This is not the American way! We refuse to use energy that doesn't cost the blood of our children in the middle east, and US wind and sun require none of their blood! It is simply un American! It is patriotic to unnecessarily send our kids to die unnecessarily, right? And if we allow the American public to demand science in this area, well, it will be hardly any time at all before they are demanding that the externalities of carbon fuels be handled the way cancer, health costs finally were handled with cigarettes, where the offender, the polluter pays. And if we want to kill 14,000 Americans with coal pollution to avoid the vicious ire of the coal industry, well that's our business, non-foreign-terrorist deaths are totally ok. And hey, they are our children, so if we want to hand them a dead ocean devoid of life, 50% of the world's species gone by 2075 - THEY ARE OUR KIDS. NO ONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO TELL US TO STOP. This is the land of the Free-to-do-to-others-whatever-we-want-if-we-have-the-money-to-get-away-with-it! Love it, or leave it!

Police raid on Occupy DC
Boing Boing - 17 hours ago
By Cory Doctorow at 10:29 pm Friday, Feb 10 Quinn Norton's first-person account of the police raid on Occupy DC for Wired is riveting and scary.
SL's comment......................................
I'm a leftie by leaning, but I act on my beliefs so I'm sure you'll remove this comment. Oh well.
What a bunch of sappy, self-centered, whiny bs this article is. I almost got trampled in another escalation Saturday. So what?
Guess what happens when a police force, for 3-4 months, breaks the law so that an Occupation can continue in DC, receives a constant, constant, every day, constant stream, for 3 months, of whiny, snot nosed bratty taunts, disrespects, challenges (gut less), basically an uniterrupted stream of verbal urine and feces, the absolute threat of physical feces from the anarchist hate-mob (the stockpiles were on-site), attacks from the Republican Trash Issa with of course zero, zero, zero protection from the do nothing, risk nothing, blame everyone but themselves left... and finally, comes Saturday, when these little campers (Occupy my a**, just these guys' Woodstock - free food, skate boarding, bikes, sleep ins, cowardly bigotry toward innocent decent kind respectful cops (this generations free to whack 'niggers').... Guess what happens?
Well, their orders were - if there is no violence, if the crowd is cooperative, continue to work with them as you have. If there is violence, resistance, clear the park, remove everything. And you know what? AGAIN, IN SUPPORT OF THE 'OCCUPIERS' THEY BROKE THEIR ORDERS - 20% OF THE TENTS REMAINED, AND THE REST, REMOVED AT THE DIRECTION, EACH ONE, BY THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT, ARE BEING ALLOWED TO RETURN, AND, EVERYONE WAS NOT REMOVED - THEY WERE ALLOWED BACK IMN THE PARK THAT NIGHT.
Among the most vile, hateful, taunting, disrespectful anarchist is the near-skinhead that you can see all over the media leading the pushing by the crowd (that's illegal, violence, resistance if not assualt of a police officer, ARRESTIBLE, IMMEDIATELY) ON THE SHIELDS. Tell me doing-doing, for how many seconds, minutes, days, months are the police required to break the law, including ignoring the physical disobeying of an order, of a protocol (not pushing on the shields)? Oh, I forgot, these are just children these 'Occupier' brats. In which case, they should go home to mommy and learn how to behave as adults. But if they are adults, then the answer to the question just posed, is zero, zero seconds... months are required of the police to ignore the law or protocol. But they did, with nothing but unprotected, unshielded verbal urine and feces for four months.
The police didn't remove any tents!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, sorry, you probably aren't interested in facts here, just rotten meat for the left. Well, anyway, the police didn't remove any tents. Period. Every tent that was removed was done after the inspection by a medical doctor on the basis of health hard (usually feces - human or rodent, tho with this batch of 2 legged juvenile whiners and police-abusers it is difficult to tell them apart.
These are the facts. Stop you 'nigger' hatting, police bashing bogotry. There are serous issues that need serous people and serious answers. jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com
