Occupy America speaker calls for violent revolution to destroy the bourgeoisie, and the audience cheers

The video and transcript are at Pajamas Media:

Occupy L.A. Speaker: “One of the speakers said the solution is nonviolent movement. No, my friend. I’ll give you two examples: French Revolution, and Indian so-called Revolution.

Gandhi, Gandhi today is, with respect to all of you, Gandhi today is a tumor that the ruling class is using constantly to mislead us. French Revolution made fundamental transformation. But it was bloody.

India, the result of Gandhi, is 600 million people living in maximum poverty.

So, ultimately, the bourgeoisie won’t go without violent means. Revolution! Yes, revolution that is led by the working class.

Long live revolution! Long live socialism!”

Crowd: [Cheers.]

Also, the Occupy Wall Street demonstrators are on a video posted at Gateway Pundit chanting “You can have sex with animals.”

A commenter at Gateway Pundit says, “These chants terrify me—can’t believe this is America. This is not going to end well.”

That’s what I said for eight years about the increasing insanity of the Democrats. While most Republicans and conservatives cheered the Democratic insanity because it meant that Republicans would win elections, I said repeatedly, “A country in which half the population is crazy is a country in deep trouble.”

An Indian living in the West writes:

I think people on the “right” are over-reacting to this. The crowd that is putting together this movement is so rag-tag and dishevelled, they couldn’t organise a local riot let alone a revolution. What they need is a shower and some properly washed clothes.

LA replies:

You’re missing the significance of it, that the “respectable” left is embracing it. That is extraordinary.
