Hopefully the port blockade attempt didn't cause too much of a disruption. The "Occupy" people are not helping their cause with this one IMHO.
Well, sir, they have to buy the paint and stencils from somewhere, unless they were donated, or unless they borrowed money from mom and dad. The point is that someone somewhere actually produced something and worked to do it. Wall Street and Maceys are still operating business as usual. I doubt this will have any prolonged effect on commerce.

EDIT: Where it will have a prolonged effect is in the media. Now reporters and journalists can fill media time and print with these easy to report grand stand events and give less time / space to more worthy events. Also serves to take the eye off of those more worthy events; smoke and mirrors.
