#Occupy Oakland Goons Torch US Flag – Throw Urine at Media

Obama’s #Occupy army held their weekly day of rage protest last night.
They torched another US flag.

Although the group’s website billed the event as a “militant” rally against police brutality, protesters remained peaceful during the more than five mile march. (AP/Noah Berger)

FOX News reported:

Dozens of Occupy Oakland demonstrators burned an American flag and marched through the streets Saturday night, a week after police fired tear gas to quell violent demonstrations and hundreds were arrested following a mass break-in at City Hall.

About 70 Occupy demonstrators began marching around 9 p.m. from City Hall en route to police headquarters, but a line of officers quickly blocked their path. Protesters veered off and began a winding, five-mile walk through city streets that ended nearly two hours later at their starting point.

The #occupiers also threw bottles of urine at the media.

It’s painful to watch our 1st Amendment right – being abused and distorted. That flag they watch burn symbolizes the very freedom our men and women died to provide. It sickens me to see pictures like this. Imo, burning our nation’s flag is an ACT OF WAR. If it were up to me – I’d throw each and every last one of them in Gitmo. If that makes me Dictator MustComment, so be it.

Obama is said to have tears of joy in his eyes when he saw the burning flag.

Let the main street media soak in urine. Just don’t get any on the flag though. That would make me pissed.

Burning the flag is NOT freedom of speech! It is the symbol of our country and to desecrate that symbol that so many have died for should be treated a crime. If these mindless idiots think this is such a bad place to live – GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! Cuba, Venezuela, Russia… then, let’s see just how much they’d want to come back.

They have no message – they are protesting just to protest. They don’t even realize that they are simple tools for the liberal left and their agenda.

Well, this is one burning of the flag, there have been many, You can’t tell me that our resounding leaders haven’t seen what has been happening to OUR FLAG, by these disappointments, disgruntles and drug induced freaks.

Arrests, rapes even murder. The taking of human life is worst of all.

A first responder found our flag at Zero on 911, in the burning rumble. Tattered and torn he placed it in with pride at ground Zero. That was an image we all will NEVER FORGET and it meant honor and strength that we could carry on.

Now, those of us who lived through 911 and some who fought and died for our nation and the freedoms are flag represents need to write Congress to change the law. Any person who desecrates our Flag will be locked up. For this to be allowed is disgracing our Troops, Veterans, the proud and all those who are citizens of this Nation.

Now, it the time. Enough is enough.

How appropriate, they ended where they started, going nowhere. How ever they did better than most leftist movements like the slaughter in Cambodia, China’s great leap backwards, Stalin’s mass murders in Russia and the subsequent environmental destruction of the country, and Castro’s conversion of a Caribbean paradise into an island prison.

If we want change, we must really start now, one person at a time. Call or write your Congressman.

Greetings:

Not to worry folkses, Oakland’s Interrim Police Chief, who’s supposedly been in charge during the OCCUPY passive-aggressive civic disruptions, has been made the non-interim Police Chief. Nothing succeeds like success unless it’s affirmative action.

They truly are the Communist who live here, They are those who were denied something, They are those who have too much time on their hands, therefore they follow, follow anything, They are wanting attention, They are the hate % who are making a Mockery of our Flag and those who have fought and those who love this nation so very much.

It is time to change the law referring to the burning of the Flag. We pledge the Alliance to our flag, we respect it. Those who don’t must be locked up.

lol, they “threw bottles of urine at the media.”

THAT IS CLASSIC. This should be standard practice in the United States whenever you see the media.

“Although the group’s website billed the event as a “militant” rally against police brutality, protesters remained peaceful during the more than five mile march. (AP/Noah Berger)” Apparently Noah missed the arson, flag burning, urine tossing, marching without a permit, and other mayhem and disruption these nitwits caused. Another day of lawlessness brought to you by your prog mayor and obama supporter Quan.

Lets reinstate the draft and call up these folks first. If they want to cut and run, they can stay in whatever country they land in.

I would say drinking their urine would be a punishment but these are animals and it may not be the best punishment but a start.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with throwing urine at media, nothing. A pox on them all, you included…

I don’t think its illegal to burn an American flag in a foreign country….. like California.
On the other hand throwing urine on the press? I guess the OWSers aren’t all bad.

I guess the media won’t let a little urine throwing stink up their glowing coverage of OWS. They’re used to wallowing around in much worse than that.

I can understand the outrage over burning the flag, but what’s so bad about throwing urine at the media ?

If you folks think this is bad, wait until the Convention in Tampa. This is what it’s all building up to. Make the Republicans guilty of ‘greed’ and keep the attention off Obama.

TAMPA | More than seven months out, protest groups nationwide are being called to march on the Republican National Convention.

Organizers are aiming for Aug. 27, the first day of the convention, when the eyes of the world will be on Tampa.

” We expect thousands of people to converge from all over the country,” said Dustin Ponder, 23, an organizer with Fight Back Florida, which represents union members and young people. ” I really expect to see a lot of the biggest progressive groups mobilizing around the Republican National Convention come August.”

If I said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times….start eradicating these animals and “it” will go away. The longer they are allowed to walk the streets, the longer and greater the stench….

Maybe he will make it part of the OWS riot wear.

jeeze..don’t make me have to defend these idiots…but ONE bottle of urine was thrown at ONE news van and several other protestors rushed over to disavow and apologize for the p-tosser.
as you might note from the quizzical expressions on passers-by in the photo above, the burning flag seems to have possibly been a plant by some over-zealous media person looking for some drama in what was, otherwise, a very uneventful event. 75 participants is being generous…the crowd was nearly non-existent. except for the few hardcore agitators (and the clueless, un-elected mayor), the bloom seems to be off the ‘occupy’ rose, even here in the commie-central bay area.
they’ve announced that some ‘action’ is scheduled for tomorrow…we’ll see how that goes.
