‘Occupy’ protesters interrupt Ron Paul: ‘Why do you hate gays?’

[SixthSense]

5. there's nothing new about this

Code Pink has been doing this kind of thing seemingly forever. If you want to change the status quo, repeating what has been tried (and not worked) in the past isn't the way to do it.

First, the number of GOP voters who care about gay rights can probably be counted on one hand. If there was a point to this other than publicity-seeking it must have gotten lost in the planning phase.

Second, if you're going to protest GOP candidates' stands on gay rights, the ones to do it to are Gingrich, Santorum, and Bachmann - the first for hypocrisy and the latter two for their severity.

Third, if you're a veteran and all your family members are veterans, why protest the one guy who won't throw you and your family into a war in some god-forsaken wasteland on the other side of the planet, for reasons dubious at best?

Fourth, if you claim to be with Occupy and then make the news on a topic that is totally different, you only hurt the movement. Issues that split the electorate 50/50 are issues don't belong in a 99% movement.

Someone did not think this through very well.
