NYPD clears out Occupied "Zone"

[EvilCat Breath]

They did it at 3:30-4:00 in the morning, which tactically makes sense. Get em while they are sleepy. Also it seems the occupiers were caught completely unawares.

But as of early this morning, it appears that even the Mayor’s patience had run out. A massive force of NYPD officers arrived in riot gear and formed a thick blue wall to clear the area. They were followed by sanitation trucks, with workers loading up all the detritus and debris from the encampment for a trip to the landfill. And since this was all taking place in the wee hours of the morning, the protesters and rioters didn’t have much warning or time to mount any sort of resistance. By the time the sun came up, Abolition Park was no more. (Gothamist)

Did the mayor even know?

Which will solve what? Nothing.

It will solve the issue of a bunch of assholes occupying a park that should be enjoyed by all New Yorkers.

They will simply move elsewhere and the problems remain.

Then maybe the mayor of that town will actually let police do their job and arrest them.

For peacefully protesting? Haven't we had this discussion?

Not a word about it on his twitter.

Then we move them out of there. Protesting doesn't mean you get to deny other people the use of park space.

Which will solve what? Wouldn't it be far easier to address the issues?

What's your address? They can camp on your front yard, OK

Sure. Though it would be kinda counter productive as I support their protest.

We’ve all had the conversation many times. You still don’t seem to understand that riots are not “free speech” and are not protected by the Constitution.

It didn't entirely solve the problem of violent anarchists stinking up the city, but it's a start.

Again, it solved the problem at hand. As for the issues, be specific.

You know what the issues are.

lol In other words, you have no idea what these "issues" are.

Against the rules of the Park. NYC parks are not to be occupied around the clock, you aren't supposed to put up structures in the park, and you are not allowed to vandalize buildings and structures around the park.

You know what the issues are.

We know what the excuses are, what we don't know is concrete concepts on what to do about it.

Being petulant children and taking over a park doesn't seem like doing anything constructive.

It has you discussing it.

lol Discussing what? Since there don't seem to be any concrete issues, there is nothing to discuss.
