Skateboarding Drug Dealers Spit On Occupiers, Eat Their Food & Chase Them From Park
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, December 6, 2011, 11:54 AM
It was a rough night for the #Occupy Portland loons. It wasn’t the cops and their pepper spray that chased them from their squatters camp. It was a gang of skateboarding drug dealers.
(M.Rafter)
A skateboard gang bullied Occupy Portland, ate their food, spit on them and chased them from their new location.
Blogtown reported, via Orbusmax:
Apparently just a little more than two hours ago, according to a handful of downcast occupiers huddling at nearby Director Park, Occupy Portland’s would-be reoccupation packed up in a hurry after drug dealers—and not more riot cops swinging batons—showed up with the promise of a clash.
I showed up about an hour and a half after the reported incident went down. About 15 people were sitting on the benches in Director Park, the movement’s most recent home for its general assemblies and spokes council meetings, with the remnants of today’s food. And many were decidedly unhappy—with what happened, and how occupiers either responded or didn’t.
Talk among some at Director Park was that drug dealers wielding skateboards surged in, ate some food, and spat in some occupiers’ faces while demanding they leave. Some reports said they were gang members, but that’s not confirmed. Either way, the campers packed up and boogied out, hoping to avoid more violence, which had some like Dog Mike, an organizer of the reoccupation, complaining that it looked like the movement was more willing to “kowtow” to drug dealers and not the city.
“All those people who were out here at 3 am dancing need to decide if it’s our park,” he said. “You’re willing to get beat up by riot cops, but you’re not willing to get beat up by gang members?”
Said another occupier, Troy Thompson, the guy who was arrested last night after scaling the second-floor roof of city hall and erecting a Guy Fawkes Christmas tree. “We could smash ‘em back, but what would that do to our movement? We’re not another street gang. We’re not here for a gang war.”
But another occupier who said she watched the confrontation argued it wasn’t as violent as some were claiming. Yes, some face-spitting happened, but only after a lone dealer—a pot dealer—asked the lingering campers to please leave and keep the police away from his previous place of business.

Hahahaha, this is so funny. One thing this proves. The cops aren’t beating these people up. Because if they were, these occuphants would have stood up to these skate boarders. This is hilarious.

Portland, the more I read about this city and the progs who run it the more it sounds like a OWS utopia.
DMartyr commented:
Where’s a cop when you need one?
Lol, after calling cops “pigs” and “cowards”, they’re surprised no police were around to help?

Capitalist drug dealers have won this round, ROTFLOL.

Skateboarding Drug Dealers Spit On Occupiers, Eat Their Food &…
Yeesh.
I’d never touch food that was kept by, or served to, Occupy idiots.
Gerry commented:
Skateboarding dope dealers= 1%
Mn Jim commented:
I call BS on this story. “Skateboarding drug dealers”?
Drug dealers woud not chase their OWS customers out of the park.
The OWS was routed by a group of skateboarders who wanted to use the park.
Witch commented:
What! No twinkles, or mike checks… No shouting them down and name calling, stealing their glasses or crapping on their skateboards?
Were they afraid that maybe these folks might respond with more than strong words and a little pepper spray followed by a ride to a nice warm jail?

That makes no sense. Please explain.

““You’re willing to get beat up by riot cops, but you’re not willing to get beat up by gang members?” – Dude, seriously? Where do you think they’re getting their drugs from? You think that they are going to go against Them? LOL.
Zim commented:
even drug dealers understand how free markets work
∅cat commented:
You made no sense in the Egypt election thread, so it’s obviously not a requirement to comment. Head on over to thinkregress or moveout, they’ll certainly appreciate your inanity.
dwd commented:
Occupiers are even ticking off hard working drug dealers. Who exactly do they think is left to sympathize with them???
wth commented:
The Occubags were obviously not considered to be paying clientele.
Stuart commented:
Skate boarding drug dealers =market forces. Who’d a thunk it. Ha Ha Ha .
Van commented:
#20 wth “The Occubags were obviously not considered to be paying clientele.” No job, no guts, no service.
WillofLa commented:
The Occupier’s are finding out reality has rung their bell again. When it’s the cops they ALL have a common cause. But when the Occupier’s find themselves pitted against the people who live on the street it’s a different story altogether. The cops won’t shoot the Occupier’s for violating their turf, the dope dealers will! The Park is where the dope dealers make their money, and the Occupier’s are scaring the business off. What the Occupier’s need to do is start buying more dope, then maybe the drug dealers will let them stay. Ha, ha, ha. This is so funny. These idiot Occupier’s are finding reality a whole lot different than they thought it would be. They thought that everybody supported their cause. Nope, they don’t.
Eddie Willers commented:
I’m reminded of a joke I heard a while back…
What’s the toughest thing about becoming a skateboarder?
Telling your parents that you’re gay…
I have to agree that the Portland Occupados were willing to be aggressive with the police tells you all you need to know about what level of force was being used against them. Because when the threat of real force reared its head they ran like frightened school girls.
Sorry if thst offended any school girls…
RCCA commented:
Reality is kind of nasty unlike the ows fantasy world where everyone is nice and cooperates to find consensus. Eventually the children will have to decide where they want to live, reality or fantasy, and will come home dragging their blankies behind them.

Too rich, what will they (OWS) do when rioting
In conservative gun tote permit states?! Lose.
Powder is dry
patman commented:
Soon the OWS loonies will have to start paying off the in-line skating gangs for protection.
S. Wolf commented:
They’d rather get beat up by police than drug dealers? Well, duh. The police at least will take them to a hospital before throwing them into jail, drug dealers won’t. Sounds to me like the occupier rabble are out of drug money and are keeping customers away.

It’s really easy to stand up to the city and the police. You know they won’t fight dirty or hurt you, but with criminals it’s a different matter.
#1AMERICAN commented:
awesome…time to thin the herds…go back and occupy mommy’s basement you pathethic losers
JBrenn commented:
Of course the occupiers are more willing to take on City Hall and riot police – and not the drug dealers. They can’t sue and monetize the drug dealers.
workingclass artist commented:
Drug Dealers are Capitalists too!
*snicker*
Texas_Treeroach commented:
Bless the drug dealers.
May their skateboards be forever lubricated.
May their spit be replenished twenty-fold.
(Also, bless their bladders, if they so choose to use them)
