New Tone: #OccupyBoston Protesters Spit On Coast Guard Member

I started to swing by the Greenway on my walk to work from the train station this morning and throw a few bars of Irish Spring at these maggots, but they appear happy in their filth.

BOSTON (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - The Coast Guard in Boston confirmed that a woman in uniform was harassed and spat upon near Occupy Boston protesters.

The woman was walking to the train and said protesters spit on her twice, called her foul names and even threw a water bottle at her.

Classy.

But of course, the organizers of this rabble blame it on people who aren't really part of the group. Because, you know, Coasties get spit on all the time around here or something.

Devon Pendleton, a spokesman for Occupy Boston, doesn't believe that those male protestors are actually part of the movement. However, Pendleton wants to be clear, that if protestors are responsible for doing something so disrespectful, he'd like to apologize on behalf of Occupy Boston.

Remember when the press was interested in getting details right and didn't blame tea partiers for every conceivable bad act that occurred within a 50-mile radius of a tea party rally? Yeah, me neither.

Sorry, Occupy Boston - you own this.
