Protestors Against the Establishment or Members of the Fashion Avant Garde?

I know, Occupy Wall Street is supposed to be a serious movement; a liberating force for the oft-stated 99%.  In the midst of the May Day Rally at Union Square I had an epiphany of sorts: I do not espouse the political anarchy of attacking one segment of the population because they are in the highest pay grade.  Okay that’s not the epiphany.  I knew that well before I saw signs with the slogans “Off with their heads” and “I am not angry at the 1% I just want to eliminate them.”  The real revelation is that I am very much in awe and appreciation of the fashion statements expressed in the clothes and style of several of the participants.  My suggestion?  Ditch the politics and keep the style.
