WALL STREET (WABC) — Despite warnings to leave, protesters remain camped out at Zuccotti Park in Manhattan’s financial district.
"Brookfield" is in reference to 'Brookfield Office Properties' owners of 'Liberty Plaza' Zuccotti Park which is PRIVATE PROPERTY.
The Occupy Wall Street protest enters its second week, as the owners of the park protest the protesters.
The demonstrators are protesting a financial system they call unjust, but they may have to find a new address soon.
The activists, protesting corporate corruption, may be getting an eviction notice. Demonstrators determined to “occupy Wall Street” have been camping out in Zuccotti Park for more than a week now
[The protest began on Sept. 17, 2011; dubbed "US Day of Rage". --Ed.]
The group made the park their base after the NYPD increased security around the stock exchange to prevent mass protests in the heart of the financial district.
The self-entitled, self-righteous punks apparently have no concerns over the fact that they have stolen the pleasure of the park from the general public.
The park is private property, and now the owners are trying to get the group to move on. Brookfield Office Properties says the swarm of protesters prevents the public from enjoying the space.
Flyers explain new rules for park use – no tarps, sleeping bags or personal property. The owners say they have the authority to eject people who do not comply with the new rules. [...]
Just to give you all an idea of the squalid condition of Zuccotti Park since the great unwashed mob invaded and subsequently occupied it, here are a few photos:
I think you get the picture…
(NYDailyNews.com) –Cops said they began making arrests when the march strayed into the streets and blocked traffic, and protesters ignored their orders to stay on the sidewalks.
“Those arrested were engaged in disorderly conduct, namely impeding vehicular and/or pedestrian traffic, and in some instances resisting arrest, inciting to riot, obstructing governmental administration, and assaulting a police officer,” said NYPD spokesman Paul Browne.
……
The NYPD issued a warning.“Protesters who engage in civil disobedience can expect to be arrested,” Browne said. “Those who resist arrest can expect some measure of force will used in making them.”
…ZERO respect for others, private property and the –law.
Update:
Don’t let that scene pull at your heart strings, because it is — A BIG FAT LIE.
Meredith Jessup at The Blaze reports:
Our friend Robert and his woeful tale have quickly become darlings of the liberal blogosphere and the mainstream media (and Iran’s Tehran Times!). Here he is in a picture posted at Buzzfeed — an image that perfectly captures him utilizing the biggest tool in the left-wing’s arsenal: the media.
According to the Daily Kos, Robert should be commended as “a patriot” for spelling out the reason people are protesting. “If you can watch it without being affected, you are as heartless as Dick Cheney,” the site notes.
There’s just one problem: Robert Stephens’ story is (surprise!) completely bogus.
Phone inquiries into the county property records & taxpayer services office reveal that the Stephens family home is not and never has been in foreclosure, that property taxes had been paid in full this year and the remaining balance on their mortgage for the half-million dollar home is less than one year’s worth of tuition+fees at their son’s law school.

Why don’t the brainwashed, public-schooled socialists squat on government property and demand it be given back to the people? Useful idiots, that is what their mentors (the communists) call them.

“Because the Only Good Progressive is a Failed Progressive”
You can tell a lot about the character of the people who participate in rallies and protests by the garbage they leave behind, or their general respect, or disrespect, for public and private property.
Have you seen the photos of the Mall in D.C. after the inauguration? It was a pig sty that took days to clean up. Compare them to the photos of the Mall after the 9/12 rally, it was left neater than the way they found it.
These are the very same people who will rally for the environment, then leave their gathering place a dump!
Yep! Have photos of both here:

LOVE the photo of the man lying down under the sign “A JOB IS A RIGHT” – yup, that’s right – lying on his ass waiting for things to be handed to him. That sums it up right there.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot help little men by tearing down big men.
You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.
You cannot build character and courage by destroying men’s initiative and independence.
And you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.
“lying on his ass waiting for things to be handed to him. That sums it up right there.”
How long had he search the system for another job, being told he was to over qualified, (or too old)? How long ago did his unemploymrent run out before he got to this point? How long after the unemployment ran out was he able to maintain his mortgage payments before he lost his house? How long has he been living in a homeless shelter?
Point being is you have no clue about this man’s circumstances to make comments such as yours.

Poor, misinformed righties. We know that you aren’t the brightest stars in the sky (I mean, you watch Fox News and read Michelle F****** Malkin, for Christ;s sake!), but–really–catch your collective breath and try to get your empty heads around the shenanigans on Wall Street. If you can’t comprehend that you are being f***** every day by this corpocracy we live in, then you are even dumber than the manipulators who use your blind obedience already think you are.
