Nonprofit wants removal of Occupy Boston camp
Boston Herald ^ | 11/18/11 | Boston Herald

Posted on 11/18/2011 8:54:13 AM PST by raccoonradio

BOSTON -- The nonprofit organization that oversees the site of the Occupy Boston encampment wants the protesters out.

The chairwoman of the Rose Kennedy Greenway Conservancy’s board says in a Tuesday letter to Mayor Thomas Menino that demonstrators have prevented the general public from enjoying Dewey Square Park and forced the cancellation of other events scheduled for the site, including an Oct. 15 food festival.

The Boston Globe reports that Chairwoman Georgia Murray also wrote that sanitary conditions have worsened, farmers selling food in the area have seen sales decline because of "noise, odors, and interference" from demonstrators, and the camp has shown "disturbing signs of drug dealing."

A spokeswoman for the mayor says the administration is monitoring the situation and there are no current plans to forcibly evict the protesters.

Boston's Mayor: Dumbass M. Menino.

Among comments: --Liberals turning on liberals, it doesn't get any better than this.

--If they close this park to the OWS gang, where will the misfits, malcontents, and moonbats go?

--With obama's best friend terrorest Bill Ayers involved in Occupy Chicago can the violence be far behind. This is nothing than a Democrat created joke to try to keep the pressure off the likes off obama and news of any off his dumb actions off of the nightly news. SEIU, ACORN, and Occupy Lizzy are all in the same boat and it's sinking. These clowns will not let this end nicely.

--Mother Nature will handle OWS... first blizzard and poof... they're gone!

The mayor, to misquote Obama, is "acting stupidly."

Howie List ping.

What if the tea party occupied:
—Louisburg Square Back Bay (a certain senator who lives there made them more a fire hydrant that was in front of
his mansion, lovey)

—Conti’s Liquors (and its do-you-know-who-I-am illegal alien uncle of the prez)

—liberal media (Globe, WGBH, etc.)

Not surprising. They hate farmers because they’re Capitalists.

As in NIMBY.

Exactly. Notice how the “Occupy” movement cropped up virtually the same week that Solyndra and Fast & Furious were finally breaking into mainstream coverage. Then the Dems all come out supporting the anarchists, and the Occupy movement, along with MSM coverage, grows, while the scandals take a back seat, even as more are added to the pile.

Now imagine the coverage if Bush were President, and a Tea Party movement arise at the same time as the sort of scandals the Obama administration is now tagged with. All we’d be hearing day after day is news of the growing scandals. And the Tea Party would be a rag-tag bunch of clowns not deemed worthy of coverage.

There is a long patch of public land along Commonwealth avenue in the Back Bay. Plenty of room for these people and I hope they relocate here.

A ton of well-to-do liberals in this upscale neighborhood. Would prove most comical.

The Herald should report it as it is. These leftist louts are the civilian security force that Obama wanted before he became president. Why isn't the conservative media reporting this. They are not going away before next year's elections. The Democrats will use every means to extend their mobocracy.

As in NIMBY.

It has nothing to do with NIMBY, it has to do with the occupooooopers pissing, pooping and destroying the property and the fact that the rest of us can't enjoy the park or use it for other things such as food festivals and other events that go on annually at the particular sight. The non profit sent the letter 10 days ago and mennino has chosen to ignore their wishes and has no plans to evict the occupooooopers. A group back in October had all the required permits, licenses, etc. (which are not free) for an event to be held in that area and the event was cancelled due to the vagrants occupying the area, enough is enough.
