Just imagine the firestorm that would set off. If “rich” executives were to descend on the homes of “activists” and comment on their lifestyles with envy and a sense of entitlement dripping from them.
Not likely.
On the other hand, the opposite is very much in evidence.
The Connecticut Working Families Party this weekend has organized a bus store that will make stops at Wilton, Connecticut, AUG office as well as the security-patrolled homes of AUG execs who are fearing for their lives.
“We’re going to be peaceful and lawful in everything we do,” said Jon Green, the director of Connecticut Working Families. “I know there’s a lot of anger and a lot of rage about what’s happened. We’re not looking to foment that unnecessarily,………..
Note the wording: “We’re not looking to foment that unnecessarily”. Which brings out a host of questions about what the organizers think IS necessary. Obviously, respecting other people’s privacy is not, regardless of how they try to play this.
The media outnumbered the “busload”, incidentally. The “activists” know how to play the media game and the media responds in Pavlovian fashion.
So, if you happen to be successful – or “rich” – in the brave, new Hope-Changey America - you can expect
ex-post-facto laws from Congress “attainting” you, confiscating your assets and a busload of crazies – er – activists to pull up to your door.
Is this your America?
Is this what you really voted for, America?
