St. Louis Police Major Lawrence O’Toole

ST. LOUIS (KMOX) – The Occupy Wall Street movement may make a move this week on the World Series.

Facebook chatter from the protesters suggests they are casting their eyes on Busch Stadium, coveting the national media spotlight surrounding the series.

Among the ideas floated among group members online: A massive rally, pitching tents around Busch Stadium or sending a streaker onto the field during the game “to send  a message.”

St. Louis Police Major Lawrence O’Toole says police will uphold the protesters’ Constitutional rights of assembly and free speech, but he’s concerned about a “lone wolf” causing trouble.

“There are times that we know that there are certain elements that can get drawn into large protests and other people who have other agendas,” O’Toole said. “

So far, the Occupy St. Louis protesters have kept a peaceful vigil in Kiener Plaza, several blocks from Busch Stadium.   A core group of about 20 to 30 have been spending the night in tents.  Last week they were joined by hundreds of labor protesters to march through the streets of downtown.

There were no arrests at the march, and so far only ten protestors have been arrested for “violating the park curfew.”

Police know of no threat against the World Series, but are working with the Secret Service to provide heightened security.

The St. Louis Cardinals report they are still awaiting word from the Secret Service and Major League Baseball about what security restrictions fans may encounter with First Lady Michelle Obama attending Wednesday night’s game.

Cards spokesman Ron Watermon says he expects it to be “much less invasive than a Presidential visit.”

But Watermon says there will be some additional security measures.  How they will affect fans is unclear. The ballpark will be open three hours ahead of the game on Wednesday to give everyone enough time to get inside.

    Hope they get a LOT of attention! This is a great opportunity for some national news!

    The baseball fans will kick their butts. People are sick and tired of these bums wasting our city resources. go home! you are not wanted here!!!!

  • pitter43

    That kind of treatment of traitors is long overdue.

    Sending a streaker would be a perfect example of the childish mindset of these miscreants.

    Another group of 30 people ginning up media attention. Yawn.

  • jeff

    these occupy people seem to be well fed. life can’t be that bad

  • pynaetlb

    Occupying a park and disrupting our nation past time are two very different things. I’d be real interested to see how long they’d be allowed to disrupt the world series. My guess is about five minutes. OWS just doesn’t understand that they’re being used by this socialist administration to keep the democrat scams like Solyndra off of the front page. But the democrats are owned by Wall Street and any attempt to cause the big money men to lose money will be slammed to the ground real fast. I hope they try, they need a lesson in just how powerless they are.

  • 99%

    Amazing that most of you still don’t get it. S’okay, when your bank closes and your retirement savings are pilfered to float a loan to the IMF, then maybe you’ll stand up.

    “”. The ballpark will be open three hours ahead of the game on Wednesday to give everyone enough time to get inside.”"”

    3 hours? Mores security theater. How much of this will people put up with? I thought sports fans were supposed to be manly or something like that, but they will probably put up with it out of fear.

    The TSA is taking naked pictures of everyone who walks through an airport and VIPER teams are beginning to go across the USA doing the same thing at train stations and random highway stops.

    Would Thomas Jefferson let some bureaucrat take naked pictures of his wife and daughter?

  • MacCane

    53% to 99% – are you for real? Think that comment through a bit. Who bailed out the banks? Who bailed out ‘too big to fail’ greedy corporations? Who is taking jobs overseas and who is facilitating that through unfavorable tax laws here, oppressive and unreal environmental restrictions? Who gives money to the IMF today?

  • Codeman

    99% wow you have a computer? Where was it made? North Korea?

  • God Save America

    It’s Bush’s fault that these Tea Partiers are causing so much trouble, or something like that. I forget the Democrats’ current official excuse for their own actions.

  • DocHolliday

    There’s no Socialism in baseball. There’s no Communism in baseball. This is America’s pasttime. Would the “Tea Party” disrupt the World Series? No way.
    But these trust fund pirates, and losers, and leftists and idiots want to disrupt the World Series. Clueless and no class!!

  • pitter43

    I’ve heard that more people that want America destroyed have been sending donations, but I suspect these children have never suffered for much.

  • Frustrated in TX

    You are as big an idiot as those so called “protesters”. They are being used by Van Jones, George Soros and the like and they don’t know or don’t care. It’s a sad testament to our school system and the liberal agenda that has gone on way too long in this country.

  • moronpolitics

    We;ll that’s a GREAT beautiful stadium we have here in Texas. One of the most impressive buildings I have ever walked into. Now, what we do with coyotes is we shoot them and hang them on the fence so the other coyotes see them and know not to come around. Not that I am saying we should shoot these folk and hang them up in that concourse…. I just remembered about the coyotes for some reason.

  • Chad

    It appears, at current, the OWS members will not have to rely on a “retirement Savings” do to their lack of job (well maybe their trust fund). So you or they will need to rely on me to ‘get by’ in their/your elderly years. Since I vote, and have a successful business, I rule. So come on out to the farm, I have a nice piece of land you can ‘OCCUPY’ will you WORK. Welcome to the 21st Century Serfdom. Bow before me.

    It’s really sad to see these privileged college kids get progressively more desperate for attention; if only their parents payed more attention to them instead of giving them everything they wanted growing up and paying their way through school.

  • AFSGTSAM

    Banks are insured by the FDIC so that argument is moot. How about the government running trillion dollar defectis, spending my gradkids paycheck to fund entitlements to a bunch of lazy self indulgent dolts.

  • Barry bin Inhalin

  • AFSGTSAM

    The same 53% who are watching the Govt borrow money from our grandkids to fund trillions of dollars in entitlements to people who dont earn them.

  • AFSGTSAM

    Exactly Bill..this never has been a very big movement…even in NY there are what about 2000 max there. I went to two tea party rallies each had 10-15 times that many there. The media wants this to grow so badly!

  • snapperboy

    Guess the police should register their concerns with the president of the United States – or maybe with the Communist Party, Chavez, Ahmadinejad, the Socialists or the Ayatolla. Wow, is Barry in good company or what?

    This is all about Free Speech. After all, censorship is everywhere. The gov’t (and their big business cronies) censor free speech, shut down dissent and ban the book “America Deceived II”. Free speech for all.

    They have already gotten far more attention than they deserve consider how small this really is…..a few thousand at best. The meida wants to make a lot of this when there is really nothing there.

  • Arie

    These people have the right to protest. By the way, what is their message? They also have the right to demand that I pay more taxes so that they don’t have to. For me to pay more taxes so they don’t have to work. For me to pay more taxes so that they are more privledged. For me to pay more taxes to listen to their anti Semetic rants. For me to pay more taxes so that they can defecate and have sex in public places. For me to pay more taxes so that the main stream media can liken these people and their message to the Tea Party. What a sad state of affairs it is that the Democrat Party would embrace their message. If these people had any brains they would target their frustration at the White House which is the source of the policy creating these problems; not Wall Street.

    Too bad the FDIC couldn’t back the failure of a big bank like BOA, Citi, or US Bank even if they wanted to. Any of those go down and FDIC goes down with it, that is why we bailed them out instead of letting them go bankrupt and auctioning off their assets.

  • George Buchanan

    Dams str8. Read another article chronicling theft at the OWS camps. No thief would attempt such a thing at a Tea Party rally — pretty sure more than a few are armed and appropriately trained. Then again, Tea Partiers go home at night to care for their families.

    Most of these comments are ridiculous as no one from OccupySTL wants to invade Bush stadium or disrupt the World Series. Also most of the commenters do not seem to have a clue about what we are advocating – so come on by after the game and talk to us.

  • Montford John Greenwood

    Protests are not supposed to be comfortable.

    He’s wearing it and that stupidity still comes through.

  • paul

    there you go. it sure stopped them in the middle east. but then americans are a gutless lot, inferior to those forieners in the arab world so it probably would work better here than in ,say, syria

  • Donna

    So what are you advocating????????? Seems to be a noncoherent rant, rather than a message. Only message I seem to get is You want it all, but not do anything to get it.

  • Stl_Ronin

    Ironic that 99% of the OccupySTL crowd has NO CLUE what they are advocating. Of course that is to be expected when a small grassroots local protest is co-opted by Soros Monkeys and SEIU thugs.

  • swampfox

  • Robert Muller

    They should have broken this up when it started. Like with bloomy in NY he put his tail between his legs and ran away. Now if Giuliani was there he would have cleaned it up on the first night, now it costs NY MILLIONS

  • EDinAZ

    Is it possible to just have our national pastime NOT disrupted by some protest. I hope that the police and secret service enforce the law and keep them all out of the surrounds of the stadium. BTW, why is an obvious White Sox fan coming to the game. Keep her in DC where she belongs, and keep the so-called pres out of the state also

  • glenn pate

    That is just the reserve the “motel” shock troop. I’m sure they have paid for all the required licenses and permits that the tea party and any other group would have to obtain Yeh, right? And, of course, there are no restrictions on setting up tent city? The cops could stop this without infringing on their “rights” if they just enforced the laws now, or had that done it originally.

  • KENYAN USURPER OCCUPIES WHITE HOUSE

  • Reese Forbes

    Your comment is silly Donny “not do anything to get it” Maybe you have not seen the signs, many are about JOBS. People want work. Many of these peaceful protesters work full time, or are students and come after their job or college class to spend time at OccupySTL instead of partying.

  • Reese Forbes

    Wrong – you probably do not remember Chicago 1969 where police went on a riot against protesters. Not only did the court battles cost the city megabucks (the city lost) but it killed the convention business in that city for almost 20 years costing
    Chicago BILLIONS.
    Trying to breakup a Populist movement by police action is stupid and the Mayor of St Louis and the police in the city realize it.

  • VotersOfNY

    I keep telling you what to do. Put them all on buses and take them out to the boondocks and then let them go. No arrests, just let them go and let them figure out how to get home. Do that enough times and these filthy, slimeballs will stop protesting.

  • Michelle

    Exactly. OccupyStL is more than 20 or 30 people. We are not all white trust fund babies or poor college students. We are your waitress, your accountant, your doctor, and your neighbor. We are everywhere. We are the 99%. Do not expect us. We are here.

    Also, rest assured that OccupyStL does not condone illegal activities, or acts of a violent nature, at any time.

    Enjoy your game, St. Louis.

  • Wally

    Be sure to have enough french fries in the stadium for Mooch-chelle.

  • MorganGray

    Nah, man, let ‘em keep on protesting. Let the Pee Partiers keep protesting, relieving themselves on police cars, doing drugs and fornicating in public. Let the not-so-great unwashed keep polluting places with their trash and stink, and … less pleasant substances. Let them continue to assault reporters with whom they disagree. Let them keep spitting on men and women wearing the uniform of our armed services. Let the President, and Pelosi, and Reid ant that crowd keep backing them. The Flea Baggers are the best thing for a GOP candidate since Lincoln.

  • Hmm

    As a visitor with family in St. Louis, I believe St. Louis does not tolerate ANYthing or ANYone corrupting the relationship of St. Louisans and their Cardinals and their World Series chances. Woe to the “Occupy-Whatever-Serves-(me)” movement if they choose to manipulate the World Series games in St. Louis!!!

  • MorganGray

    Hey 99%, tell me something; when was the last time you were hired to work for a poor person?
    Or more to the point, have you ever been hired to work – period?
    I get it.
    I get it that you are what Mao called a “useful idiot”. You think you’re all socially aware and socially active, and that you “identify” with the poor.
    But, I also see that you are online. That you own some kind of computer.
    That computer was built by a company which took a loan from a bank.
    The OWS hypocrites have a bank account of … what? Several hundred thousand dollars? Or is it into the millions by now?
    OWS is selling merchandise on e-bay and using a bank for their profits.

    What’s next? The Tri-Lateral Commission? Bilderbergers? Illuminati? Gnomes of Zurich? Atlantis? The Mother Ship?

    Oh, and your hero, Obama has what? Over a billion dollars in the bank so he can steal or buy the next election.

    I’ll say it again, you are either a useful idiot, willfully stupid, or a hypocrite.

  • John

    If these dirtbags want to really lose favor with the American people, disrupting the series will do it. No doubt, Barry will be all for it.

  • MorganGray

    And, how did he / she / it buy that computer? Or was the computer stolen from some evil corporate store?

  • Anonymous

    Let them protest, nothing like watching a bunch of republicans whine like little girls over them – when it was the tea party, they are patriots, when it is from the other side they are a mob – sorry, even a third grader can read through the hypocrisy.

  • MorganGray

    More important, like a bunch of dope-smoking, narcissistic, greedy, self-important, fools slouching around in public, yelling, “notice me, notice me”?

    More important than a crowd of hypocrites who decry wealth, then go out and post to comment blogs like this, using computers manufactured by evil rich corporations, while their backers and supporters live in royal luxury?

    Yup. Baseball is far more important than you, biter.

    Reality? Not hardly.

  • TBone

    My family cancelled a trip to NYC on account of the Occupy bunch and I think that is one of the ploys; disrupt commerce in favor of anarchy. These are seriously commited folks and what they are commited to ain’t American.

  • SunnyJ

    I was thinking the same thing…man, do not get in the way of a baseball fan with tickets to a world series game…that would be a death wish for sure! I say this is where you separate the real agenda, and the rich kids playing hippie radicals…they will not stick their face into fist distance of a diehard Cardinals fan.

  • John Galt

    Yes and when the crowd roundly Boo’s you for hijacking this event and ruining what should be a great expereince don’t be surprised. When they throw garbage at you for streaking at the event and public opinion turns downward don’t be shocked. These kids think Capitalism is the problem, if they cracked open a book they would realize they have a real problem with Corporatism which isn’t capitalism. Corporatism is a Bi-Partisan problem and both parties are at fault. But yeah, go ahead and ruin an American Tradition, give us another reason to hate you, thank God we don’t have Smell O Vision.

  • pitter43

    If those clowns are ” peaceful protesters”, I’d hate to see protesters that aren’t peaceful.

  • SunnyJ

    Exactly what the Tea Party has been saying all along only, they want to work within the system and keep all that is good…not denigrate the flag, call the Jews names, break laws and call for revolution for the “people” while they hurt those same “people” with their antics. The 99% has put $300,000 in a bank account from donations…that makes them rich..that makes them the 1%…now they have to eat their own, right? No wait, now they’re capitalists and trying to figure out how to make mroe for themselves…why don’t they practice what they preach and send it in to the US Government they love so much and tell them to use it well, like they scold the rest of us to do? I’m waiting?….I’m still waiting?

  • AFSGTSAM

    Reese if they truly wanted jobs they would have them the fact is these are a bunch of bums and losers who would rather smoke pot and live off other peoples earnings…the things they are truly worried about is we are finally out of other peoples money and they may actually have to work to survive.

  • cntrlfrk


    They will do what Obama tells them to do.

    They are nothing more than Astro-Turf Pawns and won’t bother the super-rich pro-athletes or Hollywood that supports Obama.

    They will only attack the corporations that produce the goods and services we need.

    1968 was the height of the hippie movement. The country was so revolted by the sight that Republicans held the Presidency for the next 22 years, minus one “oopsie” term of the failure, Jimmy Carter. History has a way of repeating itself.

    If you’re conservative, pray this movement follows Obama into the next election season! Mobs like this don’t get LESS frustrated, wacky, and violent…and the coverage will be splendid for our election prospects next year.

    Of course, that won’t matter to the media who will report it as “probably a right wing Tea Party fanatic”. And when the truth is learned, that story will be buried on page 38D of the NYT. No wonder a recent poll showed that the majority of “independent voters” think she was shot by a right wing fanatic.

    Now tell me how the MSM is not biased. Because if he WAS a Tea Party guy, the media would ensure his name was as infamous as Ted Bundy, and always preceded by the moniker Tea Party Fanatic…

Just get out of our way.

  • Lois Tyli

    St. Louisans generally have an attitude of “live and let live.” However, it is certain folly to get between them and their beloved Cardinals. I predict any protesters that try to take the attention away from the Cardinals’ 19th trip to the World Series will be pummeled with stuffed rally squirrels by a red-clad mob led by Fredbird.

  • Russ

    I hope they DO interrupt the World Series. Show the rest of the country what a bunch of out-of-control street morons they are, certainly not just some grass-roots movement as I am sure Pelosi or Obama would want folks to believe.

    Baseball is a summer game designed for children to get some fresh air. Any grown man who has any interest in the World Series is fiddling while Rome burns.

    I totally agree. These people have no idea why they are even out there. Check out this website: http://sharpelbowsstl.blogspot.com/. One video shows a guy offering these greasers jobs. Harly anyone accepts his offer. Another asks these smelly hippies why they are out there and they don’t even know what their message is. These people quite simply dont have jobs and they want the “system” to support them just like any other liberal democrat.

    You do realize that the ‘bail out’ were loans, and that for the most part they were all paid back by 2009, and the Federal Government made a small profit on it. Not like the bailout of GM and Chrysler. Why aren’t these useful idiots protesting the real villains, the current administration that OKs these loans and bailouts, and GM and Chrysler who will never pay it back. Is it because they don’t have a clue about how things really work, and are only listening to the soundbites their handlers are giving them??? Or do they just want any excuse to get some attention and not have to accept blame for their own personal failure at life.

  • LTG

    Let them be. Don’t dignify their lame protests with enforcement beyond jailing them if they get out of hand. When they get tired of wallowing in their own urine and feces they will go home.and find a job. It may not be the job they want but entry level jobs rarely are, even for those who have college degrees. Spoiled brats expect it all upfront, however, without paying their dues.

  • LTG

    Anyone looked at the Russian revolution lately and the bloodshed that it produced? These radicals would be glad to see that happen here. It’s in the rules for radicals. They don’t want reform. They want fundamental change and they want to do away with the Constitution. Lenin did not start the revolution in Russia. He just moved in to take advantage of the vacuum of leadership that was a result of the revolution. The same thing will happen here if it spreads, so don’t give them the time of day unless they get violent then nip it in the bud! They are clueless as to what they are doing and who is using them.

    I don’t t believe O’Toole in St. Louis or for that matter anyone in the eastern states have to worry about theses protests going on for much longer. The weather has been nice and sunny so it has been easy for these kind of people to hang out and do a pseudo-protest. Looks like they are now in for some cold and very raining days and nights which means they will pack up their non-directional tantrum and go go back to their parents basement.

    Americans, we have Millions of our Americans out of work, many been without a job for over 3 years now, and many of you saying these peiople should not be protesting or that these Americans should not ruin your Baseball Game—WELL—-think again——-Not so long ago the Baseball Owners & Teams demanded more money to play, not long ago the NFL demanded more money too & NOW the NBA is placing demands for more money. How about gettting your American values & priorities back in line with the many needs for JOBS FOR ALL AMERICANS. How would you feel if you had been jobless, homeless & hungry and unable to provide for your kids——-AND ALL MANY AMERICANS WERE WQRRIED ABOUT WAS A BASEBALL GAME 111111111111
    Or for that matter—-Any sport game where these players & owners make more than any average American will see if their lifetime????????????

    Although I am glad these sports give jobs to AMericans other than the owners & players, Get Real in the direction our AMerica is going. If you have never been without a job, without a place to live, without food, without other Americans caring to make creating and maintaining jobs in AMerica, then you in fact have NO IDEA WHAT IT IS TO BE IN A LAND WHERE HOPE & opporitunity is currently known as “IN THE PAST.”
    Many of us Americans want to work and still have “Work Ethics” willing & eager to work but their are just No Jobs To Be Found..

    NoJobaPalooza is quite comical. Notice how many of the protestors have Smart Phones and other luxuries? What would/do our parents/grand parents/great grand parents who lived through the Great Depression think of these clowns???

    I would like to see the people from Wall Street who caused this financial mess in prison, too, along with all the others such as those running the Unions.

    99% of the 99% of the NoJobaPalooza Festival Goers don’t even understand who is really to blame for this mess. For the most part, they are blaming all rich people. That is illogical and immature.

  • david

  • Kathi Corbett-Otto

    It is amazing how many people are repeating the lies of the corporate-owned main-stream media with intense rancor and no idea what is actually going on with OWS or OSTL. They attack the way people look, accuse people of ideologies that have nothing whatsoever to do with the people involved, because they refuse to understand the issues.
    The message is clear – our government has been bought by corporations and banks who are using it to destroy the constitutional rights of the people, concentrating the majority of wealth in the hands of the already extremely wealthy, creating tax breaks for themselves while reducing the pay and raising the costs of living on the working people, reducing benefits and trying to destroy the ability of the working people to negotiate for safe and fair working conditions, while they send our jobs to people overseas whom they can abuse with impunity. We want the government out of our personal lives, doing what the’re supposed to do – represent the best interests of the people by assuring equality and protecting us from the abuse of power. Banks and corporations aren’t people; they’ve been given the rights of people with none of the responsiblities.
    No one is asking for a hand out – those without jobs want to work. We are taxpayers and we love our country – we just want it back in the hands of the people. We don’t mind paying taxes – but we do mind the fact that we pay a higher percentage of tax on $10k worth of income than BofA pays on several trillion worth because of loopholes and tax breaks.
    Before you condemn people, know the facts – if you can’t argue against the issues, it’s simply childish to start complaining about how people are dressed – especially when you’re wearing tea bags.

  • Kathi Corbett-Otto

    BTW – I’ve reported every single one of you who has posted threats of violence against people exercising their first amendment rights to peaceful protest. I encourage all peace-loving people, regardless of your political or ideological beliefs, to do the same.
    Dialogue is impossible when people practice violence, when people practice hatred, when people blindly believe what other hateful people say.
    Last night there was a man who logged into the livestream chat who was spam-posting hateful and vulgar comments that were threatening. Three of us responded by inviting him to tell us what he hated so much about us practicing our constitutional rights – he spewed the usual stuff about people being freeloaders, unemployed/unemployable, smelly, pot-smoking communists. None of which is true. Rather than return the hateful comments, we took the peaceful approach – we asked his opinion about the things we’re protesting. By the end of the conversation, he admitted he was wrong, said he agreed with what we were saying, apologized for trolling us, and thanked us for explaining ourselves – and said he’d come down to the protests to check it out for himself.
    THAT IS HOW DEMOCRACY WORKS, PEOPLE!

    The Tea Party is financed by 1% billionaires who are known as the Koch brothers. If you haven’t been to the real Occupy Wall Street protest information site and you are only aware of what the msm has been putting out there about the Occupy protests then you really need to go to this website http://occupywallst.org/ before you continue to embarrass yourself with uninformed negative comments.

  • JDM

    The Tea Party are great peace loviing patriots?!?
    Are we talking about the same Tea Party That:
    - Demonstrated in the halls of Congress, spat on Congressional Representatives?
    - Went to city meetings, screamed and yelled nonsense to disrupt the proceedings?
    - Harbors racists and hate mongers?
    - Is backing that nut job Michelle Bachmann?

    OWS has done NONE of this. They have been beaten by the police, maced for no reason, demonized for exercising our first ammedment rights. I wish you all could educate yourself a bit. This movement is not political, in spite of what you hear on faux news and CNN. Both the left and right fear them. The movement isn’t left or right. Its both, its a peoples’ movement. There are republicans, democrats, blacks, whites, asians, and any other ist or ism you can list.

    Many of the people occupying Kiener have jobs.. I know because I’m one of them. I occupy not to end capitalism. I am a capitalist..

    I occupy because:
    - its not right that the banks can lobby to be deregulated, destroy the economy, get a bailout, and then not do anything any differently or face any consequences.
    - its not right that I pay taxes, but GE (a gigantic corporation) pays 0.00 in taxes.
    - I’m tired of candidates making promises to end wars and bring change, then making things ever worse
    - I’m tired of being forced to play a game that no one ever wins.
    - I occupy for all of 99% whether they realize i’m there for them or not. (and unless you made over 300K last year, you’re part of the 99%)

    I don’t want anyone to give me anything they’ve earned. I just feel that there has to be a way to fix this mess. And if you don’t think anything is wrong, thats a HUGE problem. The people in Kiener plaza have every right to be there. The first ammedment gives them the right to free speech and to peacefully assemble. The constitution overrides state and local laws.. They’ve done nothing wrong. Public Space is Public Space 24 hours a day!!. Guess what haters, we’re not going anywhere.. and our numbers grow daily. When you finally wake up and see that you’re part of the 99%, we’ll be here waiting for you

    “Suicide Tape Transcript”

    Shortly after November 18, 1978 a tape emerged from the ruins of Jonestown. It appeared to be an audio recording of the actual death scene.

    JONES: All they do is taking a drink. They take it to go to sleep. That’s what death is, sleep. You can have it (inaudible) I’m tired of it all.

    WOMAN 15: Everything we could have ever done, most loving thing all of us could have done, and it’s been a pleasure walking with all of you in this revolutionary struggle. No other way I would rather go to give my life for socialism, communism, and I thank Dad very, very much.

    WOMAN 16: Right. Yes, eh. Dad’s love and nursing, goodness and kindness and bring us to this land of freedom. His love–his mother was the advance –the advance guard to socialism. And his love (inaudible) will go on forever unto the fields of–

    JONES: Where’s the vat, the vat, the vat? Where’s the vat with the Green C on it? The vat with the Green C in. Bring it so the adults can begin.

    WOMAN 16: Go on unto the sing, and thank you Dad.

    JONES: (Inaudible.) … Don’t, don’t fail to follow my advice. You’ll be sorry. You’ll be sorry. If we do it, than that they do it. Have trust. You have to step across. (Music.) We used to think this world was–this world was not our home–well, it sure isn’t–we were saying–it sure wasn’t.
    He doesn’t want to tell them. All he’s doing–if they will tell them– assure these kids. Can’t some people assure these children of the relaxation of stepping over to the next plane? They set an example for others. We said –one thousand people who said, we don’t like the way the world is.

    VOICE: Take some.

    JONES: Take our life from us. We laid it down. We got tired. We didn’t commit suicide, we committed an act of revolutionary suicide protesting the conditions of an inhumane world.

    Breitbart offers $10k reward for proof that n-word was hurled at John Lewis
    11:06 am March 26, 2010, by jgalloway

    Andrew Breitbart, on his Big Government web site, is offering $10,000 for proof that U.S. Rep. John Lewis was assaulted with the n-word last Saturday in the run-up to the vote on health care.
    This is the same web site that first put up the footage of ACORN staffers in Baltimore, giving advice on how to avoid paying taxes on cash acquired through prostitution.
    By way of backbround: Last Saturday, as they went to the U.S. Capitol to hear a final speech on health care, Lewis and other African-American congressmen passed by a crowd of mostly white tea party protestors.

    The protests were started by the tea partiers on the right, not liberals.

  • lone star

    there wont be any of that racket going on in arlington, tx at Ranger Staduim. we dont allow liberal sisses to protest. I’ll keep my guns, freedom, you keep the change. god bless john wayne

    I hope the protesters absolutely cause a mess for the World Series. I hope they ruin the days of thousands of other Americans, and cause financial devastation for thousands more. The fastest way to put an end to the protests and the Obama presidency, as well as the democrats in charge, is to disrupt the lives of everyday Americans to a big extent. Let it happen. We can then dispatch Obama in 2012, take back the Senate, throw out the remaining RINOS, and get our country back on track.

    Peaceful? Hardly. I would also add that Soviet Russia is precisely a role model for the majority of protesters. Duh.
