Chris Hedges says "this one could take them all down." I sure hope he's right

chris hedges...

What happens is in all of these movements ... the foot soldiers of the elite -- the blue uniformed police, the mechanisms of control -- finally don't want to impede the movement and at that point the power elite is left defenseless ... the only thing I can say having been in the middle of similar movements is that this one is real, and this one could take them all down ... I can guarantee you that huge segments of those blue uniformed police sympathize with everything that you're doing.

well worth watching... the best part is when hedges has to choke back his tears at the end... after being exposed to his tendency to rant - a tendency i tend to indulge in myself - it's heartwarming to see that side of his humanity...
