A curious article appeared in the L.A. Times this week. The true symbol of the occupests which pocked our national landscape this autumn may very well be the hazmat suit. As it happens, our next to become adults generation is not only emotionally vacuous, intellectually stunted, more than a little messy, but we who raised them could have done much better in the area of potty training as well.
The sheer volume of personal belongings left behind after the early morning Los Angeles Police Department raid has astonished city workers: books and CDs, luggage and boom boxes, mattresses and dining chairs, cellphones, electric razors, a small red guitar with its neck snapped –- all surrounded by dozens of collapsed and empty tents.
A steady flow of people stopped by the park Wednesday to take photos and video and watch workers in white hazmat suits rake trash into neat piles.
As workers broke down tents and placed them in trash cans, Ramir Delgado, 25, snapped photos out of curiosity.
“It’s a shame how I see all trash around here,” he said. He pointed to his head. “People don’t understand that the freedom starts here in your mind.”
Delgado said he was disappointed in Occupy L.A.
”You know why this is filthy and not clean is there isn’t leadership,” he said.
A few feet away, crews in the hazmat suits raked trash of discarded protest signs, nail polish and jars of peanut butter.
Emphasis mine.
For those of you who have not caught on to what the L.A. Times is clearly attempting to gloss over here, hazmat suits are not worn by people merely picking up a little harmless trash. These suits are worn by people who wish to avoid the sickness involved with cleaning up some of the nastier bio hazards. In short, there must have been a hell of a lot of human waste in the down town L.A. park. Compare the coverage of the Tea Parties to what is going on with the occupests. Also compare the police blotters, and the aftermath. Zero arrests at the Tea Party Rallies, all rallies purchased permits from the local municipalities and left their protests in cleaner condition than when they started. The occupests on the other hand, thousands of arrests, squatting on public, and in some instances private property, and left behind tons of trash, human waste and had to have people in protective suits clean up after them. The Tea Partiers were denigrated as hate mongering racist thugs on the verge of violent behavior. The occupests were covered as being representative of 99% of all Americans and the mainstream of American thought.
Throughout all of this, I have been reading fluff pieces from many different sources. What staggers the imagination is the realization that very few ever took the time to critically consider what these self entitled little punks were actually demanding. Quite simply, they wish to be taken care of by others whom they do not know. After borrowing a couple of hundred grand to go to college to study some worthless field, they were shocked to learn that being a counter clerk pouring coffee to self righteous former hippies at Starbucks would not generate an income sufficient to repay the loans used to purchase their feel good fields of study. Rather than get mad at the people who lied to them in the first place, by telling them that it would be a good idea to go and get a degree in Sociology, they got mad at the folks who funded their 4 years of binge drinking, projectile vomiting, and waking to freshly manicured lawns, never once actually gaining any useful understanding to the very real world they would some day inhabit. As for their list of demands, which I have linked to here, once again, they can only be characterized as asinine. But that description does not really do justice as to how vacuous these societal parasites really are. Consider that they did not even have a list of demands nor an actual reason for their protests when they actually started all of this, in August. It was a full 2 months of this nonsense before they told us what got their panties in a bunch in the first place. For serious people who are productive members of society, public protests are the last resort to garner the attention of an unresponsive and unaccountable government. For the spoiled children generation, protesting was the first impulsive action of a generation asked to support themselves. Blaming the banks for their plight merely tells me that these brats either were not taught basic economics from a qualified teacher, at any time in their lives, or they slept through the classes. The fact that they found toileting such a challenge makes me think the latter may be the case. Either way it matters not to me. Hose the brats off, force them to bathe, and allow them to either starve or support themselves.

By their habits, the OWS crowd tells us how much use they really have for environmentalism. Like everything else with these freaks, “Environmentalism” is just a code word for them telling other people (the Little People™ or, as Hitler referred to them, die Untermenchen) how to live. Such rules and strictures do not apply to them because they are the, like, you know, Ruling Class. Born to Rule! They have great self-esteem, whatever other faults they might have…

NEWTON, N.C. – A Hickory man is facing multiple charges, including DWI, after slamming into a DWI mobile command center Sunday morning.
The incident happened on US 321 at the intersection of 9th Street around 2:45 a.m.
Law enforcement officers were conducting a DWI checkpoint when a 1989 red Chevy Camaro rammed into the back of the “Booze it and Lose it” mobile unit. People were inside the unit at the time, but no one was hurt.
Newton police say 21-year-old Douglas Shane Southard was driving the Camaro. Southard was transported to Catawba Memorial with non-life threatening injuries.
As of Monday morning Southard is listed in stable condition.
He is also charged with driving with a revoked license, careless and reckless driving and failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident.
If no one else has posted this, please accept my offering of the true and complete story of the UC Davis pepper spray incident. I’ll offer an overview for those that don’t have 15 minutes to watch it.
Cops were called to remove tents.
protestors physically blocked their egress after dismantling tents and arresting a few who impeded them.
read that again, they blocked in the cops and were chanting threats at them. If you ask me, and watch for yourself, the cops were too restrained.

I might have mentioned the Human Centipede once, but it is not a favorite topic of discussion with me. For my money, the Occupiers resemble nothing so much as the kids on the island in Lord of the Flies.
What I find truly astonishing is that none of these “green solutions”-type people have hit on the notion of using—get this—a megaphone. You know, a plain, ordinary, unamplified, non-electronic…megaphone. The kind that Rudy Vallee used. The kind that coxswains still use when working with the crew. They would not count as “amplified” sound, since they are not electrical or electronic. They would not get out of order, because there is nothing to get out of order. I have to assume that megaphones are not used because:
1) The Occupiers are so dirt-ignorant and historically-challenged that they do not know such things exist, and
2) It is a conscious decision by the leaders and organizers of this rabble, who spend much time pretending that they are not leading and organizing, to avoid drawing attention to themselves by possession of paraphernalia; to foster the illusion in the lemmings they are leading that they are not, in fact, being led; and to brainwash the lemmings by having them mindlessly repeat whatever the “mike check” person is blathering.

Hey, how did you do on your big test today?
Here in Maine, the Occupy Portland group has been told by the city that they actually need permits to be in the area where they are and that technically, they cannot spend the night. This after a couple of months of “occupy”. The group told the city council that we’ll look at your laws and decide whether or not we accept them. The meek, liberal city council is walking on eggshells around this group. Portland just elected a Mayor for the first time in 60 or 70 years (normally just a city council and city manager) and the new guy has expressed solidarity with them and said he will not enforce the laws on the books.

This provides a nice counterpoint to Common_Sense’s article. I especially like this:
Why, indeed, does the Department of Education need a SWAT team? And if they can send SWAT to arrest Tibetan Monks, why can’t they bust Jose Pendajo of the Sinaloa drug cartel? Oh, that’s right! Jose has a gun! They know this because the BATF smuggled it into Mexico and sold it to him…
There is something dreadfully wrong with law enforcement in America today. Of that there is no real doubt. Pepper-spraying Occupests probably isn’t part of it, though…

how’s i do?
A woman I knew at work told me one day that her daughter had called up her parents to ask them to pay off her student loans.
The daughter was working and her husband was working, but they were having trouble qualifying for a mortgage on the house they wanted because she had huge student loans that had paid for her degree in English.
She said to her parents that she shouldn’t be stuck with student loans and that she wanted her parents to pay for them. She was looking to move into a far more expensive house than the mortgaged house that her parents owned.
The woman told me that she and her husband said, “Uh, no.”
They didn’t entertain the subject again. They had paid for all the things that the student loans didn’t cover while the daughter was a student. They also had other kids who either worked their way through school or who were paying off their student loans without even a hint of wanting help with them.
It was a bad moment for these parents but not surprising.

as an ex military person, what i see in going on in law enforcement scares me. these shitheads (yes shitheads) arent disciplined enough for the toys and training they are recieving
@ coldwarrior:
I read somewhere that some congress creature was wanting to do away with posse comitatus and let the military do the law enforcing. Bad, bad, bad Idea. The soldier is not the policeman. Different skillsets. If you really look at the situation, the police should never have fully automatic weapons. They have to account (or should have to account) for every round they fire in any situation. They will never be outnumbered for very long. They will (almost always) have the luxury of hunkering down and calling for reinforcements. The civillian, OTOH, will not always have such luxury. It is the civillian who has to face down an undetermined number of home invaders that kick in his front door in the middle of the night, not the policeman.
@ Iron Fist: Navy Seal killed during home invasion by a police drug raid. Even if he was guilty they could have taken him down at his work and raided his home while he was in custody? Bad policing.
@ 71 Iron Fist: I rode the school bus with the wife killed in Ruby Ridge. She was the one of the nicest person I had every met. Whole family is a set of nice people. Unnecessary force by managers who want to make their Barney Fife law enforcement bones. No Andy Griffiths among them.
