A three-hundredth of the nation in one place? That seems a little....impossible.

This G+ page just popped up.  Occupy Congress

Don't know who is really behind it or if they have any reason to expect those numbers.

Occupy Congress now getting attention on Reddit.

Whoever is promoting this is doing it right.  Many of the comments are promising to be there.

It looks like Occupy is hoping to organize 1,000,000 people in D.C. on Jan 17th

Sweet.  I'll be in the middle of break and within driving distance of DC.  Occupation Ho!

If you are going, bring some goggles. How many people need to have pepper spray in their eyes before someone thinks to equip some goggles?

Pepper spray can effect your bare skin, but it effects your eyes more, so the goggles probably are a good idea.

Then again, you could just show up with a fiberglass shield of your own if you want to be protected.

Yeah, that'll work too. You can hit the lawyer with the baseball bat or as a shotgun shell aiming at police, but I say baseball bat and shotgun because I'm not putting up with those fuckers spraying pepper spray onto, especially after a recent incident I saw on the news.

Don't go advocating criminal violence. Partly because that's exactly the wrong kind of argument to be making, and partly because Toady doesn't tolerate advocating criminal acts on the forum.
