Occupy Update (121011)

It’s hard to believe that it’s been eight days since the last dedicated BizzyBlog Occupy Update.

In that time, a lot a really putrid stuff has piled up — just like at an Occupy encampment.

What follows is just a sampling of items which have appeared the past week or so concerning the Obama-endorsed (proof here, here, here, and here) Occupy movement.

The latest Maxine Waters “That’s Life, It Happens” Update:

• John Nolte’s incomplete but nonetheless useful compilation at BigJournalism.com as of Friday, December 9 is at 417 incidents.
• The total arrest count of 4,752 here is two weeks old, and is well over 5,000 by now.
• Then of course there are the deaths (eight), sexual assaults (19 items in a very incomplete compilation), and other items over at OWSexposed.com (whose numbers are light in certain instances).
• There is one line item in the OWS Exposed list which should never be forgotten — “Number of Tea Partiers Who Committed Such Crimes: 0.”

Here’s a unelaborated-upon bullet list (HTs to either Instpundit or OWSexposed unless otherwise indicated):

• Dec. 5, At Lagniappe’s Lair via Gateway Pundit — “Occupy DC military ‘hero’ was actually kicked-out of military for smoking pot.”
• Dec. 5, at CBS News — “Occupy arrests in D.C., Ore., Tenn.” Over 30 in D.C. alone.
• Dec. 5, at the LA Times — “Occupy San Diego: Nine more arrested, one from a tree”
