Boston Herald- A confrontation with a knife-wielding junkie at Occupy Boston and rampant thefts have tensions simmering between the protesters and the homeless, prompting Mayor Thomas M. Menino’s predecessor to say it’s high time for police to clear the tent city. “It’s causing disruptions to public order,” former Mayor Raymond L. Flynn told the Herald. “They should have been given one day — 24 hours and that’s it. They have to be removed.”
It's about time. Frigen traffic jam on the way to my indoor soccer game last night really stuck in my craw...I'm not one of the 1% yet you're inconveniencing me all the same.
Look,if you guys (all the occupiers in all the cities) refuse to all organize and get a hall and start a real movement, the least you could do is organize and get together, and instead of these rinky-dink satellite protests all join forces, or as my friend put it via e-mail chain yesterday:
"those people are too fucking lazy to even drive to wall street and attend the real protest?"
Well said. The million man march worked, because there were a million fucking men. All in once place, not flung hundreds of miles from each other. You believe in the power of numbers yet you won't combine numbers...I mean, you guys are directly across from South Station...take that donation fund that you've gotten (I have no idea who the morons are contributing cash to these people but its ludicrous) and buy a bunch of Fung Wah bus tickets and head to New York. Solidarity, right?
