“private property interests trumped our clients’ good-faith defenses”

And some say lawyers are supposed to be smart. Don’t know what makes these four so stupid but it really works.

OCCUPY WALL STREET. Is there any wonder why the socialist democrat party is collasping faster than ERIC WITHHOLDER can shovel a ten foot pile of bullcrap. I wish I could have been in on the democrat brainstorming meeting when that duzzy of an idea was brought up. Let’s see, we get all the lazy stoners living at home to camp out and crap all over the place so the american people will feel sorry they don’t have enough welfare money given to them each month, or something like that. Yeh, that’s going to win political points everytime.

OK, Mr Orion, if I come and pick your private property in the form of your wallet, am I justified if I do it in 'good faith' (whatever that means)?

ignoring signs that warned against trespassing

Can't read? Understandable.
