The students want legitimacy.
They want to use a moment like this as victim status. They want to ramp up the motions of the people and make them give second thought to their treatment and their position.
If violence breaks out, you must know that the White House relishes it.
If you give too much weight to this incident, people will start to identify with “those poor kids”, instead of remembering that they aren’t simply kids or pepper spray victims.
They are useful idiots being used by the Marxists.
EDIT motions=emotions
Correct! And the cops just gave these kids what they wanted on a silver platter made for TV and a few more news cycles.
Again - what the cops did was DUMB DUMB DUMB both from a public perception point of view as well as realistic point of view since they are giving these kids EXCATLY what they want.
Smart way to deal with this would be lock the doors to the bathroom, unleash a bunch of roaches and spiders near these idiots, etc and watch them disburse in minutes.
You are absolutely right!
That is why their claim to be the 99% is valid - only in a way they don't mean.
The truth is that 99% of them are useful idiots of one sort or another. They blindly fall in line for the 1% who have designed the "Occupy" strategy, financed it, hired the key people to seed and organize the local movements, and tested the 99% to see how easily they could be herded.
Then like moths to a flame the 99% gathered; some for fun, some out of anger, some for the sex, some to be part of a "happening" and some just to get out of mom's basement for a while.
The people with money and power have now tested their template, strategy and tactics and found out what they wanted to know about attracting and herding the useful idiots. They will now let the movement die down for the winter and start it up once again next spring whan the republican campaign starts to accelerate.
