A caravan of protesters — some wielding plastic pitchforks — descended on the Hamptons Wednesday to blast the rich and decry the nation’s rising income inequality.
More than 100 drivers and about 200 marchers paid a visit to the homes of some of the world’s wealthiest people, including ex-New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg.
“Tax the rich, not the poor!” the protesters chanted outside Bloomberg’s $20 million Southhampton mansion, with some calling the failed presidential candidate a “looter.”
Protesters, several of whom came in from the Big Apple, demanded that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo raise taxes on the state’s 118 billionaires to make up for a steep revenue shortfall amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The group is taking issue with Cuomo’s pitch to cut 20 percent in state funding from schools, hospitals and housing agencies. They noted that while the virus outbreak has deeply impacted low-income people and communities of color, the wealth of US billionaires has surged.

BLM is like the white walkers. Created as a weapon and becoming uncontrolled.

Shoot the first 8-10 of them, and the rest will scatter.

I love watching the poor section of democrats go after the upper class elitist democrats. One of the few things I love about this culture war.

Great idea. It's not like those individuals would immediately move their money and taxable assets to another state or foreign jurisdiction. "Hey, come to New York and thrive with the opportunities of this unique city and state! Unless something happens and the state needs money because of its bad policies, then you have to pay up."
I understand that foresight is not a progressive virtue, but god damn.

You think a private security force is going to shoot some black folks with plastic pitch forks?
Those rich white folk would throw them to the wolves with the quickness...

It's been a progressive movement since day 2.
Remember how much coverage there was about the Tea Party and how the media tried to paint them as violent? Leftists have literally burned blocks of cities but haven't been demonized like the Tea Party.
The Dems and MSM are way better at the propaganda game.
