Contrary to Occupy propaganda, the protesters do not represent 99% of the population, since 99% of the population is comprised of people who work for a living, don’t routinely take or overdose on drugs, don’t physically threaten anyone and, since they are busy earning a living to support themselves and their families, don’t have the time for extended self-indulgent posturing in a tent.

Tempers flared at the Occupy Vancouver encampment Thursday morning as one person was taken to hospital suffering from a drug overdose.

The unconscious victim was first given medical aid by paramedics with Occupy Vancouver, said Vancouver Fire Chief John McKearney.

Some media covering the overdose were subjected to threats by those living in the tents on the lawns outside Vancouver Art Gallery.

CKNW reporter Charmaine de Silva said she was “physically threatened” while covering the breaking story.
