I prefer to take my capsaicin in a Cajun Martini, thank you, but I do find it somehow characteristic of the extravagant and phantastical rhetoric of the "occupy" "movement" to equate police interference with the delivery of a meal to a group of part-time protesters who could easily find plenty to eat in a plethora of other places, on the one hand, with years of deliberate starvation affecting millions of people, and causing tens of thousands of deaths, on the other hand.

It's common around these parts for people to give out food to the homeless and others on Christmas. No one until yesterday has ever been stopped before.
Always glad to hear that the folks on the hill are enjoying their martinis. We'll keep sending word up to you.

Sounds like they weren't stopped, per se, just relocated for some reason.
"Torture doesn't work" lol
Guess they forgot to tell Bill Buckley. "...as we reason and love, we are able to hope. And hope enables us to resist those things that would enslave us." |

Yes, it was not an issue of whether or not they could have the meal, but where they could have it. To compare that police action to the deliberate creation of a famine is not reasonable.
