Global Noise protests

from today's Guardian, UK

Today am feeling sad looking at the photos of the protesters in Spain and Mexico and Venice, bashing pots and pans against the austerity measures. So clearly and patently unjust and disgusting, that bankers and corporations destroy the economy, not to mention the environment, and the ordinary public have to pick up the bill for getting it back on track, if that is actually what the austerity measures are about at all, seems just as likely that they’re just a means of further squashing down the populace, removing more basic safeguards and increasingly destroying hope and the willpower to stand up for ourselves.

Bang a pot for freedom and justice, it’s heartbreaking, we’re so fragile and easily crushed, and they’re so brutal.
