Forum Post: Rat infestation at Zuccotti Park

My buddy Kwame works for NYC sanitation. Rats have moved into Zuccotti Park and he says it will get worse with the cold weather. They'll eat anything and spread disease. Time to pack it in. You may beat the banksters but not the rats.

Nice try buddy, you can't dissuade us with such scare tactics. The rat problem can easily be resolved. Place a bounty on the rats. Watch the rat problem mysteriously disappear.

So use drums to make rat traps and every time you catch one, call animal control to come and remove it humanely... Nothing cleans up a city like sending rats to the gas chamber.

I have cats on my place to take care of the rats but if I happen to catch one out in the open I pop it with a .22 or a air rifle (NOT the kind you find at Walmart). It's actually fun, but we rarely see them unless it starts getting cold and they look for a warm place to crash.

It's a bunch of propaganda, you are a liar sir. Shame, you sell out your countryman, for what?

I have a buddy too. He tells me that you're a liar.

Dislodge him from your ass. Then we can talk.

Rats are everywhere in NYC. You can see them scurrying in the subways very often. They are in the fanciest neighborhoods like Chelsea, and of course in the Board rooms of the banks, in the latter case they are usually between 5 or 6 feet tall, and usually with a dark coat on.

Looks like a few of them post here. Like you for example.

Rats have to eat too, they have rights just like people.

In some countries, they eat them.

The police have been telling them to head down to the park too.

First it was STDs. Then lice, now rats. Ew.
