Chris Ogle just posted a comment for Occupy Irvine.<br>
<br>
&quot;Orange County is one thing, but in LA you have to be a little<br>
bit stealthy with your political ideology. It&#39;s all about peace-<br>
and-lovism (with emphasis on -ism) up there. For maximum impact<br>
you have to ingratiate yourselves to the PTB in order to have<br>
your agenda put before the &quot;General Assembly&quot;. It is a social<br>
experiment, where they are ostensibly practicing &quot;Direct<br>
Democracy&quot; as in Athens Greece. In the end, voices which are<br>
underrepresented are oppressed by &quot;mob rule.&quot;&quot;<br>
