Violence Breaks Out During ‘Occupy Wall Street’ March Toward New York Stock Exchange
CBS LOCAL NEWS (New York City) ^ | October 14, 2011

Posted on 10/14/2011 6:56:34 AM PDT by ETL

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Just a few hours after protesters learned they’d be able to stay in Zuccotti Park indefinitely, violence broke out as a group marched away from it.

Protesters, apparently jubilant over being able to stay in the park after their furious cleanup efforts, took their brooms, flags and signs and started fanning out at around 7:30 a.m.

1010 WINS’ Steve Sandberg reported the protesters were saying things to the effect that now that they’d cleaned up the park, they were going to clean up Wall Street.

A group of protesters headed south on Broadway toward the New York Stock Exchange, carrying their brooms. Police were taken off-guard, Sandberg reported. The group swelled quickly and wound up in a confrontation with police as they tried to gain access to Wall Street. The standoff occurred near Bowling Green as they turned left on Beaver Street.

Police urged protesters to stay out of the street and stay on the sidewalk.

I just heard an ABC radio news report regarding the postponed fleabagger cleanup, and by the shouting and celebratory tone of the reporter you would have thought that we just put a manned space vehicle on another planet.

These jerks are breaking the law and causing trouble.

And all we’re going to hear from the press is “police brutality”.

Funny - the police were the brothers with the struggle in Wisconsin (since the cops are all union.)

Now they’re tools of the oppressor.

It’s funny because New York is a big blue city in a big blue state - but it’s going to be people like me being blamed at the end of the day. :(

If they want Kent State, so help me, these anarchists and Communists are going to get it.

I'd sure have some fun at these morons' expense before resorting to lethal force. A field test of the "Brown Note" riot-control weapon would do, for starters.

The group swelled quickly and wound up in a confrontation with police as they tried to gain access to Wall Street. The final line in phase 1 of the OWS plan: "police misconduct/violence draws attention and wins sympathy". On to phase two.

I love Steppenwolfs’ “Born to be Wild” but I bet if I heard it 24/7 at 120db I would leave the area, pronto!

Remind people how Oboma started this with his class warfare propaganda. Remember, community agitation is the only thing he’s good at, and these are Oboma supporters.

Just read that our cretin politicians such as Nadler, and Scott Stinger, as well as city council members who are sympathetic to the unwashed, made threatening phone calls to Brookfield Properties. However, BLOOMBERG IS NOT OFF THE HOOK. He is the one who stated that, “after the park was washed,” they could stay “indefinitely”. Great leadership!

A lot of cops, at least many I've talked to here in New York, don't have a clue about the people behind these things (ie, commie organized events such as the "anti-war" and pro-illegal immigrant rallies). I suspect the same is true for many in the military as well, especially the young guys and gals. In other words, they too can be duped and manipulated into supporting self-destructive leftist bullcrap like this.

I had an anarcho-syndicalist professor in college. It was obvious he had not spent one day in his life outside academia. He was all about “Workers controlling the means of production.” I, on the other hand, had just spent the summer working commercial construction to pay my way for college. I knew from personal experience at Rome Builders that if you turned the “means of production” over the workers, three things were going to happen:

1. The building wasn’t going to get built;
2. Because the “Workers Committee” was going to wind up in the parking lot with a keg of beer and bucket of chicken, and;
3. The “means of production” consisting of the company tools were going home with the workers that evening and were not going to be returned.

My professor wound up being the Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences. I have ceased any donations to the school.

All this nonsense because one very bad president is about to lose his reelection. Pathetic.

Thought she looked awful, still do when she wore that dress and those colors but now you have pointed out how she had her kids dressed and why she had the clenched fist and the black and red then it does make sense why they are all dressed in those colors.

Now we know what the E-Mail was about, going full violence to take down the financial system and Obama embraces it.

Obama Espoused Radical [COMMUNIST REVOLUTIONARY] Views in College
Steve Malzberg - WOR News Talk Radio 710 ^ | February 12, 2010 | Ronald Kessler
Dr. John C. Drew, a grant writing consultant in Laguna Niguel, Calif., tells Newsmax he met Obama in 1980 when Obama was a sophomore at Occidental College in Los Angeles. Drew had just graduated from Occidental and was attending graduate school at Cornell University.

During Christmas break, Drew says he was at Grauman-Boss’ home in Palo Alto when Obama came over with Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, his roommate from Pakistan.

“Barack [Obama] and Hasan showed up at the house in a BMW, and then we went to a restaurant together,” Drew says. “We had a nice meal, and then we came back to the house and smoked cigarettes and drank and argued politics.”

For the next several hours, they discussed Marxism.

He [Obama] was arguing a straightforward Marxist-Leninist class-struggle point of view, which anticipated that there would be a revolution of the working class, led by revolutionaries, who would overthrow the capitalist system and institute a new socialist government that would redistribute the wealth,” says Drew, who says he himself was then a Marxist.

The idea was basically that wealthy people were exploiting others,” Drew says. “That this was the secret of their wealth, that they weren’t paying others enough for their work, and they were using and taking advantage of other people. He was convinced that a revolution would take place, and it would be a good thing.”

Drew concluded that Obama thought of himself as “part of an intelligent, radical vanguard that was leading the way towards this revolution and towards this new society.” ..."

Referring to Obama’s quote from “Dreams of My Father” that he associated with Marxist professors, Drew says, “What he’s not saying is that he was in 100 percent total agreement with those Marxist professors. When you understand that, Obama’s later associations and policies make more sense, including why he was taken in by Rev. Wright’s ideology.”

In a somewhat saner world, it’d be time to deploy the agent provacateurs and start working to get these malcontents infighting, splintering and doing really bad PR moves that would make pooping on the police car look tame.

How bad can it hurt to get your foot run over by a motorcycle? My dad ran over my foot with a semi when I was about 12 and I don’t remember it being that big of a deal- hurt yes, writhing falling down pain, nope. What a wuss.

Not really. Communists have always looked for an opportunity or 'excuse' to launch their revolution. Been going on for decades, long before Obama. Nothing too much new here.

From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party (revcom.us or rwor.org) :

"Create Public Opinion, Seize Power: We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning.

And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle.":

The 1992 LA/Rodney King riots were instigated by the Revolutionary Communist Party...

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"
