Everybody's been too damn polite about this nonsense:

The "Occupy" movement, whether displaying itself on Wall Street or in the streets of Oakland (which has, with unspeakable cowardice, embraced it) is anything but an exercise of our blessed First Amendment. "Occupy" is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America.

"Occupy" is nothing short of a clumsy, poorly-expressed attempt at anarchy, to the extent that the "movement" – HAH! Some "movement", except if the word "bowel" is attached – is anything more than an ugly fashion statement by a bunch of iPhone, iPad wielding spoiled brats who should stop getting in the way of working people and find jobs for themselves.

This is no popular uprising. This is garbage. And goodness knows they're spewing their garbage – both politically and physically – every which way they can find.

Wake up, pond scum. America is at war against a ruthless enemy.

Maybe, between bouts of self-pity and all the other tasty tidbits of narcissism you've been served up in your sheltered, comfy little worlds, you've heard terms like al-Qaeda and Islamicism.

And this enemy of mine — not of yours, apparently – must be getting a dark chuckle, if not an outright horselaugh – out of your vain, childish, self-destructive spectacle.

In the name of decency, go home to your parents, you losers. Go back to your mommas' basements and play with your Lords Of Warcraft.

Or better yet, enlist for the real thing. Maybe our military could whip some of you into shape.

They might not let you babies keep your iPhones, though. Try to soldier on.

Schmucks.

Responses have been… mixed;

"I have a good friend who proudly served in the Navy during the height of the current conflicts. Ever since coming home he's been struggling, eking out an existence literally flipping burgers… When the movement started, he went up to San Francisco to help. Now he's using his experiences to write instructional pamphlets for the protesters."

"You tell 'em, Frank. Hey, remember when people were getting raped, robbed and shot at Tea Party rallies? Yeah, me neither."

"Remember the Frank Miller who donated to groups that supported creator-owned companies? The guy who printed "Give 'em an inch, they'll take a Mile" in big bold letters on the back cover of one of his books? He was talking about CORPORATIONS, not big government. He was protesting corporations that exploit their workers."

"The Occupiers are astroturf concocted by the white house and big left. and is composed of child molesters, rapeos, escaped mental patients, anti-semites and trust fund babies. They have no coherent message. but because they want more government regulations which favors the state and the very people they think they're protesting against, they are nothing but tools of the very elites they claim to oppose.

"A man once told me there were worse things in the world than thieves and murderers. Then he got old and shortsighted and stupid and scared and marinated in the phony-ass tough-guy macho posturing horseshit that he liked to write for too many years.

"Get 'em, Frank. You have created more value and quality of life than your detractors put together. It is people like you who improve our lives, and the Marxist dolts "Occupying" things who destroy value."

"Frank Miller has always been a bit of a dick, hell its well known that the the guy hates his own audience but this take the biscuit. What the fuck has the War on terror got to do with stopping corporate greed anyway? Unless Miller has share in a weapons company or something? I mean seriously WTF?"

"Thanks for saying this, Mr. Miller. "Illegitimi non carborundum.""

"Mr. Miller, have you attended ANY OWS rally? How is this not a popular uprising, even if they are self-involved children (a point I don't concede)? Do only protests with focused frontmen need apply, and no group which is making its decision in democratic manner (and thereby bifurcated) a legitimate force? Are Tea Party Rallies acceptable?"

"The Outdoors We'll Sh*t putsch is the public, adult equivalent of one of those enraged, screaming, and worst of all unchecked tantrums we've all heard at the local supermarket. You know, where the kids are raising the "parents" and doing a predictably lousy job of it."
