NYC official: Protest cleanup is being postponed
AP/Yahoo ^ | October 14, 2011 | KAREN MATTHEWS

The cleanup of a plaza in lower Manhattan where protesters have been camped out for a month was postponed early Friday, sending cheers up from a crowd that had feared the effort was merely a pretext to evict them.

Deputy Mayor Cas Holloway said the owners of the private park, Brookfield Office Properties, had put off the cleaning, scheduled for 7 a.m. More than hour beforehand, supporters of the protesters had started streaming into the park, creating a crowd of several hundred chanting people.

A confrontation between police and protesters, who had vowed to stay put through civil disobedience, had been feared. Boisterous cheers floated up from the crowds as the announcement of the postponement circulated, and protesters began polling each other on whether to make an immediate march to Wall Street, a few blocks away.

Bloomberg let this get out of control, now we have a few hundred idiots camping out with no real message , bringing unsanitary conditions, fleas, lice, rats, etc into an area, , making the area look like a dump for tourists, costing police overtime.

Yea well done Bloomberg you idiot and why is the media following this FHS, seriously it’;s a handful of smelly people, hardly worthy of the news let alone national news.?

The City of New York is run by Communist sympathizing Cowards. No wonder that the Muzzies were emboldened enough to put a Victory Mosque at Ground Zero.

Let them sit in their poop until a Nor’easter blows in. Serves them right.

The owners of the park can raze the place afterward, maybe even get some “toxic waste cleanup” money from the Feds for it.

can you imagine the bedbugs there which plague NY City, the rats coming out at night, the lice, the fleas.

Truly sickening and these layabouts have no where to go , no job to go to , just a place to live and meet other like minded folk while asking for handouts and wallowing in their own filth and smell.

They really love sleeping in their own crap.

Bloomberg is the protestors' bitch.

Marx in the parks - keeping their pimp hand strong.

The fascist fuhrer of New York City gives his stamp of approval to the fascist mob at the park. How unusual.

"Yea well done Bloomberg you idiot and why is the media following this FHS, seriously it’;s a handful of smelly people, hardly worthy of the news let alone national news.?"

I think this is far more dangerous. This is the beginning of a national effort of the left to overthrow the existing social order of the US. The unions are starting to coalesce with the OWS crowd and I look forward to see the professional EEO victim crowd, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson types to start showing up as well. More will follow, like the environmentalists and the Hispanic illegal aliens advocates, etc. This is all being fanned by Obama and his allies to force "change" on America with a manufactured crisis. He will get his way or try and burn the country down IMO.

OK, then send them bedding with NYC bedbugs. The hotels can't seem to get rid of the infestation, why isn't the park a mass of red, itching demonstrators?

Bedbugs have some semblance of propriety.

Ewwwwwww

Exactly. And why doesn't he care? Because the voters don't care, either - or at least that's what he figures.

zero knows that this is make or break time.

He knows he is way high in corruption with his green energy, fast and furious and the economy is in dire mess.

All zero and his elitist fools have now is use the smelly layabouts to cause havoc and maybe bring down America as we know it.

The GOP needs to get AD’s out there using their signs and video’s saying is this the changed you voted for, is this the change of how the Dem party has turned out, commies and socialists.

The older Dems need to understand that their party of JFK is not the party they knew and now it has been corrupted by the fringe elements of the left

Bloomie doesn't have the balls of a gnat! If he had, he'd ring the plaza with tanker trucks and high pressure pumps and hoses and wash everyone away. Iphones, computers, EVERYTHING would be doused!
