Occupy Wall Street Pic

[Beer Snob-50]

Unfortunatly I am unable to download and post the pic, but one of the right wing idiots on my facebook page (my wifes cousin) posted a picture of banners at a occupy wall street march. Each banner had an a and e in a circle and one of the signs said fuck the troops. Has anyone from here seen this pic and is it legit?

1. No, I haven't seen that.

But anybody can show up and carry a sign. It's likely those folks - if it's a real photo at all - would be criticized heavily by the bulk of the protestors.

2. Is this the banner?

Anarchists, who comprise a miniscule minority, but will be cited by the reich wing as emblematic of everyone at OWS.

8. Plus it certainly isn't Manhattan, let alone Wall Street, or Zucotti park

other than that, it is VERY CONCERNING.

10. Is anyone surprised that the reich wing appropriates outdated images for purposes of propaganda?

Not me. I would urge the author of the OP to post this info as a reply to the wingnut friend who posted that image in the first place. As I don't do Facebook, I don't have first-hand exposure to this RW claptrap.

12. I have done it

I also sent a message to the person with the shot obama in the head message on her facebook page just asking her to please reconcile her love of jesus with her hateful message of a fellow human.

13. Nice find.

Clearly, the people holding the banner are time travelers capable of bending the space time continuum and appearing simultaneously in multiple places and times.

They are the same people that are simultaneously unorganized, stoned, dirty hippies AND highly organized revolutionaries poised to overthrow the American government.

3. A Girl on Facebook said Obama

should be shot. You should ask your friend why all Republicans feel that way.

5. They have infiltrators, don't they? Even their faces are covered, so they aren't too proud. eom

6. infiltrators - they are tolerated at our protests for some reason

I guess nobody is sure what to do but the signs saying f the troops go straight to the propaganda media.

I know I just look at the asswipes and never confront them.:shrug:
