Gunning for Wall Street, With Faulty Aim
The New York Times ^ | Sept 23, 2011 | Ginia Bellafante

"By late morning on Wednesday, Occupy Wall Street, a noble but fractured and airy movement of rightly frustrated young people, had a default ambassador in a half-naked woman who called herself Zuni Tikka. A blonde with a marked likeness to Joni Mitchell and a seemingly even stronger wish to burrow through the space-time continuum and hunker down in 1968, Ms. Tikka had taken off all but her cotton underwear and was dancing on the north side of Zuccotti Park, facing Liberty Street, just west of Broadway. Tourists stopped to take pictures; cops smiled, and the insidiously favorable tax treatment of private equity and hedge-fund managers was looking as though it would endure......

The word is get out there and protest, “what are we protesting for” I don’t know but get out there and protest. Sadly this time and for the forseeable future the question what are we protesting for did not come into play.

Chris Spiech, arrived on Thursday with the hope of indoctrinating his peers in the lessons of Austrian economics, Milton Friedman and Ron Paul. “I want to abolish the Federal Reserve,” he said.

This group of maggots includes PaulTards. LOL

“GUNNING FOR WALL STREET”! This, from the NY Times? Oh my......they seem to have crapped all over themselves. I think it’s time the old grey lady went to the nursing home.

Video of topless women. Alert! Bare chests! (Of course if it were guys there would be no need for an alert)

Tikka, if she's the blond in the video is actually pretty good looking which surprised me.

I was surprised by her too.

On the other hand, the women showing off their armpit hair pretty much ruined it.

She’s taken all the benefits of a free society in order to look good for her age and try to bring down said society. No fool like an old fool!

Helter Skelter.

I’d like to see how long these recreate ‘68 retards would maintain their view after being a guest of Chuckey Manson & Co. at Barker Ranch for a few months.

FAIL.

I posted this link a week ago when they were totally laughable but a week later they are less than laughable because they are becoming a real disturbance and more moonbats and libtards are joining them every day.

What's interesting about the Weathermen, circa 1972, is how many of their "leaders" were malcontent offspring of afluent [redacted]s.

I'd expect this crop isn't much different; and like those who blew before them, as well as the sheeple fleecing NyLon thieves they're allegedly protesting, don't have a clue what this...

...is all about.

I am ambivalent about that. Shaving under the arm is pretty much an American thing. Women can't help that God put hair there.

Think of it, millions of Americans p*ssed off at Wall Street for its criminal levels of greed for which damned few are facing criminal charges, our economy facing utter ruin in a time of war, our economic clout in the world reeling on the ropes, and some 60’s throwback commies are doing what 2/3 of this country want to do, put a noose around the necks of the immoral, unethical, sociopath engineers of those crap derivative loan instruments and other forms of “creative” bookkeeping. Those dope smoking, sex, drugs and rock and roll hippies beat us to the punch. Nice going.

Why conservatives remain hypnotized by obsolete definitions of “free market” is beyond me. Any company too big to fail should be regulated. Period. Any company that would require a bailout to save the nation’s economy is textbook FASCIST. Fighting fascism took lot of American patriots to an untimely death in recent history. Why do we spit on their graves? Is this how we show gratitude for heroism?
