Todays USA Today carries a letter from a member of Occupy Wall Street in response to that papers editorial, headlined Occupy movement fading out in a whimper. The letters author a self-employed massage therapist from Austin, Texas suggests that the movement should turn to violence, rendering their occupation a little more akin to those weve seen historically:
USA TODAYs editorial is right to say that Occupy might lack clear goals on how to move forward, but the movement has accomplished its main original goal: to protest these injustices, not by simply holding a rally and going home, but by keeping the rally going to underscore the seriousness of this problem. 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 nations capitals. If our country doesnt change, it could very well come to that one day.
The media responses to the tea party rallies and the Occupy movement could not be more different. When a black, law-abiding citizen who was complying with the law turned up to a healthcare town hall in Arizona, MSNBCs Contessa Brewer flew off the handle, seeing insurrection in the air: There are questions about whether this has racial overtones
white people showing up with guns, she said. (The man was actually black, but why let the facts get in the way of hysteria?) Her colleague, Toure, added, there is tremendous anger in this country about government, the way government seems to be taking over the country, anger about a black person being president
we see these hate groups rising up and this is definitely part of that. (This is definitely part of that?) The story was cycled hour after hour.

The hard left is far more dangerous than anyone in the Tea party could ever be.
Agreed, and this is a fact borne out in history.
There are a lot of folk on the right that are sick and tired of leftists and saying “bring it, let’s get this over with”.
Of course, such a war would be absolutely devastating and probably end up with all of us speaking Chinese.
Zactly.

Home grown terrorists created by Democratic Party and Obama Admin
Expect Emperor Obama from now on. There will be no election in November 2012.
Oh, there’ll be an election.
It just won’t be a real election..........
Right... but don’t YOU try it!
Heh, I remember that “occupy” thing. ...So last year.
City governments are probably still busy disinfecting the homeless encampments those weak “occupy” gaggles turned into.
Seems like something’s been rubbing that massage therapist the wrong way.
Badda-bing!;)
but but but... it would be theraputic violence....
eh...
//sarc
Glenn Beck talking about this now.
Obama said to take off the bedroom slippers and get active, and suddenly OWS appeared. Things are about to get interesting in Chicago in May with the May Day protest and G8 conference.....
It’ll be like Venezuela where if the opposition wins, their candiate will be arrested and charged with something so he is no longer able to hold office or the army will step in and they will rule as a junta.
He must be reading FR.
No wonder he seems schitzophrenic sometimes. heh.
OWS is a terrorist organization.
Deal with them as such, Janet Lesbitano.
To be fair, I was made aware of this BY Glenn Beck. I had to dig a little to find an article detailing this, but I was clued to the existence of this issue by GB.
