[FONT="]In the beginning the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) protests were about bringing attention to the out of control banking and investment industry. What started out on Wall Street has spread to Main Street in cities across the country. As the protest has grown and spread, so too has the number of groups that have joined the protest and their varying agendas. The main stream media focuses most of their attention on a few select groups of protesters. These are the same protesters that always show up, no matter what the cause.
FLOWS: Far Leftists Occupy Wall Street.
GLOWS: Gay Libs Occupy Wall Street.
SOWS: Students Occupy Wall Street.
VOWS: Vegans Occupy Wall Street.
STWOWS: Save The Whales Occupy Wall Street.
Little media attention is given to other groups that have joined the OWS movement. At first glance some of these groups would appear to be at odds with each other, but all seem to embrace the larger, more general theme that this country has some serious problems that need to be addressed. Some of these lesser known factions of the OWS protest:
CROWS: Christian Rightwingers Occupy Wall Street. This group can be identified by their "Pat Robertson For President" and "Let He Who Is Without Sin Cast The First Ballot" placards.
SLOWS: Simbionese Libs Occupy Wall Street. This group is led by Patty Hearst and includes some of her old friends. Well mostly it's just Patty and old Walrus Face.
HOWS: Hipsters Occupy Wall Street. The Hipsters appeared on the scene moments after the first OWS protester set up shop. Once the movement became popular and over run with dickheads wearing funny sweaters and large framed glasses, the Hipsters left for greener pastures and cutting edge restaurants. Some Hipsters have remained in hopes the protest grows violent and buildings get burned. Fire gutted buildings can be turned into low rent apartments, um, I mean flats, man. Wall Street could become the new SoHo or Greenwich Village.
Q. How did the Hipster's collection of re-issue, new vinyl Charlie Parker LP's melt?
A: He moved into the Goldman Sachs building before it was cool.
WOWS: Women Occupy Wall Street. Often lumped in with "minorities" even though women are a majority this group aims to be heard.
BLOWS: Bi-Linguals Occupy Wall Street. This group has it's origins in French speaking Quebec and now includes the Ebonics and Esparento movement.
CHOWS: California Homeless Occupy Wall Street. All the way from the west coast to the northeast via boxcar. Just in time for winter. What would a protest be without homeless people. Especially homeless people from the bankrupt state of California.
DOWS: Dualincomenokids Occupy Wall Street. These DINKS mostly occupy the buildings of Wall Street.
MEOWS: Myopic Environmentalists Occupy Wall Street. This group can't seem to see the forest for the trees. Maybe they should move over to Central Park.
COWS: Capitalists Occupy Wall Street. These are the indigenous people of Wall Street. They built Wall Street. Why are these other groups trying to steal their land? Sure it starts out innocently enough. A few white dudes and a couple of tents, but it never ends with just that. My advice to the COWS, don't take any freakin' hippie beads in exchange for real estate.
