Astroturf.

[JennysCool]

Wonder who he ripped off this design from?

Somebody needs to do a parody of the Obama poster where it’s a headshot of Andre the Giant and the word “PEANUT?”

[BradyLS]

I just want to know why the cops are powerless against those twiggy miscreants.

[wjcsux]

Didn’t Fairey do the original Zero poster?

[2ndDivisionVet]

Yes, yes he did. Which just goes to show you who is behind this “Occupy XXX” scheme.

[Ziva]

Doesn’t the woman in the poster look like Angela Davis?

[sbMKE]

Fairey stole the image from an AP photograph and was sued for the theft.

[FlingWingFlyer]

My first thought also. I’ve got a feeling old Shemp is going to get sued again.

Angela Davis. Circa 1970.

[Dagnabitt]

Didn’t she buy guns used in a robbery and murder?

On August 7, 1970 Jonathan Jackson, a heavily armed, seventeen year old African American high school student gained control over a courtroom in Marin County, California. Once in the courtroom, Jackson armed the black defendants and took Judge Harold Haley, the prosecutor, and three female jurors as hostages.[16][17]

As Jackson transported the hostages and two black convicts away from the courtroom, the police began shooting at the vehicle. The judge, one of the jurors, the prosecutor, and the three black men were killed in the melee. Davis had purchased the firearms used in the attack, including the shotgun used to kill Haley, which had been purchased two days prior and sawed-off.[17] She had also written numerous letters found in the prison cell of one of the murderers.

[Dagnabitt]

Killing judges and LEOs - a quick route to leftist stardom.

Davis is currently a Distinguished Professor in the Women’s and Gender Studies Department at Syracuse University.

Davis is currently a Distinguished Professor in the Women’s and Gender Studies Department at Syracuse University.

Oho, so she's the one handing out the useless degrees the OWS 99-percenters are going $80,000 into debt for and can't find jobs afterwards.

exerpt:

The political messages in Fairey's art are:
1) Communist dictators are god-like supermen
2) The United States is a police state at home and an imperialist oppressor abroad
3) Capitalism is an evil system based on greed and exploitation
4) Ordinary Amerikkkan workers are guilty of blithely supporting an unjust system
5) The only good Americans are those who fight The System
6) The communist Peoples' Armies will soon triumph over Amerikkkan imperialism and bring peace to the world out of the barrel of a gun.

A Look at "Art for Obama" With Shepard Fairey

Also looks like Michele giving the black power fist salute at the election party. She was also wearing that red and black “black widow” dress. Black and red being the colors for the anarchists.

Most of these protests are white kids. I see they are trying to expand the market. Wasn’t it Charles Manson that was trying to the blacks involved in the 60’s protests?
