Dear Occupests: Guy Fawkes would’ve run you through with his sword

June 9, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Michael Coren on the new ban on mask-wearing during demos:

Fourth, those Guy Fawkes masks are meant to resemble one Guido Fawkes, an English Roman Catholic who received his military training in Spain, and who tried to blow up the British Parliament.

Beyond the royal family, politicians and establishment, many ordinary people would have been slaughtered. Fawkes was a conservative Catholic, and would have run lefty twits through with his rapier after telling them what morons they were.

So, it’s time to grow up and put away the toys, baby comrades. You can dress up as Lenin, Kropotkin and even a naughty schoolboy and a scolding nanny in high heels if that’s your thing. I couldn’t care less, but keep it at home and off the street.
