  • Judge: Occupy tents are Free Speech

    Jason sends us a link from the Boise Guardian which reports a US District Court judge declared that tents are free speech, and if there are no tents, the Occupy movement is rendered pointless;

    Winmill found the new state law “only prohibits ‘sleeping’ and ‘camping’ on state grounds and does not purport to ban the maintenance of a symbolic tent city which could be staffed 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Yet Gov. Otter’s letter announcing his signing of the legislation appears to require the removal of all tents, and that appears to be how the State Police are interpreting the law. Such action is simply not authorized by the statute.”

    The judge also said, “Because the reach of the State’s enforcement may exceed the grasp of the statute, this creates the appearance that the state is stretching to suppress the core political message of Occupy Boise – its tents – as presented in a public forum. These circumstances render the State’s enforcement policy of removing Occupy Boise’s tents presumptively invalid under the 1st Amendment.”

    In describing Otter’s eviction order for Occupy Boise, Winmill wrote, “Governor Otter’s edict, and the stated intention of the State Police, is to remove Occupy Boise entirely – tents and all. … This creates the appearance that the State is stretching to shut down a political message – a tent city – presented in a public forum.”

    I guess no one has thought for a moment that the Occupy movement is pointless with or without their symbolic tents. And since everything seems to be free speech these days, the first hippie to get his lights punched out as an expression of free speech had better be prepared to except the judge’s ruling.

  • Changing the world, one urine bomb at a time

    Old Trooper sends a link to a brief article at Fox31 Denver which reports that the Denver Occupiers staged a “F*** the Police” march in the Mile-High City Saturday Night. What could be confrontational about that name, right? Who would have thought that a “F*** the Police” march would get out of control, huh?

    Gather.com reports that it didn’t take long for the masked hippies to begin misbehaving despite the lovely name of their protest.

    The march started peacefully, as protesters started walking at 7:30. However, things started turning ugly when embedded reporter Marshall Zalinger from 7News saw protestors lighting fireworks and tagging vehicles with the anarchist logo, a circle “A”. DenverPost.com reports that the protesters chanted obscenities about police and “threw urine-filled water balloons and marked up a public bus, a police car, and numerous other vehicles.” After five people were seen tagging, the police arrested them without incident. Not surprisingly, this behavior has yet to be denounced. Also not surprisingly, the mainstream media has not been reporting this story.

    Funny how the people who complain that the government doesn’t spend enough money on them, are destroying government property that has to be replaced with more tax dollars. Where are these peckerwoods’ parents? The uncivil behavior of the hippies in the early 70s ended when the police and private citizens took a stand and started bashing the heads of these petty criminals. The incident at Kent State went a long ways towards taking the wind out of their sails. I’m not saying the police should open fire on the hippies, but their “catch and release” policies ain’t working. Treating the little spoiled brats with kid gloves only encourages them.

    If the police were throwing urine bombs at the protesters, they’d be screaming bloody murder.

  • Hippie threatens gun play

    The other day, USAToday dared to run an opinion piece that declared the Occupy movement had disappeared with a wimper;

    the Occupiers chose a course best described as doing nothing. They did nothing day after day, week after week, under the mistaken belief that camping in public plazas would prompt some kind of action from others.

    Eventually it did, as patient-but-fed-up city governments moved to dismantle the encampments amid concerns about public safety and sanitation.

    Well, some hippie named Rich Latta, not surprisingly from Austin took exception to the characterization.

    Your piece accuses the protesters of sitting around and doing nothing. So maybe they should take up their Second Amendment-sanctioned guns and storm Wall Street and our nation’s capitals. If our country doesn’t change, it could very well come to that one day.

    According to other sources on the internet, Rich Latta is a massage therapist by trade, so pardon me if I’m not particularly worried about a massage therapist who threatens gun violence. Especially when you realize that he’s talking about other people perpetrating that gun violence and not his stick-boy body.

    The Daily Caller‘s Jim Treacher writes;

    Wow. Just imagine how Janet Napolitano would react if a “right-wing extremist” talked about “storming Wall Street and our nation’s capitals” with guns. Everybody freaked out when Tea Partiers brought registered weapons to rallies. MSNBC even tried to (literally) frame a black guy as a gun-toting white racist.

    But an Occupier publishes a letter in a national newspaper about “storming Wall Street” with guns, and I don’t find out about it until a week later. It’s not seen as a credible threat, despite the fact that Occupy’s rap sheet dwarfs that of the Tea Party. Rich Latta of Austin, TX isn’t being investigated for his threat, because it isn’t politically convenient.

    Well, and no one is particularly worried about a message therapist who threatens that someday him and his fellow hippies might actually do anything besides bitch and whine.

    Thanks to Old Trooper for one of those links.

  • Police too “occupied” to respond; man murdered

    CBS San Francisco reports that police were getting ready for hippies crossing into Berkeley from Oakland when a 9-1-1 call about a trespasser came into the station so they didn’t give it a priority.

    Peter Cukor, 67, had been beaten to death with a flower pot. The suspect, 23-year-old Daniel Dewitt, was taken into custody and will be arraigned on Wednesday.

    His mother Candy said it’s a tragedy.

    “Our hearts go out to the other family. It breaks my heart. We’ve all lost in this,” she said.

    Beaten with a flowerpot after 67 years of law abiding life on the planet. I don’t necessarily blame the police, but I do blame the Occupy protesters who made the police lose focus on their community while the filthy hippie invaders came with their vacuous intellect and intent to disrupt that community.

    And Candy DeWitt, the perp’s mother…what did you lose? The guy was beaten to death with a flower pot and you compare your loss to that of Mr. Cukor? Seriously?

    Thanks to Old Trooper for the link.

  • Hippies’ drone shot down by pigeon hunters

    Somewhere in South Carolina, local hunters were planning on a day of pigeon hunting when they were thwarted by animal rights activists who threatened to film the activity with their drone aircraft. When the hunt was canceled, the hippies decided to launch their crude aircraft anyway. Then they got upset when pigeon hunters shot down their bird;

    “Seconds after it hit the air, numerous shots rang out,” Hindi said in the release. “As an act of revenge for us shutting down the pigeon slaughter, they had shot down our copter.”

    He claimed the shooters were “in tree cover” and “fled the scene on small motorized vehicles.”

    “It is important to note how dangerous this was, as they were shooting toward and into a well-travelled highway,” Hindi stated in the release. He said someone from SHARK called the Colleton County Sheriff’s Department, which took a report of the incident.

    The Colleton County Sheriff’s Department filed a malicious damage to property incident report.

    So, just to make sure I got this right, the hippies stopped some hunters from shooting things down from the skies, so they launched their thing that can fly in celebration and they’re upset that it got shot down? Seems to me it was inevitable. If they didn’t want their little toy shot down, they shouldn’t have launched it. I’d be tempted to shoot at it, too.

    You can watch the video here. Thanks to Marine_7002 for the link and the laugh.

  • Occupy CPAC

    We have several friends who attend the Conservative Political Action Conference every year, most notably, our buddy, the fetching Skye at Midnight Blue, so we’ll be paying particular attention when the “Occupiers” make their planned move against the CPAC gathering in DC. David Keene at the Washington Times writes;

    The Occupiers have some experience in disrupting conservative gatherings in the District. Last year, they furiously tried to close down a conference run by Americans for Prosperity and injured an elderly attendee in the process. This year, they are bragging that they are coming to CPAC prepared “to physically assault” speakers and, presumably, attendees.

    Press reports of their planning meetings reveal that they are preparing counterfeit credentials to get some of their people into the conference itself, and there is some reason to believe that their union allies may have moved early to reserve rooms for many of them in the main conference hotel.

    I actually feel sorry for any Occupier who tries to confront the tenacious Skye. They may leave the hotel with their genitalia packed in ice, in a small plastic bag.

  • Yeah, Black Bloc. That’s your problem

    TruthOut has an article by Chris Hedges complaining that the Anarchist group Black Bloc is giving the Occupy Wall Street clowns a bad name;

    The Black Bloc movement is infected with a deeply disturbing hypermasculinity. This hypermasculinity, I expect, is its primary appeal. It taps into the lust that lurks within us to destroy, not only things but human beings. It offers the godlike power that comes with mob violence. Marching as a uniformed mass, all dressed in black to become part of an anonymous bloc, faces covered, temporarily overcomes alienation, feelings of inadequacy, powerlessness and loneliness

    Funny, but of all of the pictures I’ve seen from OWS protesters confronting the police, crapping on police cars, crapping on sidewalks, throwing bricks at cops, defacing public and private property, none of them have been dressed in black. Like the picture above of Austin police trying to apprehend a female protester when they tossed out Occupy protesters in the Texas capital. Look at the people who are getting in the faces of police in the video of the cleanup in McPherson Square in DC this weekend. How many of them are wearing the black uniform of the Black Bloc?

    Um, none-to-few. The cancer in the occupy movement is the intellectual vacuum of the entire movement which attracts criminals and liars by the score. There’s something wrong with people who live among rats, vermin and filth.

  • Classy OWS protesters

    I wrote earlier in the weekend about the park police moving into McPherson Square on k Street in DC to remove the sleeping gear of protesters in order to help them conform to regulations forbidding them to sleep in the park. Well, it seems the peaceful hippie shits tried to escalate the situation by tossing bricks into the faces of the officers who were merely doing their jobs according to the Washington Post;

    There were tense moments. Late in the afternoon, a police officer was struck in the face by a thrown brick. A man was taken into custody in connection with the incident.

    In McPherson Square, where protesters once slept, ate hot meals and snuggled in friendly “cuddle puddles,” they can now stay overnight only if they stay awake, keeping only unfurnished tents for the purpose of a round-the-clock vigil, police said.

    Of course, some protesters complained that they weren’t being tear-gassed;

    “We’re being evicted without tear gas,” said Melissa Byrne, a protester from the District.

    Schlosser said that police had moved in to do temporary “nuisance abatement” and that cleaning crews had found health hazards that included filthy bedding, bottles full of urine and several dead rats.

    Yeah, I would be proud of myself if the police had to come in and clean up after me wearing Hazmat suits. This is what a police state looks like – taxpayer-funded housecleaning.
