And By “Left Behind”, the LA Times Means “Forced Out Too Quickly to Clean Up”
“Sanitation officials said Wednesday that they expect to haul away 30 tons of debris from the Occupy L.A. encampment — everything from clothing to heaps of garbage to oddball curiosities left behind by the protesters who lived at the City Hall tent city for two months.” [LAT]
That’s a lot of rolling papers.
This propaganda piece article is Tea Party porn: Spend most of the article describing the habits of the filthy hippies at the expense of telling the story of why they were there in the first place. #OWS must step up its game to avoid losing control of the narrative.
You didn’t hear the Chinese complaining about the mess left behind in Tiananmen Square after the tanks rolled in. Why can’t our Tea Baggers be more like them and simply pepper spray/beat/kill protestors without calling them slobs afterward?
Oddball curiosities?
Ah, so that’s where someone misplaced Orly Taitz.
