    that the entire world does not revolve around your small penis and need to compensate for it.

    Tea Party activists have all had peaceful, clean protests.

    Occupiers like yourself have however smashed windows, set fire to things and attacked police. They've also attacked a Democratic party HQ in a false flag attack.

    So if we had to choose a domestic source for the attack, it would very likely be some group you admire responsible. In fact it could very well be someone like yourself trying to set up the Tea Party... with any luck you posted from a traceable IP because it's very likely whoever did this would be online monitoring posts about it, as you are.
