Police Raid OWS in the night. DU goes nuts!
« on: November 15, 2011, 04:44:57 AM »
Midnight. The police surrounded the Zucotti park. Eviction notices had been served earlier. The park is gonna get cleaned. The protesters refused and pepper spray and nightsticks were used. many arrests.

The protesters are OUT of the park right now and everything (including computers, cell phones and communications gear) have been loaded into trash compacter garbage trucks, destroyed and hauled away! And the cash donations may have been tossed in the trash too.

The protesters have regrouped in a near by park and are vowing to shut down Broadway during rush hour in retaliation. Micheal Moore seems to be leading the OWS street via twitter...they have a leader.

Bloomberg, ever the wimp, says the evacuation is temporary, but tents will no longer be allowed.

People this is just a sampling of the massive midnight outrage at DU. Before the livestream went down the mods there banned me for saying things like, "Come on folks, its not so bad. at least you can get a shower in jail. and they have BATHROOMS! whats not to love?"

--the ban must have been local, cause I've been able to troll the rest of the Occupy livestreams. Trolls are 50% fo the comments that I can see.

All that's left of the NY wall street camp. Get this, a FLEET of dump trucks hauled the trash/camp away!




Oh and I don't know if I mentioned it or not. Hippies did get nightsticked. So did a scum sucking city councilman!

Police Order Protesters to Vacate 'Occupy Wall Street' Camp at Zuccotti Park
Quote
NEW YORK –  Police arrested 70 protesters at New York's Zuccotti Park early Tuesday, including some who chained themselves together, while clearing the park so that sanitation crews could clean it.

The officers arrived just after midnight and handed out letters to protesters ordering them to temporarily evacuate the park. Campers were told to remove their tents and all their belongings, the New York Post reported.

The eviction letters declared, "The city has determined that the continued occupation of Zuccotti Park poses an increasing health and fire safety hazard.

"We also require that you immediately leave the park on a temporary basis so it can be cleared and restored for its intended use.

"You will be allowed to return to the park in several hours, when this work is complete. If you decide to return, you will not be permitted to bring tents, sleeping bags, tarps and similar materials with you."

this is the only livestream working in NYC.

The hippies have relocated in Foley park. They have just voted to go to sleep. I guess the blocking Broadway during rush hour is not going on for the moment.

Watched about a minute of the livestream.  Couldn't stand the stupid any longer than that.

What a bunch of pathetic, moronic, shiftless, helpless, hopeless, dirty, brainless LOSERS!  One guy bitching and whining about his tent:  "That was my home, man!"  I guess you're "homeless" now, asshole!

Relocate the bunch of them to the middle of a Panamanian jungle, along with any college profs that had anything to do with their "education".

BWA HA HA HA HA! Police are starting to line Foley park where the protesters are "sleeping."

City parks now have a curfew of 10PM. Everyone out at that point.

They had an argument with a lawyer over the right to occupy private property. The lawyer spoke about law, the protestor spoke only to emotion.

No one is sleeping they are chanting again.

What!!??? no Tazers? The police are letting the protesters off with just a slap on the wrist and a smack upside the head. We are a soft society.

The city handed out eviction notices and these bozos still left all their stuff behind to be crushed, thrown out, or confiscated? 

Yeah, these are the smart ones we should be afraid of.

Occupiers Were Stockpiling Weapons in Zuccotti Park
Quote
Deputy Mayor Cas Holloway filed a motion on behalf of the city today opposing a court order requiring the NYPD to allow Occupy Wall Street demonstrators back into Zuccotti Park. In filing the motion, Holloway asserted that "people who have a known history of violent interaction with the police” have been gathering in the park, and “makeshift items” that he said could be used as weapons, "such as cardboard tubes with metal pipes inside, had been observed among the occupiers' possessions." He also noted that after the October 1st Brooklyn Bridge march, "knives, mace and hypodermic needles were observed discarded on the roadway."

The live feed is down to ONE battery. They will be up for 3 more hours. Ha!

The judge ruled against OWS. They can occupy the park around the clock, but NO tents/tarps/sleeping bags/stoves, fuel of any sort....in other words, no camping.

4. I hope they appeal. But they don't need tents   
   
or sleeping bags to stay there. They can do what the Egyptians did, occupy in shifts. No need to sleep there, probably better to be awake anyhow and to get some sleep during the day.

Meantime they should appeal. And as the NYT said today, all they've done is 'revive the movement' and strengthen it.

Delusional post of the day, both the poster and the NYT:

BTW, the weather is unseasonably warm, when the cold weather moves in they'll scatter like roaches.

Lord Rove has driven the weather machine towards New York City.

Tonight's forecast, 60 percent chance of showers, low 54.

Tomorrow, RAIN.  High of 58.

Tomorrow night, MORE RAIN.  Low of 45.

Looking at the extended forecast, nothing terribly distressing--a few rain showers here and there, no temperatures below the upper 30's at night.  Bummer.  I was hoping for another Snowtober, this time followed up by a nice cold snap.
