Mayor Calls For Budget Cuts To Offset $Millions In Occupy LA Costs...

[paulitician]

Unfortunately this is happening all across the country. Taxpayers will be paying for these Occupy protests for many years.


The City of Los Angeles reportedly faces millions of dollars in expenses brought about by the Occupy LA movement.

City agencies have been ordered to calculate what was spent on the Occupy LA protests.

Repairs to City Hall’s lawn where the Occupy group set up camp on Oct. 1 will require an estimated $400,000. The police action to clear out the encampment on Nov. 30 cost more than $700,000.

Additional expenses are attributed to hauling away debris from the camp, and cleaning up graffiti that defaced City Hall marble walls and trees.

Mayor Villaraigosa says more budget cuts will be necessary to offset the costs.

What kind of budget cuts will be made? OWS really has sunk many of these cities who were already skating on thin ice. Once again the Taxpayers get screwed.

OWS has only helped themselves and their fellow far Left Socialists/Progressives. They have completely screwed the Taxpayers. Say what you want about the Tea Partiers,they didn't screw Taxpayers this way.

The idea of protests is to make the government hurt to make them change their ways.

It has been working. Just recently our city took out its speed cameras because of protests.

This Mayor especially,is a real wingnut. He fully supported OWS and now he's demanding budget cuts which will hurt other Citizens. It all gets back to the Left's bizarre notion that their rights are more important than other Citizens' rights. Now all Citizens will have to suffer because of OWS. This Mayor should be removed.

If he has to raise taxes and/or cut services, he will be.

See how that works?

The cities did not even follow the rules by demanding permits to organize nor follow up by dispersing the mobs when they broke the rules. Mayors have to go., Especially Bloomberg who let it go so long and other cities emulated. "God bless you," Pelosi said. Gag.

Haw many mayors actually did something to relieve the protests?

And what will be cut? Library hours.... Police services..... Paramedic services, 911 operations.

Some things are as predictable as the daily course of the sun

Mayors salary?

Not!

In the end,all Citizens/Taxpayers will now have to pay for this far Left Socialist/Progressive 'Generation Gimme' political agenda. The vast majority of American Citizens have had their rights violated by OWS. And this should be allowed to be remedied in Court. OWS should be required by Law to reimburse the Taxpayers. Their rights are not more important than other Citizens' rights. This stuff will have to be fought in court. The Taxpayers should not be forced to pay for the Socialist/Progressive political agenda. All American Citizens have rights.

The only thing the so-called protesters have accomplished is to shit all over the place and cost the cities where they shat money and bring headache. I have no idea what all these idiots were grumbling about, but they sure fucked with regular folks. They turned downtown LA into a fucking toxic site that had to be cleaned up by hazmat teams.
Gee, my life is so much more amazing because scumbags camped out, did drugs, and boned each other. Has there ever been such a meaningless, worthless, more costly bunch of protests, ever?
The people got occupied by scumbags. Way to stick it to the Man, assholes.

That is what the media has been telling us.

And our media would never lie, would they?

This stuff will have to be remedied in Court. The Taxpayers deserve their day in Court. All Americans have rights. OWS protester rights are not more important than any other Citizen's rights.
