No wonder the unions support it.
these thieves have found a way to milk the system in broad daylight.
The mayor needs to knock some heads together. It would cut down on the PD’s overtime and allow responsible business owners to come in and try to earn some money. It’s time to take out the trash mayor.
Some hippie Occupier on the Food Festivals Facebook page was being a smart @$$ about the event. She isn’t receiving much love from the locals who like the event and the park. See here.

Am thinking 'Election 2012'. . .where will they be? Blocking the streets? Or worse?
As 'Freedom of Speech' can extend from 'my hand' but not connecting with someone's nose; at 'what point', does this move from 'free' to being a public threat to the life - and liberty of other 'equal' citizens protected by our Constitution?
(And when their costs are bankrupting a city's/and it's taxpayers treasury?)
The Greenway Conservancy, which maintains Dewey Square, could be looking at its own staggering tab once the tent city is gone. It could cost as much as $125,000 to re-seed grass on the 25,000-square-foot plot of land, experts say.
The society should have demanded the squatters be forcefully removed from the property they are responsible for maintaining and, if I'm not mistaken, actually funded the construction of.
I have to say, this is the type of thing people don’t like.
Leftists tend to enjoy food festivals that support Kennedyesque charities in MA. It’s like closing the Brooklyn Bridge. Even with the support of the MSM, it’s hard to shove it down people’s throats and get them to say they like it.
I can tell you my lib family gets miffed when they lose out on their fancy city festivals. That’s what they pay taxes for, you know. The good life.
These idiots won’t quit. Their goal? Occupy a padded cell, which is where they belong to begin with. Cell block “I”, for ‘useful idiots’.
Occupy? Looks like economic terrorism to me.
Clearly; given our heightened 'security' MO's; public safetty is endangered as well. No?
Do not think these people have a right to extend their 'speech 'time per location; when their 'freedom'; becomes, something else entirely; not just a public nuisance; but a public threat.
The hippies just cost a LOT of people their LIVLIHOOD and JOBS!!!

Those in my immediate family and friends. I have 5 daughters, married with children. The oldest, no govt support directly. The next four, ALL get food stamps, govt medical care, and receive in the neighborhood of $8,000 tax "refund" every year. Approximately 5 times the amount they have paid in. My nephew, an ex con going to school, while supplementing his life with drug sales and dealing in stolen goods, has food stamps and free medical. My step son, trying to unhook himself from the drug monkey, gets free dental, and food stamps, along with attempting to get on Social Security disability. My sisters daughter came home after living away for a few years, she immediately went to DSHS, and applied for food stamps and got them, and is living with her working parents. I hear stories of trading and selling these food cards, so they are not necessary to keep people from starvation. The time is long past for us "ANTS" to cut off the "GRASSHOPPERS".
We begin by demanding that these OWS people be arrested, and fined the equivalent of the cost to police and clean their area. We arrest them everyday they are bailed out and returned. Milk whomever is bailing them out, the people protesting, and do so under vagrancy laws, and the fact they have no permit to do what they are doing. This is a test, just like when students occupied colleges in the 60's. If we allow the govt to do nothing, we will find that the govts will give in to any and all demands. . . . . Rant over.
Way to go, Mumbles. You've just given in to the political terrorists, and ruined what was likely the LAST nice weekend you'd have for tourism in that area of Boston. Why not just tell the 'occupiers' that someone else had reserved that area, and that they HAVE to move; helping them, if necessary. Move them to a vacant lot somewhere. They have the right to protest, but they DON'T have the right to disrupt commerce, and force others to see or hear them.
