Quoted from Henry

And those people are arrested, it should be no different here if they disrupt other peoples everyday lives, I just hope nobody dies because they couldn't make their way to the hospital because the roads were blocked by these savages


By these SAVAGES???

Before you even see one protester, before anyone steps one foot on the ground... They ARE SAVAGES!

LMAO!  

I"m just glad you're not pre judging them Henry!

Maybe Henry based his statement on the last time the Occupy Movement held their protests last fall.

Oh... Was he referring to David Banks, the full time graduate student, earning his Ph.D.,

or the nurse Nicole Higgins, the honor student who attended SUNY Albany, got a degree is psychology,
then went back to school for nursing in 2008. She graduated in January as a Nurse Practitioner.

Or maybe Henry thinks that the Savage is 51 year old Kevin Haran,a Marketing Communications
professional married to a Special Education teacher.  Yea... he's probably Henry's SAVAGE.

Or even Mary Bryan, a retiree living on Social Security and a Pension.  She may be one of Henry's pre judged
Savages.

Probably the Savage is attorney Robert Magee.  He's worked for local attorneys and practiced his SAVAGE
trade working for the NY State  Attorney General and then in the Governor’s office.

... Or one of the thousands of other people who will protest tomorrow... YOU KNOW WHO THEY ARE...THE
SAVAGES!

nah...............he was probably referring to rest of the nameless mass who haven't accomplished anything yet and therefore couldn't lend credibility to a futile exercise, and were pretty much there for the party......................you know like Chicago '68 or any of countless others that went on..............I don't about you, but everyone I hung with who was into whole protest civil disobedience thing we all participated in back in the day, did it as much for the party as anything................when I marched against the war ('71 moratorium?) in San Francisco I spent part of the time with La Raza and some time with the vets against the war and some of the time with the Viet Nam vets..............................the two common threads that ran through those three groups were

1. Let's stop this f**king war and
2. What kind of weed ya got?

The Latino's had that Mexican dirt weed that'd give you a headache, and the the Viet Nam vets had all sorts of exotic sh*t from Southeast Asia, the guys who hadn't been to 'Nam but had been to Europe, well they had the hash.....................oh and we marched and we yelled and shouted all the proper stuff..........................................and got higher than an old hound dog that got into some moonshine............................and when we got done marching and were pretty sure we had done the right thing, but really couldn't remember, and why the f*** is that car on fire and here come the "Pigs"................

My protesting days are over, so I've never been to one of these modern day protests....................................but I am reasonably certain based on past experience and knowing human nature and the "party" nature of being young that things really aren't that much different....................the issues might change but there'll always be the weed and a chance to "party" ......................so Henry really isn't far off, and I guess we all need to decide who's a savage and who's not and just what is a savage? are there different degrees of savagery? Is Michael Savage a savage in the true sense of the word?

Your heavy drug use at an early age may explain some of your posts today.
...  and Yes.  IMO, Michael Savage would have to upgrade to qualify as a "savage".

How many cases of rape and sexual assault were there. How much damage did the peaceful demonstrators do. How many businesses were unable to conduct business because people were afraid to go into the area where the protesters were.                                           Protesters had also thrown paint "and other agents" at officers, he added.
The crowd reached about 1,000 people at its peak, Jordan said, noting that police used bean bag rounds to disperse demonstrators. He said no rubber bullets were used -- a claim disputed by protesters.

Two officers were injured in the clashes, Jordan said. He said he did not know how many demonstrators may have been hurt.

In an interview with KTVU-TV Channel 2, Officer David Carman said he had been hit by paintballs and more.
"The crowd started throwing bottles, paints, beer, eggs at myself and the other officers," he said.

But some activists criticized the police tactics.       http://latimesblogs.latimes.co.....bsp;  ted:

   The Occupy Wall Street movement has cost surrounding businesses $479,400 so far, store owners said.
    A Post survey of a dozen restaurants, jewelry shops, beauty salons, a chain store and mom-and-pop establishments tallied almost a half-million dollars lost in the 53 days since the Zuccotti Park siege began on Sept. 17.

    “My customers used to take food to eat in the park, but now they can’t,” he lamented.

    With clogged streets, aggressive signs and stories of predators and criminals lurking among the knot of protesters, business owners and managers say shoppers are not taking the risk of coming to the area.

Yup when they broke into city hall and burned the flag while the crowd cheered, after that disgusting display they have no credibility.

And if you assume that I'm a radical 'liberal' you assume too much. Although in this Conservative Swamp,
anyone to the left of Attila the Hun would be considered a 'liberal'.

I support the 2nd amendment, with some very strict FEDERAL gun control laws, especially concerning pistols
and concealed carry laws.
I support a compulsorily national draft... for everyone.  Service to your country should be a mandatory
obligation for everyone male and female... NO EXCEPTIONS, no deferments, no excuses.

Liberal, like Conservative is a relative thing.

once again I don't think I assumed you were a 'radical liberal' .......................and believe me I know radical liberals, real crazy folk....................and yeah believe it or not I always thought mandatory service was a good thing...............I'm not sure how I feel about it these days though...........................I'm really pretty much detached from that kinda sh*t now....................don't care anymore, thus off the bus...............................I do like to laugh though, so understand that the darts I throw are rubber tipped for the most part.................I only use the poisoned ones for the unlikable folk..............ya know the orcs and cave goblins and weasels and such.................and always, always, always remember to refer to my postscript when there may be some doubt as to where I may be coming from.........................

"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
