It’s happened before, it’s happening now, and it will surely happen in the future should the anarchists be foolish enough to ever hook up with the communists again.

For the complete report, with more insanity that you can even digest in one sitting, see Occupy Los Angeles, fellow photojournalist Ringo’s full photo essay Infighting, Pot Smoke & Chemtrails – One Hundred Minutes at Occupy L.A.
