Supporters of Occupy Wall Street

Let's take a look at some of the "supporters" of Occupy Wall Street and what they stand for.

First. let's look at Van Jones.  You may remember he was the "Green Jobs Czar" in the Obama Administration.  He has stated: “They had the Arab spring, which was a people-powered, non-violent opportunity to change the conversation in those countries,” Jones said. “We should have an American Autumn--people-powered, non-violent.”  Read the article here.


Now, I want to take a minute and look at how "non-violent" the Arab Spring was.  This was anything but non-violent.  You can watch the video here.  Be aware some of the scenes can be very distrubing.  Can it happen here in the U.S.?  Is this what we want?

In this video Van Jones even warns us of what is going to happen.

How about Francis Fox Piven?  She is a radical left winger, who, along with Van Jones believes that violence is what it takes to get things done.  In this video, she specifically states it is okay to use violence.

As stated in this article, "Fears expressed by some that the ‘Occupy Wall Street’ movement is being hijacked by the Democratic Party establishment have intensified after the official OWS website announced that it “stands in solidarity” with MoveOn.org, a lobbying group for the Wall Street-backed Obama administration." 

As stated in this article, "My friend Scott Johnson got a tip from a reader that the progressive New York political party Working Families has run an ad on Craigslist, one that apparently promises a salary for joining the OccupyWallStreet protests. "

To make matters even more interesting, according to this article,  "The downtown protest group Occupy Boston threw its proverbial doors open yesterday, and played host to supporters of accused terrorist Terak Mehanna, who are looking to raise awareness of the Sudbury man’s upcoming trial." 

Now I ask you, is this what you stand for?  These people and groups involved are "smooth talkers".  They make things sound real good, but the question is... is it?
