Psalm 123

Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us,
for we have had more than enough of contempt.
Our soul has had more than its fill
of the scorn of those who are at ease,
of the contempt of the proud.

The Occupy Movement still seems to me more sentiment than argument.

But those who violently oppose the movement are prompting my sympathy with it.

When Scott Olsen was injured in Oakland, when the UC-Davis students and Dorli Ramey, age 84, (above) were pepper sprayed...

The contempt, scorn, and violence directed at the protesters is evidence for the validity of their concern.

Have mercy on us.
