Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.

Find a fact and opinion from one article that supports a position that is opposite of your own.
FACT: Quote something from your site that is factual.
OPINION: "We want to see a general assembly in every backyard, on every street corner because we don't need Wall Street and we don't need politicians to build a better society."
Works Cited: Jones, Bobby. "Protestors Upsetting Local Residents." The New York Times 24 October 2011: A3. Print.
My Opinion: Provide a thoughtful, original comment about the situation in lower Manhattan.

Fact: “Since the protests began in September, the city’s 311 system has logged 345 complaints against demonstrators — 65 of which were noise complaint.”
Opinion: “This isn’t an occupation of Wall Street; it’s an occupation of a growing, vibrant residential neighborhood in lower Manhattan.” Bloomberg said.
Works Cited: Lemire, Jonathan. “Bloomberg strikes tougher tone on Occupy Wall Street.” nydailynews.com. New York Daily News, 2 November 2011. WEB. 4 November 2011.
My Opinion: In my opinion, I think what they are doing takes a lot out courage and energy but unfortunately it does affect others in the surrounding area. These protesters are hurting small businesses and families which is not fair. They are doing it for a great cause but maybe they should try and bring their message in a different way or reduce their time protesting to let their voice be heard.
