Nothing would make me happier than seeing Occupiers rampaging in the streets of Chicago only six months before the November elections.

(CNS News) — Adbusters, the radical, Vancouver-based anti-consumerist magazine, credited by many media outlets for launching the Occupy Wall Street protests, has put out an ad calling for 50,000 protestors to “Occupy” the G8 summit in May. And they are not calling for peaceful protest.

The Adbusters ad shows a picture of policemen beating up a defenseless protestor, and comes with the caption: “In the Tradition of the Chicago 8.” The Chicago 8 were radicals who incited riots in Chicago during the 1968 Democratic convention. The 1968 convention unrest became so legendary that the band Crosby, Stills, Nash (and Young) wrote a song about it called “Chicago.” The “tradition” of the Chicago 8 included calling for displays of public fornication and attacking police.

Yeah, now that the Democrats admit ownership of the OWS, it is apparent OWS voted Democrat 2008 and got what they wanted, and now OWS is bellyaching about their choice. They are not interested in improving the economy, OWS want more Democrat control over having to follow the US Constitution.
