UGH! #OccupyRochester
There is a VERY vocal Anti New World Order supporter attempting to garner support and organize under #OccupyRochester.

I went to their website and notice that they also support the American Taxpayer Party and Campaign for Liberty Today which support internet censorship, oppose the equality of marriage, pro-life, VEHEMENTLY anti-ACLU/NLG, need I continue...?

I guess my point is this: these events and groups are growing by leaps and bounds. Be wary of folks looking to undermine the effort you are putting into organizing.

1. Same thing here as well.
I went down to check it out yesterday and first thing I saw was a car with RON PAUL 2012 painted on the windows.

I posted my pictures here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x2038479

6. Don't remove it before you warn the other poor suckers.
Use your "like" to post effective warnings.

7. YES!
As a resident of the Rochester area, I'm glad the Occupy movement has finally arrived here!

9. It's in it's infancy...
I have not been able to make the first two organizing meetings due to project deadlines, however it is live and actions begin as early as tomorrow...

Join the group, almost 100 new members JUST TODAY! 500 total so far!

Just to be clear, I am just a participant and not affiliated with any OccupyRochester organizing...
