Left-wing activist throws pie in Milton Friedman’s face

The freer the market, the bigger the pie

The incident occurred in October 1998 at a San Francisco conference titled “School Choice and Corporate America.” Friedman reportedly was unfazed and said, “Well, these things happen sometimes.”

The pie-thrower, Al Decker, was charged with misdemeanor battery but quickly released. Decker was part of the Biotic Baking Brigade, a left-wing activist group known for pieing public figures.

The perpetrator showed no remorse in his statement after the incident: “We hold Milton Friedman responsible for crimes against the people by organizing this appalling conference, which calls for the privatization of public education.” “Friedman serves as the world’s pre-eminent neoliberal economist, supporting globalization and ‘free trade’ policies which have brought the world poverty, misery, starvation, and ecological devastation. The global market has brought the globe to the brink of economic collapse.” “As a young American, what can I look forward to under neoliberal economics besides a depressing McWorld?This cutthroat economic system has devastating impacts globally as well as in my own backyard.” “I have witnessed the abuse of my fellow activists as they have been arrested, jailed, beaten, pepper-sprayed and recently killed for trying to defend the Headwaters Forest from fascist economics.”

you forgot to atached the gigachad image

Al Decker is a hero

We should go back to pies for those we are at odds with irreconcilably.

Another left-winger showing what he has instead of brains.

Rare lefty W

Friedman occupies a strange place in political discourse. His empirical advocacy for capitalism makes him a revered figure by the contemporary right, despite the fact that the right hates the globalist principles Friedman famously argued for.

It seems lefties never tolerate what they don't want to hear.

Socialism is false dogma, relies on indoctrination of the young and naive. It cannot withstand reasoned debate. That's why socialism 'argues' with violence.

dude got a free lunch.

I hope the police didn't get involved that would be excessive amount of statism which we don't want

It's an honor when your opponents have no argument, and they have to resort to being a clown. Kudos, Professor.

The party of tolerance wasn’t so tolerant then either.

This needs looney tunes sound effects and circus music.

I hope Friedman paid for that pie because there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

Why on earth are these vile people so violent?

"Funny"

Jesus Christ! He looks tiny. @grok how tall was Milton Friedman

"Think of all the hard work that was put into making that pie. Someone had to create the crust. Someone had to pick the apples. Still Someone else had to make the whipping cream. Another had to milk the cow. It takes a truck drivers to deliver these materials..."

Rest in peace, Dr. Friedman. Thank you for the valuable knowledge you shared with all of us. Those who understood your reasoning, have been doing much better.

Apples grown in Australia, pie made in Germany and shipped of to the usa to be bought and thrown into Milton's face The free market is indeed beutiful

deserved ngl.

Looks like a free lunch!
