Profesional Protesters = Useful Idiots.

There is no need for them in a “workers paradise” because protesting will be a crime against the state.

[GeronL]

this is the type of protests we should be seeing everyday in DC from the conservative side.

[popdonnelly]

“a diverse mix of anti-war campaigners, anti-poverty groups, anarchists and climate change protestors.”

That’s diverse? They’re all radical leftists. The membership is interchangeable.

[popdonnelly]

These demonstrators are such idiots. Totally disrupt their societies, vandalize, disobey the police, and then whine like small children when the police try to stop them. The same idiocy that’s been going on since the 1960’s. And they want us to sympathize with them.

You know, it's just not a real protest without big stupid looking puppets. Good to see that the Euro-Anarchists are on the ball.

[The Duke]

If the world was having a "puppy shortage" then they would be trashing the pet store.

This isn't the *real* attack on banks yet, just a bunch of college "anarchists" symbiotically posturing for their journalist enablers.

The real deal will happen if/when people start getting hungry (in the most literal sense of the word). That's when blood will flow in the streets.

Well, FlyingEagle was there at the Bank of England earlier today. All they needed to add was tea, and it is the sort of message to government and banksters that needs to be communicated in the US. The protesters were mostly just regular people, distressed about having the government bail out bankers with massive cash injections to companies and bonuses to the morons who tanked the economy, while jobs are being lost, taxes are going up, savings and retirement pensions are evaporating, houses becoming worth less, etc. I was not worried about misbehavior of protesters, but the police were scary. The police definitely were in a mood for a fight and it looks like the peacefulness came to an end after I left.

[The Toll]

The media have been pinning these protests on international anti-Bush/U.S. foreign policy, sentiment for 8 years now.

Today?
