Fox News nuff said.........lol

A bit of Fox propaganda goes a long way. The same people who claim Barack Obama is racist against white people.

Credible media outlets such as Aljazeer or RT would be a better option.

Welcome to the real world where women get raped. There are rapes in all areas of society. How do you know it's not the opposer's coming in and taking advantage of the situation? Did the rapists stick around to declare they're part of the Occupy movement.

No, I'm not sticking up for rapists. Now we have left and right wing rapists, what next?

An epidemic of reported rapes and sexual assault against women has plagued the Occupy Wall Street movement in the past weeks. Just recently a 19-year-old Cleveland victim claimed she was raped after being directed by 'Occupy' officials to share a tent with a man named 'Leland' and a 14-year-old Dallas victim was sexually assaulted after running away from home to join the protests. To get a good sense of the dire conditions facing women, watch the following video of a protester in Zuccotti Park...

Fox news

There is a rising amount of reports of rapes and sexual assualts occuring at these occupy protesting movements from baltimore, dallas and cleveland, I guess we may have some lefties over there who like to rape or sexually assault women

Best not to call in the boys from the ADF to sort it out!

FFS, Stryder et al, the lowest common denominator in sexual assault perpetrators is GENDER not political persuasion - and the sooner our society recognises and addresses that fact, the better!

Lamenting the shift in the Australian psyche, away from the egalitarian ideal of the fair-go - and the rise of short-sighted pollies, who worship the 'Growth Fairy' and seek to divide and conquer!

A valuable lesson is being learned by the idealists at these "occupy" events. They are starting to disocver that a lot of the lower class people who have joined them aren't really oppressed by the system at all - they are just lowlifes.

It's true to say there will be rape and abuse wherever there are people massed. Any crime will be handled accordingly by the authorities, but never let side issues get in the way of the cause, it is too important.

Women's rights and justice for women are fundamentals of a democratic society.

Rape of both women and men are horrific crimes but they are not politically motivated, they are power trips for the weak.

Is rape a valuable lesson?

The occupy events in the US are hotbeds of crime of all sorts, not just rape. What is playing out is that the idealists are realising they really represent a tiny minority - less than 1% - that actually believe strongly enough in their cause to do this. The problem is that any protest against authority is going to be a magnet for scum and lowlives - not becasue of any legitimate grievances, just because they are scumbags. Unfortunately for the bright eyed idealists, the scum vastly outnumbers them and will soon displace them. It's a shame the teaching method is so harsh for some, but the lesson here is that many people don't want, or deserve your help. They are not all angels struggling against oppression by da man, some of them are down the bottom rungs of society because that's where they belong.

It it wasn't for those on the very top rung, there'd just be a different bunch of people on the top rung. The pecking order is an unavoidable consequence of social interaction. In every interaction between people, both as individuals or as groups, there is a mini power struggle playing out, mostly subconscuiously, but sometimes consciously - equality is not possible.

It might be entirely subconscious, but it's happening. Body language can often tell an outside observer a lot more about the power relationship between 2 people a lot bettter than those 2 people know themselves.

I personally believe you could take all the wealth in the world and distribute it equally to every person on earth and within a few generations it would be concentrated roughly as it is today.

Politicians and Nappies need to be changed often and for the same reason.

One trouble with political jokes is that they often get elected.

Alan Joyce for PM
