Just one last post on the "Occupy Everything" crowd and I will ignore them just like everyone else..
It reeked so much of that same doctrine that when I first noticed their antics, my brain went into automatic overdrive and when it does that, there has to be something almighty askew. A bit like switching on a movie, thinking it will be an action or a watchable drama but turns out to be a chick flick. That same response was what I got from their first efforts. The "Oh, the world owes me a living" crowd, a collection of pathetic little children suffering from self inflicted torment only managed to isolate and open themselves up to ridicule that was not exceeded by those looney's back in the seventies when most were too stoned to even notice. One day, they will grow up and learn, hopefully..
It’s time, kiddies

It’s the end of the line for the Occupy movement.They made their point. Everyone has been very decent about it. But the grownups are calling time.Yesterday, Occupy Melbourne protesters were up in arms when police moved in and cleared out their tent city in Treasury Gardens.Scuffles broke out and three men were arrested.“We are being totally unfairly discriminated against,” whined Tulsi Emmett to the ABC..No. They’ve been cluttering up public space with their unhygienic detritus for almost two weeks. Enough is enough.As New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said this week after police cleared out the Occupy New York protesters from Zuccotti Park: “Protesters have had two months to occupy the park with tents and sleeping bags.“Now they will have to occupy the space with the power of their arguments.”And maybe they could have a bath.
Next up we have two more articles from Tim Blair and his great sense of humour and irony..
WAKE UP, POND SCUM

Tuesday, November 15, 2011 at 05:17amSin City genius Frank Miller – an inspirational figure – reviews the Occupy movement:
‘Occupy’ is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America.
Perhaps Miller will be the next to receive one of Occupy’s awesome debate invitations. He continues:
Wake up, pond scum. America is at war against a ruthless enemy. Maybe, between bouts of self-pity and all the other tasty tidbits of narcissism you’ve been served up in your sheltered, comfy little worlds, you’ve heard terms like al-Qaeda and Islamicism. And this enemy of mine — not of yours, apparently – must be getting a dark chuckle, if not an outright horselaugh – out of your vain, childish, self-destructive spectacle.
There’s still more. It’s Miller time for Occupondies. But hey, at least they’ve got geography-unaware Australian academics on their side.
UPDATE. David Thompson:
Bearing in mind the riots, thuggery, vandalism, pathological lying, urine hurling, excremental desecrations, drug overdoses, shootings and, oh yes, outbreaks of tuberculosis and lice … I’d say the “occupy” project has been a roaring success, yes? Now imagine that triumph everywhere, writ large and stretching into the future …

Tuesday, November 15, 2011 at 08:48pmA late-night raid at international street trash headquarters:
New York City police and sanitation workers swept in and cleared out the tents inside Zuccotti Park during an unannounced raid on the Occupy Wall Street encampment Tuesday morning, with dozens of protesters refusing to leave in the face of arrest.At least 400 New York Police Department officers dressed in riot gear surrounded the park at around 1 a.m. Tuesday. Officers used bullhorns to warn the protesters who have been living in the small, privately owned plaza that the area would be temporarily evacuated and cleared of illegal structures, which were described as fire hazards.
Key word: “temporarily”. NYC mayor Wimpberg is letting the riff-raff return:
Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s administration did not give advanced warning of the police sweep but did sent out a message on Twitter at 1:19 a.m.: “Occupants of Zuccotti should temporarily leave and remove tents and tarps. Protesters can return after the park is cleared.”
That message should continue: “… and the Punji sticks are in place.”
UPDATE. Occupy Graves.
UPDATE II. Iowahawk:
