Occupy Denver ^ | 12-11-11 | trteamer

Posted on 12/11/2011 3:59:46 PM PST by Trteamer

In response to rumors, lies, and hearsay that have circulated regarding the 12/12 Walmart Action, we, as the General Assembly of Occupy Denver and the planners of the action in Loveland, hereby reaffirm that the 12/12 Action is and has always been a non-violent action, and that we do not and have never condoned or sanctioned violence of any kind or the destruction of property.......

Considering the coordinated attacks on the Occupations and attacks on workers:

Occupy Denver stands in solidarity with our brothers and sisters who will be protesting the abuses of the economic apparatus of the 1% on Dec 12.

The wanton pursuit of profit at the expense of human values by multinational corporations with no local grounding has destroyed communities throughout the world, disregarded workers’ natural rights, eliminated production jobs in the United States and sweatshops abroad, and lowered the standard of living for all, only to enrich the wealthy by manipulating the laws and base corruption. At the same time, coordinated nationwide police attacks have turned our cities into battlegrounds in an effort to disrupt our Occupy movement, which is protesting this state of affairs while our politicians are neglecting the very serious issues we are raising.

We call on every occupation to organize a mass mobilization on December 12 in support of the actions taken across the US, especially those on the West Coast against Goldman Sachs and other bankers.

On 12/12 Occupy Denver will be rallying at the Walmart Distribution Center, 7500 Crossroads Boulevard, Loveland, Colorado, in order to illustrate the problems with a globalization solely based on the interests of multi-national corporations and total disregard for human values or human beings.

Guess they’ll leave another 75 carts full of merchandise and melting ice cream for the employees to restock like they did last time.

Rubber bullets, tasers, night sticks and high-pressure water cannons.

Let’s see how brave these spoiled bratty Leftists really are.

Of course these Occupiers will be violent. It’s the nature of their beast.

Deprive people of their jobs and turn them into revolutionaries. It worked for Pol Pot.

At a distribution center, they will be holding up truck drivers. Hmm I think a bit of fifth wheel grease would work. Would love to monitor cb traffic there. Just try taking a dump on someones rig. Tire thumper alert.

Humorously, Walmart is exactly what these socialists imagine that a state run store would be like in their mind's-eye utopia. Walmart’s great sin, is that it exists outside of their purview.

The 1% who call themselves the 99% have an ass-kicking coming, sooner rather than later.

Trust fund babies don't understand people who can't afford to shop at Bloomingdales - or 'in' enough to search local thrift shops - whichever is coolest at the moment...

I'll bet most of them have never been inside a Walmart.

I guess Denver doesn’t have any ports to blockade tomorrow, so Walmart will have to do...

Dolts.

disregarded workers’ natural rights

Natural rights? I can just see the more doctrinaire lefties cringing when they read this. Who does he think he his, John Locke? Get this comrade to a gulag for reprogramming, stat!

Notice that these lemmings won’t dare protest a Target distribution center.

Hmmmm.... distribution center. Interesting.

What do you find at distribution centers? Trucks. What’s inside trucks? Truck drivers. Sleepy, irritable, long-suffering drivers with sore backs and schedules.

I wonder what they might have to say to a bunch of pampered, mommy-dear type protesters that make up the “occupier” crowd.

That could get messy.
