oklahoma – I just don’t like yalls girly beer. Might as well just drink water.

  5. Truely, freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose ,serfdom USA. ,Jesus is Lord ,nibirupedia.com

  6. I still think that making people aware of the Fed, the left/right paradigm and false flag attacks is the beginning to a foundation needed to understand the rest of the NWO superstructure. This really is an unlearning of very entrenched false values, coated in lies, and drummed into us from birth.

    Until someone has those basic skills and verbal agility to explain them to others, many will remain in the cave, shouting at shadows, thinking they are real.

  7. From the article: ““The movement is fundamentally statist at heart,” noted Adam Kokesh today on The Alex Jones Show, adding, “It’s a rage that is coming from a resentment of success.”

    I’m not so sure that ‘success’ is what people are against, they are likely against a huge inequality of ‘rewards’. Just as lefties may not always make sense, do right wingers always make sense either? If money is the heart of the problem here, one solution is to look at what money is, and correct it’s rampant disease (temporary CREDIT). That correction would reward everyone, except the parasites of course.

    But ‘righties’ could stand to consider the reality that money is limited and numerical, so that if everyone deserves the right to be rich by working hard, then there should be enough money available for that to be a possibility. ‘Righties’ fall down supremely on this issue, because they often want the right to make as much money as possible for themselves, but don’t see the need for others to have that right as well. There is only so much money, when you take more for yourself, someone else is looking for it, even if it’s not there.

    The concept of creating enough currency to satisfy the demands of the market is more or less a government function, because if it is done morally and correctly, the money is created to be permanently circulating and there is no profit in this. A banker will only perform the function of creating part or all of the currency if he can charge for it on an ongoing basis. This ‘charge’ is the parasitic drain on the economy that ‘righties’ complain about constantly and blame on government overspending, and the vague concept of fiat currency.

    If Infowars is looking for a coherent message why not concentrate on the INTEREST being charged on the rental of our CREDIT currencies worldwide, and the alternative being interest free currencies that STAY IN CIRCULATION?

    • the sign that Luke is holding makes perfect sense to me, but it would probably require a lengthy explanation for most people. they’ve been trained to respect Hierarchy and to fear Anarchy. i understand Anarchy as self-government. and natural Hierarchy is respectable, but not the artificial NWO hierarchy. when J.P. Morgan is giving orders concerning scientific matters to Nicola Tesla, the world is in hell already.
      and this Kokesh statement about poor envy of the rich is an echo of something the British defense department recently said. the assumption behind it is that we live in a meritocracy, but the truth is we are under rule by birthright and secret society. few Americans envy the wealthy their trinkets and prestige, but to be prevented by these high mighty assholes from providing a decent life for themselves and their families is another matter.

      • Thanks Random, interesting points. I have taken what Alex says about the left / right paradigm to heart for a while now, and it helps in seeing your way through the money scam all around us. Alex’s point about being too close to the Elephant applies to money because we all use it, we all ‘know’ it too well, yet not at all.

        Sovereign means self rule I believe, so if we were all ‘sovereigns’ we would want our own money – not the King’s (or Bankster’s) money. We get so tied up by words and dogmatic principles that by trying to avoid a bad thing we end up advocating it by a series of flipped assumptions.

        This talking point about Collectivism, is I guess from Mr. Griffin’s take on things, which seemed valid to me five years ago when I studied it. The elite know that as a people we will seek to band together occasionally, for “in numbers there is strength” – an old axiom. And “divided we stand, united we fall”, another axiom. Occasionally banding together with like minded people is not a ‘bad’ thing, any more than it is bad to be a ‘collective’ Infowarrior, or a ‘collective’ Freedom Force International ‘change agent’.

        Some things should be collective, other things should be as free and individual as possible. We use a collective language – so we can freely exchange information. It would be kind of hard to communicate (or trade) if we all had different individual languages – and currencies. We also use common DVD formats, cars use common fuels, not 300 different types.

        The failure of Wall Street is the non helpfulness of ‘The Global Casino’. Most businesses on Main Street have little to do with Wall Street. Pension funds went to Wall Street hoping for good returns, but the Casino rarely pays out. If we had USURY FREE money, a currency that was not rented, there would not be the need to have money ‘make’ money. Money that increases or inflates (by DEBT) is part of the Credit / Interest sytem. A real return on ‘inverstment’ is good food, shelter, healthy people, arts, craftsmanship, innovation etc. Money, especially ‘credit money’ is just an IOU – to the banks, it has no long term value to a non-banker.

        So yes, Random, I would have to agree that Anarchy, or self rule, can mean Solidarity. Anarchy in this mindset means old time communities, where people chose how to lead themselves. In such a system people would choose to IGNORE the banksters and their deadly credit schemes, and make their own soverign (fiat) currency. You are talking of the mindest that was 1776. Credit Usury is not in the Constitution. Are we the Sovereigns, or just the pawns?

        Choose your currency people – bankster credit with crushing debt, or your own people backed currency that is debt free and stays in circulation. Your ‘left / right’ affiliation is irrelevant to this point.

  8. The only way to get a message around Oklahoma is to make the Oklahoma Sooners wear the protest signs. They don’t even know how to use cellphones, I asked one one time who gave me his because he couldn’t find an extension cord long enough to call anyone. You drive in the country there and you see all the cars parked on their front lawn, and you ask them what is wrong with it, they will tell you “It stopped working soon after I bought it”. Ask them to let you see the key and tell him/her you want to try and start it, you will only find that the gas tank is empty.

  9. I just moved to Las Vegas, Nevada from Oklahoma. I thought any State refers to their retirement as “Oh, I’m retard!” is not good company to keep. After living there for a couple of years I escaped, when the only U-Haul truck in Oklahoma showed up empty and two okies thought that it had a brain tumor.

    • I would have moved to Texas from Oklahoma, but, an okie fan said that would not be good, because Texas is coming to play Oklahoma.

      • I asked a gas station attendant in Oklahoma how much it would cost to fill my tank and he said nothing, we don’t charge anyone to feel it!

        • Oklahoma is the only State in the union where the cockroaches apply for food stamps and the raccoons take off their mask.

    • By birth I am a Texan. I ended up in Oklahoma by mistake.

      If you check demographic statistics, Oklahoma is last (or near last) in everything that a person would want their state to be first in and first (or near first) in everything that a person would want their state wants to be last in. I can’t understand why anyone would want to live here.

      I will be gone by this time next year. Nevada sounds nice to me. I will tell everyone in my new state that I am a Texan. I won’t even mention that I ever lived in Oklahoma.

      • before you go anywhere, pick up a copy of Franz Kakfa’s “Amerika”, then read the chapter titled The Theater Of Oklahoma.

      • The people in Oklahoma have always been nice to me. There’s good
        hunting and fishing there also. I like states that care about nature.

  10. Notice how there a NO videos of this event in Kerr Park in Oklahoma City on the internet.

    Here we have Alex Jones posting videos of Bobby Kessler of ‘Free Mind Report’ attending the End-the-Fed rally in Dallas and yet the ‘Red Dirt Report’ does NOT even submit a video to go along with its feigned live report. Why would Oklahoma City’s own ‘Free Mind Report’ travel to another state to take part in a demonstration when there is one right in their own town? Hmmm???

    This is just one of the MANY indicators that something is rotten in Oklahoma City. Where is Axxiom For Liberty?

    Is it that Oklahomans don’t care? Is it because Oklahomans are stupid? No wonder the Feds chose Oklahoma City for the largest terrorist act in history prior to 9/11. With the here thay can, quite literally, get away with murder.

  11. Maybe that’s because they don’t really want to fight, they want peace. Maybe that’s why they have to pay people to stir things up.

  12. I;ve learned something, protest doesn’t do anything but get media attention. Nothing ever changes from a protest. Everything still goes on. Now a hunger strike might be different.

    • or not

      • i dont think it will work for who is not behind them the hillbillies that are so lame are caught up in the bogus garbage from hell how i know is that my inlaws live in the south east part of the state of oklahoma they are buying the major media bs just like here in nm all braindead bs from the retards in the state

  13. EVERONE PLEASE CALL EVERONE THAT YOU CAN TO LET THEM KNOW THAT WE ARE TOGETHER
    CALL ANY STATE POLICE AND STATE DEP. CALL CALL
    ITS INPORTANT THAT WE LET THEM KNOW THAT WE ARE TOGETHER AND THIS WILL INUDATE THEM SO THEY CAN NOT RESPOND OR GO AFTERE ONE PERSON

    CALL CALL YOUR STATE OR POLICE DEP. AND LET THEM KNOW WE OUT NUMBER THEM

    ITS IMPORTANT TO LET THEM KNOW WE ARE A LARGE NUMBBER OF PEAPLE AND THEY CAN NOT WIN IF WE PUT THE FEAR IN THEM CALL CALL CALL

  14. Here’s a great 12 part documentary that exposes one of the most wicked drug cartel syndicates in U.S. history,the Clintonista crime family.It seems that these people had a very high percentage of manic depressive people around them,or they’re just a group who could give everyone from Al Capone,Murder Inc and La Costra Nostra to the Gambino crime family a run for their money….(remove the parentheses and spaces)

  15. When I attended and I was the ONLY one to film and post the 2007 End-the-Fed Rally in Oklahoma City and I was attacked by Federal Marshals for me just video recording, and a 100 people refused to help me when I ran into the front of the speaker platform to tell them what was occurring, the ‘Red Dirt Report’ made up a lie about me and published it before the sun went down that day.

    When I contacted the ‘Red Dirt Report’ about this by email and telephone, the ‘Red Dirt Report’ avoided my inquires and NEVER called me back to get the TRUE story.

    The ‘Red Dirt Report’ has NOT called me back to this day.

    Also, the ‘Red Dirt Report’ never retracted the lie(s) they published about me in 2007.

    So there is no telling whether this article is true or NOT. Personally, I wouldn’t believe a word the ‘Red Dirt Report’ says about anything.

  16. sheep ready to be educated. someone hand them a copy of liberty defined
