Whose university?

Saint DH · 11-19-2011, 04:47 PM

You can be arrested for calling police officers obnoxious, arrogant, and ignorant? Seems like that would be a violation of rights.

Ugly Bastard · 11-19-2011, 08:58 PM

I harassed a police officer in Scottsdale once and somehow miraculously didn't get put in cuffs like I should have. Didn't realize at the time that screaming "does it make you feel better about your little dicks to put my friend [blonde] in handcuffs?" was actually illegal.

Saint DH · 11-19-2011, 09:31 PM

How is that considered illegal?

Is it consider like threatening a police officer?

Ugly Bastard · 11-19-2011, 11:56 PM

Harassing a police officer I think.

f3lix · 11-20-2011, 10:14 AM

One of these days, a police act like this is going to get a lot of people killed.

Repugnant Abomination · 11-20-2011, 01:45 PM

Hard not to sympathize with peaceful protesters when police use unnecessary force like this.

What a jerkoff.

It's been done to death, this isn't a funny version, the guy problem liked Steve Jobs for instance, just another money is bad circle jerk.

Do people honestly equate having a lot money with being a terrible person? All of them? More than a random sampling of people?

That they do more harm than good? That they do more net harm than an average person?

That they don't have a right to the money? How much is too much? Based on what?

That there is anything close to a cohesive group of 1%? That it isn't a bunch of wildly divergent goals, ideologies, and outright competitors?

Just more childish bullshit that does nothing but lose credibility.

Mr. Blonde · 11-22-2011, 02:44 AM

When people overreact like that in regard to OWS/any criticism, even in the face of attempted humor, it really makes them seem like a really insecure temporarily embarrassed millionaire, worried desperately about their future loss of income were enough people to criticize the wealthy.

That being said,

Ugly Bastard · 11-22-2011, 02:46 AM

Have to agree with Beebs on this one. That piece was so hyperbolic that it seemed like baseless, whiny crap.

Was it the most baseless whiny crap you've ever heard EVER!!!?

I'm going to sleep guys.

Only Blonde* would spend 15 minutes creating an image in the name of defending his views over something trivial.

*And probably 95% of Reddit users among others as well.

When it's time to break up the protest, how do you propose them to do so?

Saint DH · 11-22-2011, 02:02 PM

They don't want to be broken up so they can continue their "Woodstock-esque" gathering of lewdness, drunkeness, illegal drug abuse, and rape. Also, they want to continue defecating in the park/area of protest so that everyone has to smell their shit along with their rotting litter and trash.

lol!!!! What are you, 70?

Beebs · 11-22-2011, 05:17 PM

I don't think anybody was arguing that it was not an attempt at humor; just that it sucked. Also it was the "passive aggressive hide behind humor as an excuse while clearly spouting political ideas" type of humor, not the "ha ha" type of humor.

	Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing. ― Terence McKenna

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
