Biting the hand that feeds you
Our buddy, JammieWearingFool reports that after a pastor offered his church as refuge for the Occupy Wall Street nomads, he noticed his laptop was missing;
“There was a sense of shock and sadness that it had happened,” said Brashears, whose laptop will soon be replaced by Occupy organizers. “And there’s a common understanding that if there’s one more theft in the church, that’s it.”
Yeah, “that’s it” is coming, padre.
Apparently, according to JWF, the OWS crowd in New York has become a wandering band of flea-biten gypsies since Mayor Bloomberg threw them out of Zuccotti Park last month and it’s eating into their $344,000 savings.
“We don’t do this out of charity,” said 34-year-old Ravi Ahmad, who works for Columbia University and volunteers with Occupy in her spare time. “We do this so that whoever wants to work in the movement can work in the movement. This is a meritocracy.”
Yeah, to be a meritocracy, there has to be some merit involved.
So basically, they’re getting paid and provided for to be homeless scum on the streets of New York, as if there weren’t enough already. Apparently, their numbers are dwindling as colder weather sets in;
The die-hards said they were there to stay. “If you don’t like the cold, occupy Key West,” said James McGuinness, 55, of Queens.
But wait until the Sunshine Occupiers come out in the Spring like the crocuses.

Whatever happened to that mom that abandoned her husband and kids to join these yahoos?
Doc, she’s probably still banging the waiter, or the dude who does her hair, or………
….all of the above?
I am alone in the basement and I am shaking uncontrolably. Please send EMTs ASAP, but until I have finished writing. My fingers are operating independently from my mind. My fingers see a great vision. No not that vision of great heards of buffalo returning to the prarie another vision you dope fiend. I see a vision of the destruction of a border. Like the destruction of the Berlin Wall it will be a sign of a new era. I see the destruction of the borderfence between Mexico and the USA. How could this be done. It could be done by an agreement between the US and Mexican governments. There is a multidue of reasons to make such an agreement. The Amerian and Mexican people should no longer be artificially divided. We in the USA should accept all Mexican childern as our own children, collectively speaking of course. The young Mexican Nation shall accept all of our grandfathers and grandmothers as their grandfathers and grandmothers, collectively speaking of course. Ohh the Pain!! Here is how it could be practically worked out. Any Mexican who comes north or the border and any American who goes south of the border gets to stay as long as they want. Anyone who pays taxs and does not get arrested for 12 years can become not just a legal resident but a citizen of the coutnry that they are residing in. That is a D U E L citizen! Ahhhhh!!!!!!! God help me you muther fucking asshole. While many Mexicans may come north to work many Americans will go south to retire. It will work out that way. Such an opening of the border may appear as a racist attempt to keep out Haitians and Dominicans and Cubans. Although it will be a short term disadvantage for the citizens of these countries to have be able to freely come to our shores I think that in the longer term The Carribeean should not be part of of the North American economic zone but part of the South American economic zone, with of course the exception… Read more »
Someone went off the deep end. I think Pig Pen needs to find his meds.
Pig Pen is yet another iteration of the Curt Kastens’ experience.
Either that, Doc, or he needs to switch to decaf.
Jonn–yeah, kinda figured. I knew it was bullshit when he talked about all our folks retiring in Mexico.
Fuck that, for my money, give me Costa Rica or Panama.
@8 I don’t know there are some quite lovely senoritas in meh-he-co. and the south is pretty. Good surfing in Baja. Cervasas are cheap. Federalis are corrupt as shit though.
I know too many people who have been jacked down there. Plus you don’t own the property your home is on. No way in hell I’d ever buy a property I don’t truly own.
My final battle with the Soprano gang has not yet come and before it does I would like to say that Pig Pen’s Plan will cause some birthing pains but it will be worth it after 12 years. I am not curt but I think that Pig Pen means to say that someone moving over the border to live would have to pay taxes for 12 years as well as not get arrested for 12 years. I not only think that is good it is an improvement over what we have now. Legal immigrants getting citizenship in just five years, even less if they marry an Amercian or join the military. They should be happy with a green card for 12 years. But what if a person does work in which they pay taxes for say 3 quarters each year but not the fourth because they work in a seasonal job? Should they have to pay taxes for 16 years? And what happens if they draw unemployment for 2 years total during that 12 year period but are working during the 12th year? What if they have 8 kids during those 12 years? What happens if they filed for bankruptcy during those 12 years? Alot of fine tuning needs to be put in to the proposal. For example it is just a coincidence that I can imagine that we will still need beefed up border patrols to make sure that everyone who crosses of the border comes through an official border crossing check point controled by Customs to make sure that they are not bringing any drug across the border and no weapons. If the Mexicans want to carry a gun while in the US they will have to buy the weapons in the US in accordance with US laws. I do not really like the prospect of Mexican Drug gangs comming north to oompete with US gangs but I also do not like the the idea of honest immigrants being disarmed and therefore being easy prey for criminals.

I see you finally got that sex change operation you were saving up for, Curt.
Yes having seen the world as a woman and now being able to see it as a man I have a much better vision of how things are and how they should be. I only need to find a smart man who can navigate is his way from here to there and be willing to stop and ask for directions when he is not sure to make my life fullfilled. I have lost weight and I think that there is a man out there who can carry me over the threshhold.
The man that I am looking for is one that will not keep me locked up in a closet becasue he is afraid that his friends will see me. The man that I am looking for is one that will allow me to lift up the shades on the windows and let me see what is really going on on the street down below. I am tired of looking at the posters that have been taped over the window to make me believe that these pictures represent the reality of what is going on behind the glass when the noises that I hear do not correspond to the reality presented to me.
Of course those noises could just be hallucinations caused by my rigid meditation sessions. Or hallucinations could be caused because I am being poisoned by someone who hopes to gain control of my financial empire.
yours truely,
Lucifer van Pelt (Lucy to my friends)
PS
I would like to thank Unity Media for their generous grant to help pay for my medical bills
I was absent mindedly sorting Laundry dreaming of a romantic getaway with that special man and I looked down and saw that I had mixed my whites with my colors. I then realized that I had made a terrible mistake.
For a world renowed psychologist such as myself it is an especially embarrasing mistake. I have always thought that I needed a special man to make my life fullfilled. I now have to face up to the truth that one man can never do the job. It seeems that I am so special that I deserve more than one. I deserve a committee of gay men to fullfill my every libertine desire.
Well someone’s taken an extra helping of crazy today. Where do you find these guys John?
We inherited Curt from Blackfive when they banned him a few years back. I guess he was dormant for awhile, but someone rattled his Euro-cage. I figure that his posts are self-stimulating, much like his sex life.
Holy haywire, Batman!!
What did you do, Jonn?! Blow a dog-whistle??
Jonn–“I see you finally got that sex change operation you were saving up for, Curt.
Jesus, Jonn! How much could a razor blade and a bottle of rubbing alcohol possibly cost in Europe?
Looks like the OWS folks tried to call Rev. Brashears bluff: http://newyorkpost.com/p/news/local/manhattan/god_awful_ows_mob_VqPjFDW0n234NhA9hxsxnL
Stay classy, OWS.
