"You may not come in here. This is student's free space," says the cameraman, as a security guard pulls apart the flimsy barricade that the administration had chosen to leave in place for the past two days. As soon as the guard sets foot in the food court: "Excuse me, brutality here. You are on camera...Do not use brutality. You may not detain us, you are on camera!" This, as two security guard were moving away from him. "We deserve to be explained what is going on," he says to several bored-looking cops. Here's what's going on dude: you're not actually allowed to take over buildings. Believe it or not.
The part where the cameraman has to keep saying we need to "get consensus" on whether they should show their IDs is priceless. He spends almost the entire video trying to herd his "revolutionaries" together and then takes inventory of their IPods and Macbooks. I guess they didn't want The Man "confiscating" the "weapons of the revolution."
Then he says the highlight of the video. "They won't want these water bottles. They probably drink corporate water." That line had me laughing out loud. Here is more on the "revolutionaries" And a pic of their motley group showing off a MacBook Pro I think. Talk about a tool of the proletariat. You can read that both ways.
