Anytime you go up against the establishment, aren't you labeled as a criminal, or a bum, lazy, unamerican, or a trouble maker?
Vietnam protesters, civil rights protesters, Iraq war protesters, they were all considered criminals or at the very least, unpatriotic and un-American. Now history has shown those protesters were right all along.
Have there been any incidents of huge protests being proven wrong by history? Not just America, but around the world.
I'm not saying the OWS movement is right, but generally speaking, long drawn out protests end up being proven right by history. The people who are against the protests end up being on the wrong side of history.
Once again, I'm not saying the OWS movement is right or wrong, but based on statistics, the longer it goes, the more chance of them being proven right by history.
