may 2012 rabble rouser of the month nominees
benjamin lerman coady (west hartford, connecticut) ~
13 year old spots mistake in MET exhibit
so, there! thousands of people didn’t notice a mistake in the map of the byzantine empire, but this kid did. so, next time your kid thinks he knows more than you do, give the sucka a chance! chances are, he might be right!
natalia juarez (guadalajara, jalisco, mexico) ~
topless pose in campaign photo
you know how many people are outraged & offended by this little stunt? you know how much i care about what people wanna think? they’re jealous she’s gonna win & frankly it’s a good ploy to bring some cheer to a country that has has been wracked with official corruption & the most obscene drug violence over the past few decades. go natalia!
matt zekan (newport, oregon) ~
poster boy for free speech
so when this dude’s dad was gonna be sacked by lincoln county, he went on the offensive & plastered them with posters of protest. then county officials started issuing tresspassing orders & other such fines for receiving too many complaints. um, ok. they are public offices, that should be enough to give him the right to picket if he wanted to. county officials think it was harrassment on his part. he probably thinks it’s harrassment on their part. sue the pants off of them, oscar!
sharon jones (bebee, arkansas) ~
lottery winner?
so a woman in arkansas throws away a ticket that she thought was not a winner. another woman picks it out of the trash, collects $1 million. that’s the way it is supposed to work right? wrong. not so cut & dry. at first a judge ordered the woman who bought the ticket was entitled to the money. now it’s getting a new trial. the part that makes this most shocking is that the store is trying to sue sharon jones for taking the ticket out of the trash! shut up! what’s thrown away is fair game. they just want a piece of the pie. sharon jones may not be a rabble rouser, per say, but some greedy people in arkansas sure are making her deserve this month’s award.
Anything in the trash is for everyone, and a vacant building is for anyone who needs it. You don't own your trash. I vote Sharon Jones as rabble rouser of the month.
ReplyDeletethanks! good call! yes, a vacant building should be open to squatters!
ReplyDeleteMy vote goes to Natalia Juarez. there is a war going on in Mexico that nobody is talking about and topless women can only serve to help cheer everybody up.
ReplyDeletethat would be my hope in the whole ordeal, but when you get bloodthirsty drug runners, she may just look like a high profile target.
