Police in Denver and Salt Lake City swept anti-Wall Street protesters from their camps as demonstrators and supporters in Portland, Ore., flooded a city park area in defiance of an eviction order on Sunday.

In Portland, crowds that swelled to thousands and went toe-to-toe with police moved back onto sidewalks and downtown's Lownsdsale and Chapman squares after closing Southwest Third Avenue and Madison Street overnight.

The LSM won’t be happy until there is a Kent State moment.

They had better get these things under control before Thanksgiving. All the college kids are itching to get back to these cities and join in.

Word is coming down from on high.

The “occupy” mob has outlived it’s usefulness. They have become a political liability. Get rid of them.

It’s probably much too late for a whole passel of Dem city mayors. There’s going to be 2012 electoral massacre on the LOCAL level to match the auto-da-fe on the national level.

“All politics is local” as Tip O’Neil said. And the voters in these lib cities are PISSED.

Yep, I just wonder who will pony up and volunteer as the sacrificial lambs?

The problem they have is ubiquitous video filming. You just can't start a fight and then blame your opponent the way you could in the seventies.

They try to instigate something and wind up with a video of occupiers pushing little old ladies down a flight of stairs posted all over the internet.

The script was written.

Plans were all mapped out.

The political backroom deals were made.

Everything got the green light.

Reality cruelly refused to cooperate with the script.

OWS has no idea, but they better PRAY the current lot of marxists (calling themselves progressives) does not get re-elected. First order of business, OWS, GONE (Just like the SA). They don’t even see that an “SS” is about to come out and their aint room for both.

Young people are immortal; that's why they are doing things that a normal person would call a suicide by a 3rd party. When the Kent State moment happens it will be a complete surprise. After all, doesn't the police just surrender the ground as this mob of anarchists is pushing farther and farther?

Unless you're talking about the leadership in every lib hellhole of a city as well, than don't count on OWS being gone. Local jurisdictions are responsible for cleaning up the garbage, not federal or state. And I don't see places like Portland, Oakland or NY getting anywhere close to "conservative" in electing sane officials.

11:18 a.m.: Occupier Lucky McClish said he's searching for his 7-week-old puppy, Chubs, who was last seen in their tent. The tent has since been removed by police.

An officer said no animals have been found and if one were, the Humane Society would take custody.

"I'm not sticking around for the rest of this. I gotta find my puppy. He was keeping me sane," McClish said.

I'd get a medical opinion on that.

One of the commenters suggested that the OWS movement was a Karl Rove plan to make liberals look bad. If this were true, Rove would once again deserve the “magnificent bastard” moniker — despite his recent anti-conservative leanings.

It may be time for the George Wallace solution.

He set up machine gun emplacements in strategic positions and announced the time that they would open fire.

Curiously enough, the crowd dispersed.

Of course, it might not work with this crowd, since none of them have seen M-2's or M-1919's in action. However, I think they would be running and ducking when it happens.

I have similar fantasies, but fire hoses discharging chlorine laced ice water should do well enough. They’d getr a whole new idea of what “tie dyed” meant, especially if there was enough chlorine to really burn.

Where did the original come from? Looks like it’s a cartoon from the 1930’s.

I can’t say — I discovered it a while ago, after searching on “Night of the Long Knives”.

Here's how they did it in the Old Days. The Riot Act:

Although it DOES remind me of MP "Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch":
And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O LORD, bless this Thy hand grenade that with it Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits, in Thy mercy." . . . "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."
