Break out the riot shields

The mob begins to grumble menacingly:

Hundreds of protesters gathered in Cesar Chavez Park on Thursday to stand in solidarity with the growing nationwide demonstrations aimed at corporate greed, but some members of the peaceful event showed hostility to media members over basic questions about the goals of the protest.

Groups of demonstrators gathered around television cameras periodically and tried to shout down reporters with accusations of manipulating coverage of the protest. Other isolated protesters tried to convince attendees to avoid speaking with the media altogether.


Told ya they'd turn hostile; violence will follow shortly. Spoiled children often throw tantrums when they don't get their way.

President Barack Obama referenced the nationwide demonstrations Thursday and called them a sign that voters are upset with Republican leadership...


He is such an amateur. The key to undermining the opposition, whether in politics or business, is subtlety. Mr Obama possesses all the subtlety and finesse of a Cape buffalo.

It seems all those years of "community organizing" didn't translate well into grown-up politics. Not surprising, since the most effective political technique in rabble-rousing is acrimonious oration against phantom injustices. No wonder he likes the 'Occupy' bubbleheads; they're his kinda people.

We have a “Occupy Fort Myers” now. I thought I saw the last of those retarded Guy Fawkes mask when I moved out of Seattle. Say what you want about the tea party, but they didn’t were masks and had clearly defined goals. This is nothing more than a network of angry idiots with no focus. I guarantee a percentage of them want to set off a country wide riots and they may succeed. Hopefully they realize this isn’t England and 00 Buck shot is legal here.
