    Default Occupy Wall Street

    I didn't notice a thread on it.

    Seems to be the typical communist/leftist/anarchist dirt-bag types. Sadly, there are some things that need to change on Wall Street, especially the hold they have over politicians of both parties. But protests like this do nothing but show how stupid and evil the left is.

    Once their filth is swept up, nothing will change.

    As far as the protesters, they crack me up. Some are claiming to be $100K in debt in student loans and can't find a job. First off, don't borrow $100K for a degree that will land a $40K job if you are lucky. If you are $100K in debt and you are not a doctor, lawyer, or MBA, then you made some BAD choices. Ever heard of Community College?

    Most of the protesters however are just professional losers. I wonder how many that are complaining about jobs actually filled out an application in the past six months or how many could pass a pre-employment drug screen.

    We're constantly getting bombarded here via the media about it as it's across the river from us. But as David (Craik) mentioned, I'm more interested in football and other things that I'm not paying close attention.
    I'm so disgusted with politics and the current state of events at the moment that I'm getting more and more apathetic.

    Seriously, with all that is going on I sometimes feel like I'm living in 1932 Berlin.

    I'm glad that these protests are happening but really disgusted by the trash who seem to be doing them. On the radio they sound like 8th grade dropouts with drug-induced brain damage. There's a reason it's called dope.

    That scares the bejesus out of me, Don. And I feel similarly.

    A large majority of the protesters are useful idiots. They don't realize they are being used by the radical left.

    Great links Cliff! As I said on another thread, I believe "the protestors are being encouraged and even organized by the 'far-left", and it's likely that it goes all the way to the Oval Office as well. After all, the one job skill that our Community Organizer in Chief had was stirring up crap and ginning up protests/civil disobedience. He's just taken it from the streets of Chicago and gone nationwide".

    On a similar note, the liberal media is trying to equate these "Occupy" maggots with the Tea Party Movement. No comparison. With the Tea Party, you didn't see lots of arrests, violence, property damage and the sort of crap (literally) being flung by the protesters. Instead, you law abiding citizens expressing their views, not getting violent, cleaning up after themselves, and no arrests. No moral equivalent or otherwise.

    I'm sorry Erik, but I stopped listening to this bozo (Paul Krugman) after what he wrote about 9/11. I like to think of myself as a fairly easy going chap, but I'm NEVER going to forget that.

    Krugman is a friggin scumbag. I agree with Jonathan, after his 9/11 article, he is not someone I would give the time of day to. Scum...

    NYC has got something worse than bedbugs now. It seems they are popping up on the West coast to.

    This is not a protest. It's a damned drum circle. This totally needs to stop. Protest is one thing, a jagoff rally is another.

    Well this should pretty well distinguish the difference between the Tea Party and the Commie maggots that are protesting.

    This is pretty funny, and it's a darn shame that the media couldn't find this for themselves... not that they would actually report it.
