They had their 15 minutes, they had their day in the sun and they had their fun. Now the NYPD is doing the right thing by squashing this insanity before it can regurgitate itself. A bunch of us out there made some good money while it went on and don't get me wrong, I enjoyed that money and would enjoy any future financial gain, but my bottom line is, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

New York police probe 'kill a cop' tweet linked to 'Occupy Wall Street' protests AP March 18, 2012: An unidentified Occupy Wall Street protester is arrested early in Zuccotti Park after a march in celebration of the protest's sixth month, on Saturday, in New York. With the city's attention focused on the huge St. Patrick's Day Parade many blocks uptown, the Occupy rally drew a far smaller crowd than the demonstrations when the movement was at its peak in the fall. NEW YORK – New York City police were Sunday investigating an "Occupy Wall Street" protester who made threats on Twitter about killing police as hundreds clashed the previous day with cops at Zuccotti Park. "We won't make a difference if we don't kill a cop or 2," Twitter user "Smackema1" posted about 11:40pm with a link to Ustream, which was showing footage of the protests at the Lower Manhattan park where "Occupy Wall Street" began last September, the New York Post reported. The author also posted several other comments Saturday about the protests, the New York Daily News reported, and police are now seeking a subpoena to help them discover who was behind the tweet, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said. An anonymous man claiming to be behind the tweets later defended them to the Daily News, saying, "It's not like I meant anything of it. Who takes anything like that seriously? I'm in Florida, what am I going to do?" He said he had never attended an "Occupy Wall Street" protest, but had followed them online. Police also said Sunday they were separately investigating threats made to two cops and their families. There were 73 people arrested Saturday when protesters returned to Zuccotti Park to mark six months since the "Occupy Wall Street" movement's inception. Fourteen of the arrests were made before officers raided the gathering, police sources told FOX News Channel.

If these idiots are representative of our future leaders, we are f***ing doomed. Kind of makes me hope the Mayans are right.
Van Jones group plans American’s “Arab Spring” revolt An Egypt-styled “Arab Spring,” which has put radicals in charge of the government, will be launched in the United States this spring with a war on “corporate power, Wall Street greed and the political corruption of the 1 percent,” according to the group headed by former Obama green aide Van Jones. “They’re really not going to like the 99 percent Spring,” said Rebuild the Dream in an organizing email Friday. Comparing the collection of protests last year that are symbolized by the 99 percent campaign and Occupy movement, to those of Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr., the group said that “we were all inspired by the protesters of the Arab Spring who stood up to totalitarian governments, and inspired the Occupy movement here in America.” http://washingtonexaminer.com/polit...-plans-american’s-“arab-spring”-revolt/453666
