Police investigate Occupy Philly sexual assault
A man is under arrest, and police are processing him for sexually assaulting a woman at the Occupy Philly camp near City Hall Saturday night. His identity is not being released.
The victim was taken to a local hospital for medical treatment.
Police cleared Dilworth Plaza where the alleged assault took place while the Crime Scene Unit and Police Special Victims Unit investigated.
Police say the victim is a 23 year old woman from Atlantic City, and the alleged rapist is a 50 year old man with a Michigan address.
Police say the rape occurred around 7:45pm Saturday night, and that the woman walked to a nearby pay phone and called 911.
They picked up the man within 20 minutes in the general vicinity of the camp.
I don’t recall any reports of rape at any Tea Party rallies.
Last winter a certified nutjob with no known connection to Sarah Palin or the Tea Party went on a killing spree. Some people insisted it was the fault of Sarah Palin and the Tea Party.
The Occupy movement has been directly linked to numerous deaths, sexual assaults as well as lots of other acts of violence and destruction. The same people that blamed Sarah and the Tea Partiers keep insisting that the Occupy movement has nothing to do with any of it.

Karl Rove and Fox News love the Tea Party.
Logically, that means Rove and Fox News are hiring rapists for Occupy rallies.
Simple failed logic.
Illogical sillygism:
I went to a couple rallies at Zucchini Park
I didn’t see anyone getting raped while I was there.
This is all a pack of lies started by Glenn Beck.

Oh…..and all the nooormal people are in the center of the crowd; the weirdos and rapists stay on the outside of the circle.
Uh-huh.
LOL Honk!
If she’s fifteen now then he must have started when she was twelve.
If he were only a movie director, he’s be in the clear.

True story. And if only God had helped him cover it up, he’d still have a job.
Bringing in homicide detectives at Z-Park ?

If you see illogic and double standard in all of this, that can only mean one thing. You’re a racist. /snark
Speaking of double standards, Jeralynn as a post today trashing Newt Gingrich for saying we can, indeed, kill American citizens like Awlaki if they’re enemy combatants during a time of war. Calls it unlawful and crazy.
Well, ok. Not defending Newt, by any means.
But Jeralynn never mentions that the current American president completely AGREES with Newt Gingrich. His Justice Dept even wrote a secret memo justifying same. (you know, like Yoo wrote a secret memo justifying water boarding).
I’m so offended by their inability to criticize The One. Srsly.
I know, that kind of hypocrisy is maddening. Obama went even farther than Bush, he had two American citizens executed and justified it by declaring them enemy combatants. Nobody even wants to talk about that reality, they’re all focused on the evil Republicans whose crime apparently, is to completely agree with the president.
No rapes occurred at Tea Parties.
and they clean up.
Taxes, taxes, taxes. Anyone else notice that the whole point and issues talked about by OWS is taxes. That’s a party machine, wall street framing. Notice there’s little or no protesting about helping the poor, providing a safety net, equal rights, making real changes to health care so it covers everyone or is more affordable. Nope, it’s just a carefully divisive yelling match, all surrounding a power created meme of who we should tax and how much. Of course if they protested over any traditionally liberal concepts, it would be very clear Obama wasn’t on their side on those issues. Curious.
I know! It’s just “tax the rich” over and over again. So what are we going to do with all this tax money we collect? Fund more wars? Build more Guantanamos? They don’t know, they haven’t thought about it.
The problem with demanding more taxes from the wealthiest is that they can afford to hire the smartest accountants. Or move to countries that would appreciate them more…..and spend the millions on their local economies.
I wish OWS would demand a fair/flat sort of tax, which is truly a more level tax playing field since you’re only taxed on what you spend and abolishes the IRS and income taxes. (and totally fair for the poor with safety nets included)
I could get behind them then
Companies that are big enough can also incorporate in other countries to avoid corporate income taxes. Bill Clinton has recently advocated for the US to reduce its 2nd highest in the world 35% corporate tax rate to keep business in this country. Why not? I’d rather see GE pay 25% than the 0% it pays now.
There was a debate last night ? Hot Air has a good overview, looks like Perry redeemed himself.

New thread up on this topic
Saw it right after I posted
That cartoon says it all.
WTF ? Sounds like OWS and the Unions are teaming up for Nov 17.
