re: #55 Talking Point Detective

I haven’t followed everything you’ve been doing WRT OWS, but I did witness you get it completely wrong in your posts about the Occupy Atlanta situation with John Lewis. So - unless you made similar mistakes WRT the antiwar marches and the Tea Party, it seems to me that there’s something more to your views on OWS than simply “concern” about certain extremist groups involved.

There was also: enjoyment of and gloating at unprovoked macing of young women; a “wishful hearing” of a protester saying “Jew” (actually “you”); misinterpretation of facial reactions of a woman who claimed to have been hit by a baton as “smiling and looking at the cop”, while it was clear that she was not smiling, but grimacing and crying. The bias is too evident.
