Moronic Convergence: Last Gasp of the Socialist Geezers

It’s a Michael Moore remake of Todd Browning’s Freaks, in the World Can’t Wait Day of Mass Resistance. El Marco was there and has a photo gallery at Flickr: Last Gasp NYC Oct. 5, 2006.

“Mass Resistance,” in this case, being defined as: about a thousand people.

El Marco’s full photo album is here.

LGF operative NoSubmission also sent along some photos from Union Square, which I have put through the LGF slideshowizer: The World Can’t Wait For Them to Shut Up.

Stopped by the Union Square leg of the World Can’t Wait rally after work. I had been there earlier today at lunch and took a photo of the statue of Ghandi before the crowds came. It was supposed to culminate in an all-night song festival but the cop I spoke to said they will ask them to leave at 8.00. They should have changed it to the World Can’t Bother to Show Up rally because there was hardly anyone there. This is a shocker for NYC being a moonbat mecca. No papier mache heads but there was a large Bush head. The usual stands hawking t-shirts, buttons and publications but no crowds. The space they had cordoned off on Union Square North was not even a third full. The overall feeling was one of anemic rage, worn out slogans and paranoia. A woman in the crowd kept screaming ‘psychopath’ over and over. The speakers were literally screaming and shrieking so loud into the massive sound system it was painful. Ran into a former colleague and we both remarked on how dismally empty it was. I was happy to leave.

No papier maché heads? No wonder nobody showed up.
