DiManno: Beneath the legal veneer about the right to protest, the park squatters are bullies



As a downtown loft-dweller, I don’t have a backyard. No patio, no terrace, not even a tiny Juliet balcony.
St. James Park, a block away, is my backyard. And I’ve wanted it back for a while now. I have faith that Justice David Brown will force that to happen — with a reasonable accommodation for Occupy Toronto participants — when he releases his decision Monday morning on lifting the temporary injunction that halted the city from evicting dug-in trespassers.
For those who ask why this Camp Whinge has become all about a park when the issues that the worldwide 99 per cent movement have spotlighted are so much more profound, I would counter: How would you like the protesters planting their tent pegs, with no exit date, on your front lawn in the Beaches or the Annex or suburban Scarborough? How’d you like your kids to play in the dump that St. James has become?

I find it very funny, and quite ironic, that you keep touting the greatness of a person, whom for all intents and purposes, is the caricature of your neoKKKon.
JT is alleged by his critics to be a white supremacist -- if this was true he would not be a neoKKKon. Be that as it may, he spoke on that video with great sympathy towards Mexicans who are victims of the drug war in that country. Furthermore, as he plainly says, his back is to the protesters and his weapon is facing the cops because he knows who the real peace makers and who the real menaces are. If he was a neoKKKon he would turn around and speak menacingly about the protesters and their efforts.

If OWS is a failure, it is so in one respect: it failed to exercise its Second Amendment rights especially here:

The Associated Press: Was Calif. police use of pepper spray justified?


Too bad JT wasn't there to put a stop to that government tyranny.

JT's predecessors in the Sons of Liberty kick the sh1t of the government agent and prepare the hanging tree for the turncoat:

Obama Interrupted by Hecklers [© AssociatedPress]



Raw Video: Obama Interrupted by Hecklers [© AssociatedPress] - YouTube






Hecklers apparently connected with the Occupy Wall Street movement interrupted President Obama’s speech Tuesday at a high school in Manchester, N.H.
The president had just begun his remarks, urging Congress to expand a payroll tax cut, when a protester in the crowd shouted “mic check!” Mr. Obama stopped speaking as other protesters shouted in unison, “Mr. President — over 4,000 peaceful protesters — have been arrested.” The call-and-response tactic has been used by Occupy protesters in other locations around the country.

Obama to Occupy Wall St. Protesters: "You are the reason I ran for office." Bitch please...:lol:



President Obama hugs an increasingly unpopular, vulgar, and lawless movement. The Hill reports that after President Obama was heckled by protesters at an event in New Hampshire, he said:
“I appreciate you guys making your point; let me go ahead and make mine,” Obama said before continuing his speech. “I'll listen to you, you listen to me, OK?”
A few minutes later, Obama acknowledged the Occupy protest movement again, saying: “You are the reason I ran for office.”
Matthew Continetti writes on the Occupy movement in this week's issue of THE WEEKLY STANDARD: "Anarchy in the U.S.A."

I do love all the supporters of rights and freedoms who are upset by the vulgar protestors.

You do realize that your attitude was what the Revolutionaries fought against back in the 1770s, don't you?

Newt Gingrich - founder of OWS movement in 2002:

Newt Gingrich Sounded Like Occupy Wall Street In 2002: 'Very Happy To Get Corporations Out Of Politics'


Newt Gingrich Sounded Like Occupy Wall Street In 2002: 'Very Happy To Get Corporations Out Of Politics'

"You had better be siding with the people enough that the people don't get so angry they take you apart, because in the end in this country, if you are deviant enough from the people, they will take you apart, and in the end, that's where the power ultimately lies." That statement sounds like something that would come out of the mouth of an Occupy Wall Street protester. In fact, it was made by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Feb. 21, 2002, during a debate with political activist and former presidential candidate Ralph Nader.
Gingrich was arguing that the wealthiest Americans cannot be plutocrats -- that is, people who are "unchallengeable" because of their resources -- because ultimately, the sentiments of the majority of Americans will win out.
He also said he thinks corporations have too much power, which is another complaint frequently heard at the Occupy protests.
"I'm very happy to get corporations out of politics," he said.
