Protester Dressed as Clown Imitates Shooting Police With Umbrella Prop Gun at Occupy Seattle

Occupy Seattle Clown Imitates Shooting Police With Umbrella Prop Gun

As details emerge from the horrific shooting in Aurora, Colorado, the nation grieves and remains on edge towards sensitive topics relating to the crime. Knowing that the main Aurora-shooting suspect James Holmes allegedly behaved and disguised himself like “The Joker” clown villain from “The Dark Knight,” troubling new video has emerged of an apparent protester at Occupy Seattle dressed in clown garb pointing an umbrella at police and bystanders, and “shooting” them as if the umbrella were a gun.

Gateway Pundit, where the video is posted, reports that video was filmed Friday at the “Bring the Fight to the Banks” rally and march. In the video the clown is seen hurling the usually Occupy Wall Street “one percent” accusations at police and pedestrians, before aiming the umbrella at those he taunts while yelling “ba-bam, ba-bam!” When one police officier who the clown taunts appears to be getting unhinged by the shooting imitation, the clown brags to protesters “I’m getting to him. I really am.“ At one point a Seattle woman who was heckled by the clown while running to catch a bus yells back ”get a job.” While continually taunting and cursing at the police with fellow protesters, the clown refers to Seattle Police Chief John Diaz “Chief Dumbass.”

The fake shooter is seen with one other protester dressed in clown attire, and the pair may be part of Seattle’s faction of the Clandestine Insurgent Rebel Clown Army, which The Seattle Weekly released an extensive report on last Monday:

“Though relatively small in numbers – roughly eight or nine clowns total, according to members of the group – the players that make up Seattle’s element of the Clandestine Rebel Clown Army have nonetheless put their stamp on a number of important events over the last few months. Debuting at this year’s May Day protests, the Salish CIRCA seeks to put a new, red-nosed face on radicalism, and inspire thought in the tradition of the Theatre of the Oppressed – a method of using theatrical techniques as a means for promoting social and political change championed by Brazilian theatre practitioner Augusto Boal in the 1960s.”

The Seattle clowns that spoke with The Weekly say they were inspired by similar Clandestine Insurgent Rebel Clown Army movements across the world that began in the UK, but operate as autonomous groups.

“We felt there was an opportunity to bring humor to protest, and inspire people to think,” one Seattle CIRCA leader told The Weekly in a conference call. “Society is ripe for parody here in Seattle.”

The Seattle Clowns have reportedly been to a number of events in the area such as protests to the police use of pepper spray during Seattle Pride events, marijuana legalization marches, MayDay Seattle, and multiple appearances outside the Woodland Park Zoo to draw attention to what the group considers the inhumane way in which the elephants are kept.

If the protesting clown in the video below is part of the CIRCA movement, he likely is not bringing humor to Seattle police and pedestrians, and likely only inspiring thoughts on the terrible events in Colorado early Friday morning:

      ROCKHEAD…while I totally agree with you in theory (let them make a fool of themselves and help motivate normal folks to throw the bums in Washington out), think about what these people are starting to do…IF (and we have NO proof positive evidence for this, I’m just speculating) the Dark Knight shooter was black bloc affiliated, then you have to look at this and realize something. They may very well start doing more and more “simulated violence” towards the police until one of two things happen…

      1) An officer mistakes it for a real threat (this same umbrella story could’ve easily turned into this clown…pun intended…getting shot dead if it had been 11 PM or something) and kills an “unarmed” occupier
      2) The cops get so used to seeing these fake displays that they are slow to react when the real stuff goes down.

      IDK, but I know we have a storm brewing

      No that isn’t proof. He didn’t endorse Occupy, he dismissed them. It was an attempt to draw Occupy into supporting him rather than continuing as an independent movement. Nowhere did he support their ideas. He simply said he admires the commitment they have and says they’d be better off supporting him (Obama). I can find quotes of him saying complimentary things about the Tea Party also, does that imply Obama endorses the Tea Party? Is the Tea Party a bunch of Obama pawns?

      Anarchist groups such as the OWS have always been around in history. Remember Abby Hoffman’s “Steal This Book” as a guide to “Monkey War” – a “funny” Guerrilla War … putting glue into parking meters, etc. The anti-Vietnam War protest years were full of these folks, all part and parcel of the Weathermen, the Yippies, etc. Look back farther in time and we have the Wobblies, IWW Agitators, the Luddites and the true Anarchists who were the original Bomb-Throwers. “Les Saboteurs” of the early machine age could even be included, considering their wood shoes in the gears of production. So why are we surprised, outraged, about this sort of thing happening today? These people upset the normal decorum of society — which is their ultimate goal. Once their behavior becomes such that government is at a standstill and everyone is in the streets howling at the moon, their prayers will be fulfilled. Now, as Lenin said one time in a speech: “What is to be done?” The decision to act continues to be in the hands of the American Citizen. When We The People have had enough,, well, we will have had enough and the culprits will be found and their day of the rope will begin. Until that time they are only of interest to the publicity hounds and the news media.

While he is ROTF-PHP check him for ID and run a background on him. If he has no ID put him in a cell until he comes up with ID. When we know he is not an illegal or a foreign-national agitator he can be released back into the civil society to behave civilly. No harm done and life lesson learned. It’s a “Win-Win”. Since his Mamma and Dadda did not train him appropriately he may need a little tuff-luv’n. These officers and their superiors are either nutless wonders or they are TOOLS OF THE SYSTEM.

      Obama On the Occupy movement:

      As the “Occupy Wall Street” protest entered its fourth week it received a ringing endorsement from President Obama who contrasted the protesters’ “sincerity” and “selflessness” with the “hypocrisy” and “self-serving greed” exhibited by the so-called “Tea Party.”

      “The Wall Street protesters have put their whole selves into the fight for social justice,” Obama declared. “They’re not just showing up when it can be conveniently scheduled between working hours and tending to the kids like the right-wing opponents of my policies. They’re here day and night, rain or shine. Their dedication is a model of what it will take to transform America.”

      “As admirable as their tactics have been, let’s not overlook their refreshingly innovative ideas,” Obama urged. “A lot of them parallel what we’ve been trying to do with our stimulus program. Their call for a trillion dollars in additional infrastructure spending and another trillion in ‘green’ spending confirm that I’m on the right track.”
      B H Obama

      I‘d say you’ve been schooled, now back to Huff N Puff Compost for you and your ilk! You leftist trolls haven’t got a clue, nor any argument, so take your “social justice” and stuff it in your pipe of utopia of dreams!

What would you propose to do about it? Do you think running around in a clown mask with an umbrella is having some sort of impact? Do you think an overthrow of the government and an installation of some sort of socialist/communist commune is the answer? It was tried by Jim Jones. It didn’t work out too well. Here’s the deal. We need reforms in many areas. I believe many of the “too big to fail” corporations should be broken up. I don’t believe redistribution of wealth is American, and it won’t work. We need to deal with one big problem at a time. Take your pick…debt, deficit, housing, unemployment, the devalation of the dollar. At this point in history our individual option is to choose the best way forward and vote for like minded people at all levels. Unless you are prepared to set off a nuke in D.C. Are you? As far as GB is concerned, calling people names for becoming informed is ignorant even if you don’t agree with the point of view. G.B. is feeding the homeless, providing employment, talking about honor and courage and love. Somehow you place the clown in higher esteem.

      I do not hold the clown in high esteem. I actually think it is a sickening tactic. There has been plenty of sickening stuff in the Tea Party protests as well, Obama with a Hitler mustache and so on. The double standard of people here is just too much. This site finds the most outlandish Occupy person they can and throws him up on the front page and people eat it up. But the next article they whine about how the “media” is unfair to the Tea Party. Then we hear all this insanity about how Occupy is a bunch of Obama plants and so on… Just the level of hatred and ignorance against people they don’t know, many of whom are out there and, often quite courageously, trying to push back against the deep rooted corruption that exists both within the government and the corporate system. The Occupy people where I lived took in the homeless overflow from the shelters and gave them food and clothing. They fought for working people who were having their houses foreclosed on. They aren’t taking their marching orders from a cable TV personality or former VP candidate, they make decisions themselves through a totally transparent and inclusive democratic process.

      And most of what I hear from Glenn Beck is not “love” and “feeding the homeless”, here is a guy that gets rich by demonizing the weakest and most defenseless among us. He routinely rants against the poor, immigrants, non-christians anybody he decides is “liberal”. The last thing GB is about is love.

You are a socialist shill, hiding behind your progressive roots and want redistribution of wealth. We here, know the Manifesto of Marx…From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. You have no idea the fundamental flaws with that ideology, it is a failure, everywhere it has been tried. Hard work, and education (which anyone can get in America K-12 free) and taking risk make for a successful society. The American individualism made this country great, not some big govt like you think! Govt merely puts out bids for public roads, schools and hospitals for PRIVATE companies to build, paid for by our TAX dollars. There are many private hospitals and schools that the govt has NOTHING to do with either! You people on the left can’t see past the warts on your noses, because you have been brainwashed by the communists in the halls of education, who have NEVER had a real job in their lives, and speak the tripe read from some book!

      “Q” Unlike many here I don’t think all OWS are Obama plants. I understand the disaffection going on. But you failed to answer my question. Ultimately there’s two choices. Destroy America, or work within the system to make it better. It will be a long process because things are very screwed up, and might still lead to our destruction. But, I’m not prepared to give up on the best system ever devised by man, nor am I so disillusioned that I think Americans can’t solve our problems. I know the answer lies in freedom, not more government and not more powerful multi-national corporations that have no alligance to the United States or it’s people. I said I’m not for reditribution of wealth, but I am for redistribution of opportunity. Because of government interference and corporate greed the American spirit has been squashed, for anyone but the very rich. Look at the money it takes to run for president, or even mayor. Globalism is also not the answer. We (Americans) can do more good for the world when we are strong and vibrant. Socialism leads to stagnation and the same class problems we have now. The only answer is to unleash the American people, and stiffle the influence of globalist cabals by using the same anti-trust laws we’ve used before to break up the monstrosity corporations and government. More power to the state and local people. Put the power back in our hands. What’s your solution?

      QUAR: The OWS movement was started by ADBUSTERS. They are militant ” anti-capitlism ” international movements. Just like Bill Ayers who said in a video that he gets up each morning hoping to do what he can ” to destroy capitalism.” Bill and Barack are soul mates. Then we have the Barack and Communist Davis connection. The Barack wants to “ redistribute” quote to Joe the Plumber. Then there is the Barack and Communist Van Jones connection. Then all of Barack ” anti – rich/ anti-bankers / anti WALL STREET / anti-CEOs ” rhetoric. Then his quote about OWS that he ” feels their frustration.” Duh…how much more “evidence” do you Obama shills think is necessary ? Obama is a flaming ” anti-capitalist.“ And most ”normal Americans are NOT . NOBama 2012 No Democrats 2012.

      Actually I attempted to talk with one of these fine young protesters in front of what “used to be” a Bank of America main office in St Pete, Florida who were there to “give BA some what for” (the main office moved 2 yrs prior). I was there on business and waiting for an appointment.

      I said hello to one gal who was pretty ragged looking (after watching her begging anyone who passed by for a cigarette) who stated they (15 or so “what for givers”) had walked all over St Pete trying to find this place and I explained that BA moved 2 yrs prior. She looked at me and said “well tell us where the ”eff” they are then suit?“ She then quickly changed her demeanor and asked in a more kind fashion for a cigarette”… I said nope, don’t smoke, then she muttered “@sshole.”

      Yes, fine young protesters…

      So the Republicans are pro-capitalism and the Democrats anti-capitalism? Gotcha…

      I hate to break it to you, but they both oppose capitalism and support a proto-fascist corporate capitalism. Just look at their policies. They are identical. What have the Democrats done that Republicans haven’t in terms of economic policy? ObamaCare is a Republican healthcare plan… so that is out the door. You have nothing…

      A true capitalist opposes corporations anyway. Back in the 19th century (back when real conservatives existed), conservatives argued (correctly) that a corporation was not a natural economic entity and instead was a collectivist entity created by the state that so severely distorted markets that talking about Capitalism was absurd. They called the corporation “western communism” because they lead to a Soviet style command economy rather than a market economy.

      Today both Democrats and Republicans worship the corporation at the expense of the middle class. Keep buying into this idea that Republicans are the good guys anDemocrats the bad guys. Both represent the same corporate interests. Rhetoric is irrelevant.

      Only ONE political group has “shown support” for OWS…DEMOCRATS! Should I link the hundreds of quotes from communists like Maxine Waters and Debbie blabbermouth Schultz that praise the movement?

      I have no ideology. Simply a commitment to fact and a believe in the inherent worth of every human being. Labeling people with ideologies simply ends intelligent discussion.

      There is virtually no difference between between Republicans and Democrats. Stop focusing on what they say and look at what they do. There is a total continuity of economic and foreign policy. The only shift is a marginal one on social issues. Take a look at the top donors to Obama and Romney. There campaigns are funded by the same people, primarily large banks. Obama does a little better with Silicon valley corporations while Romney and Republicans do better with Energy corporations. If Obama is such an anti-capitalist, why has he raised hundreds of millions of dollars from capitalist firms for his reelection? Obama is not far left. His policies are identical to Bush’s. On foreign policy, on the bailouts and the economy, on taxes, on torture, on domestic surveillance. Go down the line, they are the same. The only major shift is in rhetoric.

      It doesn’t matter much whether Obama or Romney wins. They are both committed to off shoring jobs, handing our tax dollars over to the banks, gutting our education system, killing medicare and social security. They country is going down the tubes either way.

      TIME, Quarando is also a surname that is more common in other parts of the world. It is from really an unknown origin or location though. There are relatively few in this country. I doubt that he has the balls to have been in the service and have first hand knowledge of an Afghani village, but he likely has used his last name. Simple as that.

      QUARANDO, Proto-fascist? You read a book or maybe found something Wikipedia and now display a singular fascination with that word, LOL. The Tea Party’s name comes from Taxed Enough Already. Their whole being is to have less government in all of our lives, reduce high taxes, and to spend only responsibly. You might want to watch a short history lesson regarding politics:

    Check out the film, God Bless America (2011). The left enjoys laughing at the prospect of violence toward those they perceive as the impediments to their view of how things should be. But films like God Bless America couldn’t possibly influence anybody to do violence. No, how could it when we know it is the Tea Party that does that…

Of course everyone knows that the Tea Party is a criminal organization filled with racist types and gun violence. After all, Dear Leader said so repeatedly. Of course his lips were moving, so he was probably lying, but he did say so!

      TIME, Actually, we’ve had a rather decent summer weather wise. I was just telling a friend last night down in Tampa that we’ve been having light rains usually in the morning and evening that have kept it much cooler for this time of the year. While the southern portion of the state is having a draught, there is no such thing here.
      I do know what you mean about the usual heat and humidity here though. I used to live in Tampa back in the ’70s and there is a considerable difference.

It was Ybor City you were talking about and some old places in the area. I spent time at Ft. Bliss back in the day going throught the 1SG Course, then again for the SMA. And when with Recruiting Command previously as a Nurse Recruiter, had taken a bunch of “Down Range Possibilities” to San Antonio for a couple of tours. Recruiting Command had the big bucks for these Recruitment tours…

      I kind of liked the weather there myself.

      TIME, Lived in Tampa prior to joining the Army. First duty station was Ft Bragg, after almost four years there I had the pleasantry of being permanent party in Graf, Hohenfels, and Wildflecken, followed by Ft Drum shortly after they had changed from Camp Drum. When I was there, the installation had four permanent buildings, and one was the PX. Every other structure on the post had their building numbers start with “T” for temporary. Civility finally arrived after I was back in Germany. I did enjoy Upstate, NY though. Plenty of rural areas, and the people were as friendly as here. But here, we don’t have to shovel snow eight months out of the year. Actually no shovelling snow at all.
      Oh yeah, a couple of us were chatting about Ybor City. Loved the Columbia Restaurant there along with The Silver Ring back then. But, I now understand that the Ring has branched out and changed a lot. I could deal with a good Cuban sandwich about now, and toss in some real black beans on yellow rice with iced onions. Shoot, a Lums hotdog and a schooner of cold beer would be nice too.

      RJJ. That’s right, that’s right… I remember now. We were talking about Reforgers (Graf, Wild-Chicken and Hoenfels when I was TDY and you were Perm Party), plus I was with the 8th ID in Baumholder for a stretch… and you at Fort Drum (which I spent time at when it was still Camp Drum… Empire Glacier training exercises… twice). It’s all coming back, lol.

      Being from “upstate” NY… I understand the snow believe you me and saw first hand Watertown (and surrounding areas) and THAT ridiculous snowfall. Ft Devens in Mass, was another snow-bound area for a better part of the year which I don’t miss at all.

      I couldn’t have imagined being perm party in Graf, Ho or Chicken… NO thank you! You have my gratitude and respect.

      TIME, You may have mentioned it, but I can’t recall. I was with 3rd Bde 8th ID when it was retired and feflagged as 1st AD. Eventually I ended up in Bad Kreuznach. That was my final tour in Germany. Oddly, on my second we trained at Baumholder, and I ran the .45 range for each of our BN’s 6 companies. I remember being stuck in Baumholder for almost seven weeks with only military vehicles. Other than a nearby German canteen in one of the training camps, the closest thing that I can recall as entertainment was a snack bar with a jukebox next door to a laundromat. We go over to K Town once in a while.

      I was lucky with my tour at Baumholder (other than another tour out of my MOS which suk’d). I got to Germany with basic orders assigning me to the 8th ID in BK (most likely a Combat Engineer Unit), but got in country and the next thing I knew I was being reassigned to the NCO Academy (PLDC/SLC) in Baumholder even before I caught my breath during reception at the Air Base.

      Headed to “The Rock”..got throught the Instructor selection process… instructed for a few months, then was given the Senior Instructor billet which wound up being a cake job as I look back (not quite REMF… but close, lol).

      Most of the Instructors at that time were former Drills like myself, so I’m assuming that may have come into play with that particular assignment at the Academy. Never did get a straight answer though.

    In my town, if someone walked up to a police officer and said the things this “clown” said, the cops would beat him down, cuff him, and haul him to jail.
