Remember capitalism? Glad we got rid of that.

I saw 20 protestors last night marching.
Very sad.

I didn't see many protestors, but saw probably 100+ police standing in front of my building, which is down by the statue of the charging bull. Glad they're keeping that statue safe.

Occupy finally leaves family's house
http://www.nypost.com/p/news/loc…Don’t let the door hit you in the collective butt on the way out.
Occupy Wall Street squatters have finally begun moving out of an East New York home after their bungled takeover of the vacant property became a major embarrassment for the movement.
“I told them that if I see anybody there, I’m going to call the cops,” said the home’s rightful owner, Wise Ahadzi, 27, a struggling single father of two.

Mayor Jean Quan personally inspected damage caused by dozens of people who broke into City Hall. She said she wants a court order to keep Occupy protesters who have been arrested several times out of Oakland, which has been hit repeatedly by demonstrations that have cost the financially troubled city about $5 million.

Stupid, stupid tactics.
It wouldn't take much to really piss off a thousand, five thousand, ten thousand people enough for them to turn up armed and angry, then there aint no policing that, military involvement or otherwise. That's societal breakdown there on a scale that'll make the LA riots look like a scrap at a kids party. That's what everyone forgets about the US - there's fucking millions of people here and they have 100s of millions of guns. They're pretty easy to control with conventional media, and it goes a long way to overly project the illusion of state power with incessant 24/7 cop shows on tv for the whole of a person's life. It gives the impression that there are thousands, millions of smart, decent, dedicated cops on every corner, but there aren't. I used to watch the Occupy debacle and get pissed off because I thought the Police were becoming the dangerous ones; they're not - what they're doing is. By eroding public good-will like this, at a time of increasing uncertainty, poverty, confusion and anger is putting us all at risk of legions of angry gun-toting idiots who may initially coalesce round a series of wildy unjust and stupid incidents like the one above, or an horrific and unwarrented shooting in the face, or a young college girl getting her head run over in a riot, creamy pink brains splattered down the road, or whatever it is, but a few days of entrenchment and a couple of related killings on either side and it's fucking game-over in every little town from the Grand Banks to Olympia harbor - there aren't enough Police to keep everyone safe if every 10th gun-owner has suddenly had enough and takes to the streets. Somebody somewhere is doing a shit, shit job of deciding what to instruct front-line cops to do. Every minor incident is a world-wide event in this soap opera.
I like liking cops, they come to my door at 4 in the morning if I hear someone breaking into next door. They'll put their lives on the line to protect my family and my stuff, and they couldn't be paid a fair wage to do those sort of things that I wouldn't be able to, but they're being abused by being made to behave like this, and that abuse is putting us all in danger. We'll see.- Considering this is likely what they're trying to do, the tactics aren't so stupid.Horp

‘God’-awful OWS mob steals sacred item from church
http://www.nypost.com/p/news/loc…There’s no longer room at the inn at a Manhattan church that’s sheltering Occupy Wall Streeters after a holy vessel disappeared from the altar last week.
When the Rev. Bob Brashear prepared for Sunday services at West Park Presbyterian Church on West 86th Street, he noticed parts of the bronze baptismal font were gone.
In a fire-and-brimstone message to occupiers later that day, he thundered, “It was like pissing on the 99 percent.”
In Brooklyn, at another church housing OWS protesters, an occupier urinated on a cross, according to Rabbi Chaim Gruber, who has angrily abandoned the OWS movement.
