The misfits, malcontents and belligerent revolutionaries that make up the Occupy Movement, emboldened by the Activist-In-Chief sorry excuse for a President, Barack Obama’s support, have drawn a line in the sand and threatening the courts with “demands.”
Next up for protesters: Occupy the Courts.
Lawyers representing about 800 Occupy Wall Street protesters arrested in the past month demand that prosecutors drop the charges.

No respect for the law.
Look at the message this sends. Mob Rule, rules! Do as you please, and nothing will happen.

But unfortunately there’s one great, big obstacle. Barack Obama, Activist-In-Chief.
