quade 4 #54 November 15, 2011 Quote(C)an you explain if it is a Privately held park "open" to the City or a City Owned Park? and what does that mean in regards to property rights trespassing etc? It is a "privately owned public space." These spaces are created in NYC as a trade off in zoning laws. Generally the trade is something like, you give us a park and we'll allow you a height variance in the zoning law. This is the case here. As such, the park isn't subject to city curfew which makes it actually the perfect place to stage an extended sit in. It's NOT trespassing to simply occupy the space and is completely fair game as a space to hold a protest. That's the PARK itself.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No it will probably be shrugged off because OWS has missed it's window of opportunity to make any sort of rational point, or effect change, and has simply become a nuisance to those nearby, and a pack of childish thugs to the rest of the country, thus ensuring that people just don't give a crap anymore.

kelpdiver 2 #64 November 15, 2011 QuoteQuoteyou do realise toilets flush don't you? then you can use them again... You do realize that your ilk are using other people's resources and leaving them worse. Get your own toilets and fill them and flush them. I'm sure you understand that there is more than flushing a toilet. Go to any public restroom and fund out how they are treated versus a private restroom. Your ilk are not content with figuratively shitting on people's property. It is now highly evidenced that they literally shit on it. It's the absolute disrespect for anyone else. The selfishness. The use of other people's things, leaving it worse, and then saying flippantly that "toilets flush." We know they have enough money in the original OWS group to afford the portapods...is the city or owner preventing it, or are they just cheap? DD's attitude is exactly why these camps are being removed in mass this week. Bad combination of selfish and self righteous. In contrast, interesting article today in Chronicle on a smaller protest going on in Oakland that takes a much friendlier approach to the city and the police, worries that the rabble will invade soon. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2011/11/15/MNJN1LV16U.DTL Those protests might get swept away with the shitters, or perhaps the movement will regroup and see that their's is the better way to keep this going.

It hasn't happened and won't because the >99.9 percent who aren't partying with them are just leaving them alone. The police are doing things to clear them out and clean up after them.

Gee. You worry about vigilantes and lawless mobs, yet "thank an anarchist" is a thread you started today. Make up your mind. Mobs and Anarchy was inextricably linked. Anarchists do not believe in the State or in laws governing conduct. Mob rule is anathema to government and law. In the event of violence and bloodshed, you can thank an anarchist.

Mayor Bloomberg said the city was trying to clarify the restraining order signed by Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Lucy Billings, a former civil liberties lawyer. In the meantime, Zuccotti — which briefly reopened after a scrub-down — would be closed to the public, Bloomberg said. Occupy Wall Street protesters had already moved to another public space, Duarte Square, at Canal St. and Sixth Ave., though it was unclear if they planned to set up camp there.

Supreme Court Justice Michael Stallman on Tuesday denied a motion by the demonstrators seeking to be allowed back into the park with their tents and sleeping bags. Police cleared out the protesters in a nighttime sweep early Tuesday. The judge upheld the city's effective eviction of the protesters after an emergency appeal by the National Lawyers Guild. The protesters have been camped out in privately owned Zuccotti Park since mid-September. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said he ordered the sweep because health and safety conditions and become "intolerable" in the crowded plaza. http://news.yahoo.com/judge-rules-against-occupy-wall-street-encampment-215554380.html This isn't exactly surprising...
