It’s a ploy by the Obamunists and their Green Shirts to keep the Tea Party off the streets during this election cycle.
Lets take a moment to compare and contrast the difference from these “protesters” and the Tea Party assemblies.
Tea Party - Thousands gather at the washington monument mall in DC. No Arrests, very little mess to clean up, children present, no violence.
This Group - Zhitting on police cars, sex in public, drug use, violence, hundreds of arrests.
Tea Party message - Stop government spending, reduce the size of government, stop over govmnt regulation, cede more power back to the states.
This Group - .....I’m not sure...Tax the rich (punish them?), down with the corporations? Throw rich people in jail? ...I just do not know what action they are trying to influence.
Not until police cars and store fronts are burning and I dont they have the ballz to do it.
When no one pays attention to the demands thier not sure off, the financial backers, planners and supporters the ones supplying drugs, payouts, food, condoms will bring in the crew who will start the trouble and do the damage
Does Anyone Take ‘Occupy Wall Street’ Seriously?
Yeah. The sanitation workers that will need to clean up after these slobs.
No one takes these clowns seriously. The visuals coming out of these rallies are embarrassing and they don’t even have a message. Most people have figured out that all this is amounts to college grab @$$.
Yes I take the movement seriously. It was just a scant three years ago that the Tea Party was dismissed by many in the convervative radio ranks and the media. Now we are here to stay.
What’s scary about this movement is the media backing. Most people don’t pay attention to the details. All they see are lots of people and they hear the sad stories. those tug on the heart. It could make a difference in November 2012. How many of us know someone who has lost a job? Or have lost a job.
I don’t like this group at all. I think we would be foolish to dismiss them. If I recall history a party called the Nazis started this way.
They do.
Tea Party - A mixture of all economic strata, races and religions. Families, employed people taking vacation time off to protest an excess of taxes.
Occupiers - Unemployed and Elitist students from the most expensive schools in the area; all getting money from someone else who is forced to work.
Tea Party - No Obamacare, lower taxes, more freedom to allow American’s to excell, espouse personal responsibility and self-determination.
Occupiers - ? Drugs, filth, sex in the streets, Confiscate and enslave the achievers, destroy the Consitution, Chaos and Arnachy.
Without outside support, the Occupiers would die of exposure and starvation; either as a protester, or as a human. Unemployed and possibly unemployable; feeling of complete entitlement.
Bunch of lazy, government money sucking old hippies & their lazy kids!
“”What do we want? We’re not really sure! When do we want it? Now!”
I think it’s more “What do” “What do” “We Want?” “We want?” “We’re not” “We’re not” . . . Now everyone wiggle your fingers in the air. Everyone then feels better because that was direct democracy.
Living in California and watching Jerry Brown screw the state over (and over), it is refreshing to see the same losers trying to screw over New York.
Anyone Freep been to Zuchinni Park (or whatever it is called)?
JImmy Kimmel has already done this once and aired it:

“Is anyone following the “Occupy Wall Street” protests and, if they are, taking them seriously?”
Go over to zerohedge.com. Kind of a crazy site with a serious message. Articles from zerohedge frequently get posted and discussed here on FR. Normally, zerohedge has a modicum of anti-wall-street type who haven’t figured out the fundamental problem with wall-street is the government. But overall, good market and economic analysis—probably most folks there are Austrian school.
In the past two days, it has been flooded with people supporting the protestors. Maybe it has been a flooding campaign by the protestors because zerohedge is so contemptuous, normally, of wall street.
Exactly! And why are ALL the talk radio hacks leading with the same talking points about "dirty, smelly kids who never work!"
Who cares?
Just the little old ladies who buy adjustable beds, Factor Gear, and write checks to those brave Republicans like that handsome Mr. Romney.
The Bill of Rights is dead. We're in perpetual war with new ones on the way. We're in a depression. Nobody cares about that. But, those hippie punks are the threat! I swear, if Obama mows them down with tanks, he'll win 70%-30%!
The protesters are taking it seriously. Reportedly $300 - $650 per week for protesting. Government dollars at work.
These deadbeats are going to get tired of being ignored and will start burning and looting - just don’t know how long it’s going to take for them to get to that point. Plus, what the heck are they going to do when winter hits?
The DBM.
All conservatives should take these unwashed masses seriously and do their best to associate them with the democrat party. They present a refreshing honesty in terms of what they think and what they want that you often don’t see in the official focus group statements. They are “Obama off his teleprompter” times 10!
