Occupy Wall Street protesters said yesterday that packs of brazen crooks within their ranks have been robbing their fellow demonstrators blind, making off with pricey cameras, phones and laptops -- and even a hefty bundle of donated cash and food.
“Stealing is our biggest problem at the moment,” said Nan Terrie, 18, a kitchen and legal-team volunteer from Fort Lauderdale.
“I had my Mac stolen -- that was like $5,500. Every night, something else is gone. Last night, our entire [kitchen] budget for the day was stolen, so the first thing I had to do was . . . get the message out to our supporters that we needed food!”

I wonder if they will be told to not share these stories? They wouldn’t want Obama’s people cast in a bad light.
A $5,500 Mac? My God, it must be awful to be so poor and downtrodden by the Man.
I had my Mac stolen — that was like $5,500
LOL
They took from those who had [you] and gave to those who did not [themselves]
Exactly what you are there protesting FOR!
Maybe somewhere in that leftist morass of bullsh1t and muck in your head, the POINT might jab your sorry butt a couple times...
to each, according to his ability to steal...
Meanwhile in my conservative little town, rich and poor live side by side and nobody locks their doors.
$5500 Mac and they are against capitalism and want all their debt forgiven? Maybe they would not be in debt if they didn’t have so many high priced high-tech toys! More irony and hypocrisy from this bunch.
Well, they say that a conservative is just a liberal who’s been raped (or in this case - robbed).
Welcome to the real world children.
>> “I had my Mac stolen — that was like $5,500”
She has a MAC??!? Damn trust fund baby has a brand new fifty-five-hunnert dollar MAC?
*I* don’t have a Mac! There are none of us more equal than any of the others of us, yet SOME of us have $5500 Macs and some of me don’t! I DEMAND a Mac! This laptop gap sucks. Right after my nap, I’m going down to occupy the Apple store. Provided the mail has been delivered by then — I think my food stamps may be coming today.
To think that is $5,500 that they could have used to pay down student loan debt....
They could have gotten a used of budget laptop for 1,000 and used the remaining 4,500 to pay off debt....
CLUELESS MORONS all of them!!!!
I got a kick out of this snippet:
. . .so the first thing I had to do was . . . get the message out to our supporters that we needed food!”
Isn't that the always the first concern of hippie trash? Not stopping the thefts, not improving security, but getting more donations to cover them.
>> to each, according to his ability to steal...
heh
Greedy thieves stealing from greedy occupiers protesting greedy bankers.
An 18 year old that's giving the protestors legal advice. BWHAHAHA. Oh well, if only there was a big building where people could keep their money safe (snicker)
I think it may have been Bush who did it....after all, he is solely responsible for every other “bad” thing that has happened to the USA.....ROFLMAO....
Laptops? pricy cameras, phones? Cash? What's all this capitalism doing at a commie rally?
The brazen crooks are just there to enforce the ideals of this group. From those according to their ability to those according to their need. I need a camera, you have the ability to provide me one...
>> Wait, how can the reporter tell them apart?
The thieves are the ones with the laptops and cameras.
Kumbaya, man.
