I want to do whatever I can, even from far away.

What Occupy Portland did for them all night long.

9. If they don't get out of the street in 3-4 hours
then their public support will plummet from 70% to 20% overnight. If they are planning on leaving then I support their message. If they are there to confront police and impede traffic then I do not.

11. IMHO part of the beauty of the OWS movement is the tenacity of protestors to stay put.
I am unaware of any OWS purpose to confront police and impede traffic. How did you arrive at the plummet numbers?

12. Because your average Democratic voter is not a fan of
someone impeding traffic if they want to get somewhere. You can attempt to justify it all you want but impeding traffic will not earn OWS any more support.

15. Arguing with yourself must be fun.
I don't support violence toward protesters. I absolutely support the police arresting protesters if they are impeding traffic without a permit.

16. You'd think someone who did three tours as a Seal and clerked at the Supreme Court
would understand a simple concept like "civil disobedience".
