That is outrageously funny. I wonder if any drivers put the window down and yelled “TURN AROUND, YOU DOPES!”

Dear Mom & Dad:

Still having a great time in NYC. But, I could use a little more money. Please send $500 to me by Western Union, c/o the New York City Police Department at 130 Avenue C, New York, NY 10009-5337. The sooner the better.

Love ya,

Your loving, liberated daughter.

The LA deal got big play on the NBC nightly news. (don’t ask me how I know this).

Said the NYC movement was “spreading nationwide” and could have a “major effect” on the 2012 elections.

Showed fatboy Moore and a few other idiot libs in NYC.

What a joke....

The proper response is to see how many of them know how to high dive, and of those, how many can swim. Thanks barmag25.

They'll probably keep these demonstrations limited to the big cities where anti-gun laws will protect the protestors. If they try that those demonstrations outside of the big cities then the demonstrators will be "at risk" from the citizens who have guns and will want to protect their property.

Wow, just.... wow.

I see these people in Oakland (Where CMU/Pitt/Carlow/Point Park) students congregate and they are the same scruffy, unwashed, uneducated nubs studying diversity, women’s studies, Asian deisgn etc. that will never get a job, never pay off their loans and end up working at Starbucks and stocking shelves at Whole Foods.

These morons are the progeny of unimaginable wealth creating an unimaginable availability of free time and a lack of direction. Nothing more, nothing less.

Glenn Beck is going to have fun with this on Monday. Lots of clues spotted in the crowed that shows who really is behind this.
