I guess since the OP goes on and on about "we do not" "we suspect" "we have" and "our" it means either:

A) they are at the demonstration posting to C-D on their iPad

-or-

B) they are comfortably sitting at home reading the tweets from the college kiddies fantasizing here on C-D

-or maybe-

C) they are one of the rent-a-protesters earning their keep

So I stayed up until 11:00pm waiting for this revolution you promised, but it didn't happen. What went wrong?

Likely a rent-a-revolution member.

Strange, I haven't seen anything about the WH or other government buildings being taken over, nor have I heard anything abot regime change. I don't think this really qualifies as much of a "revolution."


Way to use inflammatory rhetoric and not deliver.

I'd be ashamed if I were one of these kids... here's an idea- instead of protesting and marching and bitching and complaining about school costs and money and employment, how about GOING TO CLASS INSTEAD? or LOOKING FOR A JOB? or CUTTING BACK?

****in' whiners. They're just angry because they don't have the intelligence, drive, or creativity to create the next big thing, or invent the next everyday item, or write the next bestseller or movie script. Hell, nobody FORCED them to do these things... they could even hedge their bets by learning a trade.


I don't think anyone in my area would take too kindly to me going over to them and saying "Hey, I like your house/phone/car, gimmie."
