Occupy Wall Street

Shlomart Ben Yisrael · Mon Oct 03, 2011 2:25 pm

Seems more like a gay street party to me. Is this just an excuse for the jobless to shout at brick walls?

Let the teargas fly, Mayor Bloomberg.

RACK THIS!!

This Is What a Mob Looks Like
by Ann Coulter 10/05/2011

I am not the first to note the vast differences between the Wall Street protesters and the tea partiers. To name three: The tea partiers have jobs, showers and a point.

No one knows what the Wall Street protesters want -- as is typical of mobs. They say they want Obama re-elected, but claim to hate "Wall Street." You know, the same Wall Street that gave its largest campaign donation in history to Obama, who, in turn, bailed out the banks and made Goldman Sachs the fourth branch of government.

This would be like opposing fattening, processed foods, but cheering Michael Moore -- which the protesters also did this week.

But to me, the most striking difference between the tea partiers and the "Occupy Wall Street" crowd -- besides the smell of patchouli -- is how liberal protesters must claim their every gathering is historic and heroic.

They chant: "The world is watching!" "This is how democracy looks!" "We are the ones we've been waiting for!"

At the risk of acknowledging that I am, in fact, "watching," this is most definitely not how democracy looks.

Sally Kohn, a self-identified "community organizer," praised the Wall Street loiterers on CNN's website, comparing the protest to the Boston Tea Party, which she claimed, "helped spark the American Revolution," adding, "and yes, that protest ultimately turned very violent."

First of all, the Boston Tea Party was nothing like tattooed, body–pierced, sunken-chested 19-year-olds getting in fights with the police for fun. Paul Revere's nighttime raid was intended exclusively to protest a new British tea tax. (The Wall Street protesters would be more likely to fight for a new tax than against one.)

Revere made sure to replace a broken lock on one of the ships and severely punished a participant who stole some of the tea for his private use. Samuel Adams defended the raid by saying that all other methods of recourse -- say, voting -- were unavailable.

Our revolution -- the only revolution that led to greater freedom since at least 1688 -- was not the act of a mob.

As specific and limited as it was, however, even the Boston Tea Party was too mob-like to spark anything other than retaliatory British measures. Indeed, it set back the cause of American independence by dispiriting both American and British supporters, such as Edmund Burke.

George Washington disapproved of the destruction of the tea. Benjamin Franklin demanded that the India Tea Co. be reimbursed for it. Considered an embarrassment by many of our founding fathers, the Boston Tea Party was not celebrated for another 50 years.

It would be three long years after the Boston Tea Party when our founding fathers engaged in their truly revolutionary act: The signing of the Declaration of Independence.

In that document, our Christian forebears set forth in blindingly clear terms their complaints with British rule, their earlier attempts at resolution, and an appeal to the Supreme Judge of the world for independence from the crown.

The rebel armies defending that declaration were not a disorganized mob, chanting slogans for the press and defacing public property.

Even the Minutemen, whose first scuffle with the British began the war, were a real army with ranks, subordination, coordination, drills and supplies. There is not a single mention in the historical record of Minutemen playing hacky-sack, burning candles assembled in "peace and love," or sitting in drum circles.

A British lieutenant-general who fought the Minutemen observed, "Whoever looks upon them as an irregular mob will find himself very much mistaken."

By contrast, the directionless losers protesting "Wall Street" -- Obama's largest donor group -- pose for the cameras while uttering random liberal cliches lacking any reason or coherence.

But since everything liberals do must be heroic, the "Occupy Wall Street" crowd insists on comparing themselves to this nation's heroes.

One told Fox News' Bill Schulz: "I was born to be here, right now, the founding fathers have been passing down the torch to this generation to make our country great again."

The Canadian environmental group behind Occupy Wall Street, Adbusters, has compared the Wall Street "revolutionaries" to America's founding fathers. (Incidentally, those who opposed the American Revolution fled after the war to ... Canada.)

The -- again -- Canadians exulted, "You sense they're drafting a new Declaration of Independence."

I suppose you only "sense" it because they're doing nothing of the sort. They say they want Mao as the president -- as one told Schulz -- and the abolition of "capitalism."

The modern tea partiers never went around narcissistically comparing themselves to Gen. George Washington. And yet they are the ones who have engaged in the kind of political activity Washington fought for.

The Tea Party name is meant in fun, inspired by an amusing rant from CNBC's Rick Santelli in February 2009, when he called for another Tea Party in response to Obama's plan to bail-out irresponsible mortgagers.

The tea partiers didn't arrogantly claim to be drafting a new Declaration of Independence. They're perfectly happy with the original.

Tea partiers didn't block traffic, sleep on sidewalks, wear ski masks, fight with the police or urinate in public. They read the Constitution, made serious policy arguments, and petitioned the government against Obama's unconstitutional big government policies, especially the stimulus bill and Obamacare.

Then they picked up their own trash and quietly went home. Apparently, a lot of them had to be at work in the morning.

In the two years following the movement's inception, the Tea Party played a major role in turning Teddy Kennedy's seat over to a Republican, making the sainted Chris Christie governor of New Jersey, and winning a gargantuan, historic Republican landslide in the 2010 elections. They are probably going to succeed in throwing out a president in next year's election.

That's what democracy looks like.

These are scum bag cockroach LEFT wing wackos. Plain and simple. The news media is trying to compare them to the "tea party", NO FUCKIN WAY!!!

The Tea Party is all about FREEDOM and less government, while these sick ass liberal nutjobs are all about MORE government and less freedom for individuals.

I am fuckin mad as hell about this. Wanna know what I think? Get the fuck outta wall st. and get a fuckin JOB! You sick smelly weirdo liberals. Get a fuckin job you low life losers. STOP fucking and popping out babies, when you dont have the money to feed yourself even!!

Herman Cain came out with a statement, he told the losers who are marching and demonstrating, "If you are poor, get a fuckin JOB you losers you". Dont blame the rich, blame your own sick ass self, and stop crying and get to work you low life cocksuckers.

If you really wanted a job, just walk yourself into ANY wendys, chick filet, or MC Donalds, and with hard work, in 4 or 5 years, you can be the manager of one of these establishments, making between 45,000 and 65, 000 a year. Not bad for a loser scumbag drug using lowlife like yourself.

BUT, NOOOOO! these sick liberals want to sleep in all day, get free checks from the democrats, who in turn get their votes, fuck all day, pop out babies, get more free checks, and then blame the rich?

FUCK YOU, and I want the police to spray pepper in the eyes of any weirdo hippie left winger who steps outta line.

You disturb the peace in my city? im gonna shit down ur liberal throat, and piss in your fag liberal face.

NOW, I am not saying that there arent criminal greedy rich people, sure there are, BUT, there are also millions of sick sick poor people who fuck all day, use drugs, pop out babies when they cant afford to feed themselves.

THEN, after they make bad and sick choices all their miserable lives, they have the nerve to blame the rich? FUCK YOU.

I have zero sympathy for an urban girl who has no money to feed herself, YET, she fucks all night and sleeps all day, popping out cockroaches to feed, and Bradhusker, the taxpayer gets the bill?

FUCK YOU.

NO MORE, you make horrible choices all your life, and then have the nerve to blame others for your sick ways?

FUCK YOU.

The tards are marching through Portland right now.

If history is any indicator here in Little Beruit, the Popo is going to rack up some nice overtime, which won't compare to the expense incurred from replenishing the supply of pepperspray.

The Dreadlocks of the Parkblocks have a lifetime oh-fer in this rivalry, but they're always ready for a rematch.

Uhm, serious question -- are you a complete fucking tard?

The Cultists seem to think the use of fossil fuels must be causing this warming thing.

Quiz question for you...

Q: What do portable generators run on?

Take your time.

Bonus Q: what are the majority of part in a laptop made of?

Again, take your time.

Just speaks to the disgusting sense of entitlement some people have -- "YOU need to stop using fossil fuels... but it's OK for me, because I'm on the Righteous Path."

"Corporations need to pay more taxes... even though I paid zero in federal taxes last year."

"I'm going to show how much I think corporations are damaging this country by spray-painting the front of their building." (Happened in the Occupy Portland thing last night...

where the people crying out for more government regulation are camping out, blocking a permitted event.

This whole (bowel) movement is just one KYOA after another. Some are undoubtedly using HP laptops to blog in protest of corporate exec bonuses.

OK, that would be Chris Dodd, Chuckie schumer, Barney Frank, and the rest of the sick liberal democrats who made it SUPER easy for low life scum to own a home, knowing full well they couldnt afford a home.

AND, those very same democrats did NOT listen to G W BUSH who warned them that Fannie and Freddie were headed for deep deep trouble, which could cause serious economic meltdown, They ignored Bush 5 times between 2001 and 2005.

So, it seems Felix the moron doesnt know who to protest against, cause your a fuckin idiot.
