My prediction, for what it's worth:
This May Day, unlike what the article says and hopes, will NOT "revitalize" the Occupy Movement.
There is going to be, in several cities, too much uncontrollable violence -- which I am getting reports, in some cities has already started.

The IDIOTS!!!!!!!! How do they think randomly throwing things at targets, while shouting and cursing, will bring about any "revolution"??????
It will bring about the exact OPPOSITE of a Mass Movement -- which the Occupy Movement has {had} the POTENTIAL of being. People will be either FRIGHTENED, or DISGUSTED -- mostly BOTH -- and will AVOID the Occupy Movement. Which is, OF COURSE, EXACTLY WHAT THE CORPORATIONS SPONSORING THE AGENTS, HAVE IN MIND.

It is very significant, that LABOR, the UNIONS, are NOT getting behind the Occupy's "General Strike" message. A "General Strike" without the input of Organized Labor? A FARCE from the very get-go!

NOT TO WORRY, THO.
There is ANOTHER Occupy Movement, which is right now organizing under our noses and will, LIKE THE LEGENDARY IMMORTAL PHOENIX-BIRD, ARISE FROM THE ASHES OF THE "OLD" OCCUPY MOVEMENT.

This May-Day may very well put the NAIL IN THE COFFIN of the "old" Occupy.
This will be GOOD, as it will make room for a New, and Non-violent, "Family-friendly" Occupy.
Plans are underway, as we speak. Plans to contain and ISOLATE COMPLETELY, and AVOID, the pro-violence elements, are being put forward.
THEN, the Occupy Movement, or what replaces it, WILL have the Potential for forming the NECESSARY MASS MOVEMENT to bring about the Social Change so badly needed.
