Sweet!

I suppose the "Silly" tag is off occupying somewhere...which fits

Had this been Tea Party folks, they would have refused that couple because as Libertarians, they would only care for themselves and no one else.

Who would want a bunch of smelly hippies in their wedding photos?


Oh this is Ohio? Nevermind.

That Fark headline would have made a (more) informative article.

PsiChi: Sweet!

This. I imagine that years down the road, when the reality of being married kicks in, they'll at least get to enjoy their unique wedding pics.

Oh look, it's the Fark 'Marriage sucks' brigade.

Why does fark hate the he-man hippie haters.

The pics would have been nice as well.

Another story about pictures that doesn't include any of the pictures. Goddanitsomuch!

1/10

That must have been awkward when the Justice of the Peace asked if anyone objects to the union of these two people.

No lie, I went to a wedding right after Sept 11 in Washington, DC and the bridal party wanted pictures in Lafayette Park, which is right across from the front of the White House. Since the Afghanistan bombing campaign had just started, the park was full of protesters who were sitting in a "peace circle" right where you would stand to take a picture of the White House. They refused to move, so thanks to a really good photographer they shot a series of pictures with the protesters cropped out (they were all sitting on the ground, it wasn't difficult).

I remember thinking at the time "they could just move for ten minutes and then take pictures with the wedding party and everybody would be happy". Kudos to these guys for being nice.

A communist wedding?

No, just a regular wedding.

Communist photos?

Why do you always do that!?

I might have missed it, since it was a short article, but I didn't see anything in there about the protestors even being aware of the wedding/wedding photos/anything else.

Is there some sort of evil-universe fox news that you're getting this info from?

"A bride and groom reached out Occupy Cincinnati protesters to be part of their wedding day."

did they accidentally the protesters?

SUBBY FAIL! He either didn't read the article carefully, or linked to the wrong article.

The article subby linked to mentions NOTHING about the protestors being willing to clear the park for the couple.

According to the article the couple knew the park was occupied with protestors, who they support, and they thought it was be great to take pictures with them.

Uhh, I think you have a warped view of Libertarianism.

They'll laugh about this years from now when they're locked up in Guantanamo.

No, seems pretty accurate to me.

Ivan Yankinov: can someone do me a favor and copy pasta the whole article for me. im on my phone and everytime i click the link for the whole article it just refreshes the page

CINCINNATI --A bride and groom reached out Occupy Cincinnati protesters to be part of their wedding day. Before her wedding, bride-to-be Caroline Hyatt had planned to attend the protest, but was too busy planning for the wedding. She says the couple had already planned to go to occupied Piatt (PY'-uht) Park for pictures and they thought it would be great to make the protesters, whom they support, part of their important day. "We wanted them to be a part of our photos, and they were warmly accommodating," said groom Nathan C. Lee. The protesters have been camping in the park for just more than a week in protest of what they say is too much corporate influence in American government. They say they have no intention of leaving any time soon.

Farking unions. Always getting into everything. I say they've outlived their usefulness.

Don't knock it. That union got that guy Friday night steak and blow jobs and all he had to give up in exchange was that he can no longer leave his underwear on the floor...

Good on Occupy Cinci for the high-road move, and cooler still for the wedding party bringin' 'em in for some pictures.

And the doubters say Ohio doesn't need a tag.

Occupy Skyway!

Read TFA and didn't notice anything about the protestors clearing the park.

/Subby fail, but nice use of fiction for propaganda

Latinwolf: Had this been Tea Party folks, they would have refused that couple because as Libertarians, they would only care for themselves and no one else.

Ha. Wow, ok.

You may need a new hobby because turning unrelated stories in to a criticism of the teaparty is coming off as a bit creepy.

I mean your post makes as much sense as saying "yeah if this were a union protest they would have broken these 'scabs' knees then taken a mandated 30 minute smoke break".

*whistles Solidarity Forever*

"The protesters and their lawyers say they have a good relationship with police, and some even praised them Monday after filing the lawsuit. They also say they've cooperated as much as possible with police and even cleared out for a few hours last weekend so a couple could use the park for a wedding service."

"After hearing reports that a Cincinnati couple was having their wedding photos taken in an occupied park, protesters moved their demonstration - only to have the bride and groom seek them out for pictures. "

In Seattle, these douchebags would have ruined the wedding.

Marie Antoinette would have let them eat the cake. At least, that's what somebody said she said.

The article I read yesterday says that the protesters noticed that someone had reserved the park for a wedding. They cleaned the park up, removed all their stuff and relocated to another park. The couple was disappointed as they wanted to be there with the protesters and tracked them down. They were happy for the protest and wanted it to be a part of their wedding photos. Article even had pics of the couple with the protesters and the park in question.

I was a bit surprised they did the right thing, not because of being protesters, but of human nature.

I honestly did not expect this, being from Cinci....

I was at a wedding this past weekend outside this park in Cincinnati, so I'm getting a kick out of this thread

/Different bride and groom tho
//This one was none too pleased with the location of the protests
