Occupy occtrocities: Saginaw edition

I have an interesting mix of occtrocities this morning. Once again I return to Saginaw, Michigan. Rape has been a problem at Occupy camps, so the absurdity of Occupy Saginaw holding a rally where they excoriate prosecutors for not prosecuting enough sexual assault cases is unbounded.

MLive's coverage of the rally has been of a fawning nature, although as you will learn in the first occtrocity, some of the leftists were dismayed when a police officer showed up--he discussed rape prosecutions. At least that schism was mentioned.

On at least three occasions, Occupy rape victims at other tent cities were told not to report their attacks to police officers. Learn more here, here, and here.

An MLive commentator describes this episode perfectly: "Show me someone who hates the police, and I'll show you a criminal."

What else...the luck of the Occupy Irish is running out. While Lincoln, Nebraska is hardly New York in terms of population or liberalism, clearly the Occupy movement is running out of gas there. Just seven people for a Rush Limbaugh protest? That's the best you can do?

And finally, a Brooklyn Occupy artist is planning to make a lot of money exploiting the movement.
