Winter is coming to New York, NY, and Washington, DC. Rainy today. Leaves turning. Getting cold. Snow in December, maybe November. Frost in the morning in October, for sure, maybe ice. Not much fun for urban youth to be outside all night on hard city streets and sidewalks covered with frost and ice, and then blizzards, with, at best, a sleeping bag. They will go home. Maybe come back in the spring. LA, who knows? Not cold but not Wall Street, either. Back in the 60's (I was there), the protesters calling for violence were mostly police undercover, trying to incite the gullible into getting arrested. I think that what looks like dangerous transgression in Chinese culture is just acting out, letting off steam, in US culture, to be tolerated. A way of letting people know what they think. No tanks are going to roll, and no bourgeoisie will be epatered. I have read, and suspect, that US and world is slipping into another recession. You may see your blood on the US streets yet, but not this year.

Would be smart for powers that be to infiltrate with some good rabble rousers.. best way to defeat it and justify heavy handed response if it turns into a Watts 65 or Detroit 67.. key for the people is if they can muster civil rights style marches of the 60s.. otherwise they will lose...

With a little bit of "luck", we'll have a lot less cretins and similar when its all over years from now. No question on bloodshed and violence, not happy at all about it but as a friend said years ago; "It has to play out". With a bit more luck, many of the extreme violence freaks and extreme haters will kill each other off too. "Funny" how I'm reminded of the Communist Manifesto more & more these daze: Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax. Abolition of all rights of inheritance. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels. Centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan. Equal liability of all to work. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of all the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labour in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production. <ng>
