Sorry for wasting people's time here. My grandfather told me that adherence to a philosophy of selfishness turns otherwise intelligent children of God into complete idiots. He also said it is a waste of time arguing with idiots.

Dear ShannonK - I'm gainfully employed. Own my own million $ a year company thank you. Own my own home free and clear. Don't do drugs. I stand by what I said. Regardless of "ownership", people have a right to a place to live. Take a VERY close look at your situation, and the "occupiers" camp... that IS your future. You are in DEEP denial. Your ignorance is truly astounding.

Rgl.....Pretty damn near lived in Eugene my entire life. And really what does a job have to do with anything? Where's yours?

Jay big difference between the homeless camp and my street and my neighbors.....we belong here. We arent guests who have been allowed to stay in a public place. We are in our homes that we own/rent. For those who rent guess what if they dont follow the landlord's rules they get kicked out of their home. OE couldnt follow even the simplest of rules and it eventually continued to escalate until someone almost died!!! They can say whatever they want but they contradict themselves all over the place with the victim of the assault. They say he had a heart attack...but they couldnt hear anything over the noise...never mind the mans face was beaten to hamburger, yeah that didnt influence anything, or the fact that he was choked, no that didnt influence anything. They accept no responsibility for anything yet they are willing to point fingers of blame at everyone.

shannon, I bet you dont even have a job..or a legal residence in Eugene so STFU

serenity....... The inspiration of the Bible depends upon the ignorance of the person who reads it.

Jaystrom...you are a moron. I belong at my house in my neighborhood. I own the MF'r...they and you do not belong..you do not own the park so you, Betty and George can stuff it up your rear end. What will these poor people do? they should go back to doing what little they were before they joined "Occupy" I was in favor of drive-bys at the camp, but I guess it wont be necessary. The cops will move your lazy rears out and if they need help, there are many of us who will help. Go crawl back under a rock and do your drugs.

One word...C U L T... The OE 'meetings' start at 2pm, (about the time most slackers pretend to 'look' for employment...while 'WE THE PEOPLE' pay for your food, donate your clothing and spend all this money that could go towards what we VOTED it to go towards.) It's ironic how one of their meetings/seminars is called 'Cop Watch'...WTF?? If you were not doing something 'Illegal' or 'Unsavory' why would you need to watch for cops???...I am GRATEFUL to have our police walking my beat! And it sounds like to me, if one of our Great Eugene Police were not there last night, one of you own would have died, while none of you we're administering CPR...To see policemen in my neighborhood, I am even MORE thank Thankful. Thank you EPD, Doing your best even without the Mayor's support! ( I personally, wish our police dept. safety, and a blessed Christmas with your families... <3) As for OE-This movement has lost it's VISION, (in fact a week into this 'protest') this is not a means of making a pre-post-apocalyptic MDK groovy kind of camp ppl...This is not MY Eugene-Kesey would be mortified...Move along...Your wraith here is complete.
