Gee… Who could have seen this coming?

The locals already complained that they want everything for free. And they are democrats, after all. So it really is no surprise that theft is the biggest problem at Occupy Wall Street.
The New York Post reported, Via JWF:
It’s a den of thieves!
Occupy Wall Street protesters said yesterday that packs of brazen crooks within their ranks have been robbing their fellow demonstrators blind, making off with pricey cameras, phones and laptops — and even a hefty bundle of donated cash and food.
“Stealing is our biggest problem at the moment,” said Nan Terrie, 18, a kitchen and legal-team volunteer from Fort Lauderdale.
“I had my Mac stolen — that was like $5,500. Every night, something else is gone. Last night, our entire [kitchen] budget for the day was stolen, so the first thing I had to do was . . . get the message out to our supporters that we needed food!”
Crafty cat burglars sneaked into the makeshift kitchen at Zuccotti Park overnight and swiped as much as $2,500 in donated greenbacks from right under the noses of volunteers who’d fallen asleep after a long day whipping up meals for the hundreds of hungry protesters, the volunteers said.
“The worst thing is there’s people sleeping in the kitchen when they come, and they don’t even know about it! There are some really smart and sneaky thieves here,” Terrie said.
“I had umbrellas stolen, a fold-up bed I brought because my back is bad — they took that, too!”

The Communists are just learning that there’s bad people that steal their computers, money, blankets, and their revolutions? Does anybody still study history?

Must be those greedy bankers

Well, we already knew that they didn’t understand human nature. I mean, who takes their $5500 Mac and leaves it lying around on a pile of stuff (OK, maybe it was inside a tent) on the street. Idiots! Not to mention that he had his $5500 Mac at a protest against evil capitalistic corporations.

I guess it doesn’t help to call the NYPD now does it!!!

No surprise, it’s just future Dem congressmen in training. . . .

Greed.
It’s not just for the rich.

Will the “99%” start to get a clue? Nah…

I am shocked, I tell you, shocked!
Sam Stone commented:
Well it IS appropriate! The fleabaggers want to take wealth form those who have more than they do and some fleabaggers have more than some other fleabaggers so taking form those that have more is what they are there for correct?

Thieves, like corrupt politicians, love the gullible.

It would seem to me that anybody who even owns a $5500 Mac has absolutely NOTHING to protest about!

And this is supposed to surprize me?

Great story. Want to hear more just like this one…

Could this mean that there are people at OWS who do not honor the concept of “private property rights”?

Jim, what is this – the ‘Feel Good’ story of the day? ROFL
JKB commented:
This is not stealing. They’ve been successful in their protest but they use the roads paid for by others. They use the tables paid for by others. There is this “social contract.” They should be proud to give back.

So that is why we don’t see homeless people with laptops!!! What a shocker.
progressoverpeace commented:
Only millionaires and billionaires have $5500 Macs. Obviously, this was a justified expropriation.
labwriter commented:
Security volunteer Harry Wyman, 22, has “vowed to get tough” with the predators.
What’s he going to do–whine them into submission? Gee, here’s an idea: CALL THE COPS. I bet they’ll be happy to rush right down and help out. Or maybe Obama would send some goons to beat these people up so that Harry and friends don’t have to get their precious little hands dirty. RENDITION FOR OWS! Heh.
Obama Nation commented:
Stealing say it’s not so comrades. Perhaps they are not stealing prehaps simply redistributing the wealth amounst themselves. (sarcasm)
