The primary difference being that there was at least one actual Terrorist plot coming from the OWS crowd.; 12/23/12, 1:33 PM

Christopher said...: Garage,

No the administration started pretending they didn't exist after all the rapes and drug use became publicized.; 12/23/12, 1:47 PM
Christopher said...: What I'm wondering is why Leftists though that OWS would help them anyway?

I mean I assume that they thought that they could cover up their minor acts of violence and pretend that these people were average Americans but anyone with any familiarity with the OWS crowd knew exactly how they were going to behave.; 12/23/12, 1:57 PM

Unfortunately, it attracts recruits who are rebels with a cause and without a clue (e.g. generational rebels), which engenders an unqualified outcome, thereby requiring the regime to constrain their behavior.; 12/23/12, 2:24 PM

Robert Cook said...: While the yokels here guffaw and haw haw at the OWS folks being investigated as a possible terrorist threat, remember this:
