| 2005-04-08 |
| Hat tip: LGF. EFL'd to preserve reader sanity. The Stop CAT Coalition is issuing a call for all Caterpillar equipment is being used by the Israeli Defense Forces to destroy roads, orchards, greenhouses, agricultural land and the homes of over 50,000 Palestinians. Dozens have died . . . . Rachel He seems to think that was a bad thing. For more information, contact: info@stopcat.org or 773-489-3505 Visit: www.catdestroyshomes.org Hopefully, someone like Protest Warrior will show up and counter-demonstrate. |

| #21 Mike - anything by Phil Dirt and the Dozers would be appropriate too. |

| #19 Here's a fun thought: get a D-9 and put it on a lowboy, then cruise back and forth on South LaSalle Street like you're looking for a job site to deliver it to. |

| #15 I hope some knuckle dragging goons show up and beat the piss out of these stupid f***tards. These people need to be put into their place. That place is down with pond scum. Typical jew hating leftists. Unfit to benefit from the bounties of western civilization. |

| #14 The Stop CAT Coalition is issuing a call for all Palestine solidarity organizations and activists.. Advice: Accuracy can be maintained without the use of the indicated excessive verbiage above by using "Jew-haters" instead. |

| #13 IIUC Cat is unionized, UAW. UAW afaik is having nothing to do with this moonbattery. As a liberal, I stand with unionized American workers, proudly making a quality product, and selling it abroad to our democratic ally (an ally which has national health care, by the way) - union made, American made, right on! |

| #12 You just can't get a decent latte down there, Bob. There are limits to what these committed activists are willing to suffer... |

| #11 Interesting that these "committed activists" can't be bothered to make the drive down to Peoria to protest in front of Caterpillar itself. |

| #10 Moonbats protesting at a CAT plant for this crap would be a sight to behold Frank G. The CAT boys are a proud and tough crowd who are not apt to suffer fools screwing with their time or mealticket needlessly. |

| #9 Caterpillars don't kill people; people kill people. A handy paradigm. |

| #8 these pussies might impress me if they went to a Cat factory to protest...a bank? Hope the Chicago blues show no restraint, in fact, I hope the tellers, accountants and old security guard guys all come out to kick some moonbat ass |

| #7 I hope Caterpillar keeps ignoring these fools. They're definitely not the market for Cat's equipment, so they've got nothing to lose by doing so. |

| #6 We'll see how this turns out. My office is only a couple of blocks away from the site. Most protests in Chicago are pretty boring (a few marchers with megaphones and signs) - nobody wants to get a "tune up" from the Chicago cops. |

| #5 Ah, beautiful .com. "Sheeple" mayhaps they be but still idiotic by any other name. Classic nutters all. While they are wound up and at it, they would do well to protest the parents' failure to teach their children not to screw around with heavy equipment unless you wish to be maimed or killed. Shaheed by a bulldozer? Does that count? Can I get a fatwa somebody! |

| #4 She stood in front of a moving bulldozer. And it's the bulldozer's fault she died? |

| #3 Cold, .com, but funny. I've never been able to understand how people like these have been able to survive with such narrow tunnel vision, or how they can have such narrow vision. |

| #2 *snicker* They've almost managed to make me feel sorry for a bank, lol! That takes some doin'. All of their "actions" amount to poofery and puffery - much like bravely farting upwind. Foolishly, I have always associated "action" with "substantance". Silly me. I also hope someone will take pix, in case they get really serious and make some paper mache Giants Puppets and Tanks or, better yet, Cat D-9s - with skeery skulls and crossbones, of course, to show how evil construction equipment really is. The sheeple ought to know the truth. Nothing says serious like paper mache. Upon reflection, methinks they should be holding this at the nearest House of Pancakes. |
