Occupy Wall Street: A movement filled with simple minded leftists greedy for publicity

People trying to understand the 'Occupy Wall Street' protests going on in the United States need to understand one thing – these guys are dumb as a bag of rocks.



They are so insanely jealous of the popular conservative Tea Party movement that they want to recreate the model for America-hating leftists.



The movement seems to consist of an amalgamation of Obama supporters, bored students, paid union protesters, actual American communists and loony Hollywood types. They have a diverse list of demands yet seem to be unified by a hatred of American capitalism and freedom.

The Declaration of the Occupation of New York provided a list of demands. Demands include corporate America stopping the torture of animals, termination of the death penalty for convicted murderers and defunding of the military to stop creating new weapons to protect America from foreign threats. This group has targeted Wall Street financiers, officials of the U.S. government and multinational corporation.

Occupy Wall Street, yet another group of lefty crackpots, crafted up a list of demands including some socialist oldies but goodies. Imposing a universal single payer health care system while at the same time forcing businesses to pay a 'guaranteed living wage income regardless of employment.' They want to abolish all debt and spend one trillion dollars on the environment. They have created a manifesto that would brighten the spirits of ailing communists like Venezuelan strong man Hugo Chavez and Cuba’s Fidel Castro.



The bottom line is that these left wing freaks incorrectly believe that they can set up a big government version of the Tea Party. They have a warped view of activism and want to force unpopular socialist ideas on America. They are too dumb to understand that the American people support limited government, free market capitalism and low taxes.



Some of the Hollywood based supporters of the movement are making the protesters look foolish. One time comedian Roseanne Barr and star of a hit situation comedy 'Rosanne' has proven to be one of the dumbest of Hollywood’s dumb. She took to RT (Russia Today) to argue that she wants to execute bankers with a 'guillotine.' Barr went on to advocate for re-education camps for non-repentant bankers.

Solution: Roseanne Barr said bankers who don't pay back the money they owe should be beheaded

Barr was joined in supporting the protests by elite and super wealthy actors Susan Sarandon and Marc Ruffalo. Ruffalo attended a protest then praised the angry mob for 'fighting for liberty, justice and equality.' Maybe he is too busy reviewing scripts to read the various manifestos and to review the list of groups participating in these protests.



One supporter and participant in the protest is the International Socialist Organization, New York City chapter. This group supports Marxism and would love to see a revolutionary overthrow of the U.S. government. They have scheduled an event on Marxism in November with a closing speech to the event titled 'Can There Be a Revolution in the US?' This extremist group had a message of support on for the 700 protesters were arrested last week causing trouble.



According to USA Today, 700 wacky leftists thought it smart to attack commuters to make a point.



'The demonstrators, part of the group Occupy Wall Street, were arrested Saturday during a confrontation with police on the Brooklyn Bridge. They were arrested after leaving the sidewalk on the bridge and walking in the road', police said. 'Over 700 summonses and desk appearance tickets have been issued in connection with a demonstration on the Brooklyn Bridge … after multiple warnings by police were given to protesters to stay on the pedestrian walkway,' said Paul Browne, spokesman for the New York City Police Department.



According to The Hollywood Reporter, avowed socialist documentary filmmaker Michael Moore exemplified the empty headed Hollywood message when he wrote on Twitter:



'Now over 700 ARRESTED as THOUSANDS descend on Wall Street!'



Please know that these protesters are no more representatives of Americans than the Brits who took to the streets in March tossing paint bombs and light bulbs filled with ammonia at the police. The law breaking Brits and Americans seem to have a love for attacking the police then crying foul when they get locked up. Like the violent left wingers in the U.K., these American fools are protesting to preserve the welfare state and to promote failed socialist policies. Expect a few more weeks of this low grade circus then we shall not hear about the 'Occupy Wall Street' protests again.
