Wall Street Protest

I believe that the Wall street protest is very affective. Wall street is very popular and a lot of people see what goes on there. Also there a a lot of protesters so its hard to miss. They have been there for a couple days and that definatelly draws a lot of attention. The protest has been on the news and in the paper so a lot of people know about it. By a lot of people knowing then a lot of people will respond.

Yes, it is an effective form of freedom of speech in certain situations, but this situation requires broader means of protest. It only becomes effective when change is achieved.

In a way i agree with will. Being the popular place that it is attention is definitely being received. Hopefully enough attention can be see that more powerful figures can make a change and all the people can go back to their homes. I feel bad because the living conditions there aren't the best but the people are doing it for everyone else. Not only should people focus on wall street but also the sacrifices these people are making. Credit should be given at the end to all who stayed the entire time. Change can happen little by little.

I agree with you, the wallstreet protests are effective, They chose the street so that they could get more attention and be heard. and i think that they should be heard becuase they are putting a lot into these protest. some of them are sacrificing what they have.
