What If Occupiers Armed Themselves?

7. The TeaHad aren't going to be arrested or beaten by people who mostly agree with them.

Remember what America said after May 4th, 1970? That they "deserved to die" and "there should have been more"?

Remember in 2007, when The Gathering of the Eagles participants beat up a Gold-Star dad in full view of the cops . . . not ONE arrest? I was at that protests. Police pretty much left them alone despite continued threats of bodily harm and assaults.

And now all of the OWS arrests and Police-brutality-related injuries . . .

America does not like the left, nor do they like what we stand for. They just plain don't like us. The wealthy think "we don't know how the world works" (Stephen Moore) and that "we're babies in adult bodies" (Ken Langone) and "Imbeciles" (Bernie Marcus). The police hate us even more; either that or they're more comfortable identifying with fascists than they are peaceful people. Middle America's conditioned by the purchased media to love wealth and hate equality.

How do you combat that?
