Chanting “The whole world is watching!” the Occupy DC protesters tried to storm the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum today. They pinned a guard against the wall. The mob forced the museum to shut its doors early.
Hey, didn’t we see the tea party do this sorta thing too? NBC Washington reported on the violent mob outing.
According to Smithsonian spokesperson Linda St. Thomas, a crowd of “about 100 to 200 people” tried to enter through the museum’s Mall entrance.
“They were carrying signs and a lot of protest materials,” St. Thomas said in a statement. “You cannot bring that stuff into the museum under any circumstances.”
According to St. Thomas, the crowd tried to shove its way into the museum after being denied entry by security.
“One security guard was grabbed and pinned against the wall. He could not extract himself,” the spokesperson said. “Another security guard came over to help him and ended up pepper-spraying one person.”
Videos quickly circulated online showing Smithsonian security telling protesters to “get back” while protesters and bystanders covered their faces to shield themselves from the pepper spray. At least one person was seen writhing on the ground in apparent agony.
“Obama asked for this kind of protest, he supports it, and expressed solidarity with them”
And Nancy Pelosi God blessed them. The destruction of this country is precisely why the “sleeper” was placed in office. He is an ongoing human terrorist attack.
I'm not sure, but reportedly they're testing shark repellant.
Ground-writhing will be all the MSM will show and these Marxists know it. Theater as you say! Occupying and even burning public buildings are likely planned events.
Local news interviewed one of the freaks and that was his reason for attacking the museum.
But don’t you SEE, man? It’s like the AIR AND SPACE MUSEUM, man! They’re killing the planet and oppressing the poor and enriching Halliburton, man! Don’t you GET IT, man?
Thanks sharing this!
What these occupiers don’t understand or will admit is there are anarchist agent provocateurs in their ranks who would love nothing more than to tear up those museums purely for trophies or wanton destruction. And they are in every occupation group.
Protests attract them like flies because they rely on groupthink and anonymity to conduct their criminal activities.
If these ingrates don’t get a clue soon, this will end in serious bloodshed.
You’re right!
