Unless you’re comic book guy, you might not know who Frank Miller is, or why anyone cares that he thinks that America has been “too polite” to the Occupy Wall Street protesters.

Miller is a comic book artist, and a well-known and until recently, fairly well-regarded one. Responsible for Ronin, The Dark Knight Returns, Sin City and 300, it seems odd that a comic book legend such as Miller would strike out at basement dwellers, but he has, and loudly.

Miller seems to have conflated the Occupy Wall Street movement and related protests breaking out around the United States and globally with some kind of sympathy for… Muslims? Or terrorists? It’s difficult to tell from his whargarrbl-filled rant against the demonstrators, but this dude is mad about something. He starts off saying that the movement presents a danger to America, though he fails to express how:

The “Occupy” movement, whether displaying itself on Wall Street or in the streets of Oakland (which has, with unspeakable cowardice, embraced it) is anything but an exercise of our blessed First Amendment. “Occupy” is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America.

Miller continued, exhorting “pond scum” protesters to “wake up” and “stop getting in the way of working people and find jobs for themselves” in his blog post:

Maybe, between bouts of self-pity and all the other tasty tidbits of narcissism you’ve been served up in your sheltered, comfy little worlds, you’ve heard terms like al-Qaeda and Islamicism… In the name of decency, go home to your parents, you losers. Go back to your mommas’ basements and play with your Lords Of Warcraft.

Frank Miller’s anticipated followup to 300, The Spirit, is due our Christmas Day and there’s a new 30 second trailer.

The official spiel: “Down these mean streets a man must come. A hero born, murdered, and born again. When a Rookie cop named Denny Colt returns from the beyond as The Spirit, a hero whose mission is to fight against the bad forces from the shadows of Central City. The Octopus who kills anyone unfortunate enough to see his face who has other plans. He’s going to wipe out the entire city. The Spirit tracks this cold hearted killer from the city’s rundown warehouses, to the damp catacombs, to the windswept waterfront all the while facing a bevy of beautiful women who either want to seduce, love or kill the masked crusader. ”

Written and directed by Miller and adapted from Will Eisner’s comic book series, The Spirit stars Gabriel Macht, Samuel L. Jackson, Sarah Paulson, Eva Mendes, Dan Lauria, Paz Vega, Jaime King, Scarlett Johansson, Louis Lombardi and Stana Katic.
