Even the MSM has had to report about OWS crime and violence. Yet the radio shows (no TV) I listen to that claim to be "non-partisan" never mentioned the Tea Party but regularly speak well of OWS, primarily through praise by guests.

To wall, street occupiers!

From an old Time back when it was a real news magazine -- but because you have to pay to read the whole article I will not provide the link.
"From the hoarse throats of 250,000 Cubans jammed before the presidential palace in Havana rose the chilling cry: 'Pa-re-don! To the wall! To the firing squad!' By whipping up a frenzy of hatred, Fidel Castro last week got mob approval for a resumption of the drumhead justice that earlier put to death 551 Cubans accused as supporters of ex-Dictator Fulgencio Batista. Now the blood purge would be aimed at defectors in the band of barbudos (bearded ones) who lifted him to power, of whom hundreds are now in prison." That is the Castro that I remember and his admirers here want to send fellow Americans "To the wall!"

Thanks for the excerpt. From that paragraph, I found a link with the five paragraphs that followed (though not the entire article). It continues...
"Castro's younger brother, Raul, was detailed to warm up the crowd before Fidel himself appeared."

time-demo.newscred.com (1959)

The very same brother who now inherits the throne and the leftwing MSM is trying to portray as the man who will humanize that bloodthirsty tyranny.
