*UPDATED* #OccupyWallStreet: The Rap Sheet, So Far
by John Nolte***Updated 12/9/2011– Today we hit incident 417.
New commentary has been added. Original commentary can be found below the Rap Sheet.
Don’t let the MSM get away with lying to you. Obama and the Democrats are all on record endorsing, embracing, encouraging and emboldening #OccupyWallStreet.
Obama on Occupy Wall Street: ‘We Are on Their Side’
House Democrats Endorse Occupy Wall Street
Top Democrats Endorse Occupy Wall Street Protests
Pelosi Supports Occupy Wall Street Movement
——
The plan was a simple one. The path to Obama’s second term requires that enough voters forget that our current economic woes are the fault of a failed President who enjoyed two years of having every single item on his wish-list passed by Congress. And so the idea was to create Occupy in order to give the MSM the cover they desired to spend every single day up until the election talking about greed and income inequality in order to blame both for the stagnant economy.
The hope was that by repeating this message incessantly, enough voters could be convinced that Wall Street, and by extension, evil Republicans, were to blame for our chronic unemployment, record deficits, and stillborn economic growth. President Obama who?
—–
Fortunately for America, this plan has not only failed miserably it has backfired completely. Thanks to the rise of New Media and our unwillingness to let the MSM’s lies, bias, and cover ups stand for even one more day, Occupy is in its death throes and might take the President and Democratic party down with it. First and foremost, we uncovered the lie that Occupy was grassroots and then we exposed every Occupy rape, poop, death, overdose, old woman thrown down the stairs, attack on a police officer, and public act of masturbation. In the process, public opinion turned against the Occupiers and as a result these Leftists have started doing what the Left always does when they lose … have a tantrum:

Recently, President Obama said that the Occupiers are just like the Tea Party.
That’s a lie.
We need to keep this list updated and comprehensive. Please email whatever I might have missed and any future incidents to jnolte@breitbart.com or tweet them to @NolteNC.
One of the secret weapons the corrupt mainstream media uses in their never-ending quest to Palace Guard for the left is context. For example, when it came to the Tea Party, the MSM was notorious for amplifying a single incident (that was usually a lie) and using it to attempt to smear and define an entire movement. This is what you do when you want to quickly take out a political enemy.
The MSM’s contextual game changes, however, when their desire is to strengthen a movement and give it credibility and room to grow. By dutifully reporting individual incidents but not reporting on the growing scope and size of Occupy Wall Street lawlessness, the MSM is willfully covering up the violence, vandalism, and anti-Semitism that truly does define this movement.Moreover, by intentionally keeping the pieces of this story scattered, the MSM is allowed to have their cake and eat it too. No one can accuse them of not reporting these incidents, but by choosing not to bring the pieces together, the MSM ensures the least amount of public relations damage is done to the Occupiers.
What I’ve collected below is far from comprehensive but still shows over 75 incidents of sexual assault, violence, vandalism, anti-Semitism, extortion, perversion, and lawlessness.
The MSM could easily tell the story of how this violence-prone movement is becoming an increasing threat to our society. After all, my research below is the result of nothing more than Twitter and Google. Among others, The New York Times, Washington Post, Politico, and the LA Times have willfully chosen not to use the resources at their disposal to give the public an honest look at this growing menace. In their partisan minds, truth doesn’t trump agenda.
A few notes on the list below. Whenever possible, I traced the incident back to the original news source. I was as careful as possible when it came to duplicate postings, though I would guess there are a few in here. There are also less than five examples that don’t involve what I would qualify as outright lawlessness but do help to expose the Occupiers for who and what they really are. Finally, and this is the most important way in which the list is imperfect, I most certainly wasn’t able to document everything. A perfect list would be much more alarming than the one I slapped together in just a few hours.
What is true is that on October 18, pollster Doug Schoen (a Democrat!) discovered that a full 31% of Occupiers were willing to commit violence in pursuit of their agenda, whatever that is. As a response to this startling and frightening admission, the MSM either outright ignored or dismissed it. What you’ll see below proves that at least when it comes to their willingness to break the law, the Occupiers are keeping their word.
The list is in no particular order. Like the Occupiers themselves, it’s unruly, disorganized, messy and not focused solely on the nation’s media centers. The movement is spreading across America and bringing with it their outrageous and appalling behavior.
On top of everything else, imagine the drain all this lawlessness has on law enforcement resources. My list doesn’t even include the collateral damage. Thanks to Occupy Wall Street’s drain on police personnel, shootings increased 154% in New York alone. What is it in Chicago, Seattle, Boston, Oakland, and Cleveland?
Just last week Vice President Joe Biden was all freaked out about the possibility of crime rates increasing if Congress didn’t pass Obama’s Son of Stimulus. Well, that premise was based on a lie, but the same White House trying to sell that bill of bull isn’t at all concerned with the very real increase in crime caused by the Occupiers they encourage.
Please keep the tips coming. Email me at jnolte@breitbart.com.

Barack Obama and the left wing liberal loons try and draw a parallel with The Tea Party and the Occupy Wall Street movements. As usual with this President, there seems to be a mis-calculation in his assessment. Mr. President, it kind of looks like the same mis-understanding on how you have run the economy into the ground.
http://floydreports.com/video-occupy-wall-street-...
You forgot these guys

Did not mean to criticize, you guys are doing great work.
I could add a few to this list…and part III coming Sunday.

So, what do we do about the MSM, John? We didn't elect them. We can't vote them out. Breitbart is having no effect on them. What do you suggest we do?
It would have been considered inconceivable pre-OWS that the same nanny state micro-managing, over-regulating bureaucrats who put hundreds of public ordinances on the books specifically against these things would allow these people to squat on public (and private) property for over a month with no end in sight.
Apparently, some protestors are more equal than others…
Obama wants the Occupy to be accepted by Americans generally as As Patriotic As The Tea Party only composed of a smarter class of people.
And the MSM is willing to go way out there and provide this image!
The MSM always provides "balance" by shifting balance heavily to this side or that to create their own "balance."
These are people who are clueless herded by Leftists and and the MSM which pines for the days when T. Kennedy was still alive.
yes they are having an effect- not an overnight riotous effect but a legal, educational effect. I have seen so many people see the light bulb in the last 2 yrs.. and at least you can do your part by educating people and not throwing your money towards the lame stream. It gets old when people just want to sit and complain and sit on their own rumps doing nothing expecting everyone else too.
we keep going to their competitors while there newspapers fail and ratings tank, remember Newsweek sold for $1.
And oaklands Mayor appologizes for the police action. WTF? And what, Prey tell, will she do when they all turn in thier badges and say, "Now you can do it on your own Madame Mayor!" It should be pretty fun to watch.
"not throwing your money towards the lame stream."
How exactly does one do that? I've never sent the ass hats a penny. They get their money from advertisers. You going to start a boycott of thousands of companies? Let me know how that works out.
Seems like you don't have any answers either.
"yes they are having an effect- not an overnight riotous effect but a legal, educational effect."
I'd like to see some proof of that. Got documentation? If they were having such an effect, I wouldn't be asking this question to begin with…nor would John have needed to write this article.
"remember Newsweek sold for $1."
It was overpriced.
the media will be forced to change (or suffer for it) they already lose precious advertising dollars. The problem is the over-subsidized and left-leaning academia and the institutional machines spitting out these drones.
"As Patriotic As The Tea Party only composed of a smarter class of people."
That may be the funniest thought I've seen today. "Occupiers" are not smart, they're stoned. THAT would be why obama identifies with them so strongly.
Don't forget these guys!!!
http://www.copblock.org/5475/when-should-you-shoo...
This group has recently joined @OWS and they are passing around the above article in flyer form in Phoenix, AZ at their little astroturf event, then there's this guy..
http://www.copblock.org/5475/when-should-you-shoo...
Of course Media Murders and the "Senior Fellow from Lotion Gulch" had this rebuttal "connecting" JT Ready to "past" Tea Party events…
http://mediamatters.org/blog/201110270025
The real difference here is that the Tea Party has gone above and beyond the call in ejecting and barring these types of ass holes from their events yet OWS remains silent.
We choose our friends wisely and we WILL NEVER stand shoulder to shoulder with Communists(Richard Trumka), Nazis(Bill Ayers), Socialists(Ed Shultz), White Supremacists(David Duke), Black Supremacists(Malik Zulu Shabazz), Anti Semites(Rosanne Barr), Radical Islamists(Louis Farrakhan) or Anarchists(Dylan Rattigan).
Where is the "statement of conscience" equal to the one the Tea Party released in response to the malicious lies of the MSM against us???
Why no demands from the NAACP, ADL, JDL and President Downgrade denouncing the rampant VIDEO EVIDENCE of racism, violence, AntiSemitism, Anti Christian, Anti American, Nazi groups and communists at OWS?
Election day got your tongue?
For every Left wing outlet you get rid of, ten more take its place. I don't call that progress. I don't see it as cause for celebration either.
And as long as they have the MSM to cover and spin for them, OWS is going to keep doing these things.
How bad does it have to get before the media can't hide the bad stuff the Occupiers are doing? They've already muffled reports of rapes and assaults (maybe THAT'S what Biden was talking about: approve Obama's big public union kickback, or his OWS goons are going to rape and attack people). Are a few dozen trick-or-treating kids going to disappear before someone realizes these occupy people are creeps?
Also…ratings mean nothing. Is NBC/MSNBC out of business yet? They've got the lowest ratings of anyone and yet even Breitbart sees fit to run their crap. This problem is far more insidious than our political ones, and will be exponentially harder to solve.
many of the "occupiers" are the most credentialed stupid people there are, living proof of what an ivy league education is really worth.
The Marxist and his buddies have been fomenting this stupidity, and it is about to backfire on them.
The next picture that should have been taken was this clown getting tased. If I was the GOP would use this as a campaign picture. This is the leftwing's base.
The same media that has ignored Obama’s ties to Rezko, Ayers, et al. will ignore any other scandals that arise. They count on it. Like a cat hiding under a thin bedspread they’re not fooling anyone but themselves.
huh? since when was ineffectiveness the sole limitation on advertising? Check your email filter for spam, then your mailbox- delivering junk mail no one reads is the only reason the post office still exists, which unfortunately is the next step if the news media loses all their ads: nationalization, since govt. now apparently exists to prevent failing enterprises from going out of business.
Actually low ratings mean that no one is watching them.
Explain to me how a political election is going to effect the ethical behavior of MSM outlets.
If there is a dumb ass here, it is you, pal.
Great article, as usual.
I sincerely tried to help out the Occupy movement by offering up advice on how to clean up their act and expand the movement to truly include all 99% of the rest of us. But nooooooo………… they just wouldn't listen. And now they are starting to look just a little bit foolish. Plus, their message is just not as clear as when they started out. Hell, I even suggested a new name for the movement, "Occupy Every Street", which would have allowed everyone to sleep in their own bed at night, instead of camping in the cold.
Anyway, check out Practical Pete's Advice to the Occupy movement (Oct 13 post) at the Pundit Pete Press Service (satire). http://punditpete.blogspot.com/
You might even find some good protest sign ideas.
We all know that if the tea party had spent one night camped out the MSM would have gone nuts. Maybe it's time we have a tea party camp out just to prove the point. Then we can call them out on this slanted journalism.
I'm not seeing any 'suffering' going on in the MSM. One lost head does not a hydra kill.
You're correct about the causation, which is why this problem will be with us for generations…if any of us last that long. Personally, I doubt it.
You don't have 'faith'. What you have is false hope in humanity. That makes you a big fat idiot in my book. You have the lunatic optimism of a secular humanist.
Evidence is CNN's epic loss of control over cable news and MSNBC's abysmal ratings, Fox wouldn't be the biggest news provider if they weren't suffering. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean they will go out of business any time soon though.
Oh sure. Anyone can cherry pick a few isolated incidents and make a substantive list of (so far) more than 80 disgusting, perverted and/or illegal acts committed by a largely non-violent, wholesome group of well-informed, upstanding young citizens. /sarc
I think the goal is to build it hugely and have it blow then declare an "emergency" doe to the riots.
If they started in Feb. it might have worked, but winter and no global warming is gonna be tough.
they might actually bring out the tanks for that…

Yeah! Did you see that one Occupy Guru about ten days ago assuring the echoing throng they could have sex with animals? That Guru of lavatory Occupation and mental Constipation sure has HIS following figured out!
They were probably too stoned to even notice. It's all consensus…which is how the Soviet government ran for decades.
DISGUSTING
Boy oh boy, the dregs of humanity are crawling out of their basements, caves, woodwork, and from under rocks; and this rabble is supported by unions, elected city officials, federal officials, Hamas, communist party, and the LSM. Sure doesn't say much for the toddler's voting base. But one must not forget that the brat was and still is a divisive, small community agitator. He feels right at home.Boy oh boy, the dregs of humanity are crawling out of their basements, caves, woodwork, and from under rocks; and this rabble is supported by unions, elected city officials, federal officials, Hamas, communist party, and the LSM.

This behavior has been observed and well described before… There is nothing new under the sun.
It is described as Licentiousness: http://eastonsbibledictionary.com/licentiousness….
Seems to be heading that way. They tried to goad the TEA party to violence with claims of racism, etc….but we wouldn't take the bait. So now they are using the useful idiots to clamp down.
If we ALL stop watching, listening to and reading the liberal crap the loss of advertisers will follow. Support conservative media with our attentive participation to their efforts and support their advertisers, and tell these advertisers that they got our business because they advertised on Fox or Breitbart or ??? But make sure that the advertisers know it was a particular CONSERVATIVE outlet that you saw the ad on. If an advertiser places ads on liberal media don't buy that product and be sure to tell them why, Make no bones about it and don't apologize for being a staunch conservative.The greedy, stupid, uneducated liberals have all been taught to divert our arguments by changing the subject or attacking the messenger rather than the message.This has to stop and we can do it if we stick together.
As I pointed out earlier, their ratings are meaningless. As abysmal as they are, they are still on line/ on air spewing their lies and misinformation. That is NOT going to change any time soon. The most you can hope for is a change of tactics on their part…not a change in ideology or agenda. Even Fox is going over to the dark side, slowly but surely.
Face it…American Journalism is a terminal cancer patient. (for a host of reasons)
He's always been a pied piper leading his vermin….
What a distinguished "WHo's Who"
When John Nolte wants to get paid for more serious journalism, he might start with some of this "unruly, disorganized, messy and …appalling behavior."

Theres a message in there. Don't forget to fact check.
That's a pretty website, with all sorts of links. Too bad it didn't stop Romney.
Have fun this weekend.
So why does Breitbart feel it necessary to follow their stories, and their meme's, and cover them exhaustively on his sites?
The very fact that we are discussing them now proves that they are still relevant. You can wish that would change as much as you like, but we'll still be having this discussion in ten years if we make it that long.
The problem is one of leverage. Currently, the public has none. They aren't likely to acquire it any time soon, either. The only viable way to solve this problem (and I am not advocating anything here) is to do what the Chinese did with their drug addicts…drag them all out in the public square and shoot them in the back of their heads. Then you can start over from scratch from the ground up. But, if you do that, you'll end up with everything else China has to "offer".
The point is that you're wrong. You're not going to change the way media works or the biases it chooses to display. It will take two generations or more to breed the problem out of existence. America has long ago proven it doesn't have what it takes to follow an issue that long. We let Progressive Socialism have a 100 year free pass. Even now 'conservatives' are arguing over which pieces of it to keep. I don't think we (collectively) have the brains, the spine, the time or the will to do what it takes to fix the problem.
…and… that's…the rest… of the story.
Good day.
I see you're starting to see the bigger picture. Look down that road, and then tell me with a straight face that it isn't all being orchestrated. You should also be able to put a few faces with that thought (millions, if you include their sycophantic followers…the 'useful idiots', if you will). Then you'll realize why the media isn't really going to change for the better.
If they are protesting banking, why are the using a bank? Are they going to collect interest? I really don't have a clue what your point is and Mr.Taibbi seems to have flunked critical thinking the school system is always touting.
Would you give the idea that this protest is not about collecting interest some critical thought?
Contessa? *crickets*
Is that Joe Biden in the photo? Hard to tell from this angle but the behavior gives it away.
"if we stick together. "
Well…there's the rub, isn't it?
I really wish this were all about banks and the government being too cozy with one another. And to be fair, there are certainly people who are protesting solely for that reason alone. These folks aren't all hippies or revolutionaries.
But the leadership of the movement (and yes there are leaders despite statements to the contrary) want far more than an end to the mingling of Washington and Wall Street. We have their own words as evidence. Their desire is to take the relatively benign complaints about crony capitalism and merge them with a full-blown call to remake our entire economic system into something antithetical to most Americans.
Those people are going to keep pushing to get what they want, and they're hoping they can start to drag along the average protester who's simply upset about bailouts. The madness of crowds can be a powerful motivator to compel people to support causes they wouldn't otherwise support. The people behind the scenes are hoping to exploit that phenomena.
(And it bears repeating that if this were only about collusion between the government and Wall Street, protesters would be occupying the National Mall, too. None of this corruption happens without a far-too-powerful government orchestrating it.)
STOP GIVING THEM PRESS…IT ONLY FEEDS THEIR MADNESS TO BE 'HIPPIES' FROM THE 60'S!

Fu*k these liberal b*stards. Stop writing about them- and they will go away!
And Fu*k Obama too!
The response has been that readers are leaving the MSM in droves and looking to accurate and truly unbiased sources like the Pundit Pete Press Service (satire). For example, check out the new reporter that PPPS just hired to cover the Occupy Wall Street protests. His name is Protester Pete, and he's as unbiased as you can get. http://punditpete.blogspot.com/
Just like the New York Times.
I don't disagree, but have seen enough of the guy sh)tting on the police car.
This group is not allowing leadership, which constitutes anything official as far as I can tell. Some stuff we buy into. Lots of stuff we don’t.
I still don't buy the "this should be in DC" argument. DC has become a swath of employees, who in too many ways no longer work for the people.
DC, for instance, doesn't even understand what they did when banks went behind their ear and moved along the de-regulation which allowed Credit Default Swaps into the market. Now, we hear the Greek crisis is supposedly over, but just as with the 13bb for AIG, these swaps are going to be tampered with so Goldman gets paid.
I don't know who holds what, with certainty, but the idea is I pay you for a CDS on Greece and if they pay back only 50%, you pay me the rest. I pay you an insurance premium, you make good when Greece defaults. In this case it is alleged that Goldman is the insurer (AIG was the insurer, when taxpayers stepped in and paid Goldman). Here's where it gets interesting. Becuase Goldman sits on the board of the body governing the swaps market, they basically get to re-define what a default is. They are trying to do this under the rubric that lenders who are allowing Greece to reneg on its debts are doing so on a "Voluntary" basis.
I remind everyone that Byron Dorgan's amendment to ban CDS was tabled, in 2009. Now, we see the game played out again. It isn't like the 80's, or 90's anymore. The "BANKS" changed what "WE" already had in place. If you watched how it was Senators on the agriculture committee (including Grassley) who stood up for change, you would have seen how the banks infiltrated everyplace else. SO, WE TAKE IT TO THEM.
The Volcker Rule is another example. This fundamental Glass-Steagall part was DEAD out of the Senate and only brought back in reconciliation between the two bodies of Congress because enough people were outraged. Obama wouldn't have cared because he didn't stand up for it, as it died the first time in the Senate.
Probably the same people who put all the fluoride in the toothpaste… do you collect a lot of newspaper clippings and red string?
exactly
"…these swaps are going to be tampered with so Goldman gets paid."
That's assuming the Greece deal goes ahead as planned. I'm not convinced the whole thing won't fall apart. In the event it does go ahead with the 50% "haircut," you are correct. We're going to be screwed all over again, and everyone should be pissed. Following Greece will be Italy, Spain, etc. Fun stuff.
However, only a handful of the protesters seem to get that this is possible solely because of the existence of the Federal Reserve (and not coincidentally the central banks of other countries). It enables the crony capitalism, and it enables the incredible growth in government we've experienced since its creation. And since people seem dead set on maintaining or growing the size of government, the primary mechanism by which we are all collectively screwed will remain in place.
Bailouts have become institutionalized.
Excellent, John. The people behind these protests work the most effectively in the dark, using a variety of seductive names for their organizations to gain the support of the young and brain washed. They have been at work this way for 70 years. They have made only one mistake along the way and they have made that same mistake twice. The election of Barack Obama emboldened them to come out into the light. They had to pull back some. The Occupy protests have emboldened them again and your reporting is exposing them. Exposure means their failure.
The MSM cannot continue their total support indefinitely when you keep reporting the truth. Diminishing returns will kick-in for many of them, but not all.
We will never completely exterminate them. The best we can do is keep them in their bunkers and keep their effectiveness at a minimum. This means they have to fail and fail big. Keep exposing them for what they are……..it's the only way.
I'm still laughing at Obama's Baghdad Bob, Jay Carney asking the nice protestors to behave.
I think we're just a bit past that point Jay!
Too bad Barry and the dems declared their support for the OWS movement.
Flucking scum. These people complain about this and that, but could care less what a record does to their employment chances in the future. PARTICULARLY in the digital age where this info will follow them into the net millennium..
Seeing most are unemployed now, a misdemeanor or felonious record won't be helping that situation.
That is of course unless they're looking for employment in the DNC, or another O'blamo administration or as SEIU/ Teamster Union thugs. In that case being a felon is a plus.
The OWS misfits have made their point. It's time for them to hang it up and go home. From what I have read, the sanitary conditions at Zucchini Park in NY have become intolerable. Now it's a perfect breeding ground for cholera, dysentary, staph infections, and numerous other diseases that are caused by open sewage. Just like a Third World refugee camp. Mayor Bloomberg is obviously afraid to evict them for fear of the violent insurrection that so many of them are hoping for. But pretty soon Nature is going to take its inevitable course, and a lot of those morons are going to get very sick from wallowing in their own sh**.
I am hoping word of mouth, from the people that deal with this on a daily basis will spread the truth. MSM sure won't.
AND ANOTHER CHANCE AT WHOLESALE EXTERMINATION OF COMMUNIST BASTARDS IN LARGE GROUPS GOES TO WASTE?? IF OBAMAS CREW NEVER LET A CRISIS GO TO WASTE??,EVEN IF THEY CREATE THEM??,WOULDN'T THIS BE TIT FOR TAT??? IF WE SEND COMMUNISTS PACKING,AMERICA WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE.
Regarding the picture heading this article, too bad it wasn't a K-9 cop with his dog in the back seat & the cop armed with a remote control for the windows, now let your imagination run wild……..
huh? who said it was the sole limitation?
These useful idiots are just pawns in a massive game for control of the USA's vast resourses. I pity them. Their "cause" is doomed from the start.
wow you sure know how to twist things and be nasty to boot. who said a political election has anything to do with the ethical behaviour of msm? wasn't me- just that more people are educating themselves with other media and then making an educated decision about their vote. A politicians nightmare is an educated voter.
well good news for me- I don't care what your book says.
Well I think you are wrong. The population at large is like a breeze that blows in the direction of current cultural tendencies. In 2008–after 10 years of hard push by the liberal/progressive culture–we got the epitome of liberal/progressievness, Barrack Obama as President.
Within a couple months of his inauguration, however, in the post-stimulus environment AND through websites such a Breitbart which expose LSM bias, the President's ratings have steadily sank. Why is that? Why did it take 10 years of hard push from the hard left to get a Progressive President, but only months of policy failure by the President to get momentum against hard left ideology?
I'd love your thoughts on this.
Hi John Nolte. My name is Matthew Richards, I am a Manchester resident and an organizer in Occupy New Hampshire, and I have a factual correction to make in regards to the first source you posted.
I slept in Victory Park, then Veteran's Park, 24/7 from when the occupation started on Sat October 15th to the date when our encampment got raided on October 19th. There have been a few conflicts among the transient/homeless population of the park, and we peacefully mediated all of them. However, there was no "pimping incident." I've never seen the woman in the article in my life. If she had been there, I would have seen it, because I was literally there 24/7.
Most importanly, the article is dated October 28th, and we haven't been in Victory Park for 2 weeks. There was no rally there, so it's impossible she was associated with Occupy New Hampshire. I've contacted the author of the Union Leader article so he can make a retraction, because clearly he's been misinformed.
The very fact that the OWS people continually discourage, it seems, rape victims from talking to the police so that their own internal "police" force can investigate the crime or threatening them to cow them into silence (several instances of which appear in the list above) makes them lose all credibility and worthy of respect with me. Those are the very things that the leftists and the feminists have lectured us NOT to do time and again for the last 30 years. Interesting that those who claim to be all about protecting the rights and lives of women merely throw them under the bus when the prospect of revolution comes knocking on the door.
Tea Party is Raaaaaaaasssssist!
[sarc]
The article never said what date the pimp met the kid, only that "A city woman is accused of pimping a 16-year-old girl she MET in Victory Park during the Occupy NH demonstrations."
Of course, there's always the lovely "peaceful" death threats from occupiers too: http://feedyouradhd.blogspot.com/2011/10/threat-f...
I admit I don't know what to do about it either. I can't watch much less TV than I already am. I don't buy any print media. I see maybe two movies a year. I'm not a big consumer of "stuff". What else can I possibly (not) do???
Would phone calls and emails do any good? Seems to work for the bullies like VanJones and the other commie groups.
Well they clearly want everthing they have never earned given to them. If they ever had anything they earned taken they might have a point, and they don't. This entire farce was concieved by a foreign agent and these mind numb robots think it is ther own. Critcal thinking? No. No thinking, just being useful idiots
I'm in the same boat.
I've been boycotting Levi Strauss ever since they sided against the Boy Scouts in favor of gay Scout Leaders. Has it affected them? Not one bit.
I boycott G.E. for their crony capitalism and support of a corrupt MSM. Has it done any good? How could it, when the Government itself is in bed with them?
It's just as I've stated earlier…the problem is one of leverage. The public has none, and it isn't likely to find any until they find their collective brains and testicles. That won't happen until it's way too late.
More's the pity for you, atheist.
Then you are part of the problem! Say hello to Teddy when you get to Hell!
Morning! I'm sitting here enjoying our first fire and it's toasty enough for everyone to run around in shorts and shirts! I don't even have the heat pump on.
)
It looks like the LORD has answered our weather prayer….the Northeast is going to get slammed with the snowstorm. I predict the OccuBrats won't last the weekend before they go home to their heated homes.
"who said a political election has anything to do with the ethical behaviour of msm?"
YOU DID!!!! And since you are denying it here, that makes you a liar as well as an idiot.
First of all, let me say we can agree on the 'whimsical' nature of the American public.
Now, allow me to point out that the subject of politics has zero to do with the behavior of the MSM. The Constitution itself stands as a bulwark between government and the Fourth Estate. That gives the MSM unprecedented freedom. As we all know, freedom means the ability to make an unfettered choice between good and evil. MSM has chosen evil. They have not been whimsical in their choice. They have been methodical and steadfast in their pursuit of Socialism for almost as long as they have existed…certainly as long as I've been alive. Much like (indeed, they are different arms of the same beast) the Progressive movement itself, which has been toiling diligently for 100 years to tear down what our Founding Fathers built.
In short, here is my thought on why you perceive 'achievement' on the part of conservatism…One Step Forward and Two Steps Back.
The Progressive Socialists have been running this shell game successfully for 100 years…and it still works. It's the slow run up to critical mass. Any 'gains' you might see come out of this will be short lived in the grand scheme of things. It is Biblical in Nature and can not be avoided, even though it is our lot to try.
So, we all busy ourselves with these stupid little arguments as we accompany each other straight down civilization's toilet. I guess we all seek comfort where we can. Personally, I put no faith in "Man's Better Nature". It is a myth. Man is of a fallen nature, and his every action proves the point. Trust in it if you like. I reject it at every turn.
and that is your opinion and good news- I don't care abut your opinion either.
who said I was an atheist. oh that is right- your arrogant and know everything.
Oh I see, you just think we need to get out the guns and start shooting? Is that your solution?
It's funny how the "extreme police action" is taking place in places run by Democrats.
Why don't they go camp out on some "journalists" lawns or their offices? I'm thinking, Chris Matthews or Ed Schulz. How about the White House rose garden?
My mailman calls the junk mail "job security".
And the idiot and his wife are passing out fruit for Halloween treats during a photo op at the white house. You fruit cakes are sick and could care less about any one but your pathetic selves!
I'm surprised their aren't any resident red-tags posting to this article yet. Maybe they are finally seeing the light (doubtful, but maybe)?
The idiot obama knows nothing except what his puppet masters, valerie jarrett and david axelrod tell him. I would vote for Bozo the Clown before barry.
Your words…not mine. I never said I had a solution, although that would do the trick. I'm growing tired of you now. You said you wanted to discuss the issue, but it appears that all you want to do is talk crap.
So…after giving you the benefit of the doubt and your snippy little 'reply', I feel no remorse whatsoever in telling you to go take a flying phuk at a rolling donut. Have a nice life.
Even the loss of advertisers won't solve the problem. As much money as Soros has, he could fund the entire MSM at a loss for the next thousand years and never notice the loss.
Have fun with your boycott. I'd love to see the stupid look on your face when it finally dawns on you that you've spent your time pissing up a rope accomplishing nothing.
You one of those internet tough guys, boy? Here's a thought… GFY.
Yeah. We got some snow. It lasted from 1AM to about 3AM. Never quite covered the grass. The rest that fell didn't stick. Made my first fire today as well. We've still got good color on the trees, but I'm not sure if that will last until your visit though. I'm just hoping for nice weather that day. Plenty of indoors activities if it turns bad though.
Do you believe these dufuses thinking they're going to change the media? I'm sure George Soros and his billions of dollars will have some input into that procedure! I will never get over just how dense some of these yahoos really are.
"I don't care what your book says."
MY book is the Holy Bible. If you don't care what it says, that makes you an atheist.
"your arrogant and know everything. "
If by "everything", you mean that I know that you're too stupid to differentiate between the words "your", and "you're", then yes…I know everything.
You seriously underestimate the industry that gave us Walter Littman and Joseph Goebbels. It's not about profit or loss. It's about telling the big lie long enough for a plurality to believe it.
