Some of these young kids that are protesting are so clueless. I'm talking the college-aged ones either in schoolwho have not yet gotten a degree, or the ones not even in college, who have no marketable skills, talent, motivation, or ability to achieve anything. They're no different from half the people who audition on American Idol expecting to be turned into massive stars overnight just because they think they can sing.
This youth entitlement today is infuriating. Everyone wants something for free without trying or being good at anything. No conviction, just a desire to be part of something with no real definition.

International Workers' Day is the commemoration of the 1886 Haymarket Massacre in Chicago.

Nothing to do with the occupy movement or being lazy.- that being said, we know occupiers as much as all other protest anti government groups join in.sea_sea

Alright its LOYALTY DAY !!!!!
"Right-wing governments have traditionally sought to repress the message behind International Workers' Day, with fascist governments in Portugal, Italy, Germany and Spain abolishing the workers' holiday, the official May 1st holiday in the US being Loyalty Day"

The protest is going by my building right now in Midtown, NYC. Drums and chanting and everything, police all in a fluster. Meh.

Cotton, PR might be so poor because if they are against capitalism and "the man" then promoting this using facebook/mobile phones/tv/radio is kind of hypocritical, no?
- cotton0
So why is the PR for this so poor? Is it just because I don't have a TV? I didn't hear about this until I turned on the radio on my way to my cubicle job. Seems several of you were also unaware about this.
Seems strange in a day and time where they have more ways to get the info out than any other time in history...
