Project 21 spokesman Stacy Swimpput together these comments about the radical celebration of May Day and the contradictions in their words and acts:
Protesters, many aligned with the Occupy Wall Street movement, seek to disrupt American business today in observance of International Workers’ Day (May Day).
Banks in Manhattan received suspicious (albeit non-toxic) powder in envelopes. Businesses were vandalized. Threats to disrupt commuters have been made.
Stacy Washington, a member of the Project 21 black leadership network, says: “The protest plan is to have major nationwide action on May Day to disrupt normal, everyday activities. It’s attention-seeking behavior at its worst. Like children throwing a tantrum, they should be ignored. Without a clear goal, or objective, Occupy protesters are a constant reminder of just what this country does not stand for: rape, destruction of private and public property, filth, violence and disrespect for the American way.”

The Occupy movement really does resemble nothing so much as a group of small children throwing a temper tantrum over some tchotchkes to which they believe they are entitled. That thought crosses my mind (I have four children under the age of five, so I’m something of an expert on little-kid tempter tantrums) every time I see or hear coverage of one of Occupy’s “actions.”
