[GPSCC-chat] Fw: Why are people mad now?

[Spencer Graves]

       The Occupy San Jose group discussed that issue one evening this 
week after I was there passing out "No Credit Card Debt" fliers and 
inviting them to join our leafleting of Bank of America on Thursday 4-6 
PM:  They basically agreed that they would accept support from any 
individual or group but would not endorse any.  The group on Wall Street 
has doubtless had similar discussions, but I don't know that they decided.
