How 'Occupy' went wrong

When Occupy took over a foreclosed East New York home in December they promised to fix it up. Instead, as owner Wise Ahadzi found, they destroyed it.

Inside is a war zone. The walls are torn down, the plumbing is ripped out and the carpeting has been plucked from the floor. It’s like walking through a ribcage.

Garbage, open food containers and Ahadzi’s possessions are tossed haphazardly around the house.

“This is where my kitchen was,” Ahadzi says. There is no sink, no refrigerator and no counter space. Instead there are dirty dishes piled high waiting for a dip in three large buckets of putrid water that serve as the dishwashing system.

Their efforts have actually made the neighborhood worse — because what used to be an empty house is now a hovel of squatters and probably should be condemned.

Congratulations, dickheads.

Pacific Heights, starring Michael Keaton. A blueprint for Democlepto occupoopers.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Well in all honesty after looking at the pictures, it does look like someone has gutted it for a remodel.   You can see construction stuff on the floor.   

Looks like they started to do a remodel and then just quit, which screwed this guy.   That said, he was a fool to allow them in there in the first place.

There were videos of the Occupy Oakland gang trying to "clean up" streets, yesterday.  They sucked at it.
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

That's perfect politically correct libspeak. Occupoopers "cleaning up".

Here's a comment that made me laugh:

Where is the Post coming up with these moronic writers trying to "understand" what occupiers want, they want free stuff without having to work for it, just like the wastes of oxygen in Greece, we don't need you rocket scientists to explain it to us.

God never changes.

God alone suffices.

Another way it went wrong? It was based on the lie of "99%".


Occupoopers = epic fail, just as predicted.
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Color me shocked....    :whatever:
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

John C Calhoun, "Disquisition on Government", 1840

Yes, but what was the name of the Chinese jet pilot that crashed into our American P-3 orion ? Wong Wei. And yes he was going the wrong way.
