Apparently the #OCCUPY losers have so many rapists that the women have requested their own shelters.
Zuccotti Park has become so overrun by sexual predators attacking women in the night that organizers felt compelled to set up a female-only sleeping tent yesterday to keep the sickos away.The large, metal-framed "safety tent" -- which will be guarded by an all-female patrol -- can accommodate as many as 18 people and will be used during the day for women-only meetings, said Occupy Wall Street organizers.
"This is all about safety in numbers," said Becky Wartell, 24, a protester from Portland, Maine.
So many angles.
1. Get a gun.
2. Why the heck are so many of your comrades rapists?
3. Aren't there any good men to protect the women?
The primary function of civilization is to prevent crazies from taking your stuff and raping your women. Let's keep careful notes about how the world would look if the #OCCUPY thugs were in charge of more than a half-acre park.
I don't remember hearing about any rapes at the Tea Party rallies, do you?
Ann Althouse asks if the special tent is discriminatory:
If there were a few attacks by black people, would they set up a white-only section? Why stigmatize all the men as criminals based on the acts of a few?
Allah Pundit notes that the media has been treating the #OCCUPY losers a lot better than they did the Tea Partiers:
This can't be repeated enough: With a few exceptions, foremost among them the New York Post, the coverage of OWS protests compared to the coverage of tea-party protests is the worst media double standard in recent history. Nothing compares, because nothing else involves this much distortion on both ends of the coverage. It's not just that most press outlets (like the protesters themselves) look the other way at depravity happening inside Obamaville, it's that for years they treated the tea-party movement as some sort of feral mob that was forever on the brink of rampaging through the streets -- like, say, Occupy Oakland just did.
Robert Stacy McCain points out that #OCCUPY shouldn't be considered "non-violet" no matter what they claim.
We can no longer tolerate media assertions that this is a non-violent movement. When your purpose is to inspire hatred, to threaten and intimidate, when you trespass and obstruct traffic, when you chant obscenities and deliberately seek to provoke confrontations -- no, you're not being non-violent, no matter how often you claim to be "peaceful."But who can expect honesty from such savages? And who can any longer doubt that the mainstream media are acting as accessories to this criminal movement by pretending that the "Occupy [Whatever]" mob's regular eruptions of violence and criminality are atypical aberrations?
The longer this goes on, the worse it will get for the Democrats and the Left... so in that sense it's great. Let these losers discredit themselves for a generation.
