Final Stride for the Occupy Movement

Bemeda offered her thoughts on “The End of the Occupy Vancouver Movement” stating that the movement has significantly weakened loosing support and lacking focus. They have no power to go against the authorities as they were told to pack up and go home earlier this week. She suggests that  the movement may continue online or take place in another location.

I think it is about time that  government forced the Occupy Movement out of the Vancouver Art Gallery area. After two months,  the Occupy Movement has done nothing but attract  unwanted attention and wasted man power. Many protests have taken place at the Vancouver Art gallery and after several weeks, they would pack up and move on regardless of them being successful or not. The Occupy Vancouver Movement has failed to impose any specific demands or threats. The general public was frustrated with them telling them to go home and find a job. However some don’t have a home to go back to because a good portion of them came from the Downtown East side. As a result, there have been several overdoses and DUI’s at the Occupy site.

I am personally not a supporter of the global Occupy Movement simply because of their lack of coordination and action leading to nothing being done. The movement haven’t occupied anything other than the area they are protesting in. Vancouver should be the city that role models in the Movement reaching its final stride.
