MyFox Boston - More than 1,000 officers descended on the park shortly after midnight local time, issuing protesters with eviction letters and warning that they would be arrested if they remained. The cops were followed by sanitation workers, one of whom was overheard saying, "We're gonna disinfect the hell out of this place." The eviction letters declared that protesters should "immediately leave the park on a temporary basis so it can be cleared and restored for its intended use."
The day of reckoning has come! The revolution is here!
No, the Occupiers didn't accomplish shit, common sense has just finally prevailed and the park is being cleared out, Occupiers in major cities everywhere (and places like Worcester and Manchester too I guess) get ready, you'll be next.
Props to Oakland for being the only encampment to actually fight back and make shit difficult for the man, I can gaurantee sanitation department workers weren't walking through Occupy Oakland making jokes about "disinfecting the hell" out of their park. Sanitation workers out there probably had to wear full on riot gear, pretty sure you could have just lured the NY occupiers away from their camp with the promise of Green Tea and a free Phish concert just around the block, they'd have gone peacefully and willfully.
