This is akin to hating on the IRS for your having to pay taxes.Last edited by Moliere; 11-20-2011, 07:52 AM."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Why didn't the police just put zip-ties on their wrists, and drag them to a paddy wagon? Why the use of a chemical weapon in the face of non-threatening protesters? It is unbelievable that the police thought this would accomplish something useful. Instead they end up beating a hasty retreat, leaving the quad uncleared and in the hands of the protesters.
Kristoff writes a nice Op-Ed about how these cases of brutality harden the Occupy movement. His piece should also be cited in woot's income gap thread, because it addresses that issue, and correctly (IMO) connects it to the problems faced by public education.

It seems to me more akin to the war on drugs. Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it's a good idea to attack it with a sledgehammer. Maybe the law is wrong, maybe the law should be suspended in this case, maybe this particular group of law-breakers should be handled with some finesse, etc.Originally posted by Moliere View Post

I loved Newt Gingrich's quote last night. If you don't work, you don't eat. First take a bath and then get a job.Part of it is based on academic grounds.

I like Newt. Not sure if I want him to be POTUS - though he would be infinitely better than Obama - but I like that he's not afraid to take little shots at those far left OWS types.Originally posted by Color Me Badd Fan View PostI loved Newt Gingrich's quote last night.

And yes, that photo is great. It's hilarious that the hippies think they've been wronged when they are only facing the consequences of their actions."Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
