he Occupy Wall Street volunteer kitchen staff launched a “counter” revolution yesterday -- because they’re angry about working 18-hour days to provide food for “professional homeless” people and ex-cons masquerading as protesters.
For three days beginning tomorrow, the cooks will serve only brown rice and other spartan grub instead of the usual menu of organic chicken and vegetables, spaghetti bolognese, and roasted beet and sheep’s-milk-cheese salad.
They will also provide directions to local soup kitchens for the vagrants, criminals and other freeloaders who have been descending on Zuccotti Park in increasing numbers every day.

If you feed them, they will come.
These homeless and vagrant types are part of the 99%. Are the protesters bigoted against the homeless, who after all, are the victims of capitalism?????
And aren’t we supposed to be liberal and non-judgemental about who shows up? How can these protesters be such elitists about a pecking order in a protest movement, when said protest movement is all about “equality” among other things???????
Fixing food for freeloaders? LOL!! We have looked for the freeloaders and the freeloaders are us. Classic proglodyte intellect.
How do they distinguish them from the others. To me they all look alike - and don't call me a rasist;)
But the cause of Leftism is to provide for all the freeloaders! I don’t see a problem here so why do they?
Gotta love the comments on the NYTimes article.
They are pointing out the hypocrisy of the protesters.
The protesters want free everything but don’t want those who need food and shelter the most (homeless, excons) to share what they have.
They are all about illegals and open borders but don’t want those who are not protesters to be there.
The cooks are saying they feel overworked and underappreciated.
Kind of like us taxpayers?
elitists
How do they tell one another apart?
They will serve only brown rice? Racist bastards.
Let me get this straight. The OWSers are protesting because the have so little and the fat cats on Wall Street have so much, yet they (the OWSers) are protesting because others that have even less than they do want some food to eat and a tent to sleep in. It gets worse! The OWSers did not work to earn the funds used to buy the food. It was donated. They don’t even want to perform the labor to help the homeless in their midst. Imagine that.
Now they may be learning how those who get up and go to work everyday feel about the government taking the results of their labor and giving it to others that do not work. If they have to continue to feed the homeless, perhaps they will come to understand that they have the Constitution on their side for nowhere in the document does it say that the federal government has the authority to take from one citizen and give to another.
It is amusing to see these political illiterates rediscovering, in microcosm, all the reasons that communes and socialist societies have failed over the centuries!
Precisely! Well said.
Reality bites :-)
It’s almost like a voluntary mugging!
“...For three days beginning tomorrow, the cooks will serve only brown rice and other spartan grub instead of the usual menu of organic chicken and vegetables, spaghetti bolognese, and roasted beet and sheep’s-milk-cheese salad...”
You just cannot make this stuff up. I’m beginning to think that even Khadaffi-duck (or whatever) had more worth then the worthless population of occupiers.
Tired of freeloaders-—Sounds like the 53%!!
I love it! Parasites undergoing parasitation by parasites.
