Obviously the Occupiers aren't rioting.

I mean, there's no visible human feces at all in those pictures . . . There aren't even bongos and weed!

As sarcastic as that was... I think the one thing that law enforcement SHOULD encourage is the smoking of weed at a protest.

When have you seen someone stoned think of doing anything violent so long as they are provided with munchies?

LOL Good point.

"I think we should burn the police station!"

"I think we should find some brownies."

[chorus of "brownies!"]

I saw a guy who had been in Vietnam flip out after getting high...but I suspect that had more to do with the Vietman part than the getting high part.

I view it more as I owned his ass. It was easy and quick and took less than a minute to point out the socialist, communist and anti-capitalism messages. Quick, stabbing, ownage.
That's because you're in deep denial. I saw 100% of the signs and expressly called out the two that denounced capitalism ... and the hundred or so that did not. You, on the other hand saw only the same two signs I already mentioned, plus the small print on one I missed, and completely ignored the other 97% that contradict your delusions. Yet you prattle on about how you're the one who sees reality. The only person you owned is you.


If one continues to believe they aren't a strong driver of this, then one is truly blind or seeing the movement for what they wish it to be and not what it really is. Read 3% of the signs,
FTFY.

You also left out the part about ignoring the 97% of the signs that show the movement to be exactly what it claims to be.


listen to their demands, listen to what they say - it is ever so obvious.

And I'll cut OWS supporters right off - no, you can't say "oh, but that's a small percentage and therefore doesn't matter" The list of demands I posted should squash that right in the bud, ...
And this should be another clue to you that you've lost touch with reality, that you constantly resort to lies to support your deluded views. That wasn't a list of "demands" by the OWS movement. It was a sampling of proposals CBS heard while interviewing random, individual protestors. It was a bunch of ideas, some good and some not.

And before you entrench too deeply on "demands" vs. "proposals", I'll point out that when you first posted that list even you referred to them as proposals. It's only later you've perverted this into "demands".

Finally, you never did apologize for lying about that earlier list of "OWS demands". Much earlier in this thread you claimed a list of specific salaries was an OWS demand, with your usual ranting and screeching. The truth of the matter was OWS had actually rejected that list, and labeled it as such in the document you quoted. You lied and claimed it was an OWS demand anyway.

Once again, when you so consistently rely on willful dishonesty to support your beliefs, you need to take a long, hard look in a mirror and acknowledge how screwed up you've become.

Hell, just a few minutes on commuist party site and I see they are working WITH OWS.

How about this as well?

Then why is the communist and socialist parties "standing in solidarity" with OWS? Because they support their message of communism and socialism. You're blind and delusional.

Hell, just a few minutes on communist party site reveals they are working WITH OWS, a participating partner.

I know who's involved in this, you apparently don't. Or more likely, simply refuse to believe facts and reality in the denial of the mind of a liberal.

Why did OWS and the Tea Party stand together in (forget which) southern city recently? Is the Tea Party supporting communism and socialism too? Ron Paul stands with Republicans yet denounces many parts of their platform. What does that "prove" about him? Do you suppose the old saying that "politics makes strange bedfellows" might exist for good reason?

No, of course you don't because you're locked in deep denial. You are incapable of even seeing the 97% because you are fixated on the tiny 3% minority that validates your delusions. You toss out one irrational excuse after another because you have become incapable of reason.

Look for the white light Spidey. You can find it if you try. Go back to those 44 pictures and 100+ signs. Read each one. Read the words. Write them down if you need to. Objectively and honestly notice how the vast majority do not match your delusions. It could be the first small step in you regaining sanity.

As the kids like to say, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". And the city you are referring to is Richmond I believe. But from the article I read the Tea Party is also pissed at the City Of Richmond for requiring the Tea Party to pay something like 8-12k in fees and permits, yet OWS did not pay anything and is actually costing the city tons of money in enforcement and cleanup.

Yes, that's the one I was thinking of. Thanks!

I've always liked
"Pleasing your enemies does not turn them into friends."

#Occupy is also supporting the Tea Party in that the City of Richmond sent a letter that they're going to audit the Tea Parties finances after the Tea Party filed the complaint. It's a pretty plain view of political intimidation on the part of the City.

Yea, that does seem fairly cut and dry intimidation. When did government begin thinking that the populace is to be subservient to them, and not the other way around? The governments finances IS OUR finances!

Another sexual assault. Remember, the protesters have been told not to go to police for rapes as it makes them look bad. Isolated incident...the comments are golden.
http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/crime/police-investigate-occupy-hartford-sex-assault

From the article:

Upon arriving police were able to locate the victim, who said a Hispanic male, 5'5" tall, weighing approximately 130 lbs. forcefully kissed and groped her.

It probably was a Class A misdemeanor, and falls under sexual misconduct and not sexual assault.

There are greys in the world, not everything is black and white.

Looks like Occupy Wallstreet jumped the shark and is pretty much just low level background noise.

Not much about it in the media as before, most people don't even talk about it.

Looks like they offered no message so no one listened anymore.

Hard to have a compelling message when you're stoned and haven't bathed in a while. Bongos can only carry you so far.
