We all saw this coming. Several of us predicted it here.

Next is cholera/dysentery.

@ hoodaticus…

This is undoubtedly happening in more than just Portland; probably in all the OWS Riot encampments.

Lice are the human race’s most common parasite, and quickly infest any large group of unhygienic people.

They’re probably also not telling anyone about the bedbugs, which have become epidemic in NYC. Believing that these tent sites are immune is delusional.

All parasites also carry infectious diseases.

We’re not being told the truth about what’s going on in these filthy environments. They are a health hazard, but that information is being hidden.

I hope nobody is surprised that filthy people end up with diseases of filth.

I bet they will blame it on a tall, thin and gaunt man with a black top hat, suit, and cape. He was probably last seen skulking away from the site twirling his handlebar mustache and saying “Nyahahaha”…

@sniffy

I’m with you – napalm the park. Lice are just too disgusting.

@ Sniffy Pop Tuna…

If your kid gets lice, you will receive a visit from the Health Department.

Once these tent sites are infested, there is no way to eradicate the parasites other than tear down the huts and burn eveyrthing.
You can’t just wash away lice from your clothing or sleeping bags.

Hahahahahaha

@ hoodaticus…

As we all predicted a few weeks ago, disease and parasites will eventually takeover. It was just a matter of time.

The possibilites of epidemics and the spread of “who knows what” scuzz, are more than enough reasons for the Health Departments to shut them down.

@ hoodaticus and Rufus

Where is the CDC? Why are they not addressing these health concerns?

@ Sniffy…

Now that this has hit the news, you can be sure that other cities will admit they also have a problem.
They’ve all been letting the homeless camp out with them, and not to be prejudiced against the homeless, but they have lice, and bugs, and who knows what else?

The local City Health Departments are the first line of defense, unfortunately, it’s already too late. By the time you notice that you have lice, it’s beyond simple cures.

Good! Welcome to PIGSVILLE morons! What, did they really think that living like pigs (no offense to pigs) wouldn’t have consequences? Heh….Now let’s see them go to the capitalist stores to buy the capitalist remedies that the capitalists make. Heh…I love a good laugh on a Sunday afternoon.

WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!… COOTIES,COOTIES,COOTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Something like the above, perhaps?

See God DOES have a sense of humor, Thanks God!

How Biblical!

Some of God’s littlest creatures are able to take down Barry’s Jihad Squad.

This really will be the end of them; once these tent sites are infested, there is no way to clean them up short of incinerating all of their belongings.

“Go to the store and buy it for yourself”

Lol how ironic.

Parasites for the Parasites.

How fitting.

@Hidajunshin

I’m sorry but that is NOT true, Gasoline.

Its gasoline and matches, that works correctly.

How about crabs? Anybody got crabs? How about ringworm? Where is Mooshelle? Why this is a great new mission for her, teaching these fithly scum to bathe.

@ Elmer Fudd, Hidjunshin…

You both forgot the icepick.

Shave half your body, light the other half on fire with gasoline and stab the lice with the icepick as they run from the fire.

The sad part is that the OWS crowd along with the media and the politicians, are so desperate to keep the what is really happening at OWS quiet, that they are damaging themselves. Members are being raped, STDs are infecting them, lice are spreading around, filth is everywhere, infighting is terrible, drug use is rampant…
They are going to implode. This has gone on less than two months and it is a rolling disaster.

It’s the homeless people’s fault? “Hopefully ‘they’ will fix it”? Lice lives in clothing, until they all leave or get sprayed down they won’t be able to contain it.
Next it will be the colds/flu going around. That will be pretty.

It’s infuriating the number of people in the world that have had to live like this through no fault of their own, and these assholes choose to live like this to make a point that they don’t even know what it is.

Axel: “It’s the homeless people’s fault?”

Where is the CDC? They need the Federal Government to help them.

Sniffy, I vote for your napalm suggestion.

@ Hickster

I’m just surprised that they are looking down on, and dismissing, people who are obviously much worse off than themselves.

ONLY THEY have a logical high ground? They complain that the people above them are “evil bankers”, and that the people below them are “idiot tramps”.

Body lice carry and transmit Trench fever.
http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/230294-overview

Typical periodic cycles of fever, chills, and sweats occurred at 5-day intervals, resulting in prolonged disability that lasted 3 months or longer.

In addition, where ever there are infestations of body lice, you can almost certainly find epidemic spread of fleas.

If they knew what they’re asking for. Idiots.

How many honorable Americans have fought and died for this country so that we could be free of exactly what they’re begging for. It’s an insult to everyone that’s ever served and continues to serve.

Mother Nature culls the herd.

Thank you everyone for the laughs. I needed a good one! Wow…
I don’t think Lenin ever used lice to bring about his great revolution.

It interesting what happens when you shun the trapping of modern civilized society.

Communal living sucks, doesn’t it, kiddies?

People are supposed to share everything equally, but it never quite works out the way that they expect. People eventually realize that their problems are not so alike after a while…….they begin to understand that their individual problems cannot be solved with a ‘one size fit’s all’ solution. Then they turn on each other.

Fortunately, Western culture already has an arrangement where people can merge their finances together. It’s an arrangement filled with all the ‘peace and love’ the members can create. It’s called ‘Marriage’.

Young adults are often told when they’re starting out in life that; “Every household should be run like a business, because that’s what it is.” Socialism is a hostile takeover and merger of every ‘Home Business’ in a community. It’s a shotgun wedding of everyone, to everyone else. It forces people to assume responsibility for people they would never agree to marry, and who they might not even want to live next to.

Communalism is Communism. I hope you enjoy your lice! (compliments of the collective)
.

Lice worthy louses may they enjoy there new “Occupiers”. Tee-Hee There are sucking lice, , and biting lice ‘

i got itchy just watching that

I love the smell of DDT in the morning. It smells like… lice.

haha!

This headline should read that head and body lice, much to their dismay, have been discovered to be infected by occupiers.

This is disgusting. With all the raping, public masterbation and sex going on as well, I’m sure “crabs” are afflicting them in large numbers as well. What utterly revolting imbeciles.

I also noticed what looked, to me, like younger kids at the Medical tent. And here they were, amidst the licefest, with the two guys talking and throwing around the “F” word within hearing distance.

These filthy SOB’s and their living conditions remind me of the footage of WW2 german concentration camps. The OWSer’s camps make Aushwitz look like the Hilton.

Don’t blame it just on the fact that a large number of people are living in close quarters. Blame it on the people themselves.

What I mean is that anybody who served in the armed forces lived in barracks full of people yet they lived cleanly. These squatters are low class slobs. This lice outbreak is to be expected.

Axel: good point about the coming cold and flu season. Those fools are really going to suffer and spread their filth to innocent citizens trying to go to work, home, and shopping.
