#OWS Protesters Celebrate Thanksgiving By Harassing & Spitting On Cops

New York Occupy Wall Street protesters squabbled with police today after locals complained about the drum playing. The protesters argued with the police until they agreed to shelve the drumming for the day. In San Diego an Occupy protester was arrested for spitting on a cop.
The leftists just couldn’t help themselves.
The AP reported:
While the celebration remained peaceful in San Francisco, an amplified version of a family Thanksgiving squabble erupted in New York when police ordered a halt to drumming by protesters at an otherwise traditional holiday meal.
About 500 protesters were digging into donated turkey and trimmings at lower Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park when police told a drummer to drop playing.
About 200 protesters surrounded a group of about 30 officers and began shouting in the park where the Occupy movement was launched Sept. 17.
“Why don’t you stop being cops for Thanksgiving?” yelled one protester.
“Why don’t you arrest the drummers in the Thanksgiving parade?” hollered another.
A van rolled up with more officers, but they stayed back as protesters eventually decided to call off the drumming and return to their food. Tensions have run high at the park since campers were evicted Nov. 15.
Protester Chris Coon wandered into Zuccotti in a Santa Claus suit with a list of “naughty” people that included former President George W. Bush, former Vice President Dick Cheney and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
“Bank of America foreclosed on the North Pole, then I flew here in my sleigh and the NYPD towed my sleigh,” Coon said. “So now I’m here in Zuccotti Park protesting the 1 percent.”
In San Diego, four Occupy protesters were arrested between midnight and 2 a.m. Thursday at an encampment at the City’s Civic Center Plaza, said Officer David Stafford. Three were taken into custody for sleeping overnight in public, while the fourth was arrested for spitting on an officer, Stafford said.

Plz have that officer tested for AIDS, rabies and every communicable disease known to man including TB and leprosy.
These are Obama’s and Pelosi’s people we are talking about
Patty commented:
Was Obama the Grinch? That has stole Christmas from the Unemployed Americans. And the comment about Police not being police for Thanksgiving is coming from an ignoramus.
But they all are now aren’t they. I think these are the remains of ONE FLEW OVER THE COOCOO’S NEST.
These losers make not sense at all. They destroy property, spit their germs on the police, some could have highly contagious diseases and yet, they walk the street like zombies.
They are a waste of tax payers dollars and I hope they all get their sorry a$$es locked up.
Patty commented:
Again, if an officer is bitten, stabbed, spit in open area they are routinely check for aids. And this an ongoing process that last months.
They need to be checked frequently and their home life is affected. They can bring this into family. Until the are release and free of infection then they can go on with normal routines.
This is the price an officer pays and that is not withstanding being shot injured or killed.

Occupying public spaces and being noisy doesn’t change a dam*** thing.

After almost three months of this crap, the petulant children of the Occupy mobs still haven’t decided what it is they’re whining about, let alone what it is they think will remedy their incoherent list of complaints. From everything I’ve seen, it’s a group of spoiled wanna-be hippies, communists and anarchists, egged on by self-serving union thugs more focused on how much chaos they can cause than on solving a damned thing. It seems to be some sort of a destructive game to see just how far they can push social unrest before the public runs out of patience and law enforcement is forced to act. Our politicians are reacting with the predictable impotent cowardice they usually display, blowing with the wind and trying not to offend anybody with a potential vote. The media continue to blow on the flame every chance they get, hoping for some really juicy tragedy, as usual.
We’ve seen this kind of incoherent behavior before, not in the 1960′s, but in the 1930′s. On top of all the economic misery caused by the Depression, socialists, communists, anarchists and union goons thrived, causing as much unrest as possible, aggravating an already unstable economy and helping nobody but themselves, and hurting the common people they claimed to be so concerned about. It was about power then, and it’s about power today.
Everybody seems to be hoping these Urban Outfitters clowns are just going to get bored and go home. At some point, the grown ups have to step up and put a stop to this before somebody gets hurt. Trouble is, were running short of grown ups.
Ohio Granny commented:
I don’t understand, in OWS, these people are on ‘public/private’ property so the property owners should be held accountable – legally and financially for whatever their demonstators do or cost. These people have finace teams and legal teams and PR firms so the cities should just SEND THEM THE BILL. The same is true in every city where they take useful idiots, or if we read Animal Farm, the mules, to do the grunt work but the pigs stay warm and well fed and keep the cash, then why are not the governments using and imposing those laws they would use and impose on any other group?
Honestly, if we don’t do something soon, then these nut jobs will be occupying the White House in 40 years too.
DavidD commented:
Chris Coon sounds like a real loser. Bush and Cheney left office almost 3 years ago but they’re still the bogeymen?
Sam Stone commented:
I was listening to Frank Zappa yesterday and heard a line that seems so prophetic from the song HUNGRY FREAKS DADDY.
“The left-behinds of the Great Society, Hungry freaks, Daddy . . .”
tommy mc donnell commented:

When can we start charging the supporters and organizers of Occupy for the tremendous costs that they are imposing on the taxpayers and on local businesses?

“Spray it, don’t say it” is a common idiom among JAULs. Was Emanuel Cleaver there?
