Sexual assaults continue to plague "Occupy" protests

Gather hundreds of protestors in a public park with free food, little to no security and a general disregard for the rule of law, and you’re bound to attract a few unsavory characters.

Around 6:00 a.m. Sunday, one such person entered a woman’s tent at Occupy Wall Street’s Zuccotti Park shantytown and sexually assaulted her, the latest in a string of rapes and sexual assaults at anti-corporate protests across the country.

Equally troubling is “Occupy” organizers’ reluctance to cooperate with police or encourage victims to seek help.

Shouldn't these people that participate in these protest have to register? Since gun owners have to.

Shouldn't they also provide proof of identification as well? Since we have to when we go to an airport.

“Sexual assaults continue to plague “Occupy” protests”

And robberies, drug dealing, sex abuse, assaults, menacing etc. But Boomberg said they could continue to occupy the park as no long as no crimes were committed. Ha! ha! these lazy morons reap what they sew. Had they been looking for a job for 1/5th of the time they’ve been hanging out they may have found one.

But all the lame stream wants to blare in headlines is Herman Cain non-news.

So, why isn’t the National Organization of Women speaking out about this?

Yes, by all means. As you said, we need to spread the word far and wide.

Hmmm. . .weren't there other pro-pesters around? Didn't she scream? If she screamed, why didn't any of the other pro-pesters help her?

I'm not saying the lady wasn't assaulted. I'm just saying there are a lot of unanswered questions.

It was dark out.
She thought it was “BJ” Clinton.
By the time it got light, she found out otherwise.

Just like the illegal community - even in "Santuary Cities".

It’s been bottled...

When I was a seaman in the 1950s Navy, there were still a lot of WWII vets. I asked them how they got along with women, especially on those 90-day war patrols (sub service). One guy told me "They gave us drugs: 'SulfaDenial' and 'NoAssAtol'".

Someone needs to ask Biden if he's feeling vindicated now...

Cheers!
