Hey, I found an interesting list here.
Maybe I should start a thread "This is how low some Democrats will go ..."
By all means, present the evidence that in each one of these cases, the person's political leaning (if we assume only Democratic, Independent and Republican exist an all others dont) is that of a 'Democrat'. Heck, show its a 'liberal' that did it. More so, all this information comes from the same site, whom by the way, wishs to 'speak the truth'. Funny they dont have all their facts, since they are bashing Democrats and Liberals even though there is no direct or even casual evidence to support this arguement. More so, this group of four individuals is based in Orange County, CA (which is VERY Republican oriented). Are they conservative/Republican? Dont know, but if they weren't, what is their motive for nearly 80% of their 'coverage' being of negative subjects regarding the Occupy Movement? Why not show positive subjects that have come as a result of the Occupy Movement? After all, if they 'seek the truth', its fair to say some good things have come from all this as well. Why isn't this ALSO included?

Occupy Seattle – Suspicious fire at Bank of America 2.7 miles from camp
This could have been done by ANYONE, INCLUDING BoA owners. But this 'Verum Serum' accusation based on NO EVIDENCE that a Democrat and/or Liberal did it. In fact, why not look at where the Washington State Republican Party is located on an ACTUAL MAP: 11811 N.E. 1st Street, Suite A306, Bellevue, WA 98005. You'll find they are MUCH closer than the Occupy Base Camp in Seattle. Now, would those guys have a motive in making the Occupy group in Seattle look bad? You Bet'cha (to quote Sarah Palin).

Occupy Orlando – Knife fight sends man to hospital
If I understand this one correctly, neither attacker/defender were ever asked if they were actually a Democrat and/or Liberal (as funny as that sounds, since all Democrats/Liberals play only drums, right?). What exactly happened that lead up to the actual fistfight that would lead onto the knife entering play? Yeah, the police give a rather vague accounting (if we examine this objectively). We'll never know what really happen I suppose. Still, neither this Verum Serum nor you provide evidence that either one was a Democrat/Liberal. For all we know they are both registered Republican!

Occupy Boston – Two drug busts in a week
Occupy Boston – Another drug arrest
Occupy Boston – Heroin dealers busted were living with 6 year old boy directly behind welcome tent
The two quoted in italics come from the Boston Herald. Firm, take it from a Masshole directly: The Boston Herald is not a real newspaper. They are very bias in their news coverage here in the Commonwealth. The 'newspaper' is much more like a tabloid than an actual publication of journalism. That said, the non-italic one comes from the Boston Globe. Most of the conservative minded folks here in the state dislike it because it often does a pretty good job getting its facts straight (yeah, it does screw up on things....and they have a corrections section close to the front page every day....something not seen in the Boston Herald).
The 'Another Drug Arrest' simply points out a very obvious concept: Drugs are in large cities and dealers wish to be around those that might buy. Not sure why this is news, other than the man didnt give his REAL address (maybe he did to the police officers later). If your going to blame all of Occupy Boston for this individual's reckless behavior, than its fair to wonder why you dont bash George W. Bush for his reckless behavior over eight years in the Office of the President?

Occupy SF: ATMs being smeared with feces
I'm sure I could go down the list of 'Verum Serum's baseless accusations that each of these cases is the act of a 'Democrat and/or Liberal', disproving each one. Not once do they nor you, Firm, show enough evidence that the accused were of that polical philosophy. They (and you) have simply looked at the 'Occupy' location and anything bad that happened around it as being directed tied to the 'organization'. Did you even bother to actually READ the articles from Verum Serums site OR the locations they took those 'bits of information' from?
This one, the ATMs being smeared with feces shows something I've never encountered with Tea Party members: Understanding what it means to be both Accountable and Responsible for one's actions/words. The older liberal is bashing the younger one on the miss-merits of smearing ATMs with feces. Yet I do not believe either the older one or the guy holding the camera had anything directly to do with the issue. It was trying to explain that the Occupy Movement has to be sensative and aware of its surroundings and the kinds of people that would love nothing better than to undermine the purpose of the organization's concept.
