What Billy Clubs Are For
There are people who cry out to be clubbed. If you don't agree, maybe the video below will convince you.
First, Hot Air sets the scene:
A student group holed up in the campus cafeteria [at New York University] last week for three days with a list of demands including, among various other items, scholarships for Palestinian students, greater budgetary transparency, and complete amnesty for themselves, of course. On day three, NYU got bored with taking them semi-seriously and moved to end it.
Without further ado…
Greg Gutfeld is right: anyone who sympathizes with these people is beyond hope.
On a tip from Burning Hot.

I'm trying to figure out if I should laugh at them, or cry for them out of pity. Why does this generation think everything is owed to them and that they are above the rules...

Speak truth to power!

Talk about "bait and switch"! I sat through the whole video, waiting to see these jr.marxists get some sense knocked into their heads with a billy club. Instead, it ends with a whimper.

But wait.
Right now, these people are the "power."
So WTF?

Forget billy clubs. Seal the place up, send in those belching, flatulent sheep while piping in Slim Whitman singing, loudly.

So ridiculous mostly all I can muster is pity....too bad the $50k tuition doesn't include anything on property rights 101.

The nutty liberal students and administrators deserve eachother. The police and security were the only grownups there.

No wooden shampoo?!?
BOO! BOO!!
I am sorely disappointed. I thought this was going to be a lesson in proper use of the truncheon.
These losers never change, they just pay more tuition now.
"We're using consensus! We're using consensus!" These air wasters don't even know what consensus is. Notice the part where the camera "man" says they'll just reach consensus without their comrades on the balcony. Idiots.

Meanwhile, in third world hellholes around the world, better young men and women are these are putting their lives on the line for the benefit of these pampered "hipster hippies". Many of our young service members are serving in part to earn the means to attend a university via the GI Bill. What fools they are, since Obama is now intimating that he'll (or, more appropriately, we'll) provide a free ride through college for iPod toting, MacBook wielding brats like these. I'm a working man with a good career and I don't have the array of gadgets that moron with the camera was frantically inventorying. I'm really steamed!

The absolute funniest part was the corporate water part. Guess they think the laptop, nifty bags, books, clothing, video camera, the building they are in all came into being by gnomes spinning fairy dust.

Make the rebelous young liberal moonbats clean the floor with a toothbrush and teacup of water and let them know they dont run the place
Posted by: SPURWING PLOVER at February 26, 2009 8:16 PM
they are incompetent and do not realize that its the freedom and the respect for it they are destroying that gives them the ability to do what they are doing and NOT be treated poorly.
the new regime that is building will not stand for the antics that were used in the free state to tear it down.
i wonder what a survey of these people asking the question of what happened to the protesters after tianemen square?
Posted by: artfldgr at February 26, 2009 8:30 PM
VH, you got me all psyched up for some hippie beat-down action, and then the video didn't deliver! Oh well, it was kind of fun watching them make asses of themselves (the "students" and the administration both).
Posted by: CoderInCrisis at February 26, 2009 8:33 PM
I can't decide which one was most in need of a billy club to the head or stomach: The pretentious dork using the camera, The white dude with dreadlocks (A fashion statement which essentially screams "I'm a pathetic poseur douchebag, please kick the crap out of me"), or the gutter- mouthed thug who dropped the F- bomb every few seconds and loved calling the security guards and university officials (Who appeared to be good, patient people just doing their jobs and trying their best to handle what must have been an extremely exasperating situation) "Rats" and "Snakes."
Oh, and IOpian, I too think it's funny that the guy speaks contemptuously of "Corporate water," yet they have a video camera and several laptops, all undoubtedly made by those eeeeeevil corporations they claim to have such contempt for.
Posted by: Adam at February 26, 2009 8:36 PM
I have a request:
Can the administrators drop their pants, so we can verify the rumor that they have no cojones?
Who has authority over university property? The school admins, or the rabble?
Posted by: Smokey at February 26, 2009 8:38 PM
"You are trespassing on private property. You have 60 seconds to disburse."
That's all the dialog needed. CAN YOU BELIEVE THESE PRETENTIOUS PUNKS? Negotiate? Consensus?
This is what is being taught in college by the likes of Bill Ayers. AND NOW OBAMA WANTS TO MAKE AT LEAST A YEAR OF THIS SHIT MANDATORY.
Privileged little bastards need a lesson in reality. "Nope, this isn't your classroom and nope, everything your radical teacher told you wasn't true. Now move or find out how good Mace tastes."
By the way, did you notice how well organized these punks were? Did you see how "democratically" they got their "consensus"? Hell, they couldn't stop yelling "fuck you" long enough to even talk to one another.

The real world will be a tough transition.
Ah, to be young and naive. I think I'll
have another sip of my corporate water! LOL

And to top it off, I am sure I saw the mandatory palestinian head scarf around a young ladies neck....

Line 'em up and give 'em a good dose of the "Edison Medicine" (aka the Taser). Hey, they use electro-convulsive therapy on people with certain mental disorders, right?
Posted by: PabloD at February 26, 2009 10:45 PM
Aussie-John,
Definitely saw the obligatory Shemaugh on the "violent" chick's neck. Poor girl doesn't know she'd be killed for wearing it in some countries. I particularly liked the girl holding up the twin orders for five roman beers...

"I'm trying to figure out if I should laugh at them, or cry for them out of pity. Why does this generation think everything is owed to them and that they are above the rules..."
Because "Protesters" are ALL silver-spooned trust found babes who would protest for anything and never had any real obstacles in life.

Aussie- John, for future reference, it's called a kaffiyeh.
And, yeah, it is a top fashion choice for moronic activist college students whose brains have been fried by drug use.
They especially like, as a way to further display what brainless, hypocritical nincompoops they are, to show up at protests wearing a kaffiyeh, and also some form of Communist memorabilia (i.e. a Che Guevara shirt, a bag or purse with a hammer & sickle patch sewn onto it, etc), because they're too stupid to realize that the two ideologies are drastically opposed to each other.

Wow, they ARE a bunch of idiots, aren't they! The way he was bleating, you can't come in here, students free space, was a hoot. *what are you doing, what are you doing?* Best laugh I've had in awhile! The school was smart to have people filming for THEM too, when these kids were finally confronted and ultimately removed.
Posted by: Teresa at February 27, 2009 5:03 AM
Where the hell do those morons think bottled water comes from? A gnomes magical bladder? For hating corporations the way they do they don't think twice about buying bottled water from a corporations. God are these retards really University students?
The only thing these morons deserved was if the guards brought a half dozen dobermans into the cafeteria and unleashed them on those morons to give them a cold hard taste of reality.

What, no Ready Ranger Power Pack and GI Joe Walkie-Talkies to be confiscated?

What a bunch of spoiled brats. These people need some serious organization. In the 60s we would have forced them to drag us out bloodied and screaming for the whole world to see.
Kids today have no respect for the past, they expect everything to come easy. Why does the idiot holding the camera keep blathering about consensus? Where were their leaders? Where were their demands? Every revolution needs an agenda, every revolution needs a leader. Sheesh...kids today.
Posted by: peacenik at February 27, 2009 5:54 AM
Skullcracker- dobermans would have been a nice touch, I agree!
Unfortunately for the "protestors" involved here, using big words does not also allow you to use concepts that do not apply to the situation. "You're on private property..." Yeah. Owned by the University. "We need a concensus to decide whether or not to comply with your demands." Who the f*ck does that twerp think he is? Above or outside the law? Are they not citizens of this country? I love the security guard that said "This isn't war, here." Maybe if we could have gotten these little punks to renounce their citizenship on camera, the administration could have brought in military-level force to put a quick and decisive end to that nonsense. (Can you imagine: "They've taken over the student lounge, they insist we comply with their terms, and they say they aren't American citizens?") Little smart-ass bastards are lucky they didn't ALL get really, really f*cked up by proper (read: reasonable) use of force. They're lucky if they receive only the resulting expulsions.
Sorry for the length of the post here, but seeing some little ingrates pulling a stunt like that really makes me angry.

Did you see the Iowahawk parody, about how the stock market soared 1100 points when NYU students took over the White House and locked Obama out? "Finally, we have some sanity in the White House" said one market analyst.
Posted by: Karin at February 27, 2009 6:38 AM
So many moments of idiocy, but my favorite...
"They probably drink corporate water..."
It's very sad that students no longer go to college to learn. Apparently, they got there already knowing more than everyone else. Why bother paying tuition?
Posted by: Crit_Zer0 at February 27, 2009 7:39 AM
If their going to act like a bunch of spoiled little brats then treat them like spoiled brats and send them to their dorms without a ny supper take away the TVs and computers

Having seen this kind of 'thinking' first-hand quite a few times in my short 40 years, I really didn't have to scrape these frames from the video to know what I'd find -- but as an exercise in illumination, here are the frames in which the young woman who was being 'brutalized' (or so you would think from the noise she was making for the benefit of the video camera) can be seen with her face toward the camera (let this be a lesson to all you LibTards who work demonstrations like this in the future -- NEVER let the faces of your 'victims' be seen on camera).
She is not in distress. She is giddy that she is 'getting' the officers for their 'brutality'.

My thought is, if you want to get credit for being a victim, I really wish you understood what being a victim really meant. No, I don't wish bad on anyone -- but to claim that society owes you their sorrow when they really don't means you are writing a check you don't have the funds to back up. She (like all of them) is a disgrace to all people in the world who really DO need someone to stand up for them, and 'fight the power'.

in the 1990s at UofA in AZ a complete tool decided to protest something(honestly i don't remember it was like 20 years ago) so he climbed the student union clock tower with rock climbing gear. the clock has a staircase and a service door, but he decided to climb it. So he gets on top of the clock and sets up camp on the roof, for 6 months. he had his banners and he would lower a basket down for people to give him food. then one day 6 months later after he became boring and people forgot he was even up there he started throwing his feces at people below.
long story short the beating the cops gave him to the cheers of the crowd of people on the mall made me smile as i walked to class.
he made the arizona wildcat as a small blurb and that was that.
all in all the chronic masterbators in the UofA library are more remembered then this guy.
if you can find the old book, Arizona Wildcat police beat all stars your in for a treat of liberal beat downs.

Was in a store once and there was this pampered kid who screamed at his mother.."mom I said stop and listen to me". And she did. He will most likely turn out like this children never understanding the concept that in the end might does make right.
When my nephew was about 4 he was out spending the weekend and I told him he couldn't go swimming until he picked up his toys he had scattered around the pool. They were small plastic construction pieces and could puncture a bare foot... like they had done mine.
He responded by putting his hands on his hips and in a sassy fashion informed me that his momma and daddy said he doesn't have to do what I say. I went over to him and placed a tight grip on his skull, firm enough to not hurt him but to let him feel overwhelming force. I explained to him that right now I could crush his skull and his life is literally in my hands. If he can't figure out to do what I ask out of respect for the guy with the pool then he will do it out of fear. The choice is his.
He is a grown man now and he and I laughed about that episode whenever he was home from Iraq. To have been 4 at the time and still remember this it must have made a profound impact as a life lesson.

Unfortunately there are a LOT of these people out there and they are invading the "work" place. I'm in my late 50s, planning on working til I drop (no choice, no "retirement" other than social security)... and it pains me daily to have to deal with this CRAP. They all sound alike, same as these "guys" right down to the self-appointed "leader", the constant talking about every damn thing, trying to "build consensus" etc. Enough to make me ill.

Kind of like those eco-freaks chaining themselves to trees all the time or sitting on roads like the brainless moonbats they are or kind of like a few years ago when that jerk here in california got his legs cut off by a train when him and his group of stupid potheads antiwar activists were sitting on the tracks RPVING MY POINT THAT MOONBATS ARE STUPID AND ABSOLUTLY BRAINLESS
