Redistributionism always looks better when you don’t own anything yourself.

What a Shock! Far Left #OWS Goons Say Stealing Is Biggest Problem

Gee… Who could have seen this coming?

The locals already complained that they want everything for free. And they are democrats, after all. So it really is no surprise that theft is the biggest problem at Occupy Wall Street.

The New York Post reported, Via JWF:
It’s a den of thieves!

Occupy Wall Street protesters said yesterday that packs of brazen crooks within their ranks have been robbing their fellow demonstrators blind, making off with pricey cameras, phones and laptops — and even a hefty bundle of donated cash and food.

“Stealing is our biggest problem at the moment,” said Nan Terrie, 18, a kitchen and legal-team volunteer from Fort Lauderdale.

“I had my Mac stolen — that was like $5,500. Every night, something else is gone. Last night, our entire [kitchen] budget for the day was stolen, so the first thing I had to do was . . . get the message out to our supporters that we needed food!”

Crafty cat burglars sneaked into the makeshift kitchen at Zuccotti Park overnight and swiped as much as $2,500 in donated greenbacks from right under the noses of volunteers who’d fallen asleep after a long day whipping up meals for the hundreds of hungry protesters, the volunteers said.

“The worst thing is there’s people sleeping in the kitchen when they come, and they don’t even know about it! There are some really smart and sneaky thieves here,” Terrie said.

“I had umbrellas stolen, a fold-up bed I brought because my back is bad — they took that, too!”

No shit. Welcome to Primate Behavior 101.
 
While I am sympathetic to their general position, the protesters need to clean up their act, figuratively and literally. They need to start with a simple, direct message/question. Something like, where are the indictments? Something that would force the Obama administration to address the issue. The media will not press him on this, and you can bet your last buck a republican president would have had his feet held to the fire from day one. The protests would have happened immediately under a republican administration, and rightfully so. Where are the indictments?
