Video and description by National Review’s The Corner:
[A] small part of the protest was downright unpleasant. Moments after I arrived, I saw a Jewish gentleman being berated when he criticized a protester. (Shortly after my video camera was switched off, he (inexplicably) shouted the N-word at the same man.)
By the way, during the course of his performance, he told me that he was white, Puerto Rican, Jewish, and African-American. I suggested he was, in fact, Confused, but he didn’t take much to that.

As the Occupy Wall Street protests surge in size and spread across the country, the Occupy Sacramento offshoot appears to be both confused, and angry when asked simple questions about their purpose.
About 300 protestors showed up in a downtown Sacramento park Thursday morning to kick off the Occupy Sacramento movement, and they did not take kindly to the the presence of a local CBS reporter. They also couldn‘t agree on why they’re there.
Video and description by The Right Scoop:
Andrew Breitbart decided to go to Occupy Los Angeles to ask questions of the protesters and before you know it he had an SEIU thug instructed to follow him around everywhere he went and try to keep people from answering questions. One of Andrew’s questions they were trying to keep people from answering was simply “Capitalism: Thumbs Up Or Thumbs Down?”
Video from The Blaze and description from The Daily Caller:
As “Occupy Wall Street” protests continue to gain steam and attract media attention, several videos of protesters spewing anti-Semitic language are sparking new concerns about the protesters and their messages.
Sadly, the folks at these “protests” are going after the police as well:
The “Occupy Wall Street” movement came to the Big Easy on Thursday, but its expression of varied and often clashing political messages quickly turned difficult.
As about 500 New Orleans protesters marched, complete with a small brass band, from Orleans Parish Prison to the Federal Reserve and then inside City Hall, one activist told The Daily Caller she heard shouts of “Kill the cops!”
Heck, even liberal radio hosts can’t hold back their anger:
Liberal talk radio host Mike Malloy told a group of protestors to tell the so-called “corporate state” to “go f—k yourselves.”
Malloy made his remarks from a stage set up at Freedom Plaza in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, where a large crowd was protesting, in similar fashion to the Occupy Wall Street protests in New York City.
Classy…
This is definitely NOT the Tea Party.
Note: I will update this post as more videos come in. Trust me, there will definitely be more.

Unbelievable. Occupy DC protesters tried their best to raid the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum today in Washington, D.C. NBC reports:
According to Smithsonian spokesperson Linda St. Thomas, a crowd of “about 100 to 200 people” tried to enter through the museum’s Mall entrance.
“They were carrying signs and a lot of protest materials,” St. Thomas said in a statement. “You cannot bring that stuff into the museum under any circumstances.”
According to St. Thomas, the crowd tried to shove its way into the museum after being denied entry by security.
“One security guard was grabbed and pinned against the wall. He could not extract himself,” the spokesperson said. “Another security guard came over to help him and ended up pepper-spraying one person.”
Also, notice the few kids trying to make their way into the building with the masks covering their faces. Hmm… If I was planning on visiting a museum I don’t think I would wear a mask that covered my face. But on the other hand, if I was planning on robbing a bank or attempting to cause chaos… Well, that would be a different story.
Here’s more:
Yup… That’s an angry “Occupier” throwing out a homophobic slur at the camera. Also, notice the kid at the end of the clip remove his shirt and ask for a fight.
Once again, stay classy lefties.

Even Geraldo Rivera, who seems oddly comfortable at these so-called “protests”, got attacked by a loon with powder:
Staying classy as always…

I think you are only looking at one side of this story. The reason I say that is because there are many videos of very educated individuals, I will agree that many of the people are definitely liberal leaning but they are still American citizens. Their rights are being trampled by people who simply do not want too hear about it.
The facts are that republicans and democrats have very little difference when it comes to your constitutional rights. We as a people are protected by the constitution and the bill of rights. These are the basic undeniable rights given through the declaration of independence. How can we as fellow citizens stand by and watch our personal rights be beaten out of them by the police officers whose sworn duty is to protect us and protect the constitutional rights we have.
I would suggest you take a drive downtown and check out an encounter of the occupy protesters and the police. These people are being hauled to jail some by force for breaking a curfew? Does that sound logical at all? I have visited many times to the occupy camp in my town, it is eye opening to see the clampdown of fellow citizens by local authorities.
Here is my tale of visiting occupy in my area. I heard they were downtown in a park but did not pay much attention until the first night the police showed up and peppersprayed 5 people while hauling 10 people to jail. The charge was breaking curfew, which is a ticketable offense but not a jail-able offense, they then will charge the people with obstructing an officer and then with resisting arrest.
To me that does not sound logical that you go to jail over a non jail-able offense, so I went down the next night and met some of the people first thing as i walked up they offered me food and drink, and we visited, I asked why they were down there I got many different answers but most simply revolved around the the devaluing of the dollar by the federal reserve, the merger of corporations and governments, that buy politicians votes for bills on the floor through campaign financing, lobbying, or just plain payoffs. And the fact that corporations have actual protected by law human rights just like you and I do
Every night that I go up there at the curfew time cops storm the park, I mean like 75-90 cops on biggest night all carrying paintball guns with maceballs, the presence of force was strong and the people as a group move off but there are some as individuals want to act in civil disobedience, which the group supports. Over 50 people have went to jail now.
They stand for my rights as well as theirs, for your rights as well as theirs. They stand there as American citizens tired of getting screwed, tired of going to the gas pump and always needing more money for the same gas, tired of seeing there money not go as far at the grocery store. They are mad because this is all intentional and both republicans and democrats are to blame as this is not an overnight problem, the artificial bubble building up and bursting is a long term problem.
These things are everyones problem yours, mine, and theirs.
