You can tell that when Occupy Denver was finally evicted, it was a real eviction (not a pretend eviction to be immediately followed by them being allowed back in as happened with Occupy Oakland) because this time, no Kent State Moment, no highly dramatic confrontation footage, no gigantic hordes of police dressed in maximum menace gear. Seems that when you actually evict the Occupiers, you don’t need nearly as many …
The sins of “Occupy Wall Streetâ€
This should not be necessary, but I observe right wing blogs blissfully unaware of what has been going on, so, a list:
Herman Cain charged with making a woman feel bad about herself
And if a woman says whatever it is that she is saying (not that anyone is telling us what she is saying) the man must be guilty, right?
épater la bourgeoisie
Occupy Wall Street is the rage of a privileged elite. Here are some images of the digs of some of those arrested.
No friends to the right
Men’s Warehouse sends their staff to join the protest, with pay. Which means, of course, they send warehouse security away.
Riot choreography
Supposedly, according to Associated Press “Port of Oakland reopens after Wall Street protesters remove blockade that had shut down operations overnight†They very much wish that Wall Street protestors had been able to shut down operations Supposedly there was a general strike in Oakland yesterday, a strike, which, however, strangely only affected city operations. But what in fact happened was revealed by the Police Association:
Lew Rockwell drinks the left’s Koolaid
According to LewRockwell.com the protesters were peaceful, the only ones acting out with petty violence being loudly chastised by the crowd. The most belligerent participants by far were law enforcers, who responded to thrown bottles and civil disobedience with tear gas and rubber bullets.
And now to manufacture a Kent State Moment
But alas, no protestor is volunteering to die, and no cop is volunteering to be the designated bad guy.
Herman Cain sticks it to political correctness
At 41 seconds into the ad, the speaker says: “We can do this, we can take this country back”, and takes a drag on a cigarette. So who are we taking it back from? We are taking it back from the scolds and self righteous naggers.
The lesson of Gaddafi
The brutal death of Gaddafi teachers all rulers a lesson: Emulate Syria, Iran, and Turkey. Obstinately continue to do bad things to Americans, do not give in. Do not imitate Gaddafi, who stopped doing terrorism, backed off and went on his best behavior after Ronald Reagan killed various members of Gaddafi’s family. Still less should you emulate Egypt, and be an American ally.
