Right in the middle of NYU. I don’t know how things are now, but Washington Square Park was always a combination of mothers with strollers, hippies hanging out, tourists, students crossing from one class to another, and drug pedlars with established sites for selling their goods.

I suspect one intention will be to involve liberal NYU students in the protests, more cannon fodder for the cause.

Just a matter of time before one of these “occupations” turn ugly.

“Anti-greed protesters” my @$$. What are they protesting about? From what I’ve seen, they want the taxpayers to pay for THEIR “master’s degrees”. Why did they think they needed a “master’s degree”? TOO MAKE LOTS OF MONEY!!! Geesh! This isn’t rocket science. These bass turds are just PO’d that they haven’t made their first million yet.

Occupy Wall Street organizers told The Post they'll set up a second outpost there, in addition to Zuccotti Park, where protests started Sept. 16. “We are just expanding,”

Translation: We can't stand the smell anymore and so we will leave that mess behind and ruin another part of the City.

They belong on the WH lawn.

They are so hoping to get their "Kent State" moment to propel them into the big time.

“The anti-greed protesters plan to invade Washington Square Park today”

That is rich, calling them anti greed protesters. These people are the definition of covetous.They are demanding that which others have earned

[fightinJAG]

Why don’t they go to Lafayette Square across from the White House?

Then Michele could throw vegetables from her garden to them over the WH fence.

Or maybe Obama would let them in a few at the time to use the bathroom so they don’t have to do it on cop cars?

I’m so glad I live in the country.

[Sarah Barracuda]

We have those same protestors here in LA..they showed them yesterday on the news, a bunch of filthy hippies who have no lives..damn hippies

“Just a matter of time before one of these “occupations” turn ugly”

It’s already ugly. It needs to be treated like Chicago in 68. Gas them and bust heads

[Winstons Julia]

I’m praying that it doesn’t happen.

".....hoping to get their "Kent State"" The same thought came across my head. ♫ Tin soldiers and obama coming, four died in nyc....♪

[Beckett08]

Dang, that's what I was going to say..only more colorfully, and with more fecal matter.

Does Barry and the Rat Party really want to be so closely associated with these socialist loons? If so, watch middle America/Independents run away from them even faster.

I was there over the past summer (daughter/son in law lived a block away from Wash Sq). It was pretty much what you describe, with one exception, timed to my arrival on the day ‘same sex marriage’ became legal in NYS. Many the bride and bride, or groom and groom, did we see. Also, some very talented street musicians.

You have to wonder at what point NYU students who are paying tuition thru the nose are inclined to support this disruption? Are they paying out all that money so they don’t achieve career/financial success afterwards? For the most part they had to be achievers to be admitted to NYU.
