After a general assembly meeting on March 6th, 2012 in which a
majority of those present attempted a vote of no confidence on the ruling body
of Occupy Colorado Springs, it was decided that without democracy that Occupy
Colorado Springs should be overthrown. The last efforts of that ruling body who
hijacked facebook pages and created an alternate
website to this one were to pass out form letters removing the ability to vote
by those who would vote against them, and even going so far as to attempt to
have 2 people arrested on false charges to prevent them from showing up. That
is not what democracy looks like, rather it is disenfranchisement, and those
who remain with the label "Occupy Colorado Springs" represent that
disenfranchisement. This page will now serve as a warning to others and to
redirect the good efforts of activists to the more positive groups that the
disenfranchised left for to put their efforts into causes not corrupted.
Here
is a sample of their disenfranchisement papers.
Here is video
of the hijackers being exposed on KOAA news on March 8th, 2012.
Here is video of when the
last attempt was made to vote out the hijackers from positions of power in the
movement in order to save it from their ideology and tactics. Let this be a
warning to any person who wants to be part of the movement to better our world.
If you would like to follow those who left the movement and found
more positive outlets for their efforts, we recommend the following:
Pikes
Peak Justice and Peace Commission
Colorado Springs Medical
Cannabis Council
The Colorado Springs
Activism Group
Freethinkers of Colorado
Springs
Pressure Point
Colorado Springs
There are plenty of groups out there that can use a
helping hand. Please put your efforts into productive places and try to stay
away from destructive and illegal activities.
