Occupy America - illegal and ineffective, it needs to end. |
|
Edited on Tue Nov-15-11 10:49 PM by MannyGoldstein
This Occupy America thing has gone on too long. It is illegal trespass in direct violation of law, and against the express and repeated orders of the authorities. Moreover, these Occupiers are unfocused and unrealistic - they have a laundry list of complaints and demands, they need to have one or two basic grievances and demands to have any chance of success.
After 235 years, enough is enough. Time for the rabble to give it a rest and let the Crown re-establish sovereignty. And hang those fuckers Franklin and Washington, their ringleaders.
Regards,
A Concerned Citizen

37. In a monarchy it is all private property... |
|
And when those occupiers, Franklin and Washington, were doing their thing that is what America lived under.

Civil disobedience is so old fashioned and useless.
Who needs hordes of failures filling the streets? I'll bet none of them owns a pizza chain. They are just groping someone else for a solution.
I'll bet that traitor, Thomas Jefferson had something to do with inciting this feckless movement of the dissatisfied. Our streets need cleaning.

But he won't let you know this until he's over 20 yrs of age.

And vice-versa. He's a great kid. We're trying to raise him as a good FDR Liberal - so far, he falls easily into that philosophy.
Only a pre-teen now, so we can expect a change in relationship at some point...

Good luck with that.
2 boys, close in age. During their teen years I became Atilla the Hun.
Now they are enlightened liberal puppy savers in their 20's and I am the goddess of goodness.

I can't claim innocence though, my family (mom's side) were Puritans who came in the 1660s. Looking for a place where they could live their lifestyle without interference.
Now, 400 years later, I'm thinking about where I'd rather live - I guess history repeats.. My husband happens to be British so we could go back to the motherland quite easily. I think I'd rather live in a Scandinavian country though. Sweden or Denmark are mighty appealing.

28. May I suggest a "coffee bar" instead: |
|
Sahagún Chocolates KA-POW! Coffee BarWorld's first single-origin coffee bar. KA-POW! unites the bold flavor and aroma of coffee with the physicality of chocolate (without the chocolate), and sweetens it with a crunch. Best understood by tasting. Net wt: 0.88oz/25g.

Jefferson stole his ideas from that 1688 paper (or 1689)...now what was that called, who wrote it?.. ................. a loyalist named John Locke...Two Treatises of Government ...........Jefferson didn't have original thought in his head...fuck him and his ideas too....

It's barely been 10 generations...the learning curve is at least 25, if we don't destroy ourselves first!
I say we continue to Occupy, and work on that laundry list. :-)
