Maxine Waters on Deaths and Crimes at Occupy Protests: ‘That’s Life and It Happens’

The Blaze

For Congresswoman Maxine Waters, the string of deaths and crimes that have occurred across the Occupy movement nationwide is nothing more than “life” and “it happens.” She also said the incidents are merely a “distraction” from the Occupiers’ ultimate goal.

Speaking to CNSNews on Wednesday, Waters said:

 

“Let me just say this: Anytime you have a gathering, homeless people are going to show up,” said Waters. “They will find some comfort in having some other people out on the streets with them. They’re looking for food. Often times, the criminal element will invade. That’s life and it happens, whether it’s with protesters or other efforts that go on in this country.

 

“So I’m not deterred in my support for them because of these negative kinds of things,” said Waters. “I just want them to work at doing the best job that they can do to bring attention to this economic crisis and the unfairness of the system at this time.”

 

CNS points out that Waters, while a staunch supporter of the Occupy movement, has been highly critical of the Tea Party. To note, neither deaths nor the types of crimes committed at Occupy protests have occurred at any Tea Party gathering.

Wait! Isn't this the same woman that said, "The Tea Party can go to hell?" You know the TP with all of their hate speech, racism and anger. But the deaths, murder, rapes and crime are just a part of life with the occupiers. The diabolical actions that we see occurring within the occupy compound is exactly what these people consider normal. It's shocking but true! ~ C4F
