Someone is complaining again that I’m calling his peers “filthy smelly hippies” Where would I get such an idea? Maybe from Mayor Bloomberg;
Mayor Bloomberg finally decided to wipe Zuccotti Park clean after learning about a rancid outbreak of scabies, lice and lung ailments among protesters.
Fricken scabies, for Pete’s sake. Verum Serum reports that there have been threats to fire bomb New York City…on the heels of a Molotov cocktail tossing filthy hippies in Portland. Another protester in Chicago was arrested on an open warrant for child pornography when police checked a group of pot-smoking hippies. How cliche.
Meanwhile the 99% is shrinking;
The Occupy Wall Street movement is not wearing well with voters across the country. Only 33% now say that they are supportive of its goals, compared to 45% who say they oppose them. That represents an 11 point shift in the wrong direction for the movement’s support compared to a month ago when 35% of voters said they supported it and 36% were opposed
My goodness, what could have happened?
The media is telling us that this photo “is a haunting, cinematic image of brutality…may become the defining one of Occupy unrest”. It’s an 84-year-old woman who claims that she was just passing by a protest minding her own business when suddenly police thugs pepper-sprayed her already-seasoned face (see what I did there?).
Yeah, brutality, that’s what it is. I’ve been to plenty of protests and I’ve never been pepper-sprayed by the police – mostly because when the police tell me to do something, I comply. And I also know that the older protesters are, the more obnoxious they tend to act because they think they can get away with just about anything because who’d dare to pepper spray their old ass.
By the way, the woman in the picture is Dorli Rainey and even the Atlantic Wire says she’s been an activist for a while. On her blog, she calls herself a troublemaker. So she was hardly just passing by when the cops gassed her ass.
If that’s brutality, it’s no wonder they think waterboarding is torture. Thanks to Tman for the link.
Jonn….via one of my ninja’s. Here she is….

Actually…. she’s a life long lefty activist. She is as likely to “just pass by” a protest as she is win the Kentucky Derby.
You’d be wrong, Scott…..take a seat. Watch the video….
“Photo “is a haunting, cinematic image of brutality…”. Wait, I thought Scott Olsen was the “haunting” image of brutality. Must be he didn’t work out?
Old women always work out way better than some young, dumb service reject U.P. Here…..there’s more on Ms Dorli…

Well, I can only counter with this:

Never, EVER tell a Deputy “I dare you.” Grannies gone wild!!!
My ninja is working OT on this “old woman”….hehe! Dorli has had more run in’s with the po-po than you’d think.

This “old woman” runs with VFP (Must be Bill Perry’s next of kin)and has deep pocket monetary ties too…http://communityforums.org/partners-page/
So that’s what became of Helen Thomas. I was wondering. (I’m sorry but I was certain the pic was photoshopped–until I visited the source link. Now, I think it’s just a hoot.)
This has really been a banner day at TAH. First we had the gal who thought vinegar and water was just for cleaning windows and now this!
Filthy Hippies is actually a pretty accurate description. I was filthy when I was out at the COP for 9 days at a time (you knew it was time for a shower when you could smell yourself over the locals). Perfectly comfortable with it when its accurate.
Just a tidbit (if that’s possible) more…http://www.scn.org/womeninblack/links.htm It appears Ms. Dorli is a vetty busy woman…
“because when the police tell me to do something, I comply.”
What do you do when the secret service tells you to do something?
[/ducks for cover]
As far as the Secret Service goes, I can’t stop doing what they tell me to stop doing if I’m not doing it in the first place.
If she had been sprayed with pepper spray,I can guarandamntee you that her eyes would NOT be open…Her eyelids would be slammed shut like a virgins legs in a Manila whorehouse…
What do you do when the secret service tells you to do something? You say huh?
@ #14- You sir must a crusty old salt of the sea….Just saying.
I do have to admit, that picture of Dorli does remind me of a Japanese buccake photo…
#17 ROTFLMAO!
maybe she was filming a porno, and that was the after effects of the money shot.
“There she is officer the one with the blue hair. Last time she saw forty was 1840, take her away!”-Al Bundy
Good point, Jonn…Now stop doing it, would ya? ha!
Well, look at it this way. It’s not what you were doing that was at issue. It’s what you might have done. Thus, if you had been doing what the Secret Service told you to stop doing, you would have stopped doing it, true? Ummm. Okay, well how about we call it a pre-emptive verbal instruction that was inartfully articulated by the issuer and then have a second bowl of Cap’N Crunch?
Doesn’t matter if you’re 4 or 84…play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
I agree with #14, having been the victim of pepper spray many times – intended and unintended. Those rheumy old eyes would be locked shut if she had been sprayed. Looks more like someone dumped a glass of milk on her face.
I want be held up by a couple friends while milk is poured all over my face. Maybe I could start a craze like planking or owling….
Agree with #14 & #25: this is street theatre for idiots.
So Bush wrecked the economy, the effects of which we’re still feeling, the housing market is still tanking, millions are out of work and, manufacturing jobs have fled, the financial guys have accomplished the greatest transfer of wealth in history, and you are preoccupied with the personal hygiene of a bunch of protesters. What’s up with frat boy preoccupation with bodily functions and juvenille sexual fetishes over barely legal women?
I do believe that woman is well past ‘barely legal’.
“is a haunting, cinematic image of brutality…may become the defining one of Occupy unrest”
That’s MSM wishful thinking. I’m pretty sure the pic of the filthy hippy crapping on the cop car will be remembered long after this one.
Joe–here’s a little quote from your hero to tide you over:
“I will be held accountable,” Obama said. “I’ve got four years and … A year form now, I think people are going to see that we’re starting to make some progress, but there’s still going to be some pain out there … If I don’t have this done in three years, then there’s going to be a one-term proposition.”
–BHO, February 2009. How’d that work out for ya, Joe? Still don’t mind the smell of the dogshit going up your nose, m’boy? Like I said, even the stupidest dogs learn eventually, but you never will.
I lost faith in him about 2 years ago.
And yet like a good little lapdog, you’ll still pull the lever for him next year. Good boy.
Now roll over and beg, Joe!
@28
Joe – Do you mean people should ignore the nasty, horrible (and in some cases illegal) things going on in the OWS movements? No…it can’t be that. Perhaps you mean people outside the OWS movement should be the ones focusing on solutions to the country’s economic woes? Yes, that has to be it. I mean OWS has no fucking clue what they’re doing and they reject the basic concepts of problem solving or team forming. I’ll get started by reading “Basic Economics” by Thomas Sowell, take some night classes on economics, finance, etc; and try to get something started. I mean it might not be as effective as shitting in the streets, beating drums, endless chanting or spreading scabies…but I can leave that part to the OWS members. GO TEAM!
