To the editor: Re: "Occupy Vancouver declares itself autonomous," Nov. 4. Please investigate what real sacrifice these protesters are making. What have they given up for their cause? The obvious answer is nothing.

Re: "Occupy Vancouver declares itself autonomous," Nov. 4.

Please investigate what real sacrifice these protesters are making. What have they given up for their cause?

The obvious answer is nothing. Let them protest-but with no tents, just come and go each day as if they had a job or were actually responsible political activists.

The larger problem here is that this tent city is protesting against no one who can do anything about their discontent. It is similar to yelling at the raindrops and protesting for sunny days in November.
