Occupy Michigan!

What have I warned?!!

These are
not protests or sleepovers! They're militant anarcho-communist occupations!

At The Michigan Messenger, "
Activists Confirm Plans to Peacefully Take Capitol":

A group of Michigan activists has confirmed that it plans to stage a protest in the state Capitol building at 4 p.m. today.

Lance Enderle, a former Democratic candidate for Michigan’s 8th Congressional district, confirmed moments ago that he is leading the protest.

“We are planning to exercise our free speech rights in a non-violent way,” Enderle said. “We will take the Rotunda, and we are not leaving.”

The Capitol building closes at 5:30 p.m. and officials have told Michigan Messenger that anyone remaining in the building after 5:30 will be given a 10 minute warning to leave. If they don’t leave, Michigan State Police troopers could eject them or arrest them for trespassing.
Turns out that the ...
... protesters were kicked out around 5:45 this afternoon, but many of them are sitting down and refusing to leave, yelling, “This is a war on the middle class!”
Right.

So much for that big "occupation." See, "
Tuesday Capitol protests anti-climatic: Crowd disperses once threatened with arrest."

But communist Michael Moore is undeterred, with plans for a big event tomorrow night, "
Letter to My Fellow Michiganders":
Please show up at noon on Wednesday for our first mega-rally against this insanity. Hundreds of groups are already organizing car pools and buses. You can right now just declare yourself an organizer and get your friends and neighbors committed to being in Lansing. If ever there were a day to call in sick, Wednesday is it (because this IS sick). Students, if ever there were a day to cut class and become a participant in your democracy, Wednesday is it. This event needs to be HUGE -- and I believe it will be if you will simply be there and take a stand.
Gotta love it. Have public employees call in sick when they're not sick, and students will be truants as well as participants. Progressives just want to overthrow the entire legal and moral realm.

That is sick.

I think Michael Moore meant to write this:

"Letter to my fellow Meshuggenenders"

me·shug·ge·neh (m-shg-n) or me·shug·ge·ner (-nr)
adj.
Crazy; senseless.
n.
One who is crazy.
