Really nice, decent people attend these rallys...right?

This is only one of a hundred or two hundred isolated cases. :lamo

I think we can stop using the term "isolated" at this point.

Absolutely disgusting - all of it is just a shameful mar on America . . . and other nations around the world.
 
Re: SoCal Street Cart Vendors Hurting After ‘Occupy’ Group Splatters Blood, Urine(edi

Dispicable behavior, particularly since the vendors in question had been giving the demonstrators free food and beverages for weeks. When they could no longer afford to do so, some demonstrators showed their gratitude by destroying their ability to earn a living.

There's no way to spin this in a good light. It's repulsive, and the people who did this are repulsive.

Yeah...that message is kinda confusing, isnt it? I mean...OWS REALLY just cares about the political influence wielded by the banks and brokers and the money they pay to politicians...right? Well...except the fact that they elected the biggest recipients of the banker/broker spunk and are going to do it again.
 
Re: SoCal Street Cart Vendors Hurting After ‘Occupy’ Group Splatters Blood, Urine(edi

I bet CBS just ommited the "Cops spilled the blood with their batton" part :p /sarcsm

Why the hell would someone attack someone that gave them free food though?

They stopped giving it to them for free.,..and thats just not fair man. Those cart owners are part of the system, man! They are oppressing 'the people' with charging for coffee (probably not duty free coffee either dood) and their non PETA sanctioned hot dogs.

If you want me to believe that would motivate a person into attacks with blood.. (wich I assume deep down you dont) then ya... not buying it sorry. Just too damn obvious. I bet its more like some crazy freak did it and its time to blame it on a peoples movement.

In other words, don't bother you with facts because your mind is made up. Maybe you'll bother to read this link, since you obviously didn't read the first one. If you need a video, there is a news broadcast video that details how the vendors have been vandalized, had inventory and equipment stolen, and even received death threats because they could no longer give away free food.

That excuse might have held some validity the first dozen times... but we're way past "isolated incidents not representing the movement" and getting into "pattern of escalating incidents".

Just in case anybody doesn't know, "pattern of escalating incidents" is something that usually ends very badly.

So far the facts are:

The cart and a protest where in the same area. The cart was giving out free food and was forced to close down after vandalism and theft. Attacked with blood and urine.

You really think people are petty enough to attack with blood because someone stopped giving them a gift? The motive just doesnt add up. All your video did was parrot the conditions without actually stating it was OWS protestors.

As for me, I haven't made up my mind 1 way or the other.

Doesn't surprise me a bit. Human nature... at least the nature of some humans.

Give them freebie; they likee. Give them lotsa freebie alla time; they come to expect freebie and think it is their right. Stop giving freebie; they think you are denying them something they deserve and get pissed beyond all reason.

I've seen people who walked on other people for months or years, while the other person took it like a doormat... then ONE day the doormat got fed up and said "Enough!" and the bully reacted with anger, outrage and even HURT FEELINGS that their doormat had suddenly stopped letting them walk on him!!

some people are rotten.

It amazes me how willing our people are to allow trash to accumulate and clutter up our streets without removing it-- by whatever force is required.

Yes they are that petty and the flea baggers prove it time and time again.
 
Re: SoCal Street Cart Vendors Hurting After ‘Occupy’ Group Splatters Blood, Urine(edi

Anyone else see a parallel between the discontinued free hot dogs and the parts of the budget the right wingers want to cut?

You left out one important fact that goes between "The cart was giving out free food..." and "was forced to close down after vandalism and theft.".

That fact is that the vendors STOPPED giving out free food.

And, yes...people ARE petty enough. Especially useful idiots.

And judging by what we have seen on video and from many of the OWS folks...you dont think they arent stuffed with some crazy freaks?

Part of the problem with having this 'movement' is that they are so absolutely all over the place that it is destined to attract a bunch idiots, morons, and other assorted 'crazy freaks'. Most that are protesting dont know what they are protesting about, and many that claim they do are full of ****. They rant and rage on and on against the influence of the banks and brokers on politicians and yet they support and vote FOR the very recipients of the bank/broker/union dollars.

I do. I have to imagine, that with the term "right wingers" that you are seeing it differently then me, though. Budget cuts equal the stopping of free hot dogs. Democrat protestations equal the OWS actions.

Other than they're both fronted by Weiners?

No - not at all :D

That could be interpreted as the 1% doing the walking and the 99% beginning to object to the doormat status. A very germaine analogy.

Where's the love? There's a song for this troublesome issue:



Everyone sing!
This is Jack, he runs a popcorn cart . . . but he also takes a nightclub class in abstract art. . .

Adrea serves a mean jerk-chicken but her mind is set on getting her husband to remodel their kitchen . . .

You buy their hotdogs and you crave their kabobs . . . you won't forget what you bit but will you remember their face? . . .

They're not just vendors: they're a member of the human race . . .
 
Re: SoCal Street Cart Vendors Hurting After ‘Occupy’ Group Splatters Blood, Urine(edi

I wonder if this is similar to a Journal Sentinel story here in Milwaukee a few years ago when they quoted a police officer as saying feces were hurled at a recruiting station when it never actually happened. That's certainly a possibility considering that the article in the OP is essentially worthless and doesn't provide any info surrounding this event whatsoever, and merely quotes "a city councilman" about the alleged bodily fluids. The article is also pretty clearly biased.
