Not one of the 99. Go Occupy Something else.

This Occupy Wall Street or whatever is getting old. I just watched a 8 min video (link at the bottom) of kids getting Pepper sprayed by a cop while their fellow cop friends, holding cheap paintball guns, stand surrounded by UCLA-Davis students. You don't even have to look hard to see almost everyone on campus has an iPad, MacBook, smart phone, laptop, North Face Jacket, and other name-brand bags, clothes and technology.
If they really cared about making something work on favor of themselves, they could get a job, pay for school, pay for rent, eat in and not go out. It's not that hard to figure out that this is all happening because our society has become selfish and needing to be carried to every new feature that is out on our world, whether it be technology, school, clothes and even where we choose to live. (For example, I live at home and have 2 jobs of which I pay everything on a daily basis, which is close to nothing).
Yes, I have the new iPhone 4S, but I worked hard, managed my money, and paid for it myself, without any complaint that our government had anything to do with it.
Yes, I agree, our government has screwed us over on many ways, but it does have a lot to do with they way we live too. Our government along with the "head honchos" of companies and businesses were not all born with Silver Spoons in their mouths; some were average students, just barely making it by. What really needs to be done is some sort of example out on the people supposedly protesting for fairness or whatever they have been doing on Wall Street an in places such as California's universities, along with my own here at U of M.
Greatness and success is not handed to us, it is done by hard work and dedication.







^^^The cops don't want to hurt you. In pictures and a blog of a friend, who brought his fake Press badge and a Cannon Professional Camera on Wall Street, some cops commented by saying, "I'm gonna start swinging," with a smile on their faces.
Instead of standing outside, looking like an idiot, GO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!

NYC From Above









[SKATE]







I'm completely fascinated by this skater. as a fellow skater myself, I have seen so many great borders that all have different styles, and from seeing Kilian, I can sense some of the freestyle moves of Ty Page, Russ Howell, Bruce Logan, and some of the infamous moves of the Z-Boy, Jay Adams.
