This vile creature a known member of the Black Bloc anarchist movement proves the point that anarchists are a threat to everyone. As such they should be labeled for what they are, violent sociopaths. Predictably within a short time after the incident the politically correct chickenshit gun control advocates began calling for a ban on all guns, the implication being that the Second Amendment is anachronistic and has no place in modern society. To that view I would reply that had someone in the audience had a weapon they could have put this vile creature out of his misery.
Regarding the so called “occupy” movement. While initially it was populated by the truly concerned it rapidly descended into chaos and confusion once the average folks abandoned the movement. However, the partisan MSM propagandists refused to let a good news story die and like their messiah, loudly announced that the movement was just the average citizen protesting the wrongs inflicted on society by those cruel capitalists. It evidently did not occur to the MSM that the average citizens were nowhere to be found, they had been replaced by the dregs of society, pimps, rapists, drug dealers and addicts, anarchists and college students who obviously were wasting their parents money on non-education.
In the end the destructive nature of those who inherited the occupy movement, with the approval of Barack Obama and the MSM, have left nothing in their wake but destruction and violence proving once again that the politically correct radical socialists are completely clueless of the unintended consequences of their action – or maybe not. But, there may be a greater agenda in play here – those whose interests would be better served with the destruction of our country as we know it. Just my opinion….WM
And I use quotation marks on the word “Anarchist” for a reason, because real Anarchists believe in breaking up corrupt power structures, not smashing windows. Any mindless clown with a brick can smash a window, that doesn’t make you an anarchist, just a vandal. Though I am NOT an anarchist myself, the anarchists I have met do NOT endorse this idiotic smashing of property, and nor does Occupy Wall Street. I denounce this type of bullshit. It has NO PLACE in our peaceful movement.
It would then be incumbent upon those peaceful members of the Occupy movement to throw out the vandals….WM
Article Postscript: The following You Tube link shows the official Occupy Wall Street website claiming Holmes was indeed a member of the Black Bloc – It was scrubbed after 1 hour: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=jIHjTvFrzuE#
Good article Bill – I especially like – “To that view I would reply that had someone in the audience had a weapon they could have put this vile creature out of his misery.”
Thanks Kathy – There is a lot of truth in that – most predators will stay away from those they perceive to be a threat to them. Self defense is the only answer to uninvited violence – they should have shot Holmes dead when they had the chance….
Waiting now for the Occupy Movie Theaters advocacy groups to start rioting in this butchers defense.
