The “1 Percenters” Taunt Occupy Chicago Protesters | rebelpundit.
Proving that while they may be a minority, they won’t be shut up or intimidated by the Occupy Chicago protesters, as-yet unidentified denizens of the Chicago Board of Trade building posted signs the spelled out “WE ARE THE 1%” in their windows above the street:
As reported by Jake Malooley in Time Out Chicago, these signs appeared to ridicule the Occupy Chicago protesters on the streets below:
“Four pieces of white paper, pasted on as many windows of the historic 141 West Jackson Boulevard building, declared in dark marker, WE ARE THE 1%. The taunt, it seems, was directed at Occupy Chicago protesters who’ve been demonstrating under the banner of “We are the 99 percent,” in solidarity with New York’s Occupy Wall Street movement. Fluctuating numbers of protesters have been sitting in for nearly two weeks in front of the Federal Reserve Bank at 231 South LaSalle Street, in the shadow of the CBOT.”
RebelPundit Media is gladdened to see that while they may be the minority, the 1% is showing some signs of fighting back–and as seems so appropriate in this particular case, humor is the best weapon. Look for more on-the-scenes reporting of Occupy Chicago in the coming days. Till then, we’re laughing with you, 1 percenters.
