Occupy Monday 6/9/14 Edition: Kids as Props

It’s Monday. Time to Occupy again.

This week it’s about Education. Specifically it looks like they are targeting school choice. Ironically, the same vouchers Occupy Monday are complaining about are specifically for low income students — the very people they claim to be protesting for.

The NC NAACP wasted no time in using kids as props for their flyer. This includes the Defacto Leader of the NC Democrats posing with a child with special needs to promote his agenda: Continue reading

Young Marxist Thrilled Parents Arrested At Moral Monday

I’ve been providing proof for a while that ‘Moral Monday’ is indeed, far Left with direct ties to communist groups and unions. Nice to see it so out and in your face lately. From the article, Communist Day in New Haven, we find a reference to Occupy Monday. Laurie Kennington is a Marxist and member of the Young Communist League. She was thrilled her parents were arrested at Occupy Monday in North Carolina.

Her parents are Elizabeth and Gregory Kennington who were arrested on June 3rd, 2013. You can look it up for yourself. Related articles: #MeltdownMonday – June 3rd Edition Arrests and #MeltdownMonday – June 3rd Edition

Emphasis added below is mine.

Rounding out the trio was Yale’s Laurie Kennington, who praised the work of a local group called New Elm City Dream and of the Young Communist League for their “commitment to fight unemployment.”
In truth, the Young Communist League has long been committed to more than just jobs. In the 1930s, it refused to waver one inch from the Stalinist party line. The young American Bolsheviks in the YCL were completely subservient to the Soviet Union. At the Seventh World Congress in Moscow in 1935, smack in the middle of Stalin’s famines and mass purges, the Communist International described “the Young Communist League of the United States” as “a great success.” Continue reading

5 Occupy Monday Arrestees Have Prior Records

The first “Moral Monday” saw some arrests and Carolina Plott Hound pointed out two of them had prior criminal records. Plott Hound had found information on “Minister” Rubye Harris with “Assault (2012), larceny, credit card fraud“, and Tyrek Pierce with “Robbery, larceny, false imprisonment“.

Not a single media outlet has reported this beyond New Media like this blog and Carolina Plott Hound. I’m in receipt of information on three more, making for a total of five “Moral Monday” arrestees with prior criminal records. Some of these records contain felonies and include assault. Nice “Moral” Flock you have there, Reverend Barber.

Here are all five: Continue reading

Occupy Monday 6/2/14 Edition

It’s Monday again. Time to Occupy.

Today’s performance: Environmental and Health Justice

Well, they marched. This time the prop was a collection of letters they shoved into the doors of the legislature.

Well, 30 of the occupiers headed inside the legislature to protest according to the official Occupy Monday news outlet, WRAL.

The Occupy Monday News said that 13 stayed inside and when the building closed were told to leave. For some reason WRAL doesn’t say they were arrested for trespassing when they refused to leave, instead they use the language “cited” for trespassing:

“The 13 protesters who remained after a State Capitol Police officer advised the group at 5:07 p.m. that the building was closed and were asked to leave were taken into custody, cited for trespassing and released about two hours later.” – WRAL

ABC11 clarifies what WRAL won’t: Continue reading

#DM7 Article: Far Left NC Dem Protests Return

This is a reposting of my weekly DaTechGuy column: Far Left NC Dem Protests Return

———————————————

By A.P. Dillon

When I began writing here at DaTechGuy, I opened with a series of articles that laid out the landscape of the Left in North Carolina called “A Primer on The Left In NC”. You can read parts two, three and four. One of the main characters in that series is Reverend William Barber of the NC NAACP. He began a series of protests called “Moral Monday”, which in 2013 led to nearly 900 arrests at the NC General Assembly.

The list of complaints by this ‘movement’ are what one might expect — demands for more big government, more spending, more Medicaid, opposing the very popular Voter ID law and a sustained assault on the Republican leadership in the state through a strategy calling for activists to “cripple, eviscerat, pressure and slam” them. Moral Monday desperately wants to emulate the protests in Wisconsin, but to date have yet to do much besides become the punchline to local jokes. Continue reading

Occupy Monday Sit-In Arrestees Not Allowed Back

The 14 people arrested at the first Occupy Monday at the NC General Assembly are not going to be allowed back into the legislature building until after July 11th. The press and the NC NAACP keep calling this group the “Tillis 15”, but only 14 were arrested. Is Barber is counting himself as the 15th or is he doing Common Core math?

According to documents held by Wake County Clerk of Superior Court, the 15 fast food workers and pastors who were arrested for nonviolent civil disobedience in Thom Tillis’s office earlier this week are not allowed back at the General Assembly until July 11th, after Moral Monday is over.
