Posted: Mar 31, 2012

So, pretend we have a Church rally and some idiot participants wreak havoc and engage in violence. Wouldn't it be silly - and biased - to refer to this as Christian violence?

OWS - sm

There must be a huge problem with the "infiltrators" disgused as OWS.

Heritage’s Lachlan Markay reports that as the Occupy Wall Street begins taking in hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations, an organization known as the Alliance for Global Justice (AFGJ) has been retained to process the transactions. That group’s other activities and associations are cause for alarm:



The AFGJ provides ‘grassroots’ support for organizations that pursue ‘a socially, ecologically and economically just world,’ according to its website. Among its initiatives are efforts to encourage American soldiers to desert and an anti-George Bush organization founded by members of the Revolutionary Communist Party.


The organization’s president, Katherine Hoyt, leads the Alliance’s Nicaragua Network program, which supports the country’s Marxist Sandinista political party — and was founded for the explicit purpose of overthrowing the country’s government. Hoyt previously worked for the Sandinista government, and has written numerous scholarly works lauding the group. The Sandinistas ruled from 1979 to 1990. Their leader, Daniel Ortega, was elected again in 2006.



Another of AFGJ’s affiliates: George Soros. His Open Society Institute has given the group $100,000. The Occupy Wall Street movement has other supporters, too, including Big Labor. The AFL-CIO took out advertisements supporting the protests and, according to The Washington Post, “Labor groups are mobilizing to provide office space, meeting rooms, photocopying services, legal help, food and other necessities to the protesters.” And despite the violence and radicalism, it’s a movement that President Barack Obama and others on the left have been quick to support, too.

You make an interesting point about the Obama button. I guess that may have backfired on the OP.

Wrong! It backfired on you. If I wanted to, I would have presented this article with no mention of the obama pin.

Of course you could, - but had you done that
[ In Reply To ..]
the libs, being the snobby academic elitists that they are, would have found the information anyway via their tireless research tactics and posted the poignant detail for you. The Obama pin detail kinda casts considerable doubt as to the identity of the thug plants that have plagues OWS rally from the very beginning. Sooner or later their identities will be exposed. I'm looking forward to seeing the spin on THAT day as well.
Did it ever occur to anyone - that perhaps
[ In Reply To ..]
some OWS people don't like Obama either. I mean...he did get a butt load of money from Wall Street before the pooh hit the fan. Also, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that politicians and wall street from both parties have been scratching each others back for quite a while. Perhaps they ripped the Obama pin off the lady because they are fed up with him too. Just a thought.
don't understand your post - nothing backfired on me
[ In Reply To ..]
The problem with OWS is that - - see msg.
[ In Reply To ..]
as long as they are so staunchly nonviolent, their cause will be dismissed and ignored. Notice that the only time they draw headlines is when some goons infiltrate the march and do some minor damage, or when a cop gets an itchy trigger finger with his rubber bullet gun or teargas grenade launcher. When OWS gets tired of being passive (i.e., "nonviolent"), takes up arms and starts shooting back, THAT is when the government will finally sit up and take notice.
please clarify - goldie

And people were afraid of the so-called "wing nuts" and the Tea Party? Bitter clingers?

Are you seriously saying that OWS needs to get violent to get the govt to take notice? If so, I strongly disagree. Is this something that the leaders in the Dem party (like Pelosi) are supporting? The way to make change is through elections (i.e. what the TP did). Can you imagine if someone like Marco Rucio or Michelle Bachmann were telling people that they need to stop being so passive and take up arms to make changes in the govt? No, I can't either. If this is what OWS is going to become, then Americans will become outraged and it will most certainly backfire.
