Like I said, the kiddies were taught important lessons about overcoming obstacles. Looks like they overcame obstacles. It beats pounding on keyboards and whining about folks they disagree with.

God forbid they actually helped someone instead of serving their infantile need to have things their way.

I meant in terms of the volunteer food drive. Personally, while I like the incredibly well behaved Syracuse Occupiers, the west coast occupiers are a little too confrontational for my taste.

Not a very reliable source, especially when the story has been removed.

Do you suppose that the west coast people being much farther left than some others could have anything to do with their confrontational methods? I sure think so but they are part of the movement and they have been very nasty in what they do to get their way.

I really don't see how you manage to stand up for those people who refused to let that food through normal channels but you are doing just that.
