usually when u call something illegal u cite specific statutes

Sounds like you are arguing legality to me. But why don't you go ahead and explain to us what blockade means now, since you have yet to do so.

blockading simply means to block something

give this man an honorary degree in int'l law

Glad you agree.

change cannot be made within the existing system because it's harder to achieve than just sitting in a park and whoring attention. It takes planning, structure and most importantly... consensus...

OWS has no planning, structure or consensus.. (let alone mainstream support) therefore change cannot be made within normal routes.

Clearly they can be pepper sprayed and get some sympathy attention however playing the victim card for all it's worth.

I guess throwing a bunch of rich americans throwing someone else's tea cargo into the water and destroying it over two hundred years ago were terrorists too...

oh wait, they are our founding fathers.

#1 As far as the "how" - On the 2nd and 3rd, when we shut down the Port of Oakland for 24 hours, we did it by building a barricade with stolen chain link fences, stolen dumpsters turned on their sides, pallets, and people. This was accomplished at thoroughfare intersections distal to the border of the port. The march actually went in, but our barricades were not inside the border of the port.

#2 This is all very much illegal. It's called "civil disobedience." Jesus (basically) invented it, and people like Thomas Jefferson, Henry D. Thoreau, the BOSTON Tea Party (1773), and Mohandas Ghandi refined it before Gene Sharp got ahold of it and gave us the keys to our own salvation with his lectures - but more importantly his book From Dictatorship To Democracy. You might want to look it up.
