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.

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.
