Forum Post: A Proud American

The ‘Occupy’ movement, whether displaying itself on Wall Street or in the streets of Oakland (which has, with unspeakable cowardice, embraced it) is anything but an exercise of our blessed First Amendment. ‘Occupy’ is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America.

‘Occupy’ is nothing short of a clumsy, poorly-expressed attempt at anarchy, to the extent that the ‘movement’ – HAH! Some ‘movement’, except if the word ‘bowel’ is attached – is anything more than an ugly fashion statement by a bunch of iPhone, iPad wielding spoiled brats who should stop getting in the way of working people and find jobs for themselves.

People need to turn off their televisions and realize: money follows power. There are forces in this country that don't care about what is good for America. They only care about more money and power.

The special interest have been able to control congress behind the scenes and only now are people beginning to talk about this.(Watch the piece by 60 minutes that shows how congress is involved LEGALLY in insider trading: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x95uC_wzUX4)

Liberals and Conservatives alike must unite on this idea that congress must stop working for the elite and wealthy in this country and must work in the interest which they express so eloquently during their campaign speeches.

Enough of the hate speech about "living in your parents basement" and enough unrealistic demands like "jobs for all". Until we regain control of OUR government there is no point in protesting anything.

WAKE UP PEOPLE! Obama doesn't care about you! He gets more money from wall st. than all the republican candidates combined! And the Republicans dont care about you either! They get loads of money too! As I said before money follows power.

But at least it has people gathering. It's not nothing.

OWS are the Great Patriots of the hour and one day Liberty Plaza will become a historical site.

Grandparents will take their grandkids out on the tour and tell them proudly :

"This is where it all began...

This is where we decided to take back our country...

This is where America was reborn.

We kicked out our oppressors just as our forefathers had kicked out the British in 1776."

This is no popular uprising. This is garbage. And goodness knows they’re spewing their garbage – both politically and physically – every which way they can find.

Wake up, pond scum. America is at war against a ruthless enemy.

Maybe, between bouts of self-pity and all the other tasty tidbits of narcissism you’ve been served up in your sheltered, comfy little worlds, you’ve heard terms like al-Qaeda and Islamicism.

And this enemy of mine — not of yours, apparently - must be getting a dark chuckle, if not an outright horselaugh - out of your vain, childish, self-destructive spectacle.

In the name of decency, go home to your parents, you losers. Go back to your mommas’ basements and play with your Lords Of Warcraft.

Or better yet, enlist for the real thing. Maybe our military could whip some of you into shape.

They might not let you babies keep your iPhones, though. Try to soldier on.

Very well put. I couldn't agree more.
