Confirmed: ‘Occupy’ Movement Is a Wretched Hive of Villainous Scum

Posted on | July 11, 2012 | 69 Comments

“Jew-haters, commies, psychotics, rapists — the Occupy movement is like a roach-motel for scum.”
Robert Stacy McCain, Nov. 25, 2011

One of the things you learn if you study crime long enough is that criminality tends to be a general trait. Criminals do not limit themselves to specialties. The car thief is often also a small-time dope dealer, and the dope-dealing car thief doesn’t have much compunction about committing the occasional rape or aggravated assault.

This is part of the reason the “broken windows” approach to law enforcement works: When police start paying attention to seemingly minor infractions of the law, the people they bring under scrutiny necessarily include a certain number of career criminals. Pull over a car for failing to signal a left turn, run the driver’s ID through the computer system and — surprise! — he’s got a warrant for a probation violation. Search his car, find a dime bag of dope or a pistol, and it’s back to prison for the habitual offender.

Crime tends to cluster. It’s a pattern, rooted in an attitude, a worldview, a belief system involving a selfish disrespect for the social order.

What happens, then, when a political movement arises which celebrates the anti-social attitudes commonly held by criminals? Naturally, such a movement becomes a magnet for punks, hoodlums and thugs, and the crime wave associated with the “Occupy” protests wasn’t surprising. All of which is preamble to today’s not-so-shocking news:

Officials have linked forensic evidence from the 2004 murder scene of a 21-year-old Juilliard student to the scene of a recent Occupy Wall Street subway protest, NBC 4 New York has learned.
DNA evidence from the scene of Sarah Fox’s murder in Inwood Hill Park eight years ago has been connected to DNA from a chain left in a subway station by Occupy protesters in March, NBC 4 New York first reported Tuesday.
Fox was found nude and strangled in the park in May 2004, days after she disappeared during a daytime jog. Investigators recovered her pink CD player in the woods just yards from her body.
Sources said Tuesday the DNA found on the CD player matches DNA found on a chain left by Occupy Wall Street protesters at the Beverly Road subway station in East Flatbush on March 28, 2012.

Via Memeorandum, which also has the New York Times version of the story. It should be emphasized that this DNA match doesn’t necessarily solve the crime. Police say it is possible that the DNA on Sarah Fox’s CD player was from one of her friends, and not from her killer.

However, if this DNA found at the scene of an Occupy protest does belong to Fox’s killer, it is hardly “a bizarre turn” in the case.

The Occupy movement is organized on the principle of lawless hostility to private property. And you know what they call lawless people who are hostile to private property? Criminals.

UPDATE: Thanks to the commenter who points out that the post title is a near-miss of a line in Star Wars by Obi-Wan Kenobi, who describes the space-port town of Mos Eisley as a “wretched hive of scum and villainy.” The implied comparison to the patrons of the Mos Eisley Cantina is probably too flattering to the Occupy scum who attempted to storm the AFP Summit in D.C. last fall.

    I’m only hostile to “your” private property not being “mine.”  That makes me a Democrat.

    Unfortunately, most of the time the cop has to listen to Joe Rolledthroughstopsign demand to know why he’s not out catching a murderer or child molester.

    The answer, of course, is, “How do you think we catch most of them?”

    If nothing else, this might get some of the saner “black block” loons looking askance at each other – they, after all, know who was involved with the chain business.

    Let’s not forget Elizabeth Warren in all this.  After all, she “created much of the intellectual foundation for what they do.”  And she said “I support what they do.”

    Arrest her now, and make her talk.  What’s her alibi?  Was she at Tribal Council?

    It seems to me that Occupy is also making itself into a convenient amalgamation of defenseless prey animals.

    My reaction to the camp-all-night thing was that it was practically designed to be a crime magnet. (Just like it’s been a disease magnet.)

    Where else would a violent rapist go?

    I don’t disagree with the premise that a person who commits crimes (and most of Occupy is based on property crimes, no?) isn’t picky about the crimes he or she commits, I’m just nit picking that this doesn’t prove the premise.

    I was about to say ‘You’re close…,’ but Trog  caught it.

    In a different light, can you imagine the gut-wrenching emotions Sarah Fox’s parents are experiencing?  And knowing the possibility that her murderer or an accomplice (or both) has been preening for the libMedia cameras all these months?  Sickening.

    And yet… It was the Tea Party activists who threw a brick threw the window of the Democratic Party headquarters, stomped on a woman’s head and neck at a Rand rally, mailed white powder and swastikas to Rep. Grijalva and fired on his office on after ruling on the Arizona immigration law, issued death threats against Sen. Patty Murray after a yes vote on healthcare reform resulting in the arrest of the armed and angry perpetrator, invited Tea Party activists to descend upon the address of a Virginia Democratic representative resulting in the gas line at that address being cut, threatened California state Senator Yee, shot at Gabby Gifford’s office windows (before she was actually shot in the head in what was described as a “lone wolf” act), spit on highly respected black leaders in public, contemplate trying to make the working class unions look bad by using a plant to stir up violence in a large group of protesters heedless of the dangers (Walker only chose to not do this because it could backfire on him politically), shoot the police via a Glenn Beck paranoid listener, arrest of another Beck listener who was upset by congress “railroading the left-wing agenda” and was planning the Tides Foundation shooting, stabbing a cab driver after asking him if he was a Muslim…. The full list is actually too long to use as an aside.

    As in, you don’t have links, and are using Wombat as an excuse.

    Well, you could be too lazy, or don’t know how to link.  But using stupid, insulting assertions to divert the thread is a pretty common tactic for trolls. 

    So I’ll go for cowardly troll being penalized for lying.  Works for me.

    Well, as serial troll and cut&paste expert “Scary Liberal” has spammed, the DNA match was due to contamination of the evidence. 

    And I am man enough to admit that I was wrong to try and pin the murder of a coed on the OccupyWallStreet scum.  It was a leap of faith to place that heinous crime on a group well known for robbery, sexual assault, rape, embezzlement, theft, fraud, vandalism, statutory rape, drug abuse, criminal trespass, destruction of private property, destruction of public property, violation of health and sanitation laws, arson, making terrorist threats, public defecation, and so on.

    Why, I don’t know whatever came over me!

     And I must congratulate you, S.L., on having the patience and skill to post all those links, one per message. 
    Given your earlier refusals to provide links for your assertions, I had
    categorized you as a lazy troll, looking  to incite thread changing
    arguments by insulting everyone.

    Well, I was wrong about that, and I’m man enough to admit that as well. 
    You’re not a lazy troll, looking  to incite thread changing arguments
    by insulting everyone.

    No, no, you’re just a typical leftie troll, looking  to incite thread changing
    arguments by insulting everyone.  You just kept your HTML-fu in reserve, like any good ninja wannabe. 

    And henceforth we all know the truth — when you post stupid assertions without links, it’s because you don’t have them.

    Too bad the parallel to a Roach Motel doesn’t really work — the bad guys can walk right back out to terrorize voters next election, too.

    But at least the world is now warned about what sort of people they are (provided we don’t forget to look up tomorrow’s Democrat politicians in today’s book of mug-shots).
