BreitbartTV ^ | 10/15/2011 | Staff

A Breitbart.tv investigation has uncovered that the man whose epic meltdown video at the "Occupy Wall Street" protests went viral is really Edward T. Hall III. Mr. Hall is a Columbia graduate student who has a trust fund set up by his grandfather.

He was charged with trespassing and is free on "conditional release."

I think a judge who sees the video would revoke Edward’s “Conditional Release” and order him hospitalized for psychological evaluation.

Many of these dirty hippies are trust fund parasites who would starve to death if they had to earn their own living. The capitalist system is to blame for their unhappiness, doncha know.

“I think a judge who sees the video would revoke Edward’s “Conditional Release” and order him hospitalized for psychological evaluation.”

I would rather he revoke his release and replace it with a requirement that he work as a construction laborer or any other physically demanding job. In addition I would require him to write a 25 page paper on the atrocities committed by Stalin.

Looking at what passes for serious study at Columbia, I’m amazed at just how far ‘higher education’ has strayed from true thoughtfulness and scholarship.

Weren’t the majority of 9/11 terrorist attackers well educated from well off or wealthy families?

That’s why I brought up Geoffry Goines in post 13.

The character was a wealthy trust fundie who was leader of some kind of small militant marxist group.

This is from his academia.edu site

I study intertemporal choice with respect to environmental decisions. I wish to develop socially based interventions to help moderate excessive discounting. I am also especially interested in the organizing of research information for public use, and open access use of ideas for problem solving.

Does anyone have any WTF he's talking about?

But Edward is not limited to behavioral economics.

He draws upon the fields of evolutionary neuroscience, cultural anthropology, emotion research, environmental economics, industrial ecology and social psychology. Before entering the research realm, Edward studied photography and the fine arts under the instruction of Stephen Shore, Tim Davis, Liz Deschenes, Lowry Burgess, and Golan Levin. He believes artists, citizen researchers, social networks, gamer designers, writers, theologians and DIYers must become help shape the poetry of science, to make it human.
