They are sweeping and scrubbing sidewalks with soap and water...polishing granite....picking up trash...they're even weeding the ground cover...the park is being respected by it's occupants.

sounds like you are some bad trip dude

It doesn't matter what they do.

They have to be gone tomorrow at 7 AM.

That is firm or there will be trouble.

I have been informed that protester blood is easily cleaned with a power washing.

I know for a fact they are not planning on leaving...they won't be violent but it might persuade the cops to get violent. They are willing to take that risk...they will lock armsin a ring with their mops and brooms and peacefully resist eviction

[-] 0 points by OccupyDC (153) 13 years ago

They can lock arms all they want. The police will physically lift them and remove them from the park one by one.

You think the NYPD has never dealt with protesters locking arms and refusing to move? The police always remove them.

The adrenaline levels in the police will be high. All it will take is one or two asshole protesters to get violent, and the police will retaliate against EVERYONE in that park. It will not be pretty.

the importance is the message it sends to the rest of the nation and the world. This is a looong overdue movement for change we can believe in.

[-] 0 points by OccupyDC (153) 13 years ago

It is also long overdue for that park to be cleaned and the protesters to leave and take all the junk with them.

[-] 2 points by RationalReaper (188) 13 years ago

what do you care DC ? You're just voicing contempt...obviously your moniker does not reflect the real you.

[-] 0 points by OccupyDC (153) 13 years ago

My user name reflects what I have been saying since day one regarding this protest movement.

It belongs in Washington D.C. They should be protesting Congress. They should be protesting the White House.

This whole protesting against Wall Street is a fraud and a ruse. A ruse to deflect attention away from where the real problems lie.... the federal government and this administration.

[-] 1 points by mbnfromtheog (70) 13 years ago

[-] 1 points by RationalReaper (188) 13 years ago

[-] 1 points by mbnfromtheog (70) 13 years ago

[-] 1 points by RationalReaper (188) 13 years ago
