This took place in DC when the Occupiers tried to stop traffic from an area where conservatives were having an annual conference. I guess from the language those people use they consider anything to be acceptable. Like most teenagers and the 20s they use one word very often to convey their meanings. I wonder what they are being taught in schools these days.

Watch the video and hear the police man tell them why the man who ran over a couple of women with his car was allowed to leave. Those people just can't get over the fact that blocking the streets is not allowed or legal.

A fine example of our college education system combined with illegal drugs.

Better yet here is the story as the police tell it and the occupiers just don't agree as to what happened.

I'd like to see this from a few more news sources before I comment.

I am not sure those kids can use any other words when expressing themselves. I love seeing them blame the driver when the police say that the driver hit those people because they were blocking the street.

Do you think there is a chance that those rioters (occupiers) really think that the streets do belong to them and they have a right to block them and decide who can use them and who can't? They seem to think like that.

I forgot about the law that allows you to run over a pedestrian as long as you technically have the right of way.

The thugs also knocked down two elderly women.

Sent one to the hospital. Disgusting.

If this bowel movement is not ideological in nature, why did the goons and thugs storm the convention that was hosting AFP, a conservative organization?

If I were in that situation and the one in which they blocked the street and told motorists to turn around and take a different route I would probably run into them. The vids say that the man had a green light. I guess you really think that protesters and other rioters have a right to control traffic because they want to.
